Hmm I thought infusions allows melee users to change their damage element and hence take advantage of elemental weaknesses?

Here's a cap of my Equip page as requested.

EDIT: If anyone wants that Titanium Estoc, just ask for, I'm was asked to not sell it.

They do. That doesn't mean anyone actually uses infusions.

And you really ought to swap in some evade cloth. Silk is always good, since it often has accuracy bonuses which is more beneficial at lower levels (before your base Accuracy is over 90%). It'll help with your Compromise and give you a bit more Avoidance. Overall, you'll get more benefit from Silk than the measly amount of defense you get from leather.

Basically, you would have been better off had you not given away/sold all of the stuff I bought you.

I honestly thought it was going to get deleted, if I had known I would have kept it.

Today I went back to some Arena challenging.
Everything up to longest Journey was pretty easy. Since I changed my gear bosses are not that scary anymore. Just 3 potions used.

Dreamfall on the other hand was just brutal. 3 Mini bosses each round just ate up my potion. The hit hard and have lot of HPs... one more item and I could have cleared it (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif)

So what is the most mana efficient way to deal with situations like this? (for a melee)

The most mana efficient way is to avoid casting cure, and to do that regen have to keep up the damage you suffer, so use haste, if it's not enough cast also weaken on 1 or 2 mini-bosses.
Shield it's not very effective unless you're a tanker, use draughts, they give more MP than potions.
I assume you use a rapier if not, get one it's very effective against mini-bosses, and try to kill the weakened mini-bosses first to avoid recasting weaken again.

Are you a pure melee?(I mean you don't want to be a mage)
If yes, start filling he SP-OC tanks to get more power, cuz that way you kill faster saving turns and taking less damage.

Invest in another item slot (:

I´ve got a question for you masters, is there a difference in the drops in the IW, depending on the quality of the item? e.g. is superior better than crude?
And if there is, do we have a wikipage about all quality levels or can someone post me a list (by quality)?

1) yes there is.
2) http://ehwiki.org/wiki/Equipment (No you can't get a magnificent item unless you have a mysterious box)

mysterious box

What is a mysterious box? And how could I get one... (until now I thought superior was the best type of item, THX for enlightening me!)

edit: I presume you mean a "rare drop"!

I was just kidding, they really exist, but they don't drop, they were gifts from Tenboro in the old times, read this.

Well I want this:

That's not a bad idea. I have a Mysterious Box that I'd love to trade for a Magnificent Ethereal Prism Rapier of Slaughter...

Oh and bdw, with 5 turns, 25% chance PA as well (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Managed to clear it this time!

Haste & Regen worked great. I rarely had to use cure this way.
I already use a rapier. Low damage but he has a good chance to proc PA and has a great parry bonus.

Yes pure melee. I will max some OC Tanks onc I have spare APs.

I personally would stick with the Cloth because I'm overly rigid like that and don't like the drop in evade (which is why I sold those Gauntlets in the first place; should have sold them directly to someone, but I wanted the money quick). But I recommend experimenting to see how much more (if any), you do with the Battlecaster. I'm not sure how Interference is calculated (before or after the other bonuses), but it may turn out that that 0.62 is more than it seems.

Not really, for that battlecaster piece being good it have to provide a better damage attack, without compromising the defense too much, which means in this case +5% magic damage at least.
It can be good if you got some gloves like mine because in this case my gloves offers less defense, but still I don't know if I want to lose power for it.

STR/DEX/AGI/END at your level, let INT/WIS behind but more points on WIS than INT, try to raise deprecating and supportive proficiency.

And my gear.
[attachmentid=5206]

Don't use gossamer unless you can't find good silk, switch the body with a very nice plate of protection, rest trade for silk.
silk-> +evade
plate-> +physical absorption +mitigation(look to the specific ones also) and less interference/burden possible, don't use chainmail.

Is this good?
