Shrining is somewhat bugged right now. So I'd suggest you to either hold onto it for later shrining or sell it if you're in need for moola.
Someone's already buying them in the WTB.

So...fest gear drop was nerfed. Probably its some kind of restrictions for top grinders. But it also means there is no much sense to play it (high diff). I had much lower credits/gain, but i could get 1leg+6mag each 24k mobs. Now there is no sense in that at all and only exp is better.

Legendary Fiery Rapier of Slaughter
I found this the other day and i feel like it will likely be the weapon i use for the next hundred levels or so. My question is, Should I IW this or possibly soulbind it? Clearly I already started the IW....

Base ADB is in the L-range, parry is nice enough, and PA is good. It looks like a keeper to me. Fiery isn't optimal, but for a Leg Rapier of Slaughter it's worth hanging onto for a long time. If you IW to 10 and soulbind you might be using it for next 200 levels.

Thank you for the advice. Also, how weird is it that I have found a legendary but no Mag equipment?

So... I'm pretty shit at my level right now. I have no legendary gear, and very little exquisite gear.

I have this gear:
http://hentaiverse.org/pages/showequip.php...;key=76b6966fb3

which I equipped before I realized that I was going to be fucked over if I equip it at a lower level. I'm a wind mage, and all my armor are phase gear of Freyr with an average +20% wind damage.

I can't do any arenas above hell - Should I soulbind this staff? The base PXP is 326.

Or should I give up and start grinding 1 handed proficiency? I see that even players at a lower level than me are already finding legendary drops - I assume these guys are players with melee 1 handed that can grind PFUDOR. If that's what I need to do, then I can do it... I've been saving all my superior+ drops regardless of type, so hopefully I can start the ground running.


Edit: Just wtf am I doing wrong? I gained my first 200 levels at 2 weeks, and now I'm just shit... I can't even grind the Hell TT arena right now. 18 levels in 8 days... sigh...

My current stats are:
(IMG:[i.imgur.com] http://i.imgur.com/XnELhcN.png)

And my elemental bonuses are:
(IMG:[i.imgur.com] http://i.imgur.com/Q6cPooH.png)

I'd appreciate it if anyone can give any help/advice, whether on if I should bind any gear, or if I should change my stats, or my strategy.

Neither base MDB nor base EDB are even pre-patch Smax. Although prefix and suffix match, which makes it not trash, it's not good enough to soulbind (unless you have many extras you're never going to use), and maybe not even forge or IW.

Going melee is a good choice. All but the highly equipped mages are going to have serious problems in this patch, especially if the player is a low level. You likely won't be able to get Power Slaughter for a reasonable price anymore though.

Nothing, the boss has just made low-level mage nearly unplayable. (unless the player is fine only comfortably playing Hard/Nightmare)

This is depressing to hear. Especially when GF is a lot more accessible due to the new Restoratives. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions.

Really (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) Should I really, really grind melee? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I always liked the mage archetype. Oh well... ok. I'll begin grinding melee then. May I ask if anyone else also thinks I should grind melee, at this point?


Unfortunately, I don't have a rapier of slaughter, which is what I would need for 1h melee. I do have a rapier of nimble, and an axe of slaughter. But it looks like 1H is the way to go, not a dual wield build... what type of build should I go towards?

Also... it looks like I can only subtract 10 stats at a time.... Is there any way I can reset my int and wis to near 0, so that I can build up the other stats for melee? I know that there's only so many times I can reset my stats per day - is the -10 stats at a time that kind of limit?

expert, need another help

style dual wield.

now I just activated 2nd IA.

the first one is haste, currently for the second I use protection.

-----

another question, for dual wield.

currently I use, rapier of the nimble for both hand. for maximum survability

should I change something ?

You're right that 1h is the way to go. Non-Slaughter has been slightly buffed. I can't say for certain, but you can probably get by without Slaughter. Balance would be next best, and at your level, Nimble would be good too. Given how much potential damage PA stacks give, I think a rapier is still the best choice, especially against FSM and schoolgirls - though if you prefer to play battle series where monsters die in only a small number of hits (4 or less?), a high ADB Axe or Club of Slaughter might perform as well.

-10/day (or, -1 / 2.4 hour) is the limit. But you still want to keep Wisdom high, since non-mages still cast spells frequently enough. Intel is what needs to be lowered, because it's only (very negligibly) useful for prolonging Spirit Stance.

Protection has a low cost and a high duration - putting it on IA rather than manual doesn't give much benefit compared to using Spark or SS or SV (which have higher costs and lower durations).

Spark is my #1 priority on IA because it means I have an extra turn when I'm in trouble (and can Cure or Fullcure while Spark re-activates automatically), and it means I can occasionally take fatal damage a couple turns in a row but still live if Regen procs on that turn. (or, in this patch, if I use a potion; 0 action speed. haven't done that yet though...)

Have you tried a club (Slaughter) for mainhand? I've heard that the stun is quite nice for survivability, as well as having higher weapon damage, and negating enemy parry. (Faster you kill, more XP and other stuff you get per time, even if overall defense is less, after all)

Thanks again.

Wow.. it'll take me 28 days (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) to move from 280 int to ~1 int. Even if I'm cutting half, I guess it'll still take me 14 days. Oh well, it'll take me 14 days to grind one handed to 150 anyway. Thank you!

You could probably just drop Int to a level where cost to upgrade is insignificant compared to the other stats. Given the exponential curve, it shouldn't take more than a few days. (it's all right to keep it there instead of going all the way to 0 because it'll add to base SP for Spirit Stance)
