QUOTE(buktore @ Sep 12 2011, 17:30)  If you really have AP to spare, X-Nerf is quite nice. Sometime you get channeling casting something in T&T last round, having X-Nerf to cast in this scenario is not a bad idea. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Other than that, I don't really know what to learn anymore... Spark, maybe? (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) PS. Just look at the EQ thread .... Holy shit! Everyone got a lot of damn nice equips! (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) I might put the APs back to EXP tanks (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

QUOTE(buktore @ Sep 12 2011, 11:18)  Slow is awesome in this patch, more so if you using stun weapon. If you have AP left (i.e. maxed overcharge) and doesn't know what skill you should learn, get it. Just my 2 cent. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) BTW roadgray ... Is the Shield I gave you sucks or something? (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) Thanks for the tip. Gonna try it. Together with OC Boosts instead of XP tanks. 50% more OC should do for some fire power. Hell no. I just haven't updated my signature yet. Mainly because I can't decide what I like better; Shield and Rapier or the overpowered maces. Being lazy doesn't help either but I'll get to it once I get some sleep.

QUOTE(roadgray @ Sep 12 2011, 10:59)  Yay, Heartseeker rocks. With Channeling it lasts 260 turns.
I think I'll reset my abilities and and let go of weaken. I'm using Nerf instead now since weaken can't be cast together with Silence. What should I get instead? Poison?
Poison did unimpressive damage before the patch and crap damage now. But it lasts for a long time and it decreases their spirit/mana regen. Of course, if you are using it with silence, then their spirit/mana isn't something you need to care about really. And it also decreases their chance to evade or something, making you a little more likely to hit them. QUOTE(MidNightPass @ Sep 12 2011, 11:35)  I might put the APs back to EXP tanks (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Exp tanks works now, so if you wanna level faster, that's a good idea. Otherwise there are health tanks, mana tanks, spirit tanks, overcharge......lots and lots of places to sink points into. This post has been edited by Randommember: Sep 12 2011, 12:54

I almost filled up those 4 tanks already (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) 4APs remaining.

How longer does it take for non-eth mace user to kill, say, giant & dragonkin, compared to other kind of mobs or boss ..? (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) I have a feeling that it would probably take much longer (and I heard a few people said, maybe a bit exaggerated, that it took like 10 time slower...) And maybe that might justified the current power of mace. I could try answering this question myself, but I'm lazy, so...

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) They have 50% mitigation, so twice as long in theory and in practice it seems that's accurate or maybe even a tiny bit less (since more of your attacks are with them stunned). Mace is still the only real choice for 2-Handed weapons. It does the most damage AND has the most utility.

So I'm planning on using a mixture of melee/magic, kinda going for a swordknight thing. magic for supportive/cure spells, and I'm currently using 2h weapons. What kind of 2h we would you recommend for this? Or should I use Niten Ichiryu? Also, should I spec any of deprecative spells? Like slow or poison, if I'm going a mainly melee build? So far with my current build I can get to about round 60ish with only a few mana pots. I can post a SS o stats/abilities if needed.
Also, I'm currently using all heavy armor, is this wise? Or should I switch to light? Ill post links to all my armor pieces if that helps too. The weapon I'm currently using i s a 2h sword with decent damage and a 19% chance of bleeding wound for 265 damage for3 turns..

Sword isn't really a good choice of 2H weapon.

So what would you recommend instead? Something that stuns or something that gives armor pen?

Almost no procs, tons of misses, and every single round has at least 3 giants. I feel hated on today (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

speaking of schoolgirls,i have just reached 220 and i found only 3 trophies ( +3 the ones from the last round ) on the Twilight.Is that the common drop rate,and if so does it increase with difficulty? (cleared it on normal since it was my first time ) edit: yeah i meant end of days (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) This post has been edited by mitsos21: Sep 12 2011, 20:36

He is now... And he doesn't seem to like the speed of EoD, that's for sure. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) I would use it even if the benefits in schoolgirls marathon are not count...

I believe what you really meant is "End of Days" right? ... And yes, that's the common drop rate. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) (10% for non-final round) This post has been edited by buktore: Sep 12 2011, 20:07
