Finally found myself a good shield http://hentaiverse.org/pages/showequip.php...;key=a2397cbc39 and now thinking about forging it to 18 lvl block, it will rise my block chance from current 44.4% to about 51%, it will cost me about 1.5m. So experienced 1h players, please tell me is it worth it? This post has been edited by LazyShd: Mar 2 2014, 12:14

1H Damage - Increase damage when using the One-Handed fighting style, scaling with proficiency. 1H Accuracy - Increase attack accuracy when using the One-Handed fighting style, scaling with proficiency. 1H Block - Increase block chance when using the One-Handed fighting style, scaling with proficiency. why taking Block ability does not change the Block stats, while other abilities - change statistics?

Depends, if you want faster clear speed, then it's not worth it; you'd better spend that money on power slaughter or forging attack on main weapon. If you want to faceroll more reliably and manage your spirit better, then it's a good investment (then again, you already have VV so it's not important to you...)

same problem here. i'd say your prof is low (so scaling is not very big) or really it is unrelevant (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) i think the first, since i have a similar problem with 25 prof but an equal augment with 2H is enough to boost my parry from 18 to 23, with 240 prof This post has been edited by Scremaz: Mar 2 2014, 12:38

Thanks for the answer, i can easily faceroll IWBTH (1-3 cure for The Trio and the Tree) but not PFUDOR (about 20-30 cure for The Trio and the Tree), moreover i always multitask while playing, so it seems that faceroll more reliably is in priority.

With ~40 1H proficiency, my block chance increased by 0.8% when I slot that ability.

Does anyone know what happened to HTTP? Seriously; did he get sent to the Moon, or something? You would think that someone as invested in HV as he was wouldn't just stop playing all of a sudden, especially so close to the level cap.

my fault, unexpectedly was not enough red-place for ability so Block ability works well and with capped 1H prof (Level 250) - block chance increased by 6.3% without shield (0%) and by 4.3% with a 31.3% shield. @Scremaz, @varst, @Stulpen, @Drakewyn - thx and sry for false alarm ^^ first time playing Arena125 - Eternal Darkness - and it took more than an hour on Hard, how much it takes time to pass IWBTH/PFUDOR and what level u have when first time did it(and style)? it's kinda boring playing 1H-Shade style - bosses cannot kill me but i cannot fast kill them too, even on Hard, only damage i deal are Shield Bash/Vital Strike coz normal attack - do nothing, maybe deal in my bad equipment or this style not fit for fast long arena and is ok only for safety playing final round, RoB and encounter vs 10 pokemons?

Do you use imperil on them? And also a weapon with PA can make a great difference. This post has been edited by Stulpen: Mar 2 2014, 14:33
