QUOTE(Logii @ Oct 7 2015, 08:21)  it would be easy to buff just by changing the last variable to higher number, right? same thinking here. If tenboro approved it, he might have done it along with dw buff in 0.82. Don't hope.

hmm... while we are at it, why not making katanas a hybrid PA/BW weapon as it actually is in RL? this way even niten would be heavily buffed (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) This post has been edited by Scremaz: Oct 7 2015, 19:39

QUOTE(nobody_xxx @ Oct 7 2015, 20:16)  he can get 7 digit credits for that estoc (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) i don't really think so. not without a 2H buff that will bring estocs to be the next bandwagon, that is. nowadays only melee weapons that sell high are rapiers, and it's not even granted they will do

Take a look at last month's auctions. Almost all 2h weapons were cheap as hell, exept some extraordinary high rolled ones that achieved some good prices. Longswords, maces and estocs are almost dead. 1h like short swords and clubs are declining fast. Wakis tend to fall, too, but have at least a chance to stand in a DW / Niten build. Niche rolled weaopns like eth battlecaster are likely to get some credits, but more of curiosity if a build could be valuable with them.

Hah, PF RE is now a complete no-go for me.
Spark, spirit shield, BOOM multiple hits, under 10% health, health potion, BOOM sparked
I re-spark, I have 1 health, DEFEATED.
Try again: same thing, go full cure instead of re-spark, then do spark, they rinse and repeat the process until they wear out my mana on cures spells, finally catch me on pots cooldown, DEFEATED.
Again: OH WAIT A SG HAS COME OUT TO PLAY!!! #$$%#%@@!$^&@$$@!!! And Hong Meiling My Wife!!! Spark, sleep 3 mobs (SG included), BOOM multiple hits from other mobs regardless. Cornered on cooldown.
Bring in a Health Elixir!!!
No SG this time, it just takes longer to die.
Oh and in all PF RE's the mobs now laugh at my rapier and slaughter gear like I'm hurling a spitwad. They can afford to take my hits and wear me down.
Six straight defeats @PF. Been playing IWBTH RE for what, 3 weeks, and no defeats. As of LVL290 PFUDOR on the other hand tells me to fuck the fucking fuckity fuckhouse fuck off.
Such is life in the donut hole...

QUOTE(Scremaz @ Oct 7 2015, 13:25)  no protection and regen in all this? (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) In the first one I didn't even get to regen before I got slaughtered. In the other cases I got them fired off but it didn't matter in any case. I might as well have been hitting those mobs with a crude metal toothpick of newb rustoleum. These mobs went from ~8-hit kills in IWBTH to Outside Context Problem Mode ACTIVATED in PF. They had all the time in the world to wait and wear me out and then catch me on a cooldown.

no, i mean - did you cast protection spell? apart from haste and spirit shield which are in IA, it's the first thing i always do and never died in a RE within the past... don't remember, but quite a few dozens of level (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) however, just tried a PF RE with 2H heavy setup: first spell protection, second regen. no spark needed, only a health potion and a bunch of cures. but there were only 8 mobs, so it's not particularly significative (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

uh, ok. then you may want to consider a scroll to spare one turn... btw, i guess you're going 1H. which prof? QUOTE(jacquelope @ Oct 7 2015, 23:08)  Edit: just did IWBTH RE again... wow, the mobs are unbelievably easier to kill in IWBTH than PF.
which still means a fragment, a good bunch of EXP and almost granted victory (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) QUOTE(jacquelope @ Oct 7 2015, 23:15)  BTW how much should I offer to pay for a full figurine set? I've decided I need that OFC real bad.
roughly 600~700k, i guess. should you open a wtb for 30k each i guess you won't have many problems

I re-spark, I have 1 health, DEFEATED.
Just to make it clear as I am reading: SoL triggers and you instantly re-spark? The buff Cloak of the Fallen should last longer than 1 turn, so when CotF is active, do not waste it's uptime to re-spark, do a re-spark when CotF has 0 turns left. Standing with 1 HP is well, a quite common case after SoL triggers, but always do something to raise your HP. As far as I renember - and I may be wrong! - CotF is not refreshed if another SoL is triggered while active. Meaning you have no "trigger turn" in which you are immune to dmg. That was the main cause for me cursing IWTBH long ago until somebody told me not to respark instantly. So just relax after SoL triggers. Do something to raise your HP, and survive until CotF has 0 turns left, then respark. You should add health, spirit and last elixiers to your battle inventory and use them in such situations. The spirit elixiers are for the excessive SP drain. This post has been edited by Frederiksc: Oct 7 2015, 23:34

Actually i also got the feeling that all of the sudden the PF RE got harder. Thought it was only me... Last few encounters i'm always at the brick of death. Have to manage the item usage very well in order to get that extra turn in for the heal. Could it be that they increased the difficulty?

If you have to use expensive consumables like elixirs, i advice you to try scroll of protection as it should reduce the damage significantly.

Eh my 1h Prof is 290. As for scroll of life, yeah, the real problem is how hard these things are to kill. They just wait me out. I think the system is a bit inaccurate, the difficulty differential is way above x15.0 (IWBTH) vs x20.0 (PFUDOR)... it's more like x60.0 as far as difficulty goes. I was trying PF in hopes of a quicker leg drop. I've got leg drop fever now. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Dere's leg in dem dar hillz!!!(Sorry if that's too corny, just got done being silly with my kids for like 45 mins (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) )
