QUOTE(Chraunzen @ Nov 24 2016, 15:36)  I just shrined over 50 artifacts, got a few EDs, a bunch of points and crystals, was this a wise thing to do? I mean, if I'm playing for a long time, wouldn't it be wiser to use the artifacts instead of selling them? My credit income is... Solid, I guess. I can make about 3-7m per month, more if I get a lucky drop. I still have a couple dozen left. This post is mainly for Scremaz (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) Be flexible. Save your artifacts for 1-2 weeks or even 1 month, if you have a project that you immediately need to raise fund, sell them. If you don't, shrine them. Schremaz would say sth like "always sell it, leave the gambling for others" in a few posts before. 'cause... you know, he's not much of a gambler

well, the price of an artifact is currently... uh, something around 20k on WTB. you're (obviously) going for EDs which are valued 93k or so. EDs have a somehow small chance to pop out, but this will raise as you shrine more artifacts, since PABs amount will raise and their chance will be replaced by EDs. what i'm not sure many people did note, is that price of artifacts in WTB is made as an average weight of all the possible rewards, so in the end you should have *pretty much* the same incoming regardless of your choice. it simply brings back to whether you like to gamble or not, and whether you like additional rewards like Hath, PABs or crystals. if you throw these ones into the balance as well, then the difference between two cases should definitely be negligible. tl;dr: your call. not that big of a difference imo. QUOTE(Chraunzen @ Nov 24 2016, 14:36)  This post is mainly for Scremaz (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) lol. let's say there are things that other experts don't/cannot possibly know, before they feel cut out of the topic. obviously, if someone knows a better way to maximize his incoming, he's willing to listen. at least i guess (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

that's the standard answer for trophies. and if you allow me, i've tried to gamble enough to reach that answer. i never tried with Xmas ones though. but at that point it's even bigger of a chance to flush 350k into the toilet. as for artifacts, on the long term it should break even regardless of the choice, so it's more like playing poker: what do you prefer between being at the flop with a couple and trying to go at the river with a tris? or collecting datas vs. preferring a granted incoming. his call - this is a game, afterall.

I shrine my artifacts every time i reach 50 units. I get a medium of 9 Eds out of 50 artifacts.
In a very medium approximation (this really varies a lot) i get 8 artifacts out of a GF.
Takes 2 EDs to cover the stamina of 1000 rounds (for under 80 stamina).
Put the above together and mathematics tells us that it's less effective (for my rolls) to shrine my artifacts instead of selling them.
I'm still shrining them and will keep on doing so. For each their own.

QUOTE(Sapo84 @ Nov 24 2016, 18:45)  Arcane Focus doesn't change the amount healed (neither does Focus). Are you sure you didn't cast cure while channelling? What we know is:
In my case: with 0.1 prof factor => 8914 * (0.9X1 + 0.1X1.5) => 9359.7 (I got 9360) with 0.58 prof factor => 8914 * (0.42X1+0.58X1.5) => 11.499 (I got 11500) So perfectly in line with the expectations.
Unless you have a very high base HP (but at that point I cannot explain the difference between us) it's strange that you cure so much with a single cast.
Try again,got 9805.I must be wear wrong set while testing.My bad.Thank you.

I can make about 3-7m per month, more if I get a lucky drop. I still have a couple dozen left. This post is mainly for Scremaz (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) There's a lot of things to take into consideration, but every thing except PAB averages out mostly, so they're the swing vote. Basically are you willing to spend 20k on a +1 PAB? Given your income the answer is probably yes. QUOTE(Scremaz @ Nov 24 2016, 08:21)  what i'm not sure many people did note, is that price of artifacts in WTB is made as an average weight of all the possible rewards, so in the end you should have *pretty much* the same incoming regardless of your choice. it simply brings back to whether you like to gamble or not, and whether you like additional rewards like Hath, PABs or crystals. if you throw these ones into the balance as well, then the difference between two cases should definitely be negligible.
The WTB price is the average minus a profit margin so, if you have PABs maxed and you get enough artifacts to cover variance (which considering the smallest probability is 20%, it isn't hard to do so [w/o PABs in the mix, w/ PABs the variance is a lot higher]), you should always shrine.

QUOTE(IshimaruShun @ Nov 25 2016, 02:11)  Me jelly (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) What stuff do you get that lets you reach 7m per month o.o Doing all the arenas goes a long way. I think investing in lower level gear is a poor choice though, the faster way would be to invest in exp gain which quickens your access to far better gear at cheaper prices which, imo, is the shortest route to being stronk. And to the question of weather to gamble or to sell, I think SG trophies are pretty pointless gamble if you are not intending on getting Follower of Snowflake perk or say hoarding noodles for day0 of next patch. Artifacts on the other hand means your giving up a good chuck of 10% portion of extra stats which you'll probably end up buying later. This goes with anything you buy/sell, especially with the price differences between WTS/WTB. Sell selectively.

Ok, in line with my expectations then. With a LHOH you would probably cure 1500HP more or something like that. Also consider the supportive perk if you want to increase the HP cured, for 1000 haths you get 5% increase in cure (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)

yes. of course. but that certain profit will be visible only on high amounts, i guess. too lazy to do math, but it can be easily proven.

I really don't think my income is a lot, which is why I said solid, for my level... I'm missing DwD from my (kinda) daily 4-5 arena runs so thats a big minus for my monthly creds (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) And I barely get 2 tokens of blood per day to take FSM into account so I guess thats what I was missing too. So far I can prolly get at most 2m a month with 2 SG arenas + the 90 round arena + T&T (and if I have time the 75 round arena). SGs on hard and non SGs on Nintendo.

if i were you i'd try to do SGs, T&T and Eve of Death on Hard to farm trophies and tokens. then, the day after some arenas on PF (maybe T&T and less?) to farm a bit of EXP. then, returning to SGs the day after. PF FSM as soon as possible for trophies/token/drops. hybrid credits/EXP farming. something like that. you can also do whatever you want depending on the day, the only important thing is that you don't do 1k rounds at low difficulty at once. what do you think about being our guinea pig?
