is there a script for logging the total damage caused by an individual monster?

I guess that way you can know which one has a higher priority to be dealt with?

check [hvlist.niblseed.com] jenga's database for class of mobs. be careful to tsukiko tsu-something-kushi, high level celestials (like akroma, ck eclair, celestia lindwurm...) and elementals (like iason mink and ichy ones) because their special attacks may be as dangerous as FSM' one. then arthropods and giants can deal some damage but are also quite resilient, so you may want to keep them last as battery to siphon to recharge your MP/SP bar.
at least, i work this way, even with SG involved...

Oak with high holy and dark for willow? Redwood with high elem prof? What about katalox? Also look for edb suff and mdb for destruction? Its so complicated. D be nice to read some small advices like in this post, but mostly in few words what is rly important for each.


Nothing special. I checked 5-7 pages in wiki and some numbers. Looks like destruction is quite useful or just type+suffix+prefix combo for one element.

Completely matching prefix/suffix/type is the common choice.
Mixing different EDB is for advance users that have already got enough fire power and want something else (e.g. more healing, more counter resist).

As i think buckler is more highlvl gear, because new players doesnt rly need low mana cost. Get all 15 pot slots and thats more than enough. Take force shield with pretty protection and block and it gives good defense.

So probably low tier buckler isnt very popular. Maybe at least Emax block. But probably closer to Mmax.

i have put up a quick script to log damage and crits caused by monsters, showing stats inside monster boxes.

i am not sure whether it is useful. easy one so does not matter (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

tried it. it works, but pagination isn't the best possible

[attachembed=57178]

settings for my font are [blank] / 8 / normal / normal / 0

[edit]: tried to modify the distance from the right border but it didn't work. also, while playing and with [dmg] raising, that section takes two lines, and even the number of crits isn't visible anymore

For reducing 1H reliance on potions, ether theft or spirit theft?
or raising divine/dark not quite worth the hassle?

Neither, once you get to... 300? And with decent equips you shouldn't need to use either.

For optimal speed most use a browser dedicated to HV, I use Iron.

You can use Focus to recover mana so there's no point to ether theft for melee.

Augmented Drain singlehandedly gave me the ability to play PFUDOR arenas indefinitely without the need for potions (and death due to running out). In my experience, nothing else has come close to its utility, other than getting 1 -> ~150+ supportive proficiency making it much easier to cast Cure. Oh, and switching to 1h/shield.

If you have low defenses/mitigation and frequently take significant spirit damage, definitely use Spirit Theft. Mana is replenishable via Focus, but spirit isn't.

I haven't tried Ether Theft, but I'm pretty sure it's not worth it for 1h heavy, since the mana returned looks like it would be barely more than the mana spent, even if you manage to proc Soul Fire on the first try.

The second level of Ripened Soul for Spirit Theft comes at level 300 and is a huge help. Usually you'll be using Disintegrate (level 2 forbidden) on a bunch of mobs at the beginning of a round hoping at least one will proc Ripened Soul, but before level 2 Ripened, the chance of a proc is only around 52%, in exchange for a mana cost significantly more than Cure. After level 2 Ripened, that chance shoots up to 79%. (assuming you have Better Disintegrate, otherwise chances are 41% and 67% respectively) So before level 2 Ripened at 300 you're taking a major risk on losing mana for nothing. The chances of successfully converting mp to sp might not be worth it unless your mp is nearly full. You might just wait until level 300 for level 2 Ripened and more ability points, unless you're feeling like you absolutely need the spirit now.

If you have top-tier equipment, you might have enough mitigation and bonus HP that you just don't need Spirit Theft, and you can just use spirit pots - that's how most high level people seem to play, but if you're like me and don't have great equipment, Spirit Theft can compensate for the significant spirit usage.
