QUOTE(Darknessy @ Dec 19 2015, 19:07)  Grats, pretty decent for a first legendary. Think u can keep it and use it when u hit around level 200~ (People usually switch to 1h + shield around that time and rapier is weapon of choice for mainhand). Not an ideal suffix but nevertheless, decent find.

Ive checked my average fire mage. As expected its 750 turns in 6 minute (slightly lower than 2,1 t/s).

Hello experts, just want to know if Capacitor is useful for 1H + power slaughter. I've got 4 of my heavy power set (helmet, armor, leggings and boots) with Juggernaut Lv.5 so i'm wondering if i should reforge the last one (gauntlets) and try again to get Juggernaut or let it stay on capacitor? Reforge or not, that is the question (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

QUOTE(cichy133 @ Dec 19 2015, 02:12)  I asked the same question few days ago and everybody said that bindings quality is not dependant on monster level. Theoretically even lvl 25 monsters can bring slaughters and destructions.
yep QUOTE(Ea-Moon @ Dec 19 2015, 03:03)  And they have for me. EDIT: For Dual-Wielding I've had a Club of Slaughter in my Main Hand and Rapier of Nimble in my Offhand, maxed-out Offhand chance. Should I switch that around?
probably a Rapier of Balance with maxed parry will be better for damage, but this way it should be safer QUOTE(jacquelope @ Dec 19 2015, 06:06)  Worth anything?
you have a PM (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) QUOTE(jacquelope @ Dec 19 2015, 10:15)  Regen and Heartseeker being by far the most expensive spells of them all. And, well, SG's are mostly harmless until they're not and then WTF OMFG SPARK!!! Yeah, happened twice tonight. None of the sprites, anthros or celestials got the honor of kicking my teeth in like that. Probably because I practically ran them over in my Bubblegum Flower Vase Spirit Stance Mass-Imperil murder death kill rampage.
Sometime next week I plan on buying IA2... so what should I have for IA2? Without haste that takes me down to Protection or Spirit Shield.
i suggest you Spirit Shield. Protection has the least priority for IA QUOTE(doom9ra @ Dec 19 2015, 10:18)  you mean,if i'll not use haste and SV,i'll counter more and have more OC, and my Clear Speed will increase?
my IAs SoL Haste SS
Is it better to change Haste to protection?
you will also take more hits, i guess... QUOTE(Void Domain @ Dec 19 2015, 11:15)  I normally do t&t ~510 seconds and today without haste its 467 seconds.

Good sides of jug is: 1. Slightly lower amount of cures. 2. Slightly lower amount of spirit shield damage. For example with mage before jug iw i had a bit sp problem. I mean my pot drops wasnt enough, so sometimes i had to buy sp pots (not very often). But after 25 jug its positive income. If you dont cure often then probably also dont have high sp damage. In other words additional jug isnt significant. QUOTE(Scremaz @ Dec 19 2015, 14:18)  i must be doing something horribly wrong, i guess... (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) You just need good passive income. For example 100+ monsters. With active playing its something ordinary for any 400+ player. After that you can buy/forge without much problems even slaughter/phase. It just snowrolls. Top isnt very affected by it, because its not very big difference, but first 50-100m in set (training, perks, gear, forge, iw and other stuff) is rly big step. And other big step is good setup. I mean the best browser, font or something else for highest t/s. It should be 4 t/s with pressed down key and time between rounds shouldnt be high also. In real combat it ll be lower or even much lower, but main reason dont have any interfering thing besides ping. This post has been edited by nec1986: Dec 19 2015, 13:42

hey nec, if i'm just casually training my elemental proficiency by doing hell difficulty, what should i use? My current elemental proficiency is 283.47. If i use 3 prof cloth and 2 phase, i have 176.0% Fire EDB, Effective elemental proficiency 636. If i use all 5 phase (2 of which are lower level superiors), i have 263.9% Fire EDB, Effective elemental proficiency 375. Which one would u recommended?

Umm ok. But another question, i just IW it and it hit capacitor lvl. 3 at one go. Now for example, if i get juggernaut next time, is it good or is elemental - proof better? Like: Capacitor + Jugg or Capacitor + Elemental-proof better?

About level 250 onwards u can switch from light armor to heavy. Its around that levels that u have more survivability, higher levels in spirit shield and stuff. Before that, should stick to light armor and make use of the evade and resist.

QUOTE(izpekopon @ Dec 19 2015, 18:34)  Ytd i tried doom9ra's suggestion, the t/s improved slightly (My prev t/s is 1.6 +-, now 1.8 +-). Any other suggestions or configurations that can increase my t/s? I'm using firefox and reloader script.
Did you guys run in incognito mode? (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) I tried ramdisk before but didnt see any real improvement.

For me i tried using incognito mode awhile back, didn't feel any increase in t/s though. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) I'm always stuck with around 1.5~1.8 t/s.

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) I'm always stuck with around 1.5~1.8 t/s. That may be your problem, your variance is too big its very difficult to see any small delta. I think my t/s is within +/- 0.05 most of the time and clear time that matches it. Is the 1.8 t/s from sg arenas? Because sg arenas are always higher t/s. If not you can use battle_stat_ex and add "(data.turn/totalTime).toFixed(3)" to the button display and monitor your t/s to see its highest and when it drops.

QUOTE(izpekopon @ Dec 19 2015, 14:19)  hell difficulty, what should i use?

Without imperil? In this case first one should be much better. Our first goal is always to get mitg reduction and you native prof is already high. At you current stage you should aim at around 0,7-0,8 prof with imperil or full 1 without imperil. So in other words if you get more with imperil (and you ll get with time) then just replace weakest one to phase. It ll give you slightly higher clearspeed. QUOTE(The Magi @ Dec 19 2015, 14:30)  But another question, i just IW it and it hit capacitor lvl. 3 at one go.

If you have good defense then iw is almost useless. In other case jug is the best. Ive decided to make it more clear. With my old 1h set i have around 80% pmi and 60% block. So i dont cure at all. Ive did that for old pot system in fest, because we had only 15 pots for few hours run. Now my regeneration in 2-3x times higher than income damage in arena. Its huge reserve. So any iw is just useless, because it wont change real fight situation. But the more you cure the higher value iw has. For mage it can be easy 1 cure in few rounds. This way jug is shining.

Sorry i think i missed out some details. Before ytd, before i config to ramdisk, my t/s have always been 1.5~1.8, I only can get 1.8 t/s +- in the morning or late night like 2am (GMT+8), other than that during afternoon~evening its usually always 1.5~1.6t/s. I noticed this pattern for awhile now. After config to ramdisk ytd, its seems to be mostly 1.8 t/s +-. Compared to before, its much stable now. QUOTE(nec1986 @ Dec 19 2015, 20:00)  Without imperil?

Sorry, didn't understand this (highlighted) part. And thanks for the reply. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

With imperil all prof higher than 0,7-0,8 should be converted to edb. Atm you have 284 native prof with 3 prof cloth. After some time you ll get cap native prof (+61) and overall it becomes 636+61 which is full 1.0 prof factor. Its first step and you can replace the worst cotton item to phase. Second step ll be forge or prof perk. As i remember you have nice pants, so it ll give huge prof amount. So even with 2 items you ll get full 1,0 factor and again you can replace one cotton to phase.
So you can see in ideal situation its 0,7-0,8 with only 1 cotton. Other 4 slots is phase which gives huge edb amount.

i c, so any prof factor above 0.8 is excess, thanks i understood. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) IIRC, the one with the said nice pants was cichy, i think my main prof item would be my cap, i forged the prof to level 15 for now. Should i continue forging the cap or forge pants instead? What i meant to ask is, which equipment slot would be best for the prof cloth in 4+1?
