QUOTE(something @ Apr 18 2014, 19:28)  you rang? rapier of the nimble could be good but you probably need one with >mmax parry. any lower and the extra defense wont make up for not having higher offhand strike and crit chance case and point: i can clear nintendo arenas faster with this rapier than this one. they both have about the same parry, but balance makes things go so much faster even without being IW'ed well, consider that they have the same parry chance, while the balance one has about 2.5x accuracy and crit chance, so it isn't a fair comparison (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

QUOTE(malkatmp @ Apr 18 2014, 13:31)  that Legendary Rapier looks awesome. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) though, why didn't you IW it? saving up to pay someone to get SS 5 on it. i'd do it myself but 86 rounds takes way too long QUOTE(Scremaz @ Apr 18 2014, 13:35)  well, consider that they have the same parry chance, while the balance one has about 2.5x accuracy and crit chance, so it isn't a fair comparison (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) true. that's why i said probably.

86rds (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/faint.gif) i understand though, IW is one of the more frustrating thing in the game, especially, when you want a specific lv5 on something.

QUOTE(Colman @ Apr 19 2014, 01:05)  DW with Balance weapon on the off-hand is the only way to make off-hand strike chance reach 100%. Also, DW players need critical to make killing faster. Balance weapon give both.
BTW, when the level getting higher, the defense will also be higher. FYI, when I use DW, I use full power armor.

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/faint.gif) I didn't know balance suffix grants not only higher accuracy but also crit. chance. Orz

I got a couple items I want to auction, but want someone who has a more active thread to auction it for me. Do I just message them about it? And do they also take a cut for this?
Or is it a better idea to just auction them myself?

Say I wanted to create a monster and eventually dump everything to make it really strong and a pain in the ass to deal with, what race would be the best to choose?

Dreamophobia & 千石 撫子 are generally pretty good choices. they will take a 10% cut, but if your items is <250-300k, they'll waive the 10% charge. you can just message them, they seem friendly & helpful enough. generally, you can just sent the item with item link to them in MM. you can auction them yourself, however, you might not generate enough traffic & your thread might sink pretty fast.

So about forging, is the materials required for each tier the same or does it get more expensive? if it is the latter how can I anticipate the cost?

don't know about quantity, but surely about quality: for a mag piece you should start with 3MG/2HG and after 5/10/whatever levels you may find a 1/4 ratio...

always cost 1 binding, 1 special component (if needed) and 5 graded materials. the only thing that changes is ratio of LG/MG/HG. Special component consumption is cumulative to highest level of any forging, as in you use 1, and it's good for all other upgrades up to that level. (2 upgrades of a power armor's pmi requires 2 repurposed actuators, but upgrading, attack, str, dex, pmi, mmi all to level 1, costs only 1 repurposed actuator) This post has been edited by etothex: Apr 18 2014, 21:29

QUOTE(kos9494 @ Apr 18 2014, 10:25)  My LotD was lvl 9 that time (lvl 10 now), so I thought I was lucky. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) It was only two Mag., one was Axe of Illithid and the other one was a Longsword of of the Battlecaster. Both of them didn't have prefixes and their PXP is below average so I salvaged them. That's usually the case (crap drops of magnifish*ts) but still to get even those at your level is pretty lucky. I didn't see one until I was near Lv300.

personally i have a crush for 4PAB shades, so i'd say only the helmet; also, i don't know your budget (neither i'm interested to, tbh (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) ) but seeing the owner i don't really know if you could buy all the other you may want to... btw, if you're happy enough with fleet (which are basically shadowdancer minus crit chance bonus) i have a couple of 4PAB exq ones up for selling (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) This post has been edited by Scremaz: Apr 18 2014, 23:26
