[X] My Assistant

Shrining for 2h or maybe staff is usually recommended for noodles over heavy, as the appropriate quality is worth far more(and more needed to obtain) in the case of a right right roll, but if your heavy armor sucks heavy isn't such a bad choice, 1/12 chance of protection suffix after all.

Great, now I accidently reforged my Estoc that I just got to level 2 : /

strategy is max oc, wait for PA, use iris strike -> hit 4 times to build OC => use Backstab => hit 3 times, activate Spirit Stance (when counter is 1) => when counter is zero, use Frenzied blows.

How can you get in 10 actions before PA expires? Maxed action speed/slow on FSM?

Why didn't you lock it?

Temchy: You can get 11 actions before stun expires with 1h to permastun FSM if you wear light.

What's locking?

I don't; it needs an off-hand proc at least once after iris strike (depending on your duration). Crit w/ my Dw / light armor prof and no SD is 45% so w/ heartseeker ~55%. If my profs and gear were better, it'd be even higher.

I have a 25%/6 turns slaughter and a 23%/5 turns slaughter; I'm using the latter cuz damage is higher. With the duration I very rarely miss the spirited dw chain due to losing PA. I've always had an easier time with them than using any sort of 23%/3 turns or 17%/5 turns balance rapiers.

Clicking on the lock icon until it glows yellow, I guess.

Makoto: The lock button next to equip makes you unable to sell, moogle, salvage or reforge it. If you have item equipped all expect reforging applies. Feature is most useful for sell all button usage. There's no time delay to lock or unlock sth.

Well, that's good to know I guess.

Not going to mess with IW for a while though. It's not been going so well.

Even with the new patch?

Well, was doing okay until I wiped out all of my progress.

Meh, 2 levels has less rounds than half your daily arenas. Your choice but the amnesias are the bigger loss here tbh.

Is there a battle mode that has the best chance of dropping tokens? Apart from Ring of Blood, that is.

Arenas. It's called Arena Token Bonus.

I thought that was so, but I didn't see that mentioned in the wiki article on battle/battle modes. Should have looked at the Arena article. Thanks.

Yeah, but arenas gives more XP, credits, and tokens.

Does putting more AP in absorb increase the chance it will proc or is it 75% right off the bat? From its description it says more points increase the duration but when cast it says it is permanent till it procs. Also do more points added into it increase how much mp you can get back once proced?

It is 15% per AP, up to 75% for maxed.

Additional AP increases the MP absorbed by 12.5% per additional point for a maximum of 7.5% to 15% of your base max MP.

??? You can't reforge it to level 2. It's either all or nothing.

I misinterpreted what you wrote I think. You got the weapon to level 2 then reforged.

Even on easy with a terribad weapon, it can't be more than about 35-45 mins of palming the numpad to get a weapon back to level 2. I have to resort to this beauty for my IWing and a 170 rounds averages for me approx. 15-25 mins depending on my state of consciousness.
