You'll throw your mace away soon.

Oh...

it will reset to level 0.

I know. But I have some spare money anyway. But, as you said, that mace isn't worth it, right?

Unless you have a millions credits to throw away, it's not worth it.

Or just buy a good estoc and pay someone to IW it.

Why ? Because if a mace can hit 3k damage, an estoc with same stats can hit 6-8k damage.

Assuming 14 STR and END at level 340, a monster would have 60% PMI; FSM, with 25 STR and END, would need to be level 400 to reach 90%PMI

Maybe

Amnesia shards can be used to reset unlocked potencies you get from item world for a chance at better potencies. Nothing to worry about for another hundred levels or so. Axe is the best DW main hand for heavy users, with rapier in the offhand.

I still consider hallowed/demonic better than ethereal because featherweights are cheap as hell and you are guaranteed a good strike and the EDB bonus with holy is marginally useful for cure. So as long as you can IW it to 10, hallowed>demonic>ethereal. Not so sure about astral because the schoolgirls aren't weak to soul.

Also, ffs rending blow gives you permanent PA at my level so I really don't see what's so bad about mace apart from not using spirit for spirit stance.

rending blow works great with mace or scythe but it also takes a lot of turns for cooldown + regain OC. If you can do both before the next round then great. If you do too much or too little damage you mess up the timing.

But a high % PA estoc will let you clear rounds faster even if it has less damage. Faster rounds = less time for monsters to hit you. If you need the stun from a mace then use it but higher phy mit could also work.

Mainly because I use light armor, right now on IWBTH it's almost perfectly timed for 1 cycle clear round just as PA wears off and back to almost full OC. Maybe the rhythm will get screwed up later as damage increases or something, yes it's slower than heavy + estoc, but I don't think mace is unusable at higher levels. The first round is always a bitch though I'll admit.

That said, why is your OH prof maxed but not DW (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

because its easy to max OH using your fist + shield in a flimsy IWBTH IW. I wanted to get everything maxed by 400, DW should be maxed in a few days. Its at 348.43 now and this is after doing the first 4 schoolgirls once. I just don't take the time to play everyday or if I do its just a few arenas. Before I get back to the DW I need to do about 30 IW on some 1HD weapons before I work on the proficiency.

For funsies, I put on the best Plate of Protection I had horded away, and was surprised that it got my Physical Mitigation up to 78.4%. Is this low, or decent? Does it get a lot harder to it get it over 80%, 90%?

If I had an Ethereal Slaughter estoc, maybe I'd poke around a bit. But I don't. And I'm sure my 220 base STR and DEX won't help either. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

I think its .04 and .07 phy mit per point of STR & END. So your low str/end would have a large effect on your total phy mit when using plate armor.

for plate that isn't great but its not that bad, I use less phy mit for everything I do other then long grinds. It shouldn't be that hard for you to get close to 85% if you keep looking for upgrades.

any high damage estoc will do, 2 shards and its the same as an ETH one. I've got a few you can try if you don't mind using shards.

I've concentrated all of my experience into END/AGI/INT/WIS, so my base END right now is 350 (+18 from artifacts). But I plan to take my STR (and DEX) up to 300 very soon so that should help out physical mitigation a little.

Ooh... I totally forgot Voidseeker Shards were a thing! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) I have this estoc which isn't awesome but probably good enough with shards for unserious messing about.

A very nice staff with good MDB and very good holy EDB. May worth a small fortune.

I'm using mixed power/plate which gives me ~75% mitigation. I think the specific mitigation from heavy armor prof does matter a bit. It's always good to try entering an arena and feel if you like the damage output vs damage sustained though.

EDB = elemental damage bonus, which is on weapons with elemental prefix or phases.
Infusion will boost melee damage in the form of one additional elemental attack as the infusion's element, unless it's the same element as the weapon you're using (you won't have two equally-the same elemental strike effect on).

Infusion adds some EDB as well. I use Frost Infusions in the last 20 or so rounds of IWs to improve my odds of one-shotting rounds and for FSM.

But infusion still add another elemental strike for melee. You can have 3 elemental strike at the same time if you use DW.
