Well, that's true most of the time... Sometimes on IWs, I get a couple rounds in a row with only 2 or 3 enemies... right when I need to renew Regen & Spirit Shield.

QUOTE(zen_zen @ May 11 2014, 20:49)  Anything is possible - you might have to enlist the services of 5 different IW service or more to improve the odds and supply an endless amount of Amnesia Shards to them. What tantalizing pay off should that happen, 50% deeper HP tank on it's own and if you have VV, nearly twice as deep HP tank as compared to the mere mortals. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) No, I'm not that rich... (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) I would need to do it myself... (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Amnesia Shards is really a problem, I have 77 now and i'm pretty sure it would not be sufficient... (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) I've already got juggernaut 5 on a phase (that is not part of my main set anymore :/) with 3 resets, and juggernaut 4 on another one with 2 resets... all resets made at Lv.2... Well, I'll try this in future and see what happen... but first, I need to find replacements to my set, and since i'm not willing to spend much money on this, it will take a long time... (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) ...and yes, I have VV... (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) QUOTE(kuro009 @ May 12 2014, 00:01)  I'd rather prefer Capacitor Lv.5 than Juggernaut Lv.5 in cloth armors. Juggernut is more suited for heavy armors.
Nah.... I have EE... I use heroic potion when my mana is <= 25% ('cause of SoL in IA) and the regeneration can't overflow my mana bar even if I'm ether thefting at same time on marathons... so, i would not bother with capacitor... (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/duck.gif) Monsters able to one shot me on arenas... that's actually a problem... (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) (Maybe capacitor can be useful if i want to go on GF with 15 Last Elixirs... (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) )

Lately I've been going back and forth in my mind about whether I prefer Capacitor or Juggernaut on my phase. I'm thinking I'll just roll with whatever gets to level 5 first, or try going for a 5/4 split or whatever. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

I would do the same in the same case. Both are good in their own way.

QUOTE(kuro009 @ May 12 2014, 11:10)  When Melee, I do it in PFUDOR, and sometimes in Normal (when I play casually) difficulty. My 1st Leg Drop was in Normal Difficulty.
When Mage, I do it in IWBTH and Normal difficulty (PFUDOR-RE is just too tough for me as a mage).
You know, I did PFUDOR RE's as a mage regularly now. The trick is, you need the SP Tank (as high as possible) and better spirit pots up to Lv3, best and fastest Weaken and Imperil you can get and Mind Control ability, put Haste and Spark of Life as IA slots. Cast Sleep on the last three mobs, then cast the Spirit Shield, Shadow Veil, Protection, then Weaken everyone, and Imperil until you get 5-6 mobs in a row with them and cast Tier 1 or Tier 2 spell to pick them off little by little with Tier 3 range expansion (Conflagration Tier 3 for me), Be mindful of casting Tier 3 spells when you have plentiful mons in sleep status and don't wanna awaken 'em. I did the whole thing as a holy mage a few weeks ago and it works spectacularly to me. And I personally don't use Slow and reserves Silence and Magnet for powerful mons like the darkmages. The whole schtick requires at least IA2, IA3 to IA4 is recommended, And 100 Ability Boost. Also, don't cast Arcane Focus when there are too many mons are staring at you, unless if you have Spark of Life on and are willing to take the risk. QUOTE(Evil Scorpio @ May 12 2014, 14:36)  [ alt.hentaiverse.org] Tee-hee-hee. Actually it belongs to Complaints Thread, but who actually give a damn? ThisWas considering whether to scrap it away or not. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) This post has been edited by LostLogia4: May 12 2014, 13:52

because it would be a sort of wasted turn, right? thus you should aim at casting Arcane Focus when all mobs are stunned... This post has been edited by Scremaz: May 12 2014, 13:58

Arcane Focus is slow to cast, so monsters will be able to take many actions before your next turn. Risky.

You will be one-shoted a few times when you cast Arcane Focus (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

You will be one-shoted a few times when you cast Arcane Focus (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) Or as Blacksmith-kun puts it, one free turn for all the mons there to gang-rape you and your delicate body. Brutally. QUOTE(Scremaz @ May 12 2014, 20:15)  didn't note it when i cast heartseeker, and it should take the same amount of time... (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) at least heavy armors have their meaning (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Well, melees have better defense stats, such as higher damage mitigation, high parry rate, and with a shield it comes with high block rate as well, so you can cast high-tier spells without sustaining too much damage. Except that all spells costs a handful on heavy armors.

The only different is the END. The evade from phase is higher than the different of PMI/MMI between phase/power slaughter.

Well the Magikarp armors wasn't known for high PMI/MMI anyways. As for high evade rate for phases, that's also why forged phases are ridiculously broken. I've seen far too many demands for the mages to be nerfed, preferably to death just like what Admin-kun previously did that to estocs in the past, in fact, but I'd say half the high-level Hentaiverse players would quit playing if the game's maximum DPS keeps falling and falling in favor of moar high-PL critters like the "In Memory of Dark Mages". In fact, I would really be creating "In Memory of Elemental Mages" given half the Stonycat's wealth if that happens. TL:DR, if mages were to be nerfed then there has to be a high DPS setup to take up it's place, otherwise it wouldn't be fun for all the clearers out there.

But then wouldn't people start asking said high DPS setup to be nerfed?

Meh, all those losers would be jelly for high DPS setups regardless whether it's a melee or mage setup anyways. You can nerf the mages and power up the DW and Niten and such today and then they'll earn the player's ire and starts the cycles anew. It's a never-ending cycle of MMO jealousy really, if you deal with it all day then all the losers might as well start asking Admin-kun to nerf everyone and everything just to make everything fair.

also, high Resist, no? of course, it's not as good as shade neglect, but much better than heavy. tbh, i've no problem with mages. if they're willing to be glass cannons and spend tenths/hundredths of Millions & on equipment & forging. let them be what they want. however, it will be nice if there's a more viable melee AOE option. i know there's OFC, however, if you're not using 1H, OFC takes forever to charge up for other styles. you might as well use your skill instead of OFC.

People shouls ask for buff instead of nerf (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) A nerf actually doesnt hurt the top tier players as much as the mid tier and bottom tier players, since the former has the fund to quickly switch to the most efficient style This post has been edited by holy_demon: May 12 2014, 15:56
