QUOTE(Insania @ Jan 16 2017, 19:07)  I did it yesterday with similiar equipment, 1H Shade, still your shield has pretty bad block. What you should do is abuse draughts while shooting Imperil on SGs, stay in Spirit Mode and hit them hard. It's going to be easy but time consuming.

QUOTE(Insania @ Jan 16 2017, 19:07)  Get a Slaughter Rapier, damage will be key to take down all those HP-heavy schoolgirls. Also forge your shield's block (at least to 5, preferably quite a bit more). Make sure your battle item slots are filled (HP/MP/SP Draughts, Potions & Elixirs) and be prepared to spend A LOT of time on the ordeal (my first PF DwD run took me ~2h with 1H Heavy set).

Now that I checked the wiki on IW, both IWBTH and PF give the same pxp modifier o.o Is the wiki not updated or is there another reason to do IW in PF vs IWBTH?

it's true. PXP are exactly the same. reasons to do it at PF are the usual ones - higher EXP, chance for better drops, chance for higher credit drops, blah blah. but mitigated by lower multiplier if compared ot arenas and with monsters hitting quite hard, so i'd suggest you to optimize time/PXP ratio and do it at IWTBH, especially for longer quests. but your call.

I still use two pieces at level ~220 (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) I considered replacing them, but i'd have to find the replacements first (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

PXP are the same, but EXP are not. Other reasons might be better drops, lazyness, bragging rights as well as clear speed (PF can be faster than IWBTH in some cases).

IWBTH for sure (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Especially with my .5-.77 t/s (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)

check here and all the other related tables: https://ehwiki.org/wiki/Equipment_Ranges_Li...ade_Breastplatebut in your case we're looking at a pre-0.81 piece (EID is ~56M), so all its (unforged) stats will be lower than the correspective on wiki. how many soul fragments do you have?

I have enough to soulfuse it (701). But I am still considering if it's worth it.

QUOTE(Scremaz @ Jan 16 2017, 19:33)  i'll never understand why to prefer that script over the tables (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif) Much faster to check, especially if you check a lot of different stuff. I even use Percentile Ranges too. This post has been edited by gianfrix94: Jan 16 2017, 20:35

this is an example of (nowadays) Mag tier, if you want to compare http://hentaiverse.org/pages/showequip.php...;key=61ef859e73This post has been edited by Scremaz: Jan 16 2017, 20:35

QUOTE(Scremaz @ Jan 16 2017, 19:33)  +25% speed at PF means more counters for 1H players. So long as increasing monster strength from IW doesn't really threaten you, PF might turn out to be faster. It is of course highly individual and by no means the norm, but it is known to happen.

QUOTE(needaname @ Jan 16 2017, 20:00)  Always Penetrator at your level Mantra!
Then maybe Spellweaver or Archmage or Annihilator for survival or damage.
Eco needed only if you are poor low level mage.
So reforge when I get Penetrator and Eco? http://hentaiverse.org/pages/showequip.php...;key=51506552be
