QUOTE(LostLogia4 @ Apr 19 2014, 18:08)  Simply forge your legendary demonic staff and fenrir phase armaments with shitloads of Bindings of the Demon-fiend. If you have already used Crystallized phazons on the phase equips you can simply forge them in with a few hi-grade clothes.
I seriously doubt that's a very good idea to use Spirit Theft, at least not for a mage. Mages need MP a lot more than SP, so you might be better off with Ether Theft. Of course... there's the Ether Tap as well, but then again, you'll spend more MP than you could regain anyway, especially in a long-drawn out battles.
Actually i'm not a mage but a melee, 1H shade.

HV is temporarily unavailable, as the battle state tracker or master database is currently offline. Whenever I saw this, I look forward to the New Patch™ (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

So...I'm here seeking criticism/advice. Here is my build:   Specific questions: 1) Today i have seen the not-that-good magnificent ethereal axe of slaughter being sold for 500k. Does that mean that I should plan to spend at least 1m on quite-good magnificent ethereal axe of slaughter ? What about quite-good magnificent ethereal rapier of balance? 2) As you can see my current armour is magnificent shade of whatever. What should be my next aim? magnificent shade of shadowdancer or legendary shade of fleet (or maybe legendary shade of whatever)? 3)What should I shrine my noodlies for? 1H, 2H, shield, light armour? If you want to say me something about which i have not asked, I will be grateful too. This post has been edited by Paarfi: Apr 19 2014, 19:07

If you want to say me something about which i have not asked, I will be grateful too. 1) I dunno what is not-that-good axe for you. For me, I will not sell my axe 7 and 8 (in my signature) for any price lower than 1M. Rapier of balance should be more expensive IMO. 2) Your armor should be fine at the moment. Upgrade of your armor cost millions for merely a few percent of different. BTW, it seem some of your armor do not have 4 PABs. You should replace those piece, even if the stat is lower. 3) As you like (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) , perhaps try your luck with 1H. You may find an upgrade there.

QUOTE(holy_demon @ Apr 19 2014, 22:43)  EE is a waste, with enough capacitator your MP tank will be large enough for what a heroic MP potion could give you. SS can make you last a bit longer, since there's no potency for spirit tank, but the price tag (1000 hath) is hardly justifiable. Might as well go straight for DD (2000 hath) so you can last longer, AND clear faster. What are you going to put in IA4? SoL is a very situational buff, since at this level, you can pretty much see when your death is coming, so you only want to use it in emergency situation. Protection barely saves any mana and doesn't justify the 500 hath price tag. If you're 1H, even IA3 becomes useless, since SV is a situational buff for 1H (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) well... i have SoL, SV and haste on IA so just thinking of adding protection into the collection. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Daemon Duality increases damage by 10% at the cost of 2000 haths. the price tag feels pretty hefty for just a mere 10% buff. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) btw, i am maging.

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) btw, i am maging. If you compare the cost to rise the damage by 10% without reducing the defense, usually through forging, 10% damage for 2000 hath (~18M credits) is cheap IMO. And it work for every set of gears, not only a single weapon. This post has been edited by Colman: Apr 19 2014, 19:50

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) btw, i am maging. You're not using spirit shield? O.o Well multiply your MDB by 0.1 How much are you willing to pay for that increase (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) and killing things 10% faster will make you last a lot longer, since monsters will have less time to get their nasty spells out. And if you're spamming cure, the effect can be significant. I mean after forging my rapier, my ADB actually only increased by 10%, but I went from reaching PFUDOR round 130 to actually finishing it with 2 extra potions. Whatever you'd gain from IA-ing protection is pretty much insignificant

Which Elemental Spikes proc is the most interesting for shade?
I went (almost randomly) with frost-> freezing limbs -> 10% slower but there's also damage, evade+resist, accuracy inhibiting.

i use wind spikes with good results, but all are good in their own right. i'd discourage shock spikes. you already have enough anti evade from your normal accuracy you can also go with one that corresponds to your elemental strike(if you have one) so you get slightly more damage shock spike for fire strike flame spike for cold strike etc.
