QUOTE(Hakrei @ Oct 7 2016, 04:29)  I honestly think IW hates me... After over a dozen resets, I managed to grab butcher and fatality on my 1h, but ended up with 5 butcher, 3 fatality and 1 overpower... Should I keep it? Probably fine for a weapon that's not extraordinary. Fatality might be better than Butcher, but you still have 8 of 9 desirable potencies (and 0 completely useless potencies).

Does parry increase overcharge? If it does then weapons with Nimble suffix is the fastest to gain OC among other suffixes right? And then is it worth sacrificing damage to use OFC more often?

I would honestly pay 4-5M to get a similar IW for my hallowed rapier (>3 months and I still hate the idea of needing to IW it, fuck IW). 8.5 out of 9 is pretty good (I consider butcher and fatality worth 1, op worth 0.5 and swift strike as immediate reforge).

Yes (1H only). Yes. No. This post has been edited by Sapo84: Oct 7 2016, 09:30

I've got a few questions on potions.
1) Do the potion abilities affect Power-Up Gems? 2) Is the Better Health Pots ability useful? 3) Do Health Draughts restore significant amounts of health?

it's cheap, so why not? when you have troubles with Regen only you may want to sink a few draughts, so think about optimizing that as well.

Very good. QUOTE(Sapo84 @ Oct 7 2016, 09:28)  If draughts weren't so cheap (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif) Yeah, probably Draught+Defend Spam for 50 turns is safer.

Is this helmet worth enough upgrading to lv 5 and iwing to improve my current one (17.98 base adb)? I never considered upgrading from a leg non slaughter to a mag slaughter since without MMax stats even with higher adb the loss from crit and pabs would make the mag slaughter pretty much the same if not worse than the leg. But this one has L-range ADB, STR and Crit Damage. And I could make something better than Jug2 on it. The cons are that I have to buy 5 actuators and Iw it, and make 1300 fragments, and if it's worse, salvage it and lose 1 actuator for nothing. Is it worth it?

I've downgraded from leg warding to mag slaughter 2 times, when I was playing 1h heavy. Both times, faster clear speeds. And at the level you are now, you don't need so much protection/warding anyways. I'd go for it! (but I didn't do calculations, I play on 'gut feel')

PSA: Effective Proficiency is a lie, if you check abilities like 1H Damage they change not based on the proficiency but on the float value.

Effective Proficiency is useful for mages to see with perks and equipments how much their total proficiency is. It's pretty obvious that every decimal of proficiency counts, in facts when I level up I continuously gain 1 HP/1 ADB at time once in a while until my prof is capped again xD QUOTE(DJNoni @ Oct 7 2016, 16:16)  I've downgraded from leg warding to mag slaughter 2 times, when I was playing 1h heavy.

Well, I was waiting for calculations...if my adb would increase by less than 50-100, I think I'll stick with my helmet and wait for a legendary power helmet of slaughter. This post has been edited by ppp82p: Oct 7 2016, 16:29

roughly 130 ADB more at your level. i downgraded from Leg-grade to M-Slaughter a couple of times as well, but those were random Legs vs. Savage Slaughters iirc. so, at least double the fun (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

yep. forgot to say it. but mind you, it's ADB only. it will be surely less since i didn't throw in STR and DEX too. but we should still be around 110-120 or so, i guess. This post has been edited by Scremaz: Oct 7 2016, 16:53

I recently got my first monster to PL 500 because the Wiki says it unlocks High-Grade materials as gifts. Should I keep upgrading this monster or pour my crystals into my other 5?

mind you, it simply means you have a chance to earn HGs. a very tiny chance, i'd say. and it still requires 14 HG Cloths to break even of those crystal packs.

I've noticed if you get the scavenging perk as high as you can, the "3 and 4 packs" of materials come fairly frequently. With that, 3 whatever materials, and usually 1 high grade or binding. From the little experience I have, I would recommend throwing tokens at scavenging, and leave the rest till it's maxed at the monster's PL level... ignore the other monsters for now.
