QUOTE(jacquelope @ Nov 2 2015, 23:28)  LOL I was only kidding about that. I'm on a quest to reach 5900-6000 ADB not sure if Shade can get me there.
yes, it can. actually, my DW set has higher ADB than my 1H (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) QUOTE(jacquelope @ Nov 2 2015, 23:28)  But more importantly light armor pushes evade which messes up my OC. And I really need OC now because of my love for the OFC!
OFC is only a tool. Spirit Stance is the way (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) This post has been edited by Scremaz: Nov 3 2015, 00:36

QUOTE(odinsphere9 @ Nov 2 2015, 22:20)  i wanto ask something about lv300+ i hear after that lv we can do arena more easy who can explain me why is that ... we get something in lv300 or what? The higher level you are, the better abilities you have from AP, the more proficiency bonuses you have, the better gear you have (correlation only), the more perks you have (correlation only), the cheaper usable high-quality gear is, etc. Just like level 0-50 is extremely tough and 100-150 is significantly easier, so is 300-400 much easier than 200-300.

Well, actually i think defense becomes better even with same gear. More or less our attack depends only on gear. We get a bit more power, but also monsters get better defense. But if we look at our defense, than usually we get much more. Monsters get not so big damage increase, but we get many increases and we have multi-steps. Its our hp pool, after that chance to skip damage (evade and so on) and finally chance to reduce damage (pmi, mitg). And each increased.

Yeah, good gear on a higher-level player will usually be more effective for them than the exact same piece on a lower-level player - a separate effect from higher-level players just plain having better gear. The one exception is proficiency cotton, which scales up more slowly than level gain. So 2.0 prof with a soulfused set at level 400 might only be 1.85 prof at level 500. I forget the exact numbers. I've been thinking about mage damage. On one hand, I want to do more damage - more MDB, EDB, intel/wis, prof, perks - but on the other hand, something like half of all turns are spent on Imperil - unaffected by damage. So even without any overkill/spillover, double damage would only reduce turns required by 1/4th or so. (A bit more due to less damage taken -> fewer Cures) Unlike for melee, more damage seems underwhelming. Useful, but not as useful as it could be.

I think it's because we don't have that many monsters around that particular level range though O 3O I had to fight with top power level monsters even when I was around 250. 50 levels later I'm still fighting them, but I got much stronger because of better abilities and stat scaling so it got easier O 3O I remember there were some rules like "you cannot encounter the same monster for 10 rounds", and "you cannot encounter monsters from the same owner in the same round", so the "encounter monster with similar power level range" became kind of useless. We can solve it once for all if someone can persuade Tenboro to confiscate all monsters from those big farm owners and give it to everyone else >:3

It's now 2 hours into IWBTH DwD and I'm at Round 70. Sparked 11 times already due to SG one-shots. I haven't even gotten to 2 SG's yet.

its definetly not your armour not your spells nor your dmg.. which is fine maybe make a video of your playstyle and we see what is wrong.. or maybe your internet is so slow that even a turtle can take over lol

No, it's that I take 40+ hits to kill a SG. And I am constantly re-sparking, curing, going to pots, and to kill them in 41 hits I have to do Imperil, too.

If you use weapon skill it will be faster, and maybe infuse the weapon for 4 hours if you haven't already

Buy Average junk from bazaar and fill out all your slots. Grindfest and IW won't give you any income, but there the monsters will generally do less damage than in arena and RE. Light armor is probably the best choice for lower level players. QUOTE(jacquelope @ Nov 3 2015, 03:46)  No, it's that I take 40+ hits to kill a SG.

This sort of thing is one reason why people like forging and IWing gear, even though they know it'll be replaced eventually. On soulfused Power Slaughter, it's worth it.

What do you mean weapon skill? I have the 1H abilities all filled and I had Dark infusion active when I was taking 40 hits to kill SG's.

Yeah my power slaughter is soulforged except one that is L304. That Exq gear really is holding me back as I suspected.
