Difficulty adds a modifier to drops. You get more credits and a better chance at loot, but don't hold your breath.

No, it means the loot generator is shit. You're more likely to get good quality loot, but it doesn't mean they'll be good.

Does that good quality loot include Ring of Blood tokens? I only have 2 tokens left now and I've been doing Arenas every day and hundreds of IW rounds and I only got a Healing token to show for it. I did Arenas on Normal and IW on Cake so should I increase the difficulty to get more RoB tokens?

IIRC, Tokens that aren't Token Bonuses fall in the Special category of drops during calculation, and I don't think the modifier affects that. And the ratio of Blood to Healing is supposed to be something like 3:1.

Yeah, Blood Tokens are supposed to be rare so you can't farm Legendaries/Gods. I should probably spend the hundred or so I've got lying around. Maybe if I turn in enough God Trophies, I just might actually get one useful thing.

Yes, but you can only beat them once per day, so only 3 God trophies per day (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

5:1 ratio? Its more like a billion to one odds for me. I swear I have more artifact drops these days than RoB tokens. It sucks you can't sell Blood tokens. I would love to buy a few from that stash of a hundred you have. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

maybe your Archaeologist level is so high that it affects the drop ratio significantly...

Spirit-Ward imbues dark damage mitigation. I have:
Cloth armor proficiency: 175.00 Light armor proficiency: 166.67
Cotton Cap: +19.09 dark mitigation Leather Breastplate: +23.39 Leather Gauntlets: +14.29 Cotton Pants: +16.08 Leather Shoes: +15.16
Every 100 proficiency generates +10% so:
Cloth bonus: +17.5% Light bonus: +16.667%
(19.09 + 16.08) * 1.175 + (23.39 + 14.29 + 15.16) * 1.16667 = 102.97
Over 100 yet the Flying Spaghetti Monster does a little damage when he hits, so...
Is there something wrong with my math, or, Is there a maximum limit for armor mitigation, or, Do his hits have a dark and a physical component, or, Does each piece of armor mitigate separately instead of combined?

question: is shield useful? my supportive proficiency is now at 6.26 and shield only absorb 5.5 so i can't really tell if it is useful. shameless begging: anyone have a piece of useless superior equipment to spare/lend for item world grinding? i am currently still using a lvl 18 Superior cotton robe of protection ( http://hentaiverse.org/pages/showequip.php...;key=1dcd883c6c ) and can already get to the last round nine of ten attempts. rant: argh... lost 1400c on two arena challenges because i kept missing for some odd reason!

Something's wrong with your math. Mitigation is multiplicative, not additive. There was just had a big discussion about it in one of these threads. It even shows you on the Equipment screen what your total mit is. Sonic's Calc even has a feature that lets you calculate it.

Its more efficient than casting Cure alone. Even more efficient when you get IA. QUOTE(hentai_fusion @ Aug 8 2010, 04:38)  rant: argh... lost 1400c on two arena challenges because i kept missing for some odd reason!
Its called being low level.

Innate Arcana. Its a Hath Perk that lets you put Shield, Barrier, SV, and/or Haste on autocast. There are 4 levels and each level reduces the cost of the spells. With IA 4, I basically have Shield on all the time for the cost of my battle regen.

Heya. I'm still working out my shortcomings you guys pointed out earlier in this thread. And I'll start by getting to level 110 to correct a mistake I made when I hit level 100.. I didn't notice my Aura level increased and wasted my aura point to unlock an aura I don't use.. what a waste.. I could have enjoyed another 1% evade instead,
Anyways.. I need some advice on which abilities I should unlock next:
I have 22 AP left.. plus the 6 AP I'll collect until I reach 110.. Now subtract 1 AP for Scroll Slot and 11 AP for Nova, Flames of Loki and Mark of Muspell. That's 16 AP I can allocate.
[attachmentid=5640]
(Trainer: Ability Boost 40/200 - 12,931 Credits; this is getting expensive)

Tier 1 Fire, Tier 2 Elec (or tier 1 if you're good) are all you need. Why would you get a tier 3 spell before the lower tiers? Might want absorb.
