Hello everyone. I've started Hentaiverse last week and now I'm around lvl60. I play 2H weapon + Heavy armor and doing fine in Normal difficulty. However, when I tried to lvl up at Battletoads or IWBH difficulty it starts to get ugly (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) only one enemy can one-shot skill me to death. Do i need to adjust my equipment or status ? I don't buy/sell in forums so all my things came from bazaar and it quite low-quality though... Here's my stats and equipments [attachmentid=28278] HP 1734 MP 132 SP 74 any advice would be appreciated. Thanks **due to fight spam, I cannot post my equipment link in first post, so I'll do it in next post**

Even with good gear, you're not quite ready for difficulties that high.
On normal, how many passes through a weapon does it take to level it all the way up from 0?

Depends on the equipment's initial pxp. But it will add an amount of pxp equal to the number of rounds the item has, each time, on normal. Formula for PXP

About 100, if I recall Lement's experiences correctly. I leveled my Fine Estoc on BT, and that was taking 2-3 runs per level near the end. BT is a x5.6 multiplier, so those 2-3 runs per level would be 11-17 runs on Normal.

I saw a similar 1pab ethereal estoc for 15k.

I'm talking about my mainhand weapon. 178 rounds long. After 145 rounds, and 2 mana pots, I got killed when two things decided to spirit blast me when regen lapsed.

That's exactly what I bought it for, actually (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif). It's pretty much jank, but it's better than most Balance ones and it works well enough for a secondary style that I've yet to invest serious credits into, and won't be replaced until I can afford to dump 2m or so into a real weapon.

The required PXP for leveling scales in such a way that basically everything took 10 IWBTH runs before 0.76 changed up difficulty (and IWBTH was x10 PXP at that point). My Fine may have taken a few fewer runs than an Exquisite or Mag would have, but anything that's actually rationally worth IWing will take about 12-13 IWBTH runs these days (or ~100 Normal runs). IWing anything on Normal as DW is a bad idea, you'll go nuts. Even before 0.76 T_Starrk did all his IW runs as 2H for good reason.

Wow, someone actually IW'ed an equipment on Normal from Lv0 to Lv10? He or she must have great amounts of patience to do that! I am doing IW practice on this ShortSword on Nintendo before I decide whether to IW or not on a Magnificent weapon (the jury is still out on this). It's only a short 115 mob encounters per round of IW but it's still slightly longer than any Arena levels I've fought thus far. What's the multiplier for the IWBTH? Almost all IW service providers claim that they can take any equipment to Lv10 in 10 rounds of IW. Must be nice!

I managed to do a single normal IW-EXQ with spare mage gear(i'm a DW+HEAVY) without expending any pots or having good prof, i probably could have done up to BT or Nintendo. I don't wanna try that now with the new patch nerfing mage so hard. I'm keeping an eye out to buy a good ethereal estoc to do IW now. On another note i found 2 magnificent items in my inventory i didn't know about and a binding of slaughter when i was checking material quantities in the forge, i was like "huh i have a slaughter?". So what would be top cred for me to sell that for so i can save up for that future estoc, 120-200k?

Frenzied strikes helps. If i had the credits for a good 2H weapon, I could just pay somebody to level it for me. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) I always just look for the best WTB offer to get rid of items. This post has been edited by Marvin666: Jul 31 2013, 00:09

Thanks **due to fight spam, I cannot post my equipment link in first post, so I'll do it in next post** You simply don't have enough HP to last too long against higher levelled monsters found in BT or IWBTH. When there are a mob of monsters that can reduce your HP in half with a single attack, you just cannot heal quickly enough to stay alive, especially now that there is a 2 turn lag between casting Cure. I am not a heavy armour user but generally, look for the Protection suffix for your armour. Barring that look for high Endurance attribute to bolster your HP numbers. Finally, don't bother shopping at the Bazaar for your equipments. Go visit Wolfgirl's Free Shop and see if you can find some free Superior or higher equipments. I think she has said that she has tons of heavy armour which she did not bother to list in her store, see if you can beg, borrow or steal one or three of those unlisted equipments. Good luck,

Somehow I doubt you could have done 0.75 BT Exquisite IW with random spare gear and crap prof as mage. That creeping damage multiplier adds up real fast when you can't take out 80% of the average round in the first blast. Slaughter binding will get you like 120k in WTB these days.

So i just got into this game and this is what seems to be the noobie guide thread thing. I am an avid reader and stuff, but isn't there a.. shorter and more concise guide of the game somewhere?

@mutsdhr Yes, thank you. But you see, it isn't truly a guide, is it? It is helpful, but its still pretty barebones in the helping the newbie thing IMO.
Then again, that is one of the things that currently has me kinda hooked to the game :3

QUOTE(mutsdhr @ Jul 30 2013, 15:33)  Hi @ all a very simple question @ DW user ! http://hentaiverse.org/pages/showequip.php...;key=d7ed949772 Mag Etheral shorty & http://hentaiverse.org/pages/showequip.php...;key=6b5cf4a472 Rapir norm Slaughter have one better like this http://hentaiverse.org/pages/showequip.php...;key=bef06caa83 everything is better but no AGI ! I just want to know is slaughter really better ? asking because of Lvl. it up to 10 kost a shitload of time ! Or is hitchance + crit nothing that matters @ DW (only asking because 100% hit @ HV stats) ? Also is a Club of any meaning ? Have an Sup ETH Slaughter but stats also damn low ..i mean compared to "no slaughter" ! Thx 4 any advice !!!!!!!!! we talking main hand? for main hand slaughter because skill/crits damage will be greater. DW's purpose is high upfront single target damage (ie bosses), so you want to load up as much damage as possible on main hand. drain procs suck. both those rapiers are not good options. Lack of strength means you lose damage. Ideally 4 pabs, but you want str+dex on weapons since they add to damage. Proc on slaughter one is low.

Hi, I'd like to ask what does reforging do and why it would be beneficiary to make an equipment forget its experience and unlocked potencies.
