The #1 mob I hate being given 50% MP on spawn is Mind Raper. Holy crap his special hurts.

agreed. Wholeheartedly.

he is uncommon for a reason =p
although he kinda pales in comparison to most 400+ PL monsters

By which point we'll have more spells than can fit on our bars.

Right now my only option is predicting with Barrier, slaughtering it before it gets it off, or taking it straight up the ass and hope it doesn't crit so I can heal.

bewilder?

e: if he's really bumraping you guys that badly and your speed doesn't suck, you should be able to bewilder him at start and bash immeiately after

Or 1-shot him with awesome fire spells.

He doesn't do it badly because he's the first I drop every time he's spotted. I can heal through his special if it doesn't crit, it's just really annoying because I'm geared to halt physical attacks, not magic.

So he's more of the biggest annoyance than the biggest threat. Unless you count his threat to my mana bar.

I have a general idea of what every magic mob is by name around my level. Whenever I see them, I look at their mana bar, and if it's above 1/3, then I cast bewilder and take them down first. If it's below, they're still top priority, but I'm confident I can stun them before they can cast anything.

I usually try a swat with my mace first, my accuracy with melee attacks is by far higher then my spell sticking ability. If i can't stun him, i keep my hp above 3/4ths. It hurts... a lot... but i can take it. I just sorely detest having to cast cure 2-3 times to make up for having to take it.

I still cant figure out where im losing 15-20% xp, even tho i try to compensate with more exp tanks/adept learner points

Full-scale check on all the scaling factors. Please help.

Might be stating the obvious but....are you doing the 10 posts a day for the 100% exp bonus?

Full Shade now with my mace. Light Armor prof at .11

This is going to take some getting used to. I do like putting up Shadow Veil and seeing a string of misses and evades. The ones that do get through though tend to hurt.

Mostly. People usually post in the Spamhaus to speed up the process while keeping the 'spam' away from the main sections.

I'm also pretty sure the XP posting bonus can no longer exceed 50% unless Tenboro says otherwise. (If the formula itself wasn't changed, that's what you used to get from 10 posts.)

Guess not, thanks for the reply. So the new formula could be something like :

CODE

bonus = log(post_count) * 100

Max posting bonus is 100%.

So what did change?
I'm sure that something did, I lost something like 20-30% in my EXP gains.

I found one of my monsters for the first time in battle. They grow up so fast.

Something to do with a bonus being counted twice or the AP ones kicking in even after untraining them. At least that's the gist of what I heard.

1 Shade Fragment, 2 Kevlar Pieces, 2 Repurposed Actuators, 3 Shielding Runes and counting in the Bazaar.
No one is going to buy them at those prices (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)
