[X] My Assistant

I have a question regarding my autocast slot.

I have Haste on it, which was cancelling out my MP regeneration, causing me to lose roughly one MP every four rounds, but as the casting cost dropped I had a brief period when I was actually regenerating MP (upkeep cost was 1.14 MP). I then gained a level, and it went up to 1.15. Now it's back to 1.14, but I'm still losing MP every round. Why? Is there some mechanic I'm missing?

thanks zanky and clarkiest for the answers, especially for the scripts. I hope i can use it, and if i sell the equips on cheap price... well, it's just a game (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

You're probably barely on the edge of breaking even in terms of mana used and regenerated, thing is, you don't know whether that 1.14 is 1.140 or 1.149 which can make a difference. (Assuming Hentaiverse does calculations beyond 1/100's)

I see, that seems to be the most likely reason. I guess I'll wait and see what happens when I hit 1.13. Thanks (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

On PFUDOR, the effect durations (including stun, skill combo chain, and etc.) last longer than that of IWBTH as if my action speed has increased.
To be accurate, it looks like both of my action speed and monster's one increase.
Is this measure intended for PFUDOR?
Maybe... some consideration for the challengers of merciless difficulty? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)
In fact it's very helpful for me to clear high level arenas fast and safely, especially Eternal Darkness and DwD... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

No, I don't think so. Attached are my comparison between the two.


Initial duration marker (my weaken still at 11 turn) is always the same regardless difficulty. I believe you have something changed. How about your armor? your stat? Look at your attack speed bonus, keep it same and try again. I am interested in this finding of yours.

Nothing has changed, I changed difficulty only maintaining same stat, same attack speed, and same equipment.
The duration is same for both difficulty as you said. But I mean that "as if both of my action speed and monster's one increase."
Hmm... for example, when I use Shield Bash to a monster (I'm using 1H) on Hastened,
its duration (5T) ends before the skill's cooldown that I cannot use Shield Bash again on IWBTH. I should wait 2~3 turns to use another Shield Bash.
But on PFUDOR, the cooldown for the skill ends when the duration of Shield Bash expires that I can use that again.
This means I can stun a monster eternally with Shield Bash on PFUDOR (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

ppl got different circumtance. it's better to leave it untouched.

@Solarhawk sorry i'm to late to notice that. thanks for explain thing. i bad at that

@SPoison it's depend what you use. like 1H with heavy will be more better than with light

I'm not so sure anymore.

I rarely use bash when playing 1H. Right now, I'm barely able to maintain spirit stance, so a single shield bash gonna stop my stance some rounds later.
I'll leave confirming or disconfirming this finding to somebody else.

New Question
Combining imperil and penetrated armor, good? or wasteful?

waste if you don't have any elemental strike (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

imperil more usefull for Dw since it have 4 elemental strike ( + infusion ) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/duck.gif)

I'm not so sure anymore.

what you not sure?

@ezlifee yes i also notice what you mean. when I go to PFUDOR i can launch my skill tier2 two times with just using once time tier1 (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

A 1H leather user with a force shield might be better then a 1H heavy.

Any reason to keep spirit stance forever? I have found that 1H make my spirit tank run out very fast due to the prolonged spirit stance.

Faster clear speed would be the obvious reason.

Yeah, it really helps to keep a schoolgirl monster quiet (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I also keep spirit stance very much to clear arena and IW fast.
And I resolved the spirit insufficient problem with Spirit Theft.

Double damage. What else?
I brought 3 spirit pots while doing 1H, and have yet play higher than Hell at second page arena. I'm fine so far.

Won't it need some dark spells to be casted first? I haven't tried it.

Yes, my forbidden proficiency is over 200, so I can cast Ragnarok. I had a hard time to get the proficiency (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
The probability to get Sprit Theft is 40% with Ripened Soul 2 lvl.
In other words, I'm converting 164 MP (119 for Ragnarok, 45 for Drain) MP into 200+ SP.

Neat!
Very neat!

Did the cloth changes make low pxp impossible to get? Outside of one 150 light armor I happened to spot, I haven't seen anything lower than 180.
