5. X-Nerf - to make things easier

X-Nerf

5 AP or 1 AP ?

I use X-nerf too in Hourlies, at 5 ap just because I don't want to be bothered.

1 ap is all you need. 2 max.

Stfu Regen II, sorry for typo ><.

X-Nerf

X-Nerf takes some time to cast, so I prefer to be a bit "tougher", before I dare to cast another time consuming spell. BTW up to 200 lvl you don't have access to X-Nerf (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif).

1 ap is all you need. 2 max.

I put 5/5 as later on you don't have too many crucial skills to put your AP in. (maxing out Exp tank and later some resistances as these are the only one to put some AP)

Meh, damn squishy mages, I cast anything I want, at anytime I want (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) .

i thought you didn't even try to avoid triggering SoL. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

i have a lot of trophies, what should i shrine them for?
or should i just sell them to HTTP/309? XD

IA Spark so it will recast without me doing anything right after being triggered, and it will.

I don't have IA, but isn't Spark a poor choice for it? If you ran out of spirit it would still cast it and act drain on resources right?
Then again, you may be referring to hourlies only and swap for IW/arena/GF I suppose.

I try, but from my experience it's very difficult to avoid triggering it relying only on avoidance (~ 30 %) as my first and the last line of defense (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif). I'm not sure how much of magical damage gets migrated (53 %), but most of hits which I get are physical nature (can we has permanent Cloak of the Fallen ).

It's up to you. I sell them as I have bad experiences with Snowflake and trophies (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) .

actually i think spark is the best spell to use with IA: casting it normally you pay the mana cost for the full duration even if it gets triggered right away. really mana efficient with IA.
as a mage you only burn spirit using spark.
also i always take a godly spirit potion with me.
if you run out of spirit you have bigger problems than paying the upkeep of spark...


EDIT: btw typo, i meant HTTP/308

IAs are overrated, they fail to cast spells when you need it that's why I don't use it for crucial spells like SoL. Losing Shadow Veil and waiting for the next wave of monsters is not fun for a mage (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) .

Come on, Spirit Shield is fine too, especially 1 on 1 like when you fight FSM, but it's a horrible spirit sucker when you have to face many monsters ><.

you only need to be a bit careful to avoid that.
IAs let you save mana once you get more than the first level and also let you save casting time.
as a melee IAs are even more useful because you won't have buffs expiring during your spirit stance making you waste 10 OC to recast them.

i'd like to get up to IA5 but i have higher priorities for my hath/credits right now.

No idea how does it work for them. Anyway, I don't plan to invest hathes in IA unless they change their mechanic to something more reliable.

I just hope, we will be able to upgrade monsters' physical migrations like it's not with mages (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif).

useless.
ethereal weapons, hollowforged potency and voidseeker shards make physical res non consequential.

Ok, them I want (relatively cheap) Void magic (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif).

BTW Is there any info about chances of getting HG materials from salvaging various quality items ?

Not happening, sorry. (I have no idea what new soul is, just remember seeing this on the wiki)
I don't get why mages don't have some form of void damage or slash and crush available. While I get it would be obscenely expensive, monsters can have elemental resistances max out at 100 right? Seems a bit silly that mages would be stuck with Magic Missile and or Imperil or smacking them with a stick if that happens. I guess it hasn't happened yet or isn't common enough for mods to worry about.

At higher levels you have access to the whole range of high tier spells and there's no monster resistant to all types of magic. The pain in the butt is to figure out which one you need to use.

Couldn't they be with half a trillion crystals?

There are scripts to help I guess, but yeah I chose melee because playing elemental rock paper scissors takes too much focus when I'm just try to read a VN/watch a show.
Must suck to be forced to scan monsters and waste turns all the time if you don't record it or have a script.

Resistances max out at 75.

I used to die because I ran out of mana and spark dropped.

Nowadays I use that silver/green bar as my mana indicator.

Does Pierce Armor increase the amount of damage an Ethereal Estoc will already do to monsters? Or does the Void damage already deal the max?
