Is there any way to reduce monster's resistance to debuffs? Because my imperils are resisted like 3/10 casts.

I'm thinking about eventually ending up as a Mage with Light Armor (I thought about Cloth Armor, but all those prices for Cloth and Crystallized Phason). Given that scenario, which would be the best type of suffix armor to go for: Shadowdancer, for the increased Evasion stat, or Arcanist for the low Interference and Wisdom + Intelligence stats, or a mix of the two?

Either mage with Cotton and Phase, or melee with Light or Heavy. Mage without Phase has only 1/3 or less firepower as ordinary mages, so not only will you not be able to clear with any efficiency (even compared to melee) you'll also be taking a whole lot more damage than any other fighting style. You might not ever be able to play on anything higher than Nightmare or Hard, especially without forging.

"Poor man's mage" is not light-armor mage, but 2h (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Ok I wanna talk hypotheticals for a second.

Let's just say your rapier has 55.76 base Void Damage. So if you slapped in one Binding of Slaughter to jack up your damage by 1% that means your Void Damage would be 55.76 * 1.01 = 56.31?

Izzat true?

If so I don't want to spread any blasphemous rumors but I think 10B has a sick sense of humor and if I upgrade I expect to hear him laughingggggg

Can you mage with any level of efficiency with Phase+1H/force shield?

let's say it's 55.76 with the first 5 upgrades, which give you +11.3%. therefore, its 'plain' ADB is 50.1

another binding will bring you to lv6, which has a +13.1% gain. or also, +1.8% or a 1.016 multiplier if compared with lv5 (the gain compared to previous level)

My rapier is at 55.76 with Physical Damage Lv10 (it was given to me this way). Seeing that I've only ever seen one rapier that's stronger and it's on auction now with a 56M bid, it occurs to me that I'm going to keep this rapier well past L400 rather than L350 which it was rated for. 56 million for a better weapon, yeah, um, no. It's cheaper to raise this one to Physical Damage Lv28 (my current max forge level), no?

lv28 means +37.2% gain. lv10 means your rapier started from 46.72 ADB, thus 888 at your level and currently is at 1059. with all those upgrades you should hit 1218, thus +159 increasing, out of a ~5k pool (read: +3% or so)

did you already hit the point in which your only upgrades are bindings - namely, all power of slaughter and forged until lv5? if answer is yes & you have 2.5M to throw away, then feel free to do it. otherwise, i suggest you to go and look for better armors (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

This is my armor:

As I said, hobbleskirt bullshit armor passing for heavy.

Two dilemmas there:
Upgrading to better armor would probably cost more than 2.5M; heck, upgrading the armor I have to Lv 5 might cost that much; and there probably is no more LU armor left that would be better than that... I already tried and this was the best I could get. I'd need to be near L350 just to soulfuse the higher quality stuff that's available on the HV market.

I just bought Legendary Agile Kite Shield of Warding off the Bazaar (18000c) the level is wayyyyy off though, long way before i can equip it.

Would kite shields be cheaper to upgrade to block level20 than force shields?
(considering force shield needs 20 x Defense matrix modulators)

yes (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

nice block for kite shield (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

boring. expensive.

Maging is Boring? Then what would you call 1H? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)
And expensive? Not at all. Medium quality Maging gears have now become way cheaper than the past. And they do the job just fine.

that guy who told people to bid and then retreat their bids to test said script, right?

Can't remember properly. His username started with "Razor". (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)
But that script was impressive.

are you a fan of bacon?

I'm a fan of ANY tasty food. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Can you mage with any level of efficiency with Phase+1H/force shield?

Force Shield has a shit ton of Interference, which affects Spells. Not just their Costs, but Accuracy and Crit are also affected. So if you wanna mage with 1H, Buckler is a better choice. Though in HV, hybrid mage is a poor playstyle.

Though if I could get my hands on a kite shield like izpekopon found, I'd cut my ITR by almost 66%.

Right now, the max unforged base Block of Kite Shield is 36.02, which is also achievable (and can be surpassed) by Buckler.

yup , new buckler of barrier is good enough even for GF (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

Man, if I could find one of those as LU gear...

i'v looked around, i don't think most LU shields can compete with the stats of newer assigned ones.

Best of luck with the shrining. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

How much dmg does FRD do compared to OFC? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

[Edit]
OFC usually 1 shots (or close to 1 shot) enemies,
FRD seems to hit enemies for about less than 1/4 their hp.
Can't see any fighting style benefiting much from using FRD, so its a useless skill at the moment?
