QUOTE(Owyn @ Apr 25 2014, 02:31)  I recently found slow more pwning than silence, so I don't use silence anymore (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif) + about Staffs - I asked this some pages ago but there were no answers - why do you prefer staff of Heimdaill and not of Destruction? Recently got myself this http://hentaiverse.org/pages/showequip.php...;key=8e11058baa , thinking about IWing it to lvl10 with any bonuses ( I have pots for mana ) Not that I know, but I assume it's because +holy damage increases healing spell effects.

Of destruction gives an overall damage buff while Heimdall staff gives just the divine buff. This post has been edited by boulay: Apr 25 2014, 11:48

QUOTE(Evil Scorpio @ Apr 25 2014, 03:22)  Yo, guys, long time no see. So, anything interesting happened here since 0.76? Does mages suck nowadays? 'Cause the world looks much more boring if mages don't suck. (IMG: https://forums.e-hentai.org/uploads/post-329682-1339743871.gif) Welcome back. Dark mages suck and one-handed is actually awesome now.

QUOTE(Drakewyn @ Apr 25 2014, 05:06)  Strange you should say that... This Hammer vs. This Axe on IWBTH REs... the Hammer wins every time. Supmax-11 damage (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) no offense but that's a terrible axe. no wonder the hammer does better also: QUOTE(something @ Apr 25 2014, 06:26)  casual stroll through of PFUDOR end of days eternal darkness completed. would've gone alot more smooth if i had bothered maxing out pack rat. thank goodness for focus. <screencap snipped to save space>

QUOTE(malkatmp @ Apr 25 2014, 14:46)  Axe is also great due to high damage, but you sacrifice a ~10-15% of parry... ...also, they're cheap. in the pass couple auctions, you can get a Legendary Axe for 150-250k.

That doesn't make much sense since "more damage" also means "more damage with divine magic" I mean if you choose between destruction and heimdaill staff - destruction would give holy spells more damage than heimdaill one, no?

QUOTE(hentai_fusion @ Apr 25 2014, 19:30)  I would go for peerless since you have it. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Higher EDB, has CR. What I did for my dark focus staff was get penetratorx5 to give me 30%CR. I think annihilator would be the best best potency since you have a high crit%. So 4each would be nice. Also, I don't think the magic score script works for Radiant gear. Somehow the script isn't counting the extra magic damage on the phase armor.... can anyone verify this? Or did I just wasted a bunch of credits on meaningless radiant? This post has been edited by treesloth16: Apr 25 2014, 13:03

Not a must, it depends on the player's EDB/MDB ratio and the staff's stats. QUOTE(treesloth16 @ Apr 25 2014, 19:01)  Also, I don't think the magic score script works for Radiant gear.

It should work for Radiant gear. (there are codes in the script to ensure that the MDB's updated when the player's using/comparing a radiant armor) QUOTE(Evil Scorpio @ Apr 25 2014, 19:02)  250k for a legendary axe? Heh, looks like prices really fell down.
On the other hand... CA2 [] Legendary Radiant Phase Robe of Heimdall [seller:J.L. ] Current bid: 40000k ( SinBear ) (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Let me correct then: even more damage with holy magic for Heimdall staff ^^ Since it's a specific element, you get an additionnal damage bonus.

QUOTE Not a must, it depends on the player's EDB/MDB ratio and the staff's stats. I thought that's a must if player wears phase set of his element (heimdall), it's usually ~200% EDB with set and destruction and ~240% with heimdall staff This post has been edited by Owyn: Apr 25 2014, 13:30

QUOTE(varst @ Apr 25 2014, 15:46)  Those which you'll notice a significant drop in health. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Is the Tier 3 spell amongst them? QUOTE(varst @ Apr 25 2014, 15:46)  I'd prefer an hollowed oak of heimdall. Supportive prof + more holy EDB + counter-resist = easy start Dood... hollowed =/= hallowed, I get what you mean, but a single misspelling changes the whole meaning. QUOTE(varst @ Apr 25 2014, 15:46)  Tree's absorbing ward is passive, it can't be cancelled by silence. So the only thing you can do is to kill the tree first. Figured that one out today. Silence only keeps the tree from healing is all. QUOTE(varst @ Apr 25 2014, 19:16)  On the other hand... CA2 [] Legendary Radiant Phase Robe of Heimdall [seller:J.L. ] Current bid: 40000k ( SinBear ) (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) 40,000 Kilocredits = 40 Megacredits. Now that is rich. Yeah, kos9494 did ask me about the 48k pricetag for a certain fenrir robe. And here it is, form the PM. QUOTE QUOTE Not familiar about mage so I want to know something from you. Is this Robe really worth that much? I mean... its EDB is at Ex level but you're offering a price that seems to be able to buy yourself a Mag. level EDB robe. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) A good Mag. phase robe can go for 6 digit credit figure, a prefixed Leg phase sells for 7 digits iirc. partly cuz most of the former melee users (especially estoc) are maging. Heck, the rich guys like dnbdave would spend hundreds of millions of credits just to forge their weapons, with auctions you can pay on installment, so it's pretty normal for a good Leg phase equip to reach 7 or even 8 digits in auction really.

Yes; pretty much the spells that cost alot, mana-wise, will be slow. Alot of the scary mobs can crit twice in one turn, so you don't want to be casting heartseeker when there are too many staring down at you.

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) though, in the grand scheme of things, 250k for a Leg XYZ of Slaughter is pretty cheap. a lot of Exquiste stuff are selling for more nowadays.

Heh, looks like prices really fell down. said Axe, ethereal ones are too expensive for me. though, i'd imagine lv5 butcher (+ some forging) will make that axe pretty awesome. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) currently, aside from mages, power slaughter stuff or force shields or rapier slaughter can be pretty expensive.

Uh, is the Banish and Disintegrate fast enough to justify the lack of range and power of Paradise and Ragnarok when fighting 10 mobs at once? QUOTE(malkatmp @ Apr 25 2014, 20:08)  currently, aside from mages, power slaughter stuff or force shields or rapier slaughter can be pretty expensive. Mage equips goes without saying due to their high damage per minute. Why, perhaps a peerless one can rack up to 9 digit figure... This post has been edited by LostLogia4: Apr 25 2014, 14:23
