afaik, at a certain point jacob (fakku's admin) was a bit hungry for money, so he bought rights for many publications, leaving the scene without many supplies. or something similar (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Could I get some advise? So, I am pretty much clueless about mage stuff, and by clueless i mean: But due to recent RE drop buff I was blessed with something like this. In pre-patch standards it has really nice rolls but I have no idea if it is actually relevant now and if anyone is actually using focus staffs. Is is useful in any way, shape or form? I do not plan to use it, either sell or salvage.

QUOTE(okayno @ May 28 2015, 00:57)  And just to keep this related, on a scale of 1 to 10, how stupid am I for going dw/arcanist and prioritizing attack speed?
1/10 (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) For DW, Shade is good. But Arcanist is so so. Negation is better. Attack speed is "necessary" for DW to play safely in PFUDOR.

I do not plan to use it, either sell or salvage. Top class mages don't use Focus Staff. They prefer either Destruction, Proficiency, or Matching EDB Staffs. But I was looking for something like that to do some tests. (To see if Focus Staffs can fare well in this patch) If you wanna sell it, you can send it to me with 1m CoD. (I would have made you a higher offer if it was Redwood. That's the one I'm searching for) This post has been edited by tetron: May 27 2015, 21:41

Is there a particular reason training's have a cooldown? Because I'm impatient, the cooldown makes me never want to upgrade them.

Attack speed is "necessary" for DW to play safely in PFUDOR. I do arcanist because of heavy reliance upon depreciating and for the sake of general efficiency. I also have a lot of arcanist "classic." Significantly more useful than token amounts of int (completely useless now) and wis with shitty resist. So 1 to 10, how stupid?

Again 1/10 (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/duck.gif) Cause, old Arcanist is very very good. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

assuming 10/10 is going staff + naked, 3-4/10 you can make life a bit easier and throw on 1-2 pieces of fleet/shadowdancer since arcanist has a tendency to roll with shit evade. make it even easier by getting at least SS 6 from both your weapons so you can go full savage instead of full agile

Am working on the SS, even though it only goes up to five, and I keep having to reset because I keep getting overpower. I've also got this weird dream of one day being able to hit frenzied blows three times per backstab. I also have an aversion to inconsistent bonuses. also I've done staff + naked before. seems to work about as well as dw+shade. This post has been edited by okayno: May 27 2015, 23:14

QUOTE(TygerTyger @ May 28 2015, 04:24)  What happened? TLDR?
Wanimagazine sold its international english license to Fakku, then demanded EH to add all wanimag products to our Do-Not-Post blacklist. Since Wani is a big hentai publisher, many scan and translation were to be deleted. At the beginning only EH was affected, but later on Wani attacked the dark site. Some people suspected that fakku tipped off wani about its existence.

Again 1/10 (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/duck.gif) Cause, old Arcanist is very very good. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) older shade types came with WIS, so i guess it's safe to assume that it does exist a generation of arcanist (that back then still had negation-like resist) with either WIS and high resist. just FYI. QUOTE(okayno @ May 27 2015, 23:08)  Am working on the SS, even though it only goes up to five, and I keep having to reset because I keep getting overpower.
he meant SS6 towards both weapons, so everything between 5~1 and 1~5 should be fine enough. probably more on offhand since it's either a rapier when mainhand is club (thus, not needing neither overpower nor butcher) or a waki (which already has a decent base speed to begin with). at least i think...

it may be not so wrong. afterall jacob is well aware of the existence of this site and sadpanda was basically neutralizing his efforts This post has been edited by Scremaz: May 27 2015, 23:37

Jacob stated several times that he just didn't want the Fakku versions of works on here. He didn't care about things like Wani raws and scanlations, which was probably a PR lie, but who knows. None of this would have happened if people knew better than to leak magazines months ahead of their release dates. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Now for on-topic.

No butcher? Are the numbers that low compared to fatality?

Going off-topic (again), does anyone have rankings for obsolete prefix qualities (bronze, iron, steel, etc)?
