QUOTE(Acer37 @ Aug 6 2015, 23:04)  If I wanted to turn EXQ + rare gear to energy cells, would it be better to salvage or sell the item and buy the cells? I remember some posts from early .83 saying better items didn't give as many energy cells. We were given all the numbers in the patch thread, so all you have to do is check bazaar price and see if it is greater or less than the average value of energy cell + scrap.

1st question: The wiki mentions that legendary and peerless only drops in hell difficulty or higher but I heard someone got a peerless in normal. Is it confirmed that legendaries and peerless only drops in hell difficulty or higher?
2nd question: Is it recommended to aim for both juggernaut and capacitor potencies on phase?

That is a recent change, so when did it drop for them?

sell & buying QUOTE(Jram @ Aug 7 2015, 06:47)  Is it recommended to aim for both juggernaut and capacitor potencies on phase?
no, you would need too many shards and capacitor isn't really so useful. just go for juggernaut, which is already difficult enough by its own

I ran about 30k rounds of hellfest in 0.82 and not a single leg dropped on me. On ninfest saw 1 leg every 5k rounds, and I've been doing it since. Dunno about peerless.

1. Yes , someone get peerless from normal FSM arena clear bonus in 0.82 (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) For normal drop , you maybe need nintendo above to get leg (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) 2. Jug only is good enough , jug+cap need alot of effort and time to get it unless you are extremely lucky (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Have you got any leg from ninfest since 0.83?

Sell the item and buy the cells. Even now, this is the more profitable policy. Salvaging still doesn't provide more cells than what we can buy after selling the items.

Legendary grade gears now only drop in Hell+ difficulty. Peerless can still drop even in Normal difficulty. QUOTE(Jram @ Aug 7 2015, 10:17)  2nd question: Is it recommended to aim for both juggernaut and capacitor potencies on phase?
For Phase, Capacitor is useless right now. It's far better to have some elemenal mitigation potencies instead of capacitor. Juggernaut is still the king of potencies though. This post has been edited by tetron: Aug 7 2015, 10:02

Is it just me, or does it seem like Random Encounters no longer drop legendaries as frequently as they did when 0.82 was first rolled out? Most of my legendaries these days just come from plain PFUDOR drops while doing arenas. Hell, most of the time it seems like I don't even get equipment drops from Random Encounters anymore.

It feels that way to me too, though I'm still getting a lot of Mag drops from RE.

+1. I get the feeling that it's been steadily and silently nerfed. Of course, Leg still drops, but I think it is less than before.

Yes. Legs still drop from RE (I got a pretty good Leg Onyx Power Protection yesterday), just that it's not as much as it did at the beginning of 0.82. My guess is that the tremendous amount legs generated back then wasn't the intention of Tenboro, so he silently nerfed it. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

You didn't drop any Leg from RE in that "Buffed Drop Period"? (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

For the last 7 days, the Clear Bonus of PFUDOR DwD has always been Mag grade for me. Is this plain luck or something similar is happening to you guys too? (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) This post has been edited by tetron: Aug 7 2015, 12:02

Have you guys noticed that since new patch, when you create a new monster you get this message: QUOTE To activate this monster, you have to feed it enough Crystals to reach powerlevel 100 and give it a name. However, just like before, after you feed them, reach level 25 and name the monster the message disappears, and I'm pretty sure I've gotten gifts from monsters below level 100. Is it a bug or am I missing something?
