Pretty good! It didn't work with Reloader, but after a quick and easy code mod now it does. Should i post it in the Script Thread?

Posted it. By the way, sorry to the first 2 persons that had downloaded it, i had forgot a line, and that made it not work without Reloader (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) Whoever it was, please go re-download it, i updated it (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) This post has been edited by gianfrix94: Dec 14 2016, 01:47

A question only for veterans and/or newbie mages. Do you think I should go mage? With basic gear, nothing fancy. I can't really play much anymore because of some things and I'm looking for a way to clear a ~5 arenas (non SG) in the fastest way possible... I'm currently using a Mag Rapier + Leg Shield + Full Mag Power Set. I noticed that mage spells can hit several monsters, just like Domino Strike can. Would I be able to one-shot most monsters (Normal mode & non SG) with basic mage gear? Maybe an exq/mag elemental mage. My main objective is basically slap and kill every monster as quick as possible in the lowest difficulty, mainly for artifact drops. (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) Does anyone have newbie mage gear (level assigned, usable) to loan for a while? Just to test this out, I won't steal it or anything.

It's an option, but at level 339 you'll still likely have problems with incoming damage on low difficulty. Yeah, mage is by far the most effective style for quick clearing on low difficulty. Without Imperil, you'll want Holy or Dark; it's more expensive, but given no-Imperil style, it's much more effective than elemental.

What should I get next: Tokenizer I, Crystarium IV or Dæmon Duality? Upgrading monsters to get kills is fun but not sure if it's worth 1000 hath.
And another question about bounties. Is there any way to display min hunter rank on index without going to individual bounty links? Is there any existing script? If not is it okay to fetch html contents of 25 bounty links using xhr on every browser refresh? What's the best way to do it?

Income Summary will give you an exact answer for comparing Crystarium to DD. QUOTE(Unindex @ Dec 14 2016, 04:02)  And another question about bounties.

What's the best way to do it? 25 in a second or two won't get you blocked unless you repeat it more than a few times. But rank requirement means little as long as you can prove that you're not an idiot, have some idea of what you're doing, and are willing to accomplish the objective.

Hmm, that's a hard, hard one. Last question: am I appearing as an idiot to you?

No no, I wasn't trying to insult you at all or anything, I meant that someone who wants to try and do a bounty without having the appropriate rank can't, for instance, be one of those with 0-posts who joined yesterday and immediately (tried to) accept a few of the high-paying bounties without even saying anything to the bounty poster first. And there are quite a few who are like that, unfortunately. So for a good chance of bypassing the rank requirement you basically have to show the bounty poster that you aren't in that category - which is very easy.

Well, it was an earnest question to see if I needed to change my image for the job. Thanks for your detailed explanation though.

if you do a lot of grindfest all three of them are extremely good. i have all 3 and i would get them in this order: 1) Crystarium IV 2) Daemon Duality 3) Tokenizer I if you dont do a lot of grindfest then in this order: 1)Daemon Duality . . . . . 2)Crystarium IV 3)Tokenizer I overall DD is the best pick for everything cause of clear speed, but if you plan on getting the second perk of the 3 soon i would go for crystarium first to increase your income until then and then get DD. this is just my opinion so take it with a grain of salt.

Just to test this out, I won't steal it or anything. well, as a fellow owner of a (basic) Holy mage set and a (crappy) Fire set, i can tell you that you can actually walk through arenas at low difficulties, but high prof and chunking potions like an addicted are required. most likely even another persona. on the other hand, as issary suggested you can freely recycle what you already own to build a 2H set with relative ease. and most of all, i'm not so sure it will be that slower if compared to mage. with IA3 you should stop only to cast Regen (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) QUOTE(issary @ Dec 14 2016, 12:02)  Two-handed(longsword) on normal/hard can also be an option.
at low difficulties yet high levels personally i'd go for a Mace. safer and probably even quicker on the long run due to Stun process. you can do all SGs with it without caring/curing too much. Power armors should be fine, btw. and given their high BUR you may even use a prefixed weapon, which should be relatively easy to acquire. but nobody forces you to pick them. with decent Shade armors at your level you should be able to trade a bit of ADB to reach 50% Evade and something like +10 Crit chance, for example. feel free to choose based on what you already own (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) This post has been edited by Scremaz: Dec 14 2016, 13:21

Focus on SGs. If there's enemies outside domino strike's range, just kill them after clearing enemies near the SG. Bleed damages SGs while you proceed to kill those outside DS's range. Been using that with power armor. Only problem is when enemies get to around 7 or something on the first arena and the ones far from the SG survive long enough to use skills. Haste + health draught fixes that though (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Haven't tried it on hard DwD though so no idea how it'll hold against 9 monsters This post has been edited by IshimaruShun: Dec 14 2016, 13:52

DD then. Artifacts hold the majority of my profit, and it sounds badass (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Are there any type of requests/bounties that don't require translating from japanese to english or the other way around? I'm only fluent in spanish and english (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) those who know jap/eng must be filthy rich with all those bounties... They look very easy, the translation ones at least. atomicpuppy sure is rich, most of his bounties have 10-50m as rewards, jesus christ...
