IW is biased towards whatever potency you've already unlocked so if you got Agility as your first you might wanna amnesia it right away.

How about if I've finished lv1/2 IW in Heroic difficulty but got no potencies at all ? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Will this continue to MAX level ? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)

What specific spells should I get then; I'm not going to bother training up my elemental prof if it is going to be useless at level 200+; so I'll just go either holy or dark right off the bat.

In fact, if I didn't want to completely respec my abilities; just train a dozen or so new points; what one or two spells should i grab if I just want to prof normal/hard?

And what would be some decent gear for that? (and is agi worth adding points to anymore?)

still looking for answers.

Frostbite: Post link of said leveled equipment with no potency.

Nightwishman: Depends on what you do. I'd say Pestilence or Ragnarok(maxed) and Purge(maxed) for dark, banish and pestilance(both maxed for holy) at minimum. Higher tier isn't necessarily better.

For prof training, remember that when your prof is below half your level in spell profs you get prof with every cast, so you will get 90% prof by the time you level a weapon to 6 on easy and do arenas.

Is that even possible?

How much PXP you're getting for playing on Heroic?

Hey guys, is it just me, or has HV been virtually unplayable lately? Never mind the lag, the bandwidth seems to be seriously horrible as well.

Mmmm seems fine to me

It did early this week. The lag was unbearable. But now it seems fine beginning yesterday.

Dammit, it must be the antipodean connection then.

Or maybe it's Chrome that needs a restart.

Try to play on Incognito mode (Ctrl+Shift+N) if it's not better then it must be your connection.

Does the speed start out normal and then slow down over time, or is it slow immediately?

alot questions here in this thread can easly answered with a link to the wiki,
its hardcore how many people dont know there to look. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif)

It's erratic;it could be both in a round; fine for about 5 turns, and then horrible the next.

Ah, that sounds like a network thing then. Usually I find that if the speed gradually slows down over time, it's indicative of a memory leak caused by your browser or a script or an extension.

this also happened to me the first time.
let me guess, you were leveling a weapon?

most likely you did get Archmage if it was a staff or Butcher/Swift Strike if it was a melee weapon and you didn't notice the increase.
i didn't know back then that you could look at what potencies you get by hovering your mouse over the item and pressing C (disable popup block) or going into the forge, selecting the item and then "show upgrades".

Yeah, it's half of one and half of the other. In incognito, it was really fast... for about 10 rounds, and then it's back to erratic performance.

I think I may need to update HVSTAT, and hopefully the resets actually WORK this time.

First off, I have never played anything other than mage on HV. I have 0 prof in non-mage combat skills...

So I've recently discovered videos on youtube of lvl 300+ players doing IWBTH runs.

Mage IWBTH T&T:
-http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CuFZTPQwM9k
Melee(sorry can't tell if its light, heavy or what):
-IWBTH T&T http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2VkHsoQvbA

I always thought the benefit of maging was aoe/damage output. but the melee seemed?? to be damaging the whole mob at once, except they were practically invincible(hp doesn't move).

I've pretty much outgrown my gear, but before I sell the house for new mage gear... what would the be the benefits of maging?

I mean as a mage, I can't ever see myself getting ANY slashing/percing/crushing mitigations, or 80% phys/mag mit.
If a mage is a glass cannon, then that type of melee would be what? immortal machine-gun?
a ton more durability, slightly less damage?

does melee suffer form the same MP issues?

2H melee have domino strikes; high PMI, regen II, Protection, Haste and whatever the last effect is, etc.

This is a Light Armour (Kevlar + 1 Shade) 2H Melee build. It featured the following qualities (at the time the video was posted):

- [edit; added] 2H Domino Strikes hit a max of 4 enemies on either side of primary target (i.e. you can hit a maximum of 9 enemies per successful physical blow)

- Estoc procs Penetrated Armor, reducing monster's GENERAL PMI to 0.

- Ethereal weapon does Void damage, bypassing monster's SPECIFIC PMIs (effectively 0).

- Battlecaster weapon increases Magic Accuracy (obsolete ones did MDB, I think), but most importantly, Mana Conservation (reducing mana cost quite considerably).

- Kevlar Armor has damn near Plate-level PMI, but at much, much lower Burden/Interference.

- Shade increases Evade, has ADB and no Burden whatsoever.

Heartseeker increases Crit by 10%, Accuracy by 25%, and damage by 25%. Regen II basically tops off HP every turn.

In other words, you had a Level 300+ guy with Legendary gear (20% boost on all stats), whose weapon effectively did 100% damage against ALL enemies, hits (and crits) damned near all the time, in a time when damage avoidances was much, much lower than it is today (thanks to all the Chaos Tokens pumped into today's mobs), whose mana consumption was probably at 100% (if not lower) thanks to low Interference and mana conservation, and whose PMI was damned near Protection Plate. Oh, and where Regen II worked EVERY turn.

If his spell profs were anywhere near his level, on Channeling, Regen II would have lasted 150+ turns, Heartseeker OVER 500!

You can't pull it off today. Half the time, you would have the damned mob Evade or Parry, their specials would hit like a 10-tonne truck, Domino Strike's been nerfed, Estoc's been nerfed, Heartseeker's been nerfed, PMI from stats has been nerfed, Regen II's been nerfed, damned near everything's been nerfed.

No, I know someone who can currently do it even quicker than Evil Scorpio could then. He has a godly estoc though and great gear. Even I can do IWBTH trio in about 20 minutes with my estoc with my less than perfect gear. DW takes 25-30 minutes (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) .
