Tried Rapier + Force Shield at Nightmare IW. with 35.8% block, 32.8% parry.
omg I didn't need a SpiritShield, and OC was increasing even when activating spirit stance... this is fun by far.

don't you use scripts like Hoverplay or Mousemelee? they will allow you to hover on enemies' names with the mouse, rather than clicking.

I sometimes hold numkeys when there are less danger, but haven't tried any scripts yet because I fear the accident. I read those descriptions for the first time, and noticed that there are ways to prevent danger. cool I'll try it too, Thanks!

Hey,
My plan is to max it's PT. Does it matter what difficulty I have set whilst clearing?

Also, I wish to upgrade it with the forge. Is there anything I should think about while doing this, or just click on whatever and upgrade?

Lastly, if I want to soulfuse it, should I do it right away or wait until higher level?

Oh yeah, here is the picture for item. I will learn how to make it to a line of text someday!

Apart from these questions, are there any general things I should avoid doing that would only bite me in the end?

Anyone who wants to play past level 250 should consider scripts to be 100% essential. At the very least, try HV Keybinds.

Higher is better (IWBTH is best), otherwise it takes forever. (though you might not be able to handle that difficulty at your level)

Don't upgrade physical damage past 5, BoS are too expensive. Actually, don't upgrade anything past 5, since it's only Exquisite. You might ignore Physical Hit Chance if you want, especially with 1h you'll almost never be evaded. Everything else is nice or at least all right to upgrade.

The sooner you soulfuse the sooner you can gain PXP at double the rate. Go for it.

Press c while the mouse is over the equip to open the equip's link in a new window, then copy and paste the URL.

Other things? You're 1h, right? Hopefully you have a kite shield or buckler of barrier with decent block, that way you can forge it to 5 easily (force shield costs too much to forge). The initial few levels of forging are the most potent and really help, and block is the most important stat for 1h. If it's pretty good quality and you have some funds, you could buy some Binding of Barriers and forge block to 13 or so. That's what I wish I would have done when I was starting out, it's a huge boost to defense and most materials are returned from salvaging anyway.

Other than weapon and (an unlikely) high quality shield, avoid soulfusing anything else. For lower level players, soul fragments are next to your most important resource. The faster you level up, the more quickly you can buy high quality gear cheaply - higher quality stuff is very valuable if bound to a low level, but can be bought for much less at higher levels due to overabundance. So, you might even consider soul fragments to be worth some thousands of credits; use them wisely, or not at all after your weapon is soulfused.

bad potencies (that seems like OP3 and SS5 to me), low PA stats. but nice piece nonetheless. i would've been quite happy if i had an END Rapier at your level (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif)

Yes I'm 1h currently with http://hentaiverse.org/pages/showequip.php...;key=f3d3f80d9b (thank you for telling me about link) however no plans on upgrading it. But figured I should perhaps wait some levels before using the one I shall upgrade on.

Which is: http://hentaiverse.org/pages/showequip.php...;key=d266632e59

I just soulfused my rapier. Will not soulfuse anything else and stack the fragments. Very keen with the daily encounters.

Shall try to upgrade slots I'm using to lvl 5. What is a Binding of Barriers though?

use it to rape goddesses at the end of T&T. or TT&T ar normal, if you have a bunch of ToBs lying there. i guess you have to be quite tanky though - since attacks are stronger past a certain number of rounds. probably full Shade of Fleet set + Haste + Shadow Veil may be a nice option. not even the need for them to be Savage or to boost Crit in any way

edit: obviously, you have to use it as a melee and the tree HAS to stay alive. no point otherwise (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

yep. if you note i suggested him to be quite tanky and a build that emphatizes evade and attack speed. if at my level you can already have 65% on-combat evade, i bet he can have at least 75 or so. plus a bunch of parry and resist. with SS and SoL he shouldn't have any problem (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I think he will use full mage set ( maybe ) since his WTB thread change into mage related things (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

he has been melee for 500 levels, are you telling me that he doesn't have at least a decent Power or Shade set available? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

Using my shielding plate set, staff is at normal condition though. Slowly playing arena with 2700 damage.

that's another option. and sure, why should you break your staff? you're only trying to see if this works afterall. optimizing it comes later (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

What about going on GF? You don't have to think as much on that, but for prof you don't want to maximize runtime. You want to simply grind the prof out. So equip a crappy staff that deals horrendous damage and keep whacking away. Staying in the round or as long as possible.

On that note, the seal has been lifted of changing my email address. WOOOOOO! I missed mooglemail and bazaar so bad.

true. but GF is an unknown land. on the other hand, you know everything about either T&T and TT&T, especially how many opponents per round.
also, arenas' mobs don't have a multiplier for offense, HP or what else, at least unless you pass a certain number of turns. either way, the goddesses are surely easier to deal with if compared with a horde of celestials and dragonkins (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I've not really had an understanding of GF. Are you suggesting it's utterly random with a % increase in difficulty per set rounds?

I.e I could meet as you suggest all dragons and goddesses in any number of rounds?

I've never really had a chance to complete 1000gf rounds as I've been focused on gaining levels from arenas and not draining my stamina too much.

Did my staff power leveling *cough* with a CRUDE staff from bazaar and ROB @ PF. You do not die (how could you with just 1 mob facing you), when you stay below FSM...
- use absorb and buy some potions and elixiers before you do a 7k turn Konata
- no Imperil.
- adjust hover-play and burn some mana and spirit....
- be sure to wear LIGHT or HEAVY armor, because staff does magic dmg. So no INT!
- you can prolong this with the staff with low condition, I am unsure if a 0% staff is valid (but that is interesting!)
- monster gets agitated after 2k turns, but who cares?^^

Edit: You can use haste, because any evade is for ARMOR prof, so the gain on parries can be ignored. The sole repetitive whacking does the grind - even with staff profociency....
