You really ought to read the release notes. And Artifacts are discussed in the wiki.

Anyone care to clarify this Grindfest limitation to me?

There is a limit on the number of Grindfests a player can start in a sliding 24-hour window. You can start one new Grindfest every hour and one new Grindfest battle every three minutes, averaged over 100 hours. You can do as many Grindfest as you like in one hour, you are not limited to 1 per hour, its the average over 100 hours that matters. Basically, as a rule of thumb, you can do about 24 Grindfests a day.

I've only played one Grindfest session in the past 24 hour period, but it was about 4000 rounds. Now I've been locked out. Is this saying my total number of Grindfest rounds over the past 100 hours cannot exceed the rate of 1 round every three minutes? I think this wiki entry could be worded a little more clearly.

I think that incomprehensible description came directly from the horse's mouth, but I can't find where it was posted and nothing I found illuminated the issue any better.

Pack of questions for you (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

1. Which aura is more useful – green or yellow?
2. Does power give any benefit in battle aside from spirit points? Sthg like every point of power increases your dmg by 1% or anything like that..?
3. Does chances for overwhelming strike and/or counter attack from shield depend on shield proficiency?
4. It is said that I won’t encounter any legendary monsters on lower lvls of difficulty. But can I still meet mini bosses like White Bunneh or Mithra while playing on cake?
5. Difficulty lvl affect quality of dropped equipment. Quantity as well?

Thanks in advance

1. Which aura is more useful – green or yellow?

Over the long term, yellow.

2. Does power give any benefit in battle aside from spirit points? Sthg like every point of power increases your dmg by 1% or anything like that..?

It allows you to imbue more karma and tag/expunge for more in the galleries. Nothing else in regards to the HV.

3. Does chances for overwhelming strike and/or counter attack from shield depend on shield proficiency?

Overwhelming strike has nothing to do with shields.
Counter does.

4. It is said that I won’t encounter any legendary monsters on lower lvls of difficulty. But can I still meet mini bosses like White Bunneh or Mithra while playing on cake?

White Bunneh and Mithra aren't mini-bosses.
Manthras, Mindrapers, etc. are mini-bosses.

5. Difficulty lvl affect quality of dropped equipment. Quantity as well?

Some people say yes. Some people say no.

I did one the other day but when i was done i didn't check if i could do another. but mine was as over 2 days, I started it before the dawn did 2500 rounds and went to sleep, then came back to finish it. before that i hadn't done a grindfest in weeks, but when I started that one i had to do that word thing before i could start.

For all intents and purposes, Item World is just a second Grindfest mode since I was only using it to farm items and artifacts. It seems to be giving me artifacts a lot fast too, but it's probably just a coincidence. Oh, and when did IW on normal get changed to a guaranteed level up? I haven't done any items on normal in a long time, but it used to almost never level up.

If I recall what i've read, GF is less exp but the drops are better then doing itemworlds. But the monsters aren't as hard in IW. But then the item used and difficulty level effects what you get/fight in the IW. The GF I did the other day gave me an artifact every 475 rounds and a equipment every 63 rounds. You've trained more then me so your drops should be better. The number of artifacts I get doing IW is close to that I guess, sometimes i'll get 1/item, 3/item or 0/item. But an artifact every 500 rounds is about average (i've got 5/10 Archaeologist)

Boggyb made a post with % of an item going up for the difficulty level a few days ago in this thread. Doing the items on normal is +1 with change of +2 as you go up in levels, battletoads is +2 and a chance of +3. It been like that for most of the time i've been playing. So I don't know when it would have changed.

Were you able to get back into a grindfest after the 100 hrs thing?

Nope. I did the 4000 rounds in just a few hours time, so it could be days before it lets me back in Grindfest.

So I've come to the part where everythings alittle to hard to do like IW has gotten harder, I can barley get to round 5 on GF, and Random encounters hit me for 90+ each.
So Here's my stats what am I doing Wrong or what should I do to improve.

Sorry. Heavy armor is correct.

You don't have to go all heavy. I never did unless I was cake grinding for proficiencies or artifacts.
Otherwise I've always preferred a mix. Or silk.

Anyways I wasn't going to comment on equipment. You can always upgrade equipment.
Abilities look good.
Auras too.
Primary Attributes. Almost perfect. I'd make a slight change though. Keep STR, DEX, AGI, END at your level as you do. But I noticed your INT is higher than WIS by 5 points. Make that the other way around. WIS is more important. More WIS = more MP.
Especially since you're melee and have heavy equipment. You should definitely priorize WIS over INT.

Otherwise you aren't doing anything wrong I guess. You should get Haste and Poison asap though. (And still HP/MP tanks.)
You'll need them for bosses and anything beyond that. That said sooner or later you should get most of those supportive/deprec spells. (Haste, Poison, Shadwon Veil, Weaken, Bewilder)

Your WIS is piss awful.
Let me inform you of a rule when it comes to the HV: EVERYONE NEEDS MANA. EVERYONE.

Also, linking equipment does more good than linking your equipment page.

For all intents and purposes, Item World is just a second Grindfest mode since I was only using it to farm items and artifacts. It seems to be giving me artifacts a lot fast too, but it's probably just a coincidence.

That's because there's more mobs per round than you have in arena. More dead mobs = more drops.

Your WIS is piss awful.

Sorry about that
