QUOTE(Nekokon @ Nov 23 2015, 23:11) 
Its quite interesting, because 1h also means counter attacks with stuns. Its huge defense burst. But also that means no staff abilities. I ll test with 4+1 and 3+2. Dont have good buckler with forge, instead i ll enchant a bit. And also use fiery waki, because it gives me edb. Stats: (IMG:[ 114.imagebam.com] http://114.imagebam.com/download/amqeAowS2dCAnT7NBapyQg/44902/449012451/stats.JPG) About feelings. Its very safe, maybe i can even clear full pffest. I dont even have full potential, because good legendary nimble waki with forge gives huge parry amount. Damage lower, but looks not so bad. I ll update a bit later with more details.

QUOTE(Drag00noid @ Nov 23 2015, 20:56)  i'm sorry if i'm interrupting the topic.
just want to ask some advice on 2-handed build; is this good?
i only got back after 2 or 3 years not playing HV lol.
I've sent you some stuff, check out your MM. As for stats, you can use: STR = DEX = AGI = END = WIS >> INT. Or you can put a few more points on the stats the most boosted by your gear, that works too.

A little bit of an oddity: when I change from my Equipment Set 1 to any other Equipment Set, my HP and MP bonus drop to 0%, but it goes back to normal when I go to Equipment Set 1. Am I missing something here? I don't see any Hath Perk that changes this or anything in the Wiki that says why.

You have to slot your abilities for each equipment set.

QUOTE(Scremaz @ Nov 23 2015, 16:22)  even worst, i guess. you will lose too much firepower. probably with 1st gen BC pieces, but still you would lose too much other useful stats
Most of mage's firepower comes from phase, just like power armor but on a much bigger scale (up to 300% damage, not just about 30 40% damage like power armor), so taking off the staff won't have that huge different. And I already know that build will have weaker damage, but the huge increase in defensive might worth the trade off. It's not an endgame build whatsoever, just a temporary fix for people having trouble here and there (can't find good equipment, switching from melee to mage,...) just like how you use protection armor if you're having trouble surviving as melee.

Alright. Send back the stuff you don't use, that will help someone else (and preferably, don't equip that stuff, or you will assign it your level). (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Ah, thanks, I guess that's what I was missing. I suppose that makes sense, so that I wouldn't have to change out DW Abilities for 1H either when changing sets.

Thank you so much XD Also, I prefer double battlecaster since it gives me about 30% mana usage reduction :3 That and spirit stance is awesome X3 On other hand, you have 7 equipment sets Q xQ This post has been edited by Nekokon: Nov 23 2015, 23:01

It's untradable, and always at your level. Also, the potency you gain from IW and forge is doubled, making it easier to raise it to lvl 10. This post has been edited by Dan31: Nov 23 2015, 23:14

Actually it might be not only temporary stage. Idea is very decent.
Instead editing ive decided just post new one. Ive done 4+1 100 rounds in pffest and used 0 cures. With mage its probably ~80. Even with not optimal set its very safe. Ive spend 1600 turns and my ordinary d be ~1000, but i also have slightly higher t/s because i did it in 11-12 minutes (looks like 500 rounds in hour). After that ive tested 3+2, but this time my edb was only 203. After 50 rounds its same result, so i just stopped it.
So style looks not so bad. In arena its 0 cures. Absolutely. And for mage its something incredible. At the same time speed remains quite solid. After that i did in ordinary way. 100 rounds in 9 minutes, 920 turns with 62 cures.

4 + 1: Does prof slot matter? Robe looks tempting because it has highest stats and would mean much cheaper forging, though it means EDB loss.

so, basically you're saying staff is almost useless (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) just wondering, waki of nimble only for parry, no other big reason, right?
