QUOTE(Dammon @ Mar 30 2015, 07:51)  Yes. Actually, Tenboro recently added a feature to the donation page that will enable you to send a user your bitcoin address from the system. That will let people know for sure that it is your official e-hentai wallet. QUOTE(helno @ Mar 30 2015, 07:58)  Except the order is usually transfer credits first so pick ur customers wisely...

QUOTE(mozilla browser @ Mar 21 2015, 17:35)  What should I aim for next? - forge my equipment? - invest in hath perks - which? - training - which? - others?
QUOTE(mozilla browser @ Mar 23 2015, 11:22)  Thanks. I just did some crunching of monster mitigation data. I believe similar conclusions can be drawn from jenga's db.
Amongst all the monsters I've seen the arithmetic average mitigation for the elements fire/cold/wind/elec/holy/dark regardless of PL was: 47,44,44,44,40,37
When this is constrained to the monsters above PL 1000 (which is pretty much all that high level players will ever see): 50,47,46,45,42,40
Above PL 1500: 61,55,55,54,53,51
Above PL 1800: 69,65,65,65,65,47
Above PL 2000: 69,64,64,64,64,51
I did some simple calculations to whether the proficiency hath perk would be better than the daemon duality (damage) hath perk. I am currently a L371 dark mage, so this is based on dark mitigation. Also, I am calculating the effect of +10% proficiency in 3 scenarios that would be applicable to me: - [first two rows] 5 phase. 0.27 proficiency factor from staff - [middle two rows] 4 phase 1 cloth. 0.56 proficiency factor from staff and 1 cloth - [last two rows] 4 phase 2 cloth. Hypothetical situation where I have 0.90 proficiency factor from staff and 2 cloths. (IMG:[ i.imgur.com] http://i.imgur.com/SL9dM8Z.png) The mana savings columns are based on the wiki proficiency requirements. Modest mana savings across the spell tiers, with maximum savings coming when base proficiency is low. Relative damage uses the average dark mitigation of monsters by PL. It doesn't take account of the monsters' Mmi but that would cancel out. It also doesn't take account of the counter-resist bonus. The additional damage columns compare the relative damage with +10% proficiency vs without. My initial calculations suggested that we get > +10% damage, meaning that the +10% proficiency would be better than the damage hath perk at half the cost. But there was a mistake in that calculation (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Even with my current calculations, the 7% to 8% damage increase is nothing to scoff at. And it still hasn't taken into account the counter-resist. TL;DR - it may be intuitive, but at least for my situation, the proficiency hath perk is much more worthwhile than the damage hath perk. QUOTE(helno @ Mar 30 2015, 13:58)  Except the order is usually transfer credits first so pick ur customers wisely... (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Someone asked me a similar question previously via PM on whether to credits should be sent first or bitcoins. My opinion was that as long as the arrangements are made within E-H forums/PMs or HV MMs, the transactions would be fully captured within E-H. Tenboro would be able to look through the agreements and even reverse the transaction. So I didn't see a problem doing it either way.

The damage perks work with all weapon while proficiency perks only work with one kind of spells. And they stack. BTW, once you get one, you will try to get the other anyway.

My next perk will be Evil Enchantress. Not sure if good idea. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif) I'm just hoping it provides a noticeable quality-of-life improvement.

Yes, that's definitely true! But, it seems to be better to get the proficiency perk first, followed by the damage perk. Also, I've found that I can clear up to the 90 round arenas @ PFUDOR faster as a mage than my 1h + power set. So I'm currently doing melee on the 100 round arena. Maybe in a few more levels, I'd have stopped melee altogether? Yeah, I know I just started some discussion on 2H melee as well. But if it's even slow than 1h + power, then...

What's your current deprecating proficiency factor? Also, which perks did you get before coming to this point? I'm wondering what to aim for after the proficiency and first damage perk.

QUOTE(killergeist7 @ Mar 29 2015, 12:18)  One question thought, why do people accept hath@x where x is overpriced compared to the hath exchange?
People price slighly higher if they want money or mitigate risk of conversion, some price at weighted average so that they are likely to get that amount and some price below when they are trying to attract very rich players to buy items. Eg if something costs 15m creditrs and its a 5% discount for hath, then rich players with loads of hath might consider it more.

Yeah; I can deal with my attack spells being resisted, but Imperil being resisted is one of my largest annoyances. I'm not sure what my Deprecating proficiency factor is off hand, but my effective Deprecating proficiency as of this moment is 511. As for perks, discounting the donation ones, at the present time I have Postage Paid, Vigorous Vitality, Effluent Ether, Suffusive Spirit, Resplendent Replenishment, Cybernetic Implants, Innate Arcana IV, Crystarium III, Eminent Elementalist, and Free-Flowing Dust. Tokenizer 1, Force of Nature, and Innate Arcana V are the other 1k hath perks that I could get instead of Evil Enchantress, but I'm not interested in them. So it's either Evil Enchantress next, or continue saving for Grace and Knowledge. I can't remember when exactly I got Daemon Duality, but I've had it for a long time. I'm pretty sure it was before I bothered with any of the Crystarium perks, and for a fact before the experience perks. It was also before Eminent Elementalist, but only because Eminent Elementalist was added at a later date. QUOTE(EsotericSatire @ Mar 30 2015, 04:41)  I has, barely noticed.

Aw. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) I'll get it anyway. Probably.

Just came across an artifact called a server hard drive while IWing. Anyone know what this is? I thought the only artifacts that dropped now were precursors or figurines (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) EDIT: Looks to be an event since I just got another part (server network card)?

Play on Normal if you wish, it's not like you're likely to get anything useful other than the clear bonus even if you manage to clear on PF. Fighting FSM maybe 90 times on PF has never gotten me anything useful either. If you want to play on as high a difficulty as you can manage, fighting RL is doable on Nintendo or at least Hell at your level, even if you aren't 1h defensive. With all your buffs up, just keep hitting him and using spirit potions, and he'll die before you run out of inventory, assuming you have at least a few levels of Pack Rat. Either keep him silenced or keep Spark up at all times. If you use Silence as well to prevent him from using SP attack that'd probably also allow you to go a difficulty or two higher than otherwise.

which means he has to grind deprecating a lot, since he didn't even unlock imperil (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

The server parts are artifacts. Shrining them should give you the same reward as shrining a normal artifact. When you've shrined a complete set you will receive a special trophy at the end of the event.

Will you get a special trophy for each set shrined or is it just a one time off thing?
