my 2 lvl 1000+ never give me anything good since my return now (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif)
just bunch of HG/MG mats (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

I decide to stop feeding them chaos token at this moment , better spend for unlocking slot (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)



I need that chart of the number of crystals/cost required to bring a monster to a certain PL :-/

monster lab is not so profitable at this moment cause any mats price is drop down (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)


Well, I see it this way. Everything in HV is deflating slowly (in some cases, not so slowly). So there's no point in keeping 200k crystals in my inventory. I should either:
- feed them to some monsters until they reach an optimal PL (500 to get chance of HG, 750 to remove chance of LG); or
- sell them to somebody. If I need more crystals in future, I can probably buy them back at a lower price in future.

That up to you to decide (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
I think it's better just sell it to WTB (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I don't think HG price will reach it peak again like in the past cause too many high lvl mobs now (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

A bit question, just cramming the wiki but wants to make sure of some of them.

1. about level scaling equipment. is this meant that If I somehow found some peerless equipment early (let's say lvl 100-ish) and I'm content about it, I could use it until lvl 500 since the stats would increase as I increase my level?

2. about haste and action speed. is faster action speed allow a player to act twice in a turn or trigerring new turn without waiting for monsters to act?


1. For now, yes. But the boss has hinted that this level scaling mechanics will change drastically in the next HV patch.

2. Yes, it is possible. If your action takes very little time (in the extreme example, using a gem takes no time), you can perform another action before the monsters can.

Note that some effects happen in "real" time regardless of whether you are hastened.. Eg, Regen happens every turn if time proceeds at 100% speed. But if you are hastened, you may have a new action before the Regen effect happens.

Thank you, I think I mistakenly think that the first number in the battle log is turn number and the 2nd is number of acts done in that turn..

I prefer your second rapier (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

better PA chance & ethereal is not that much good in rapier since it have low burden and interference ( not like 2H weapon where ethereal is great ) (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

you should auction your first rapier (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

The demon one is better in every aspect, higher pab parry and crit chance. The slight wd edge in the ethereal one is nothing. Is this a trick question?

5.9 turns/round @ nintendo GF.
The ping is slightly lower after switch to a new router. But still slow (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif)
People who can go over 3 turns/sec can have a turn within 2 second, or 2000 second for a complete GF (if he can survive (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) )

The income in GF is slightly better than arena. As arena has never given me good drop.

I'm seriously thinking about sell one of them... and heavily forge the other to see what i can do on 1H PFfest... so that's the doubt, which one to keep... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Recently I notice these two abilities (yeah, I never put attention to them, Im that bad) and I'd like to ask:
How good are Protection and Drain augment? they are worth it for melee? what am I doing with my life I should have unlocked it, zillions ago?

protection augment is good. as for which one to pick i couldn't tell you which is the best; it depends on your style and wht weapons/spells you're using. play around with them and see which one you like. no need to go past the 1st level if you don't want to imo

drain augment is only useful for spirit theft, which you can't profit off of at your level

Spike shield can give you a bit more defense or offense. Go for it, you have spare mastery points, there's no downside.

The Drain augments are only good past level 300, or if you're mage on SG arenas. Otherwise, mana required > mana / spirit regained.

Lightly forged ex_max set. 200% proficiency. With DD .
The most important thing is 4 turns T3 cooldown.

It would be nice to get this into the monsterlab wiki page. I've OCR'ed it (using my eyes and fingers) into a spreadsheet, but my eyes glazed over when looking at the mediawiki table markup syntax. Adding an img would still be nice though.

Do you use the T3 at the start of each round (ie, manually firing it), or simply on rotation in spellspam?

Hmm, maybe it doesn't matter if it's 5-6 turns per round. But if it were 10 turns per round, putting T3 on rotation make it fire when unnecessary (eg, only 4 mobs left)

I only put them on rotation. Even if there is only one monster left, I still use T3 when available.
choose manually based on situation is too tiring. Not using T3 besides turn 1 is not efficiency time-wisely.

BTW, 4 turns coodown of T3 means I could use T3 every 5 turns. So that 5-6 turns per round imply that I need 1 T3 in every round. I think people with 5T cooldown will take one turns more in average, assume he have the same fire power as mine.
