QUOTE(issary @ Dec 29 2016, 16:40)  Spell Crit Damage.If you only count damage expectation it's even better than radiant(but not stable).
exactly. and Focus is the only viable suffix for Fiery/Arctic Oaks, so why not exploiting it by going with a crit-based buid? (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

QUOTE(issary @ Dec 29 2016, 22:34)  Wind/elec have willow,fire/ice only have redwood,if you use imperil it affact a lot,similar roll LFWD performs better than LFRD with high grade fire set(radiant with 25 forged iirc) so if I caculate right you can get a stronger wind/elec set than fire/ice with same credits now. (I'm preparing my holy set,too.)
well , elec have good proc for PFUDOR and wind have more damage for SG (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) This post has been edited by nobody_xxx: Dec 29 2016, 17:54

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Focus costs too many MDB for me,iw can privides lots of Mana Conservation,and many people even choose not to IW mc now.Magic Accuracy will always be more than 200% if your level is high enough.Magic Crit Chance is great but even with full set of mystic it can't cover the lost MDB/EDB.

Could someone give me a number of turns to finish a PFUDOR-fest for dark mage? I need some benchmark. Thank you.

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) 1) crits don't cover the loss of MDB/EDB as pointed out by issary 2) crits will do a lot of overdamage with imperil mage 3) Oak has no depr prof, so you will get 0.1 prof => 1.6% counter-resist on imperil (nothing), redwood gets something like 7%, considering innate counter-resist of Oak is still lower but not that much. Willow is super-good for imperil because it's depr prof is very high. At the end of the day you sacrifice 20MDB, 3EDB and 2prof for a bit of counter-resist, better crit chance and mana conservation. It's never worth it.

QUOTE(IshimaruShun @ Dec 29 2016, 15:42)  Now my next problem is the competition for ice mage stuff (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif) I though wind and elec mage were the popular elemental ones so I'd have no trouble getting stuff :crymore: Well... I might be somewhat to blame for this. But on the bright side: I'm quite happy with my robe, gloves, legs and shoes. But I don't have a great LARD yet. If a great LARD comes up, you'll need deep pockets.

There's a lot of competition (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) go Fire. even Radiants are cheap enough, if you're happy with mid-high levels (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) the real problem is finding a proper staff though...

I was going with Ice because i have a nice Arctic Waki for 1H Mage, but if i find a proper Staff of any type at a good price i'm going with that for full Mage.

Was wondering if I could invoke some of the more experienced mages and hath wielders for some answers I was wondering what would be the best IW potencies to aim for on this staff? Legendary Demonic Kataloxx Staff Of FenrirAlso was wondering what the best investments for hath perks ranging within 500-600 would be?

For non-Imperil low-difficulty players, Penetrator is only nice. Economizer is trash, credits gained/turn is next to nothing in comparison to other possible potencies. Cast speed is great for low-level mages on any difficulty. Penetrator is (still) nice regardless. Archmage is meh, since staff is not Destruction and won't be forged (much). Annihilator might not be terrible.

I have a celestial and an elemental monster, which stats should I focus on increasing?
Is there a specific way to get void damage skills for a celestial?

i'd say AGI, END, INT and WIS have priority. SP attack.

Whatever you have available. On the long run it won't matter. Their damage comes from INT since they have magic attacks, but you want to increase their power level anyway, so unless if you have a stable income of crystals/( or credits to buy them) it doesn't matter. At power level 400, monsters have access at their 3rd move and for celestials, that means that you can pick void type of damage instead of holy if you want to.
