Okay, forget the Archeologist thing, I now have a new problem.

@marcho: it was posted somewhere before, and I don't remember the real numbers, but you'll understand how training works with example below:

25% of monster's deaths, the monster will drop something.
scavenger increase this rate.

10% of the drops are equipments, and 1% of artifacts, rest other items.
quartermaster, and archaeologist increase the correspondent rates.


So if I have already 10 levels of scavenger , and 3 archaeologist:
1.2*1.3=1.56 In other words more 56% to artifacts to drop.

adding the 4th level:
1.2*1.4=1.68 In other words more 68% to artifacts to drop.

He's going from 3rd level of archaeologist to 4th level. If he does indeed have 10 levels of scavenger, it would boost his drop by 20% regardless so that cancels out. Your idiocy amazes me more and more each day. /rolleyes

Ok that's what I get for reading posts at this time of day, and for that post of mine I apologize. However you already proved your idiocy more than once, and the refusal to admit you're wrong, so that's why I posted like that.

Moving on, now time to correct your math, because yes, it's still wrong:

58,950C was the amount of credits to pay the 4th level.
9,000C per artifact.
This means you need to get 58,950/9000=6.55 extra artifacts to pay the training.
x - represent the number of artifacts you would get with 0 archaeologist in a y (this is a constant) number of drops.

x*1.4-x*1.3 = 6.55
x= 65.5 artifacts

But since you have 4 archaeologist this actually represent 65.5*1.4=91.7 artifacts.

So it's only after 92 artifacts dropped you "pay" the training, not 66.

Seriously, in the amount of time it would take to get 92 artifacts at 4 archaeologist you would already(most likely) have went ahead and got the 5th level of archaeologist for the same reason you got the fourth on----->because you want more artifacts to drop at a faster rate!!!

so lets stop this pointless bickering shall we?

I know this is a good 20 levels away, but when I complete end game and unlock the next series of arenas, will the original 17 arenas still be available to me?

they will, i saw them all open in a pic that miwabe had in another thread

all arenas are always available once a day once you meet the min requirements, and none ever relock.

Take out tanks in exp and put them in mana tanks. Don't play on heroic (normal/cake until you get to higher levels and you can survive battletoads in Arena). Your equipment needs work (get heavy w/ good damage absorbtion/a good bleed longsword for now). You need to get more endurance.

icic ok thanks..is there any decent eqs i can buy from u? :\

and also if i go dual wield which 2 weapons should i use?

I don't want to make you look bad by correcting you so many times and it is Christmas Eve and all so I'm give you a chance to redeem yourself by letting you find out your own mistake.

Here is a hint: He's going from the third level of archaeologist to the fourth level.

I hope the hint helps, good luck!

Does Luck of the draw count to drop chance of Artefacts or only Equipment(Crude, Average, Fine, etc. ?) ?

Luck of the draw does not increase the drop chance of anything. it merely increases the quality of the drops... i.e. crude, average, superior, etc...

Scavenger increases the drop chance of loot in general... i.e. equipment, potions, scrolls, infusions, special, artifacts, etc...

A little quetion about Karma system :

I read the thread about it :

https://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showt...83&hl=karma

but I still don't get it : does it affect somehow character HV or it's just more sophisticated reputation system ?

Karma increases your forum power which increases your Spirit (1/7th of your power is added to your Spirit). The effects of that, however, are extremely minor.

that's pretty much it when it comes to hv...

it's my impression or artifacts are dropping at a insane rate?
i'm getting a average of 2 for day

their value seems to drop

I haven't noticed anything changed in their drop rate. Since when you get 2 artefacts\day ?

I know this is a good 20 levels away, but when I complete end game and unlock the next series of arenas, will the original 17 arenas still be available to me?

Yes, however, you have to clear the arena after end game to unlock the next arena, then you have to clear that one to unlock the next one. Basically, you have to clear the one unlocked after End Game to unlock the next one, and then complete that one to unlock the next one.

That is the way that the Wiki explains it.

I don't think you unlock all the new arenas after you complete End Game. I think you have to unlock them one at a time by beating the one previous to the one you are trying to unlock (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
