Lol... don't get why that much fuss about nobody... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Can't understand why people get so mad about his posts... I just think they're funny (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)


Anyway, I think I'm as poor as him... so I'll be sure to let it clear attesting it in all my few future posts... like he do (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I'll take the first one, I want that slaughter one but I don't have enough soul fragments to soulfuse the other. Should I just send you the credits now?


Neither of those rapiers are any good. You should look for something with an Elemental Prefix and 3 PABs (primary attribute bonus). I've still got lots of level-unassigned gear so I'll give you one for free.

For low difficulty (normal-hell) SG arenas, what style has the fastest clearing times? DW, 1H, 2H or beginner mage?



I think DW if your dw-prof 50 or more

That backs stap with high burst DMG thought

Many thanks. I just tried this in Nightmare RE and wow. Though it was against 6 mobs, can't wait to take it up against a full house. With some upgrades this could probably get me through Nintendo mode. Now I have a primary and alternative bangin' ass weapon so I can take one and the other through IW once I get this mana expenditure issue fixed again.

Should I go to an arena with low difficult?

I got lvl 1-100 on normal mode(do a speed run)
And 110-150 on nightmare mode

I still used too much time every day

when I've got lvl 150 I didn't have time for GF again

But I still run a RE normaly

Edit:high > low

That and grinding for crystals when you have crystal perks.

Or if you ran out of arena challenges for the day. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/faint.gif)

Most of my armors is from a kind guy who sold these for newbie for cheap. However, I still can't take IWBH on RE yet.

so my question is:

1. is my 1H + Shield + light armor bad?.

2. what are the main of stats i'm looking for when purchasing 1H/Shield/Light Armor? (Crit chance? Mitigation? Action speed? Evade?).

3. Or should I switch my playstyle? (Eg. 1H+shield+ Heavy Armor / Dual wield + Heavy Armor, etc.)

4. Also, I heard that for 1H playstyle, the weapon is the one providing defenses boost, whereas the armor provides attack boost . I get the power armors give attack boost, but weapon gives defenses boost??? at best, 1H + shield only gives parry& block chance right??

HP = 790, MP = 669

Your 1h + leather is fine, switching to heavy for Power has significant benefits only past level 250-something (so you can use mostly Power armor rather than Plate). If you find yourself taking little damage as you level up more, you might switch out one of your leather for a Shade or two for more damage (but less survival), but that's just an option, and isn't one to spend any money on either.

For 1h/leather, evade probably isn't a great stat to look for. Weapon ADB is first priority, and then probably just the existence of 4 PAB on armor, which you already have - there isn't much to improve on, so probably just save your funds. Your armor and shield are fine (except for level scaling problems, but that's a whole different issue). But your weapon should really be a rapier if you want to play high difficulty - rapier's PA is amazing, and shortsword's bleed proc might as well not exist for how useful it is. I would prefer to use a Superior rapier over a Peerless shortsword.

Armor section only provides the offensive stats if using Power, but of course leather has no real offensive stats.

The defensive part of 1h is the ability to use a shield. Block is incredibly strong - higher block gives you more overcharge, stuns monsters for a few turns, and can negate both physical and magical attacks.

1h+light armor is the most defensive style. If you want more attack you should try heavy with power armor.
DW is only slightly faster than 1h in arena, you should not bother with it.

shield you want block chance, light/shade armor you want every stat, but mostly adb, evd and pab. Optimal roll should be a very high pxp with a low accuracy.

Aghh. Shouldn't have soulfused my sword then. But if I levelup my sword potency to 10, then it becomes void damage right? In the case penetrated armor proc becomes negligible right? or am I misunderstanding something. thanks for your suggestion btw. very helpful (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

No, void is for specific mit. You still have physical mit to go through.

So which one has the most defensive style ? dual wield or 1H+shield??

because I saw some wakizashi has like 34%+ parry chances (and not too expensive) or something. and dex also boost parry chance right? so if I equip 2 wakizashi with high parry chance then won't it become around ~70% parry chance or more????

On the other hand. lets say I go 1H 34% parry chances + shield with 46 %block chance( mega expensive, I definitely wouldn't be able to effort it lol) . that'd make effective damage nullification chance of 100 - (0.66 * 0.54 *100) = 64.36% right?

so doesn't that make dual wield more of a defensive style???

Like Void said. Void (...) damage will ignore specific Crushing/Piercing/Slashing mitigation of monsters, but not overall (physical) mitigation. (there's no player-based void magical attacks)

Yes, Wakis have very high parry, which is good for defense, but 1h + shield is even better, because block negates both physical and magical attacks (parry only negates physical attacks), and because with block, when you automatically counter-attack, you also stun the monster for a few turns (so you could damage and stun 3 monsters a turn, and also attack during the same turn). Oh, and you gain overcharge with block, but not when using DW/parry. Being able to near-permanently Spirit Stance due to high Overcharge is a huge advantage.

Dual-wield is somewhat offensive. Without the offhand parry bonus, most wouldn't have enough defense to survive high difficulties (whereas most decently equipped 1h players could PFUDOR in their sleep).

The day has finally come. My DW proficiency finally surpassed my light armor's.
Now I'm wondering is it worth the effort to get the last 13 or so points so it matches my level or just wait for it to do so naturally.
