QUOTE(Superlatanium @ Aug 23 2015, 19:27)  If 1h, wind isn't a good idea, because 1h would usually rather take the chance at blocking (or not blocking) than to evade. Fire is OK, but I think Frost minimizes HP damage taken overall. (because Fire won't reduce HP damage taken from SP attacks) But, Fire is also a more common damage type, I think.
QUOTE(Void Domain @ Aug 24 2015, 05:47)  This is wrong, wind and ice should be the same. You get hit less often and you block less often.
QUOTE(Scremaz @ Aug 24 2015, 10:18)  to be sure we'd need someone to do a high-level arena (DwD? ED?) at high difficulty with both spikes to have a decent pool of datas to compare (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) So much food for thought. Still using wind right now but after seeing these comments might try fire and ice and test them out. Just stuck with wind because from memory at really low level/bad gear (i.e. not much block or no spirit shield due to lvl req) wind increases survivability in the same way shadow veil does in getting hit less often. Although I know both (evasion in general) are not recommended for 1h. Nah changed my post back to my original question, was confusing myself big time (probably still gonna retire to sleep). What spike shield to get for mages? Is spike shield really that important? Thanks and forgive me for my funny post. My only excuse is that I've been recovering from sickness lately and pretty slow on the uptake right now. EDIT: Removed a funny editing of my post confusing spike shield with actual shields and just pretty much I think I should retire to sleep due my illness screwing with my mind.

QUOTE(nobody_xxx @ Aug 24 2015, 19:37)  get some annoying problem lately (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) it seem my portable chrome v31 is kinda slow/like alot of spike when playing HV even though my ping is normal (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) ~ using normal chrome or iron ( get alot of flashing ) (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) already doing everything including clear cookies,cache,reinstall,flush DNS , nothing working (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) no virus or malware + hardware is normal , already check them using various sofware and cmd (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) is this have some connection with me that need to use VPN or anonymox extension to visit HV ~ just to open HV than I disable it ( thanks to my goverment for this ) (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) If your ping is normal and there's nothing active at layer 4 and above in between (such as a transparent proxy), then it should not be the fault of the network. But even 1% of packet loss can cause intermittent slowness which isn't easily seen in your ping. Maybe let your ping run for a couple hundred counts and see if there is any variance. Do other browsers have spikes? (Eg, if you just lean on the repeat key while fighting FSM). If you have access to a VPN, there's no harm trying that to see if it improves I guess. Better still, rent a cheap VPS and run a VPN server + H@H client on it (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I'm back again yah.
1) I found it pretty difficult to go my way through Arenas. Around a year ago I could do most of them on Nintendo+, now I'm happy to go on hell for the first few ones. Was there a huge change on monsters or equipment ? I don't want to believe it's only the change on potions who did that (but maybe...).
2) Is there a higher chance to drop cool stuff through hourlies nowadays ? I got three magnificent and two exquisite in a few days, which is pretty shocking and disturbing for someone as unlucky as me (I have Scav 29, LoTD 12 and quartermaster 8).

1) Could be the Min PL change from 0.83. There been some discussion of trainers potentially beefing up mobs too. Also wasn't difficulties tweaked slightly due to removal of battletoad. 2) From 0.82 the drop rate of RE was increased significantly from memory. EDIT: Although I'm not sure if further tweaks were made in 0.83. But pretty much in 0.82 10B confirmed I think about half of the legendary equipment came from RE and we should "get them in". (can't trust my memory right now) This post has been edited by rfEH: Aug 24 2015, 14:30

QUOTE(Fudo Masamune @ Aug 24 2015, 14:38)  yes, there used to be available, and even forgeable even if it was a whole new PAB. but they will soon be retired by tenboro - it will be funny to see whether all those gears will become (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) and just FYI, due to a bug even potencies lv6 or 7 are reported to exist

I'm switching over to a holy mage, should I go for radiant or frugal Heimdall equipment?

I'm not gonna start a new thread just for this, but does anyone have some spare scrap cloth and wood? All of my equipment is broken and I have nothing to fix it with.
I can trade you some low/mid grade wood, metal, cloth or leather.

I just realised I wasn't using the right abilities, since the stuff got all shuffled after I-don't-remember-which-patch. Suddenly it's a bit better (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif)

salvage crappy cloth armor drop for scrap cloths, or crappy staffs/shields for wood. if you salvage something < superior quality, you'll earn only scraps. superiors, scraps + LG material. exq, scraps + MG material. mag/leg, scraps + HG material. rare tiers (phase or force shields) even energy cells

If you use a Flower Vase and Bubblegum and combine that with Heartseker and Spirit Stance, does all of that stack? I'm about to become eligible to do FSM and I want to make sure he gets really, really, really dead - and not me instead.
