Shield IS physical absorb. I don't know what you're asking though


Basically, with an absorb set, I end up with around base 20 absorb, but shield gives me an extra 20 or so. With earth-walker, my shield spell alone absorbs 45 damage and my clothes end up giving me an extra 7 or so.

The point is you can grind for a long time with either set in crude//cake, because enemies end up doing 0 damage per hit.

guess i better start building an earthwalker set

You should be glad MM even gives staff prof. Used to be the only way was doing melee with a staff. And MM used to cost MP.

it was the reason because i didn't even started to play last year... only starded from dec

haha, tribal, I just noticed we joined this site 3 days apart.

I think I only figured out how to play the game around November-ish, because I only spent my time around the galleries, and didn't know how to access the game.

Too bad, I suck, you're way ahead of my now LOL

probably i just have more free time

Are holy spells worth getting? The only thing they seem to do is work well against legendaries, but dark does that as well and works off forbidden along with soul.

Are holy spells worth getting?

Unless you fight legendary, not really.

The advantage is you get holy significantly earlier than dark or soul, so you could actually have holy spells to use by the time you can fight legendaries in the RoB.

so does the new update make all the previous advice obsolete ? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Not really.. I'm not really depending on one shots atm, and the new monsters die just fine to me...

too many people gave too many different advice.

some should still be valid while other might be obsolete.

well only real change is that maging is a bit nerfed by the not proc of CM when the targeted monster dies

this is balanced by the lower of hp of monsters at the same difficulty of before

And that new phase items can be worse for mages

You mean Channeling, not CM.
And I still believe that it's a bug that needs to be fixed asap.

nono Coalesced mana doesn't proc for me if the targeted monster dies
channelling and enter theft instead work fine

well this is messy

Have to agree with tearlow, even if the targetted monster dies i sometimes get CM. CM seems to trigger less often though

yet tried and confirm i was wrong, sorry
but now seems that Cm on other monsters is capped to only one for every spell

ok this is enough for magign without problems
but what's the problem with channelling?

i don't think it will triger if the target dies.
