[X] My Assistant

Never tried confuse, myself. But then again, my Depricating prof is pretty low.

Trust me, when your deprecating prof is high enough, the only deprecating spell you will want to use is Imperil (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Oh, I do use imperil when I'm doing Pfudor Arenas... but Silence is really, really nice on Pfudor Randoms

As long as Spirit shield is activated, silent is not necessary in most, if not all, of the cases.

i guess i've to spend a lot of time improving my deprecating proficiency from scratch. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

ps. also, just got this Mag drop, did i strike gold?

Magnificent Savage Shade Helmet of the Arcanist 5PAB, aside from 5PAB & better Dex roll, everything seems pretty normal. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

It isn't a bad piece, but auction value is probably in the 100-200k range as it's missing the endurance PAB and most of the rolls are mediocre :/ You might get lucky mind, but arcanist shade doesn't often fetch a high price from what I've seen - it's shadow dancer and fleet that do.

For 1H heavy.. I shouldn't be using Haste or Shadow Veil, right? I just switched from DW a few days ago and I don't want to be using the wrong strategy haha (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I still use rapier so should I need Imperil at all?

I have Haste loaded in my IA1 slot and SV loaded in my IA2 slot... Yeah, maybe I evade some attacks that I might have parried or blocked... but so what? I'm not trying for the fastest clears, I'm looking for safety.

I wouldn't worry about disabling haste - that one is still pretty important, especially in PFUDOR. Depending on your armor (light vs heavy), if you're using shade then shadow veil will give you a good boost. If you're using shielding or power then you're not really going to be boosting your negligible evade much so it's probably a waste of MP.

i've did a similar switch recently. for everything below IWTBH, I just use Protection & Spike Shield for IA1&2. i found Haste being too fast makes me counter 2x per round instead of 3x.

But for IWTBH+, Protection & Spike Shield & Haste is always on. of course Regen too, but that's a given. SV helps a bit too, but it's not that effective when you've 0% base evade.

though, i would love to hear more about "Imperil".

thanks. 100-200k is pretty for me. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Need advice for the next money spendin goal, can't decide between Luck of the Draw and Crystarium. Maybe there's something else?

Luck of the Draw

If you want to have more exq.+ drops (given you are able to play at BT+ difficulty). The higher LoTD, the higher upper range for quality roll for drop is. (Might be mistaken, but that's how I understood wiki)

Crystarium

If you rise monsters and are able to do GF efficiently = long runs.

I don't know your priority, so it's up to you. I personally go for Luck (working on final 25 training right now) as you never know when you might get something good worth millions (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif).
Plus of the latter one is that it generates passive income (you just need to visit monsters once for a while and take gifts) if you manage to get enough monsters at sufficiently high level (~1k pl).

P.S. : I prefered your previous avatars.

I always use both If I play on IWTBH or PFUDOR. Haste is very important if you want to kill them faster, SV is less important but can still help and you want every little help you can get on these difficulties.
But I wouldnt bother much about it on lower difficulties its not very necessary but can still help I prefer to use Haste whenevery I can.
But so just so you know Haster>SV!

LoTD is only worth it if you can at least do the arenas on PFUDOR. Crystarium is only good if you can do at least 900 rounds Hellfest, or 200 rounds of PFUDORfest.

Hell, with the way ED price is rising, I doubt if Hellfest is still a good choice for grinding

Thanks for advice and you remind me that i wanted to make a new avatar with Mashiro-tan. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

LoTD is only worth it if you can at least do the arenas on PFUDOR. Crystarium is only good if you can do full Hellfest, or 200 rounds of PFUDORfest.

I can play PFUDOR but except RE i practically always play on IWBTH just because it much easier for multitasking.

There.While there have been level 60s who get decent legendaries, this way it is tbh somewhat better actually.

I would say at lower level, Luck is more beneficial as it is "active" always ( well, Crystarium is either active, but it shines mostly at later rounds of GF ). I personally regret investing in Crystal perk 1 as I'm unable to GF (mana issues, crappy gear) efficiently (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif).



Speaking of mana issues. Question to peeps playing 1h + heavy. Any tips how to not die during longer runs out of lack of mana pots ? Yesterday I almost finished IW at IWBTH on leg. item, but...my 170 % mana consumption killed me.

Grab IAs/Resplendent Regeneration as they reduce mana cost per turn. Make sure you have all 15 potion slots unlocked. Only then should you start to use focus to regenerate mana, as this is very time consuming (kill all mobs except last 1~2, then spam focus).

IWBTH IW leg is facerollfest for me with full power slaughter (ie. < 10 use of cure). I can do even PFUDOR IW leg (not faceroll though) with 7-8 mana pot. So maybe you're not wearing full slaughter? Buffs is a major mana drain on 1H heavy, so you either need to kill as fast as possible, or lower your interference. For faster kill speed, always remember to use infusion, use power slaughter and use OFC. For lower interferece, use featherweight shards on your shield, armor, and leggings, though I only do it on SG run...

@HNTI: I'd say the opposite, actually, as LOTD does ...~very little at Normal, given it's nature.

Anyway, for festing it is more about how much/fast you do than how deep you go.

So maybe you're not wearing full slaughter?

I wear full power of prot. of various quality (exq. to leg.).

I have RR and 15 slots unlocked long time ago. I equip 8 mana pots and 7 spirit. I use 2 enchants on rapier.

OFC

???

@HNTI: I'd say the opposite, actually, as LOTD does ...~very little at Normal, given it's nature.

I didn't say at normal, but in general that you have a higher chance to get something from a tier above played level e.g. Mag at hell.
