More or less. Those are the base values. Then there's a scaling factor that converts them to "level 0" values, and another factor that scales them up with level, and for armour there seem to be further scaling factors for each slot, so chest pieces (for example) always have the highest values. I don't think we've figured out exactly how that last part works...

By observing some equipment numbers, i do feel like there's a uniform scaling factor for each slot.
The difficult part is that there seems to be some rounding to produce the basic value.
i really don't know how to explain it right now, it seems like some observation from multiple equipment values, but i cannot be sure, of course.

Is there any way we can record the equipment data by clicking on it?

It's the Da Vinchi code, I tell ya!

Does it mean that if i can solve HV's base stat code, i can get that chainsaw engine? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Oh hell yeah! But then monsters do 10000 HP damage and never, ever miss to balance it.

If you are asking for a massive boost to regen, you aren't going to get it.

Not asking for massive anything... I'm saying it's weird that it's not consistent. And regen is the most efficient healing spell out there (well except maybe spark of life! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ).

Well, you pretty much did.

Specifically, I'm interested in what the new max values are (straight up double the old values?).

More like closer to 50% higher but still conforming to multiples of 0.3 with a -0.01 offset. I have my own idea of what the new maxes are, but we'll have to wait for more drops to find out if they're correct.

Hey Tenb,

I'd like to address the issue of piling up non tradable items aka Tokens of healing and Chaos tokens.
I have almost 400 healing and 19 Chaos Tokens, since I have very little use for them the numbers keep growing and it's becoming a scarecrow in my inventory.
I'm sure I am not the only one feeling this way.
Since you don't want them sellable could you at least make them convertible tokens for tokens?
Of course with some reasonable rates like...
1 Chaos token = 2 Tokens of Blood = 50 Tokens of healing
or something like that.

Would be much appreciated.
It's not like it's a big deal but it would be a definate positive improvement to the game.

Thanks

I agree with this concept or it just goes to waste.

Just make Chaos Tokens act like super crystals for stat boosts in the monster lab.

Did You Know:
Chaos Tokens will be used for everything NOT Crystal-related in the Monster Lab once they're implemented?

Can we have a Blacksmith in the Bazaar to improve our gear? Many players, especially cmal, have a lot of trouble finding better gear than what they already have when they want to upgrade. When your gear is as great as cmal's it's near impossible to find something better.

Perhaps it can use more and more credits for higher level gear or even a new gear token? I don't know, it's just a thought of mine.

@Tenb:

I don't know if this has been happening with anyone else but I noticed it after 5.2: after starting an arena you have to click on screen once to get it into focus before you can use any keyboard shortcuts. Only affects the first round, subsequent rounds start off with the battle in focus (otherwise I'd have reported this a while ago for making the shortcuts pointless). Firefox 4.0.1.

As for the update: Until I'm actually forced to look at my equipment, either because I'm dying a lot or I find something superior or better that's not cotton, I'm going to pretend that nothing's happened.

Edit: Actually I have a question. Do custom monsters give more loot quality bonus the higher level they are? That would be pretty awesome.

Hmm. I can't help feeling there are still a lot of question marks, but never mind.

Wow been a long time since i saw you welcome back (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Doubt they give more loot quality bonus atm, but they give alot more experience though.

Tenboro I just wanted to thank you for updating the game so much lately, and even though I may not like all your changes I think you've done a great job. I can't wait to see new changes.

This is actually a Firefox 4 issue and it's because of the new alert boxes. You can change them back to the old style by typing about:config into the address bar, search for prompts.tab_modal.enabled and change it to false

What happened to all the soul stones?

Not the right place to ask, besides the answer is obvious, someone just bought them all most likely.

Suggested a million time.
Tokens are free, if you don't use them, that's your problem.

It works! Thank you.
