QUOTE(Sorokaput @ Aug 21 2013, 12:43)  I know that fine and below equipment considered bazaar fodder. But recently I started to get superiors and even one junk exquisite. I think I should send couple of it to Wolfgirl? but what should I do with rest of it? Try to set a shop? Send to bazaar? Maybe salvage it? And what to do with low-level trophies (dalek/mithra). Shrine or sell?
First look at the type of equipment of your superiors. Throw all leather, cotton, shields, shortswords, longswords, willow and redwood into the bazaar, they're not used too often and are only good when they have very high sats. Shade, Phase and power are almost always sellable above superior. As for the other items, it really depends on the suffix. Keep bad exquisites and sell them to salvagers, it'll fetch atleast 3-4k. You can honestly do both with trophies. I tend to lose a bit of credits when I don't get any good drops(Compared to selling), but you might get lucky and receive a somewhat decent piece of gear.

No, shrining isn't effected by anything I think, I'm saying a smaller amount of credit can do more for you at the lower levels than at higher levels so it might be best to sell. btw, when i say sell, i mean on the forum, not in the game or else you do worse.

Damn Heavy Armor is godly (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) I tried to copy the REAL tazmanian build by wearing some random power/protection/slaughter crap I got in my inv at the moment. Had literally 0 Heavy prof. Killing everything like fist of the northern star. Damn. This post has been edited by kserox: Aug 21 2013, 14:18

Damn Right!!!!! I can clear The Trio And The tree arena in normal difficulty only about 10 minutes And I try to clear arena lvl 200 and all arena below that on normal difficulty.And I only need an hour and a half. It's really quick and not consume much mana when cast something.But It's really2 low health. This post has been edited by zanky: Aug 21 2013, 14:50

It depends really. My Shade full evade armor can easily be killed in IWBTH by some monsters crits me at the same time (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif) [HP full 10k++, usually when my spirit is depleted is usually the time monsters have a way with me (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) ] One crits for example from Raging Heart can net 4-4,5k damageWhile my Protection Armor full defense almost unkillable, unless my potion is depleted (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif) And.. the magic missiles from monsters consecutively usually that kills (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif) This post has been edited by Frostbite: Aug 21 2013, 14:53

Now someone has to test which options drain potion faster. I guess heavy has a bit of an advantage, though, since riddlemaster recover mp but not sp This post has been edited by holy_demon: Aug 21 2013, 15:35

I personally think you should use heavy for slaughter's ADB and if you're willing to feather. Shade is good, but it has only so much offense.

The advantages of light are pretty much just no interference and high evade. Somewhat high crit too if using Shadowdancer, but power's crit chance bonus isn't too bad either. Considering evade gives diminishing returns, feathering heavy and casting shadow veil might almost have the same effect as going full Shade.

QUOTE(etothex @ Aug 20 2013, 21:49)  rapier. you get shield bash + counter stuns, so club isn't needed. axe is fine for lower difficulties, but you want PA for higher difficulties.
Does PA still do something if your weapon is ethereal/hollowforged?

When you do Arena battles, is it worth to do them repeatedly on the highest difficulty possible ?
Doing 2-3 is fine (200~ rounds atm), but any more and I get fed up.
Should I do the earlier Arenas (i.e page 1) on lower difficulty to just get the clear bonus ?
Does the difficulty give me better drops (versus only more drops) or better Arena Clear Bonus ?
I rather play on the highest difficulty at my own pace, i.e grind fest, instead of having to do # number of rounds.

With void damage you can bypass specific mitigation like slashing, crushing, fire mitigation and others like that. PA lowers physical mitigation which void damage won't bypass since it's just physical attacks in general.

Difficulty makes everything go up, the toughness of the enemies ofcourse, but also the amount of credits you get and the quality of equipment mobs drop. Since Arena challenges already give 4 times as many credits as grindfest, it's worth it to play it on higher difficulties. You'll get 12 times as many credits as grindfest on IWBTH. Higher level challenges also have a quality modifier for drops if I remember correctly, which do get added up with the difficulty setting.

Full Cure is a different spell in your spell book. At level 220 you should definitely have it.

When should I be able to do IWBTH ? Right now I can barely do Graduation on Battletoads, and it takes a while.

I make mistake in my earlier post If i think again, I could quickly beat arena because 2h. QUOTE(Solarhawk @ Aug 22 2013, 08:06)  Full Cure is a different spell in your spell book. At level 220 you should definitely have it.
Yoeah Finally i got that spell. Live is much easier from now. It unlock at lvl 220. Because at 219 i don't get it yet.what the hell wiki said only lvl 200 to unlock. It really confuse me.

What Shadowdancer? How to unlock it? QUOTE(holy_demon @ Aug 21 2013, 20:33)  I think it all comes down to spamming mp pot with heavy versus spamming sp pot with light.

I spamming bot mp and sp pot.And I really need very lot of mana to beat arena on higher difficulty.Because of that my sup prof really high and my sup spell have longer duration. Wait.Maybe it's because i focus on str more than my agi. So i need lot of mp pot QUOTE(sssk @ Aug 22 2013, 08:40)  When should I be able to do IWBTH ?

It's a suffix for Shade armor. It has higher evade and crit than other Shade pieces. This post has been edited by erwtsnert: Aug 22 2013, 04:55
