which is the reason because i previously told him not to bother with them yet. he just started, so why wasting APs in Better Paradise now? fill all the other abilities for now.

as for gears, well... as soon as you find something interesting? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

^ disclaimer: this guy plays with ether theft proc. i don't suggest to do so to a beginner. especially since at low difficulty mobs will die quite quickly.

No I don't, stop badmouthing me (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif)
I only use ether theft in SGs arenas and when I'm missing some depr prof.

QUOTE(Scremaz @ Jun 18 2017, 19:49) *
and personally i suggest also silence. not sure if magnet is useful

Silence is useless (mages want to end the round the fastest they can, debuffing is not a good idea normally), magnet can be useful in SG arenas since it prevents resist.

QUOTE(Scremaz @ Jun 18 2017, 19:49) *
not sure which spike to pick, maybe Elec?

Cold or fire.

QUOTE(Scremaz @ Jun 18 2017, 19:49) *
don't bother with soul fire, especially at the start

Pretty bad suggestion, soul fire is quite good, and since it only costs ability points (which literally cost nothing) it's a no brainer.

QUOTE(xcaliber9999 @ Jun 18 2017, 21:35) *

heck I don't even know whether the robe is a good purchase or not (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

The equip is good, the price... not so much.

Also don't use base reloader for spell casting, you should probably just go with vanilla reloader + Crackling Cast even if it's harder to setup.

Probably a not very optimized setup for holy mages should look more or less like:
CODE

    use_reloader : true, // set to true if you're using a Reloader
    hover_area : 1, // 0:none, 1:mob box, 2:mob icon, 3:mob name, 4:mob status; inspired by sssss2
    stopWhenChanneling : 1, // Stop when less than or equal to channeling buff expire turn (if < 0, disable)
    checkOnlyExpire : true, // set to true, if you want to check only expiring buff.
    expireTurn: false, // if set to true, expire turn prefer 0 to 1
    preferAvatarGod : false, // prefer avatar and god to others
    useScrollOfLife: false, // if set to true, prefer Scroll of Life to cast Spark of Life or IA when Cloak of the Fallen without Spark of Life
    innateArcana: ['Haste', 'Protection', 'Spirit Shield', 'Shadow Veil', 'Spark of Life'],
    spells       : { // Pay Attention to typos. Is case-sensitive
      hover   : ['Paradise Lost', 'Banishment', 'Smite'], // List of Hover spells
      num     : ['Imperil'], // List to cast when number key is pressed (if set to [], disable number key spells)
      right   : ['Orbital Friendship Cannon', 'Vital Strike', 'Shield Bash'] // List to cast when right click on monster pane (hover_area set to neither 0 nor 1)
    }
(rest as default)

I don't cast drain, I put it in rotation in SGs arena when I want to get depr prof fast.
And well, it's actually not so bad, ~20 seconds lost (on DwD) but a nice depr prof boost and 5-6 mana potions saved.
For a holy mage that probably hasn't depr prof maxed is a useful tool.
Much more than silence at least.
QUOTE(Scremaz @ Jun 19 2017, 00:46) *

Actually it probably depends, for very spark-heavy scenarios you want fire/cold to minimize the spirit loss.
In low difficulty scenarios elec may be more useful thanks to the counter-resist (probably not so much with imperil style since the rounds are so short).
It doesn't matter much anyway, and since switching is annoying I prefer keeping one of the safe one.

The odds of a change are low, but hoarding a few weeks before an upgrade works everywhere else.
Unsure of here. We may get nerf'd over it. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

I'm also hoarding trophies. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Bought them.
99% of my daily game income goes to crystal packs.

I never let them sit like that. I usually build a PL1100 monster as soon as I hit 270 packs.

But... gonna wait till after 0.85.... just in case. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Just a question, why didn't you change the reloader settings and restart the browser? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

it works even on FSM, if it's for that. if it lands you can see the usual pink icon in part of the target.

I don't understand. I changed reloader for the 3 tier 3 spells and drain.

You mean to restart the arena? Is that possible?

No, I mean switching back to your usual mage settings, close the browser, reopen the browser and continue the arena with your normal mage gameplay.

Or were you using a different persona to grind prof?
