Equipment Leveling Latent Potential

- The daily dawn EXP was reduced to 5%, and now depends on the forum bonus.

(IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) I've been playing HV for quite some time now, but what forum bonus?!

The newer leveling systems (forge and equipment) don't actually store your level, they just use some fancy basic math to calculate an effective level from the total EXP.

Thought so, I didn't know the new scaling so I wasn't sure, but plugging in the new value of 25 matches with the level reduction.

Not really possible, even if I wanted to.

Figured as much. Knew I should have waited for the patch and not used those couple hundred high-grade metals in the past few days. Oh wells, just my luck.

And when did you ever see me make something like that retroactive?

Pretty much never. That's why I was certain you'd say no. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

General plans, yes. Specific plans, no.

Great, might make maging more viable again.

Are the latent potencies random bonuses? I sure as hell hope they're not, unless there's going to be a way to reset a bonus you don't want.

all of a sudden...all of my underlevel equipment turn out to be decent set of Heimdall and Fenrir...

Why are you expecting anything but benefits at the whim of random chance from this game

Yeah, I am wondering about this too. I just leveled my phase hat to Potency Level 1 and it acquired a Coldproof potency, which just adds +5.63 Cold mitigation. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif) That's not particularly exciting, and now that hat has one less potency level to get something useful.

Oh well. No reason to even daily bonus anymore now. I don't post here, so I guess I'm done with HV. All I did was collect daily and monster items, since the game has sucked for quite some time already.

Shut up.

Selling is supposed to be a viable choice. There were several trade-offs between monsters still mattering, the equipment shop not being raided, and the higher-grade mats not being flooded to hell and back.

I'm well aware of the consequences were you to of made it more easier to salvage materials. And I'm sure you'll probably tool around with a bit more in upcoming patches. It's clever, but not quite worth it right now.

Darn, salvaging doesn't level up the forge? Too bad. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

What do levels in Forge do again?

Looks interesting.

On a personal note, I hope the wiki calculations for both types of accuracy are updated soon, as I can only roughly approximate them now, and accuracy influences my stat and equipment choices. Similarly, I'd like to know specifically how monster evade is affected by accuracy above 100% (Would 200% accuracy be the point at which monsters get 0% evade regardless of their base evade (a proportional value at a 100% rate (Is this the rate?)), or is it subtracted linearly, such as by 150% accuracy subtracting 12.5% (a 25% rate) from monster evades, so monsters with 12.5-% base evade go to 0% evade (Negative evade is impossible, right?), but a monster with 50% base evade would go to 37.5% evade?), and likely also what monster evade is typically like, so I can judge accuracy's value better.

Yeah, I am wondering about this too. I just leveled my phase hat to Potency Level 1 and it acquired a Coldproof potency, which just adds +5.63 Cold mitigation.

Yeah. I wouldn't mind if the order you unlock them was random. But it the potency bonus is random it'll ruin your one-of-a-kind items.
Btw I just leveled a phase robe to level 1 and got windproof. Which sucks.

tenboro can you make t2/t3 armor fragments recoverable even if only it's a 1 in 1000 chance, thanks

Yeah. I wouldn't mind if the order you unlock them was random. But it the potency bonus is random it'll ruin your one-of-a-kind items.

They are random bonus stats. For armor, mostly elemental defenses as well as a couple of new stats. Ignore them if you don't like them.

How about making the itemworld training reduce example 2% of rounds per level? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

- Similar to the spell, Scroll of Shielding and Scroll of Warding have been combined into Scroll of Protection. Note that old Warding scrolls also proc Protection, but they no longer drop and will eventually be removed.

HURRAY I can now use them with happiness. On that note, is there a time frame or maybe a potential date for their removal? I still have 153 unused as of yet. NVM this.

edit: Wow... it took way faster to use than expected. One full run of Arena from like lvl 6 and down and poof.

Thank you based tenboro.

Please introduce a way to reset the potency to level 0 and start anew if you aren't happy with the results. Cuz as it is, I think it's worthless. Especially if it's possible to get one elementel defense repeatedly (as I fear it is).

Thank you based tenboro.

Based Tenboro is way better than Acidic Tenboro.
