I think it's better not. They do bring material from time to time but it wouldn't pay back anytime soon with the amount of cash you're gonna dump on them. The cost to upgrade their stats increase just like your own, but in crystal. You'd go broke.

QUOTE(abc12345678901 @ Mar 15 2017, 11:37)  For normal arenas thoguh jsut spaming T1 and T2 when it's off cooldown burns mana faster than my mana potions can recover (I can recover mana using just mana potions with T1 thoguh), is it worth spamming mana exliers in order to spam T3/T2 ?
re-asking this since it's several pages behind now.

QUOTE(diegodiego13 @ Mar 15 2017, 16:34)  QUOTE(qac. @ Mar 15 2017, 16:21)  Huh, sounds great. What's the build?
But proficiency grinding is a total nightmare... almost gave up light armor when I switched and I stopped trying to make 2H work because the sheer damage difference by now.
1h weapon (with elemental prefix (shocking-arctic-fiery-tempestous)), with (nimble or battlecaster suffix). shield (whatever prefix, with barrier or battlecaster suffix. i think battlecaster will do better at early level for more mana conservation. phase armor (with element of your choice, but i think elemental is better early on than holy or dark). the mana consumption pretty high for holy or dark. i dont know if the dmg any good to be honest because i first tried 1h-mage on pfudor RE at lv 260+. but if you could try it on your level, your feedback might be useful for others looking for a build which can hit multi-targets with decent survivability. in short, feel free to consider yourself as our guinea pig (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) QUOTE(spiker111 @ Mar 15 2017, 16:43)  Hello.

yep, almost every one of them are custom mobs. i'd say to bring out an army of pl25 weaklings. QUOTE(abc12345678901 @ Mar 15 2017, 17:14)  re-asking this since it's several pages behind now.
i remember latanium says that even elixirs are justifiable, yep.

if mana is a big concern consider using aether shard. also try to target coalesced targets with your spells for the -50% cost. iirc mana cost are also affected by the proficiency
and yes monster lab investment doesn't come back to you for a long long time. monster lab is heavy initial investment with very long long long term payoff

Would making a new persona allow stats reassignment? I wouldn't mind trying it in that case.

Okay, what about equips? Also, does the new persona start from 0 or the current level? How does it work when one of them lvlup?

just different stat distribution and abilities also your setting page like font, difficulty and all that. but its easy to just set it all back the way you want it honestly. other than that everything is the same. there is no harm in trying, although keep in mind. you only have 3 personas if you want more you have to train it on training page which cost 1m. i have 3 personas, 1h-mage for pfudor. staff-mage for hell. and melee for fun testing stuff (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Welp, thanks for all the replies about monster lab, I've opened 2 slots but realise I actually can't even increase any of the stats by 1 yet. Are there any other uses for the token save for renaming/powerup thingies? If so, should I be looking at trying to unlock as many slots as soon as I can afford to PL25 them or is there a smarter investment of the tokens? Oh, and if the monster I created is PL0, does it matter if I just let him starve?

Yeah, PL0 you can just starve. You need some crystals, bro! For active players, a lot of pL25 monsters is a good investment.

QUOTE(Sapo84 @ Mar 15 2017, 16:38)  Oh, right, forgot that you use elec. Calculating counter-resist is even more difficult since elec proc adds 10%. So you have 83.58% without proc and 93.58 with proc. Which explains why you see less resist with no imperil (rounds last longer so more monsters gets the proc). Tonight I will try to run some crude IW with 1.0 prof and 0 CR from staff (50% effective CR) to try to calculate the real monster average resist.
Tracked the depr resist rate too. [Resist] Depr 6.9%~7.7%, average at 7.4% CR from pswd+5pen = 33.58%, and depr prof+perk = 0.578 = 28.9% CR, then the total is 62.48% so the average resist in PFUDOR should be 7.4 / (1 - 0.6248) = 19.72%. The imperil casting turns is still about 3500 times with this CR. If replace shoes with a fully forged curse-weaver (about 131 prof), new prof factor is 0.84 = 42% CR, the total is 75.58% Then the resist rate will down to about 4.82% But it's a problem to estimate the new imperil cast turns.

Hey guys, Is there any way to grind Proficiency (for staff and spells) effectively? I took me a lot of time just to get 0.05 proficiency (IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif) . Btw, in the monster lab, should I prioritize quality (1 strong pet) or quantity (a few lv25 pets)?
