[X] My Assistant

I'll just wait for the patch of this patch.

Victory at last. God damn that was long.

I can't imagine how long that would have took if poison was absorbed too.

@Lord_Obagon: I would like to know if the proc's there after you kill the tree?

another thing, i think somebody has already mentionted it, but the equipment set bonuses for heavy seem to be gone.

Fixed primary stat bonuses from the equipment sets not being applied (soon enough.)

Did Tenboro address why we somehow lost HP/MP/SP since the patch? I recall a few people mentioning it, but I don't recall if Tenboro actually addressed it.

Well no, the numbers I've seen add up to little more than a rounding error.

yay it works again. now i got +22 on END like yesterday, which means i'm still crazy and can't do math.

Thanks for the help on the wiki everyone! Still got more to go but I should be done in a bit.

Anyways, as for my assessment of this patch so far:
Cure seems stupid powerful for me now but Regen is about the same as before. My magic damage is a bit better than previously and I seem to be taking a bit less damage overall.

So yea, me likey (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Can you roll a dice or something for me? I'll be fine with any one of them.

Me too. Please roll a dice for me. Anyone is fine (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Still mention about Niten Set bonus? Is it 2 hand, dual, or both?

So, basically all I can do now is arena; no more item worlds for me, I don't have the stamina.

Uhm, IW doesn't drain more stamina.

I'll just wait for the patch of this patch.

Never play on patch day. Unless you want to help fix stuff.

They have some proc called Absorbing Ward that is supposed to work like Absorb and last 15 turns. However it seems to last forever and absorbed every damaging spell which in turn gives them mp. It doesn't seem to absorb deprecating spells though so I am killing them with poison+wack with stick.

Huh. When/how does this proc get put on them?

Well no, the numbers I've seen add up to little more than a rounding error.

I think it was this, since I've got my stuff back:

Fixed primary stat bonuses from the equipment sets not being applied (soon enough.)

@Lord_Obagon: I would like to know if the proc's there after you kill the tree?

I was able to kill the tree with magic. But the proc was there before and after the tree died and the goddesses absorbed every dmg spell. The proc also worked even when the img for the proc was gone. I even waited for the 15 turn limit on it to expire and it still worked for them after that. The img and proc would also reappear If i hit them with a melee attack.

Huh. When/how does this proc get put on them?

They start with it. The tree doesn't have it so he can still die with magic.

94 15 Urd gains the effect Absorbing Ward.
94 14 Skuld gains the effect Absorbing Ward.
94 13 Verdandi gains the effect Absorbing Ward.
94 12 A shimmering light is pulsating from Yggdrasil...

Oh come on, Yggdrasil's already dead! How can it still give them aborbing ward!?

I'm trying to let all the spells wear off to see if anything changes...

103 3 Magic Missile hits Verdandi for 1188 piercing damage.
103 2 You cast Magic Missile.

So at least it's possible to hit with magic missile...

Edit: Oh fuck it, use a magic missile to hit them and the absorbing ward's off!!! WTF!!!
Is that an IQ test!?

Already tried that, doesn't work; Or do you mean the proc with 700+turns? I would add that they absorbed everything even before they got that proc.

So at least it's possible to hit with magic missile...

Wow, they still absorbed it every time I cast it. Maybe the chance for them to absorb dmg spells isn't 100%, just 99.9999999%

I'm not sure if its only the 3 new monsters from the last arena, but they were resisting like 30-50% of my spells.

It kinda sucks how not only are spells missing their mark now, but monsters can also resist your spells.
So... what's the new accuracy/evade/resist formula now?

Oh boy, more strategy breaking nerfs and no new Monster Lab content. You can see where the priorities are.

It feels like we're getting punished with nerfs for actually accomplishing something in this game.

Bingo.

On a side note, I'm so glad I took a short break and didn't finish EoT on IWBTH. It wouldn't have been a pleasant sight to have finished it and then see this after the patch:

With pages of complaints and bugs being reported, this looks like it was rushed out before either of us could actually complete them, to prevent us from completing them. Especially with all the ridiculous nerfs to everything.

No, I'm serious, I use magic missile on each of them, and their ward went off, I swear.

Either Tenboro's editing things while I'm playing Trio, or it's intended.

Did it go away for good? or you could just hit them with only magic missile?


On an unrelated note I battled Unicorn with the Gum+Vase+Channeling and it did piss all 486 "dark" dmg per turn out of about 1mill hp. But Pestilince hit him for about 80,000 with Gum+Vase and shitty gear, so I suppose it's not that bad.

I cast magic missile on them each by each, then their ward's off.
And then I use Ragnarok and the ward's not coming back.

Now only Tenboro can probably answer what's happening, or I will have to try that again tomorrow

Bug: Every monster I scam (including elementals) does crushing damage.

Even if that worked, it still seems to be a bug with it not going away after absorbing or the duration ending.

Also, does the ward go back if you melee them? It seemed to bring the img back whenever I hit them.
