QUOTE(PK678353 @ Jun 7 2013, 15:57)  Sort of. It is (generally) the most advantageous ordering of Absorb/SS/SoL. There are corner cases where you would prefer SoL first (attacks that will kill you whether SS dampens it or not) ,though they are less corner now.
Lets say you have 10,000 HP, Spirit Shield augmented to work at 25% damage, and you have Frost Spikes, SS, SoL, and Absorb up.
Now you get hit with a 40,000 HP SP attack from FSM. First, it checks if you evade/block/resist it. If you do, no damage is dealt and FSM takes 5 from the spikes. If the attack connects, Absorb gets a shot at it. If it procs, the spell is absorbed, you gain MP, and Absorb is dropped at end of turn. If the spell gets past absorb, SS takes it and you would take 2500 HP and a lot of SP as damage. Since you didn't die, Spark doesn't proc. Spikes will now kick in and reflect some damage back at FSM.
Thanks. That was informative. QUOTE(rayjack @ Jun 7 2013, 16:46)  Hi I'm starting play this, Should I put more stat on Agility or endurance?
For now, your priority should be Strength & Endurance. Play a little bit more and level up to gain more experience so you can can increase Dexterity & Agility as well. Although Intelligence & Wisdom is less important for melee, it's not recommended to leave it at zero. Just don't put too much experience on it. Also, don't use Elemental spells. Focus on Deprecating & Supportive magic. This post has been edited by hujan86: Jun 8 2013, 01:49

He can still make over her stats by decreasing STR and END by 5 each and put some on other stats.
Btw, is it just me or after level 200 the exp gain is starting to be a little static (the amount of exp I got kinda same) so it's a little more difficult to level up now.
Btw, at my current level, I could only do Arena on nintendo difficulty at maximum with 12 item slots and that's only for arena with a maximum number of 8 monsters (except last round), highest arena was T&T that I barely cleared it. I wonder if my playing style is kinda wrong.
On IWBTH difficulty, I could only withstand for around 30 rounds. Some monsters can crit me for 9.5k damage (even higher than my whole HP =="). Never tried BT though.

If the spell gets past absorb, SS takes it and you would take 2500 HP and a lot of SP as damage. Since you didn't die, Spark doesn't proc. Spikes will now kick in and reflect some damage back at FSM.
To be more precise, SS will absorb damage beyond 2500 HP if your MAX HP is 10,000 HP. If you're on 10,000 HP and your max HP is 20,000 HP, you'll be hit for 5,000 HP. So, if your maximum HP is 10,000, and you have 2,000 HP left, you. will. die. And if you had *just* enough SP for SoL to trigger *before* SS absorbs the hit, you. will. die. for. good. Although, you know, it would be interesting if SS absorbed the damage beyond 25% of current HP. It won't exactly be OP, because the hit to your SP would be tremendous (this patch, anyway). It would make for some interesting builds and strategies, though, maybe.

QUOTE(ttjj @ Jun 6 2013, 17:19)  as a heavy with absolutely no deprecating prof, its being extremely hard to get through the second RingOfBlood, even on normal difficulty (the boss's spells usually manage to 1hit me). about what level will i need to be before being able to clear this?
Hi i've only been playing the hentaiverse a lot since the patch hence my advice would probably be of relevance. I remember hitting the ring of blood probably around level 100, most of the time I have no problem clearing them. Right now I am not able to do Invisible Pink Unicorn because the I got 1 hit KO. Anyway about the second ring of blood, back then I when I clear it I should most likely have about 40-50% physical mitigation and probably 10% less for my magical mitigation. As for my build I focused on strength then endurance and dexterity. Ability wise HP Tank to max possible at my level and heavy armor proficiency quite close to level. Also note that I have pretty decent level of support magic proficiency. I usually start off by casting protection then regen then keep attacking until I have about half my hp left and cast cure. It worked so far for all the ring of blood battles until Invisible Pink Unicorn.

You really need at least SoL if you kinda worried. SS is better, but I think you must level 150+ maybe.(I got SS after level 200 because I didn't have enouth supportive proficieny, SS needs 110 supportive proficiency to unlock).
I would say always keep haste+protection+regen+shadow veil every time.

As heavy melee without depr. prof, for any place I always use haste+protection+regen+heartseeker(with channeling), in this order. For RoB, you should be able to go through it with Absorb and SoL casted on you always you can . Don't doubt it, use some health potions to increase regeneration rate (have 2 minimum in pockets), have one spirit potion reserved, and the rest mana potions. And of course, use your skills in spirit stance (you have to hit hard) and reload spells in spirit stance too. You don't really need deprecating spells to beat them, just watch out your points and expiring spells (even in IWBTH). Use your head too (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Does 'Magical Damage formula' Or 'Magical Crit Chance formula' have an effect on support spells?

either wind, or whatever gives a proc that debuffs your weapon's element. QUOTE(marill @ Jun 7 2013, 18:16)  Can someone help me?, with new update i cant do anything in batttle arena (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) does i need a better equip? yes. get some new equipment, and stay away from crude/fair. Check the free shops in the WTS forum. first thing for armor is get some gear with good PMI, mostly "of protection" suffix. You want end > str > agi >= dex for attribute bonuses on the equips. Also your dual wield is setup wrong. Strongest weapon in main hand. (put shocking axe in main hand). Rapiers or daggers would be better for off-hand. Balance suffix for off-hand would be better, but you might try a nimble suffix for better defense. Double-axe is something to use once you've figured out the DW style, and have enough defense. You also don't seem to have any of your skills equipped. You need to click on the icons to activate them in the abilities pages. Max your hp/mp/sp tanks first, then put at least 1 point into potions , DW, heavy, and support spells you need. Put the rest into whatever you want to prioritize.
