[X] My Assistant

22/25. Hasn't changed in quite awhile now, since I've been spending credits on various things. I'll probably do 23 next week.
Hito is at 23/25 I believe. Maybe even 24 by now. Not sure.

Crazy bastards (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Only Haste, SV, Barrier and Shield as of right now.
.

no offensive spells huh? what a shame

no offensive spells huh? what a shame

That would be waaaaay too overpowered. Leave all 4 Tier 1 elemental AoE's on and spam Defend.
Way too easy.

When I was starting out I thought that was how the high levels did all their damage. Instant 100K Wrath of Thor one-shots as soon as the round starts. : (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

A question about base drop rates: do they increase for mini-bosses / difficulty level / round count, or is that just item quality?

I also read that the round count loot quality bonus stops after 100 or 500, can anyone clarify?

Only the last round of an Arena has a higher drop rate bonus for all monsters.

I'm pretty sure that round quality bonus stops at round 100. Dunno where that 500 came from.

Not quite. I will be by tomorrow though.

As of now... No matter how people might try to tell you, the game is not really designed to be played "mixed" (ie: melee and maging at the same time) and expect to get a good results. You can do it... But really, there's no reasons and no point doing it whatsoever.

If you want to do both... Once you cast offensive spell, you'll learn that you can just keep doing it and get a better results than melee. You'll feel like trying to get rid of any non-cloth armor, if you do use it that is, to reduce interference. Afterward, you might want to try using a staff to gain more magic damage, and maybe some gossamer / phase ...

Taa daa! you become a mage!
BTW, you want some mage skills.. Do you have Overcharge boost maxed already..?

ah well ain't that a kick in the teeth? and here I was hopin' for a spellreaver (mage/warrior) kind of character (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) lol oh well I'll just stick to the defensive and deprecating spells instead.

well I am using a kevlar/cloth combo for increased shield(spell) and evade rating (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) not bad so far

sorry but no, I ain't lookin to become a mage anytime soon
not yet, lemme show ya


what in yer opinion should I be focusing on? and yet another stupid question, what's 'overcharge' do/boost exactly if anything?

That shit should be waaaaaaaaay cheaper, .5% isn't worth 62,250,321C
Half a percent for 62mil credits.
What the fuck ~_~'

see, this was why I thought you eventually got a 100% drop rate. For the later levels, it becomes ridiculously expensive to train. If you only get .5% or some other crappy value, then it's not worth leveling.

If anything, Scavenger is the one that's MOST worth raising. Since doubling your overall item drop rate also doubles your artifact/equip drop rate.

....

yea, that's what I noticed too. scavenger might be worth it as long as it doesn't get too expensive. There's no point in leveling something if the cost is always greater than the return.

what in yer opinion should I be focusing on? and yet another stupid question, what's 'overcharge' do/boost exactly if anything?

Beside the usual thing like Tank and Regen, aim for Haste once you're LV.90 (after get X-Attack). Other than that, there's nothing to it really. Just keep dumping AP into OC boost whenever possible, have it maxed out is your goal. Collecting such a high amount of AP needed to do this is a long and painful process, many brave soul have fallen before achieve knighthood...

Also, focus on getting a good gears, priority on weapons. (PM me if you looking for something, I might have something)

I envision a hard-hitting, high evasion character. What kind of main spect should I focus on? Currently I put a lot in strength, then endurance, then AGI, then dex. I use a Rapier and a tower shield. Any suggestion?

yeah your probably right about that

Well, STR gives you more dmg, AGI more evasion. So, that should be your main focus, but don't let END and WIS run back by too far. END gives you HP = you will live longer and WIS gives you MP. And the rule in HV is - If you're out of MP, you die.

Also, grab a high parry dagger instead of the shield. See, when you focus on evade, you pretty much neglect your physical absorption. You bank on the fact that you wont get hit that often, so a few hits won't bother you, even if they do quite a bit of dmg.
With parry, you can increase that even further. Why parry and not block? Tower shields do give a lot of block (a good tower shield will give almost twice as much block as a good dagger gives parry), but they have a high burden. With shields it's pretty much a trade-off of block and burden. More block - more burden.
The more burden you have, the slower you move. The slower you move, the more hits you take, the more hits you take, the more hits get past evasion and block = faster death.
So yeah, I'd recommend a good dagger.

Check my auction for a good dagger:
Fine Prism Dagger of The Nimble

Shameless plug, I know (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)

Very good advise. Thank you for your reply. Your dagger looks good, but the level is too high for me right now. Orz.
Should I max out the Overcharge boost? It seems to increase the damage potential.

I'm playing as a high damage mage.

Damage mitigation? What's that? >.> I'm getting hit for a LOT of damage even in Easy mobs. They fall down pretty easily but so do I, and getting crit'd 3x in a row will kill me even if I healed the turn before....
I can clear items up to and including Fine on Item World but Superior will kill me in the last 5 mobs.
Arena win/loss depend on me spamming Swiftness scrolls.

Thanks for your help (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

"I'm playing as a high damage mage."

Well I would put some AP into your health and mana tanks. That should help you last longer. And get some gossamer or phase armor as your cloth burden is too high. It also gives you some magic accuracy as well. Try to get your burden under 20, and keep your PA as high as you can. It will usually be half, or less, of your MA. Use shield all the time when in an Arena or Item World. It will raise your support Prof.

I forgot to ask. I am using light armor right now. (From top to bottom) Is it a good choice? Or should I go cloth?

Any good stores you recommend for this type of armor? I've got money to burn for now as H@H will provide enough credits to keep teching AP for a while.

If you have money to burn, try checking out some auctions. You don't need really high level armor yet, but see if you can find some gossamer elementalist armor, Your gossamer armor gives you INT and WIS attribute bonuses, and a magic accuracy bonus, which helps. An elementalist armor will help you you with ELEM prof bonus. Look for decent PA as well.One piece of armor won't give you everything you need, but 5 should help. If you check out auctions, maybe try and find a really good robe first, and work from there. I always try and find pieces that give me a lot of bonuses. Other types of suffixes help with SUP, CUR, etc.
