QUOTE(trikon000 @ Jan 12 2017, 08:51)  Does a soulbound shield's stats go up or does that only apply to attack damage on gear only? I'm getting around to IW one of the shields I have since my level is approaching the same as the shield. Scaled stats rise (or fall) to match your level, but base stats stay the same. https://ehwiki.org/wiki/Level_Scaling

Wasn't sure if that was the case with shields or not. Though only being able to only get elemental procs kinda sucks, would have like to get non-elemental Damage Mitigations procs through IW.

QUOTE(RoadShoe @ Jan 12 2017, 03:16)  Does the crit from the savage over-ride the difference in equipment range on this peerless?
Assume Forging will be completely maxed.
not sure. to have a clue you should actually do the empyrical way - that is, test them on the field (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) but considering you're going to boost only one of the two crit stats and (especially) to fully forge, it's like saying to assume the gap between crits will remain the same while the gap in ADBs will grow and grow. how much? minimum threshold, the difference on ADBs @ lv0 multiplied by 1.66. then there's contribution from STR and DEX. little, but another spread factor. i doubt all this can make up for the Savage prefix. the fact it's the bra will also exasperate the results. tl;dr: i'd go with the Peerless. QUOTE(mistakegamer @ Jan 12 2017, 03:52)  I want ask that if I should use imperil and silence as a 1h heavy armor ?
you can, if you want. but only possible situation(s) i could think about are against very tanky mobs (that is, on 3+ tokens-worth ROBs) or hard-hitting ones (ie many Celestials will appear at once). feel free to slot them in both abilities and quickbar, but know that you may not use them for a long time. QUOTE(Superlatanium @ Jan 12 2017, 05:50)  (sorry if I sounded aggressive, but I prefer encouraging people to be hesitant than for their actions to result in more vigi work)
couldn't be helped, i guess. QUOTE(Chraunzen @ Jan 12 2017, 05:54)  Didn't know that page existed... Dear lord stonycat...
true. since when did he fall from 1st to 4th place? i guess the other 3 were pumping their H@H capabilities sooooo much... (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) QUOTE(Chraunzen @ Jan 12 2017, 07:36)  It takes 2-5 hits to kill monsters with arcane focus and infusion of flames, I'm not sure if I should grind Dep. prof for Imperil, since it will take time to spam imperil each round, but maybe I'm wrong?
Hoverplay has the option to cast a certain spell (only once, but still...) at the start of every round. i simply use Imperil on the strongest mobs once (usually SGs, in particular Konata) and kill all the others with splash damage. QUOTE(Chraunzen @ Jan 12 2017, 07:36)  Is there something I can do to be able to one-hit kill monsters in Hard? Or normal, don't really care (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) I'm just in it for the trophies and artifacts. Is Radiant phase the only option to make me stronger? (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/faint.gif) mag radiants is expensive and kinda rare, if anyone has one, PM me please. 2 hits for an on-and-off player are already enough. and my suggestion is still Hard. the bonus (yet rare) Amnesias and the 25% reductions on 1k-round penalties in exchange for a pathetic increase in mob's HP tanks seem worth trade to me. QUOTE(Chraunzen @ Jan 12 2017, 08:14)  How much would a holy mag/leg phase set cost? And... What type of weapon would be the best option for high damage output?
if you don't have any particular request (ie unforged low-tier Legendaries without special prefixes or high-tier Magnificents), you can build a whole armor set for 500k or so. best possible staff would be a Legendary Oak of Heimdall, but if you go at low difficulties against SGs you can also take a much cheaper Katalox of Destruction. QUOTE(IshimaruShun @ Jan 12 2017, 08:17)  Didnt know the rename feature can be used more than once (every 365 days) (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Just making sure but the timer starts the moment you change your display name right? it should, yep. no reasons to think otherwise. QUOTE(trikon000 @ Jan 12 2017, 09:51)  Does a soulbound shield's stats go up or does that only apply to attack damage on gear only? I'm getting around to IW one of the shields I have since my level is approaching the same as the shield.
*every* stat on *every* soulbound piece will scale adapting to your level and scaling factors, like they normally did in the past. that's the whole purpose of annoying soulfuse thing. This post has been edited by Scremaz: Jan 12 2017, 12:06

Thanks Scremaz. Stony won the peerless. He was probably going for Chaos, and is over there sighing like I am. I won the Golden Lottery tickets. By the way, if anyone ever ask you what the cost of 2 golden lottery tickets is? Tell them 2 golden lottery tickets cost 19,900kGP and 1 golden lottery ticket. Sigh...

Sigh... (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) QUOTE The Armor Lottery lets you spend GP on a chance to win the specific equipment piece shown on the left. Each lottery period lasts 24 hours. At noon UTC, a drawing is held, and a new lottery period starts.
In addition to normal tickets, you can also spend a Golden Lottery Ticket to add 100 tickets and double your effective ticket count at the time of drawing. This will not increase the effective ticket count past 10% of the total purchased tickets. From what I understand using a Golden Ticket when you have >10% of total tickets will have no effect on the outcome. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Maybe he bought an amount of tickets and used the ticket first to get to 10 percent, then the GP to buy tickets?

as far as i understood, we're speaking about galleries used by users to upload something for their own use - they should be excluded by search, i guess. they can still be shared with other people, but will award you a considerable lower amount of GPs.

I almost have enough Soul Fragments to soulfuse my first equip. This is my only legendary equip, is it worth keeping? http://hentaiverse.org/pages/showequip.php...;key=480916cf67Also, how can I calculate the ADB of my equipment to see what's worth keeping and not keeping? I'm currently assuming that a higher potency tier = better equipment.

No. It's obsolete, and has S ADB (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

How I've always read it is this: An auction has a total of (arbitrary) 60,000kGP invested in it. A person adds 19,900kGP into the auction for nearly 1/3 of the tickets. Total invested in auction is now 79,900kGP The person uses a Golden ticket. He increases his count by 100 tickets, and now has 20,000kGP in the auction. The total shown for the auction stays at 79,900kGP. He then gets his double, but it's locked to 10% of total tickets shown, which is 7,990kGP. He now has 27,990kGP in the Auction, the auction total only shows the 19,900 originally invested. Or at least I think.....

Hi everyone. It has been a long time since last time I played hentaiverse. Now I'm at Level 122 with 3876 health, 385 magic and 237 spirit. Proficiency of Two-handed and heavy armor are about 100. All the attributes are around 125 besides int. I equipped some superior plates of protection. Anyone can give me some advice? Thanks.

Seeing as you're currently 2-handed and heavy, I assume you have high burden, meaning less action speed. This means enemies may take more turns than you for each action you take (eg hitting you twice while you hit them once). Your stat distribution is bad as well, seeing as you've increased agility, a stat that would have little to no impact on your current build, a heavy armor with low action speed and high burden which eliminates evade chance completely. I would recommend you switching styles from 2-handed to 1-handed heavy armor (preferably power armor because of attack damage bonus) or create a new persona and re-distribute your stats. A good starting point could be a light armor dualwielding rapier and waki for penetrated armor debuff and high parry on waki in addition to parry bonus on offhand. Might be slightly different from 2-handed (2-handed's domino strike means splash damage = less thinking), but dual wield + low burden + stats distribution (go look at wiki's Advice page and look at the melee portion), will allow you to deal damage quickly to single targets, killing them fast while maintaining a high action speed+evade+parry chance. The current meta is 1-handed heavy armor, since this gives the Overwhelming Strikes Proc, which increases damage and a whole bunch of other things, and accumulates Overcharge quickly. You'll eventually hit a roadbump if you continue with heavy 2-handed, as I've experienced myself, because you'll fight more and more monsters per turn, and use more and more restoratives until it becomes unsustainable. Not too sure if this is relevant, but by switching to 1-handed heavy or dual-wield light, you should be able to increase difficulty and get better drops. If you're not sure about difficulty buffs to drops, wiki again has all the answers. Wiki also has specifics on stat distributions, and while you don't have to follow them strictly, the stats recommended there do help if you're not too sure on how to add your stats. Hope this helps!

I think he'll have 20,000 tickets QUOTE(Tenboro @ Mar 30 2014, 20:17)  - A new item, the Golden Lottery Ticket, has been added. You can spend one (and only one) GLT on a lottery, which will immediately give you 1000 tickets. Additionally, at the time of drawing, it will double your effective tickets up to a maximum of 10% of the total tickets bought. -- If you already have more than 10% of the total tickets, it will have no effect. If you have >5% and <10%, it will effectively give you 10%. -- GLTs can only be won through the lottery, and cannot be traded.
QUOTE(Tenboro @ May 17 2015, 17:14)  Halved the requirement for each golden ticket, but reduced them to adding +100 tickets (they still double the effective chance up to 10%).

Should I shrine some Artifacts? I have been selling them for a long time but, should I worry for having so few primary stat bonus? To me they seem really expensive according to the chance of getting them, It's a bit balanced if I get some Energy Drink but I still feel like a waste when I get a lot of crystals

I shrine them, if you aren't too strapped for cash you should too.

Primary stat bonuses from artifacts can be considered to be worth the price of an artifact each, using certain economic calculations.
So if you think a random stat bonus is worth spending the cost of an artifact, go for it, otherwise don't.
Moderate forging is likely better, at least at first.
