I'm pretty happy with my shade shadowdancer set, but question was not about light armor itself but about using it instead of heavy one with shield and 1H (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Well according to HTTP/308, light armor + one hand + shield give you the best change to survive, even at the later level/difficult .. but it just too slow to consider playable
I didn't try it yet though, why don't you ?

If you level up your forge - it'd give more materials from salvaging, right?

so, what should I waste to level it up? any suggestions on item type and binding type to waste cost-wise?

Or should I just abandon the idea of salvaging and leave it to hardcore nolifers? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

why don't you ?

Didn't find a nice shield anyway (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

Ignoring clear speed and survivability, counters proc enough with light armor. I rarely run out of OC even with SV on.

With 1h, I usually don't have SV or SS on. This allows block/parry/evade/pmi to do its job and save spirit.

Is there any tip to finish DwD on BT? I barely make it through Hell with DW and power slaughter set-up...

To the people who already got FUS RO DAH, what was your strategy, your set-up, and level when you got it?

Return rate is 80% on 0 lvl forge and 90% on max lvl forge.
Andit return rate affects on salvaging already upgraded with material and binding. For example if you used 20 bindings to some item, only 16 bindings returned on lvl 0 forge, and 18 bindings on maxed forge.
Do you have some equips that is much upgraded but no need to use now? If not, no need to upgrade forge level.

So what should I salvage? all the exquisites? People seem to buy those for at least 5k each for leather light armor

With 200% accuracy, monsters can't evade your attacks.

so with 150% is still possible, right?

i forgot who said it, but a good rule of thumb is to salvage crappy equips with ≥325 PXP yourself, sell the ones with 324-315 PXP to some salvager in WTB(check their requirements), and bazaar everything else you can't sell or with <315 PXP

No specific strategy even on PFUDOR whatever you use 1H or DW. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Just kill first normal monsters stacking overcharge, and use your skill with 3 Penetrated Armor to schoolgirl.
- In case of 1H: Shield Bash -> Vital Strike with Spirit Stance
- In case of DW: Iris Strike -> Backstab with Spirit Stance -> Frenzied Blows with Spirit Stance
- If you feel dangerous, use deprecating spells like Weaken or Silence.
Repeat this. It's really a boring work... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

IMO, FRD is not required to clear DwD with DW.
It may provide some good point when running Hellfest though.

That's my strategy on Hell, and I always come close to running out of mana potion (with 1 or none left, with 10 at the strategy). So I reckon my gear is not good enough?

I tried using Imperil, but it drains mana so fast that I run out of mana at ~round 140. Do you use focus during the run?

Well I need FRD for Hellfest, but to get FRD, I need to clear DwD on BT T.T

With 150% accuracy, you have a counter-evade of 50%, ie monsters will evade twice less than if you had 100% accuracy.

Accuracy and Counter-Evade

Accuracy is back to being an additive stat for players. Attack and Spell accuracy above 100% will never "miss", and whatever accuracy you have above 100% is applied as Counter-Evade against the target.

In other words, a spell accuracy of 150% will never fail the "miss" roll, and reduces the target's effective Evade by 50%.

- Most sources of accuracy, including accuracy bonuses for equipment, were adjusted because of this.

- Voidseeker's Blessing and Suffused Aether enchantments add +50 to the corresponding accuracy stat.

It's superior and not ethereal/hallowed, the damage roll is bad too, so pretty much nobody would want it. Either bazaar it, give it to newbs, or donate to the free shop.

Huh? Could you clarify this?

What part don't you understand? If you don't understand the acronym, DwD = Dancing with Dragons (lv300 arena), Hellfest = Grindfest on Hell difficulty, FRD = Fus Roh Dah(special skill), BT = Battletoad (difficulty)

allright, thanks

hi there...
i have a question...

if a weapon with element Prefixes, forged with binding that upgrade the spell damage, (Niflheim, Surtr, Mjolnir, etc..)

is that weapon element strike damage increased?, or it just increase the spell that share the same element as the weapon..?

What I meant was, I wasn't aware of a special skill that you could only get by clearing a specific Arena on a specific Difficulty Setting...

There is no change to element strike damage, it affects only elemental spell damage.

You get that skill with the Dovahkiin title. You need to be at least lvl 300 for that anyway, and that title isn't used by many people as Godslayer gives bonus damage.
