What is a good script for showing base stats of an item to compare to the equipment range chart and a quick tl;dr (or detailed instructions link) on how to use it?
I've tried using Base Stat Display and HentaiVerse Equipment Comparison on the wiki but neither of them seem to change anything and I don't see anything change on any page or pop-up.
Some other scripts on the page I use work fine, using grease monkey.

Did you try pressing Q, W, E, R keys?

Mage AOE spells are gonna get nerfed so you can't oneshot a mob each round.
Mages aren't gonna be able to normalfest like usual anymore.

False - according to plans mages won't be nerfed damage-wise by significant amount. Instead, normal grind itself will be nerfed through adaptive drop rate.

That did it, thanks. Would be nice if people attached a usage .txt file or put instructions in the comments at the top of the script.
More questions, does the numbers of rounds in an arena effect the drops(clear and or normal per round drops) in any way or just the difficulty when clearing it?
Do further rounds in GF/IW drop better stuff or is it just the crystal multiplier that is affected?

I've added a link in wiki to the manual. Hopefully this will solve the problem.

It depends on the 'effect' you're asking. The bonus mostly affects the arena clear bonus, but for other drops it's not affected.

Further rounds in GF/IW will have better loot bonus, but that's not a huge boost.

SPoison > As far as I know, you only need to train 2H up to 100 prof to reach your full stats and train DW for the prof bonuses who add up anyway (as in the wiki : + 50 Physical Base Damage + 0.2% Attack Accuracy + 0.25% Attack Crit Chance).

Personally I've chosen to start forging things I don't want to change until further notices. All in all I can still play with it good and I don't see why it should change drastically in the futur. But then, I'm not a hurry player. I try to spend very much little credits on it though, keeping it for training actually.

I've been going at the HV for the longest time without any help and I've finally reached level 200. Now that my curiosity is starting to peak, I just watched a video of a lv 302 Godslayer absolutely demolishing enemies on IWBTH, no scrolls or using items, and I started wondering a few things.

Here's the video so that you can see. There may have been changes to HV after this video was made.

Durability is killing me in prolonged battles. I can't seem to sustain many rounds before having to resort to items, of course which means I'll be defeated soon. How does one create endurance for 10-100+ round battles? The farthest I've ever gotten on IWBTH was about 28 rounds, using every item I had. Please help me understand.

I also noticed in the video that the player had several auto-cast slots going AND regenerating MP over time. Aside from the hath perk, how does one optimize the use of protective magics? Also, how can I better utilize my mana consumption? I haven't maxed all of my health/mana/spirit tanks yet, but it's fairly decent for what it is.

On a much lesser note, I noticed the interface is very different than the one I've used on both Chrome and FF. I'm curious to know how I can use that version myself.

My version.

A good physical damage mitigation first. Time was easier before last patch because there was a reduce in the burden stat given with heavy armor wearer.
Or a good evade/parry chance, you can get those with light armors and dual-wield/niten.

The key's also about how he consume is mp with Innate Arcana and the fact he's using an estoc to butch the enemies quickly (simple math, less time spent killing those, less hits on you).

For the interface it's on the second part of the forum, I don't remember the name of the thread but it's not hard to find it with a search.

You should max out every HP/MP (and SP I suppose too) at every tiers.

That youtube video was Evil Scorpio a number of patches ago. His mana consumption is kept in check by IA 3 and the fact that he's using Kevlar (low Interference, high PMI, but no ADB) and a Battlecaster Estoc (adds Mana Conservation). Back then, the PMI formula for players gave higher results for players above 250+, and Estoc's Penetrated Armor went straight to 100%, rather than 33% at a time.

It also helps that he's one of the better Light Armor players out there, and has probably the best Kevlar suit in the game.

Thanks Falbala. I primarily use a heavy armor-niten setup. I have a shield armor set and I've stopped using power armor in favor of plate armor's physical mitigation. Though I'm not sure if that's the wisest thing to do.

I haven't gotten around to seriously buffing my hath perks (just have a lot saved up) but I do have Innate Arcana at lvl 3. Now help me understand this, how does particularly having an estoc favor over other types, say a mace. I suppose it's to do with being able to kill them quicker (PA)?

I'll give that a search.

And, all of my HP/MP tanks are maxed @Lv 200. All but two SP/OVC rows also have been maxed.

@PK678353 Yeah, no kidding. I was running a shade armor-high parry/evade/resist build, but that still didn't save me from taking massive damage. I do suppose level 250 is where we start seeing a change in the game's dynamics?

do elemental strikes pop the status effects from ele/holy/dark spells?
for example, does dark strike pop breached defense?

Yes. Two handed weapons can splash damages and increase the effectiveness of it too (well I suppose you know about it if you Niten).

In my opinion, HV can only be reduced to the base of it : numbers. It all comes to them and the idea is to max out what specific things you want to, suited to your play style, what you like, and what you want to achieve. If I would point out a specific cap when my game really went up, it's when I reached 100 and the Spark of Life.

Well yeah, I know that much. But why an estoc?

Niten gives me a good counterattack, however it's strictly slashing damage. No penetrated armor or other quick way to demolish my enemies.

Dare I say another perk was when we obtained Spirit Shield. Some monsters could pack a wollop, and a group of these could K/O you in just three or four turns.


I'm leaning towards armor quality, which is why Evil Scorpion was able to do so well. I've also checked WTS which has some good items for sale. Which bring me to my next question(s)...

Does anyone know how to obtain Magnificent-Legendary equipment or better on your own? Do these need to be forged? Where are they found?

Because estoc's proc is best in game right now.

As for Mags/Legs, you have 2 choices. Pray with trophies, or grind everything on IWBTH and with high LOTD.

Nope, I don't have too many good drops worth selling + each arena guarantee me that damn 1k + c from each round cleared. I'm low on ED right now after the event (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif).

+1.

I quit after 400 rnds of Normal grindfesting yesterday. I yielded no artifacts but a bunch of crystals, and lousy equip drops, and absolutely meager Exp, compared to arenas. I will go back to doing arenas only on IWTBH. My training is a little more of half of the max of each (scavg, lotd, archaeol, etc). Personally, I think what ChosenUno says is correct: you will get great drops doing anything on IWTBH. Normalfesting just isn't cutting it for me.

Would this cost more than 2.408C if it wasn't in the bazaar or is it the set price?

Conversely, it looks like the first script for displaying base stats for equipment here isn't working https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=38143

And for this one, does Hit Proc Damage refer to DOT or chance to hit?

@LeFlame-Befoe
I'd advise using HentaiVerse Equipment Comparison on the wiki. Gives the base stats and then some. I couldn't get grumpymal's to work either.

It would cost less, pretty much a junk staff.

Wow. Thanks for the usage guide. I already had the script but then didn't know what to do with it so it did nothing for me.

Good thing I was the one that put it in the bazaar then. Thanks.

Can a kind soul tell me:

How do you find the base ADB of a weapon or piece of armor?
