Would have preferred a different strike, but with speed strike 5 I'm happy.

It's not a bad Elemental to have, not as desirable as Holy, Dark, or Soul, but better than Wind. A good weapon, but it would have been nicer to get another Butcher level too.

Yes, I would have liked to have another Butcher, but Endurance is a good proficiency, too. Plus I can always forge it to get the extra damage.


If I couldn't have gotten Holy, Dark or Soul, I'm not unhappy with Electric. And, of course, it's all extra, bonus damage I wasn't inflicting before. Overall, I'm pleased.

Well as a matter of fact I have one too. I'm happy with it, and you're right about the extra damage is extra damage. Exquisite Ethereal Estoc Of Slaughter

And now endurance 1 (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) ... If I somehow got one more butcher and a good elemental strike I'd still be happy so I'm gonna go ahead and see what I get on the next two levels. But I won't be resetting it anytime soon because for now all my amnesia shards have to go to credits. Yes, I've entered into another payment plan on a very expensive piece of equipment, lol. Currently buying this rapier off of Mantra64 (thanks again!):

^This is my new item world project, btw. And to anybody interested, after this is maxed out with a good strike I'll probably selling/auctioning my exquisite ethereal with soul strike in the sig. (not a 100% sure but probably).

Heh, it's nice doing a weapon with 4 PABs. All I have to worry about is the elemental strike (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) .

Hmm, decision time, do I proceed or reset? I have 2 more levels to get 2 more Butchers, chances are not good. A tough call, but still nice and 3 SS, and 2 Butchers is not too shabby.

But But IW are just so much fun....

max it and see what you get, if the element strike is to your liking keep it, if not and you didn't get more butchers reset

Legendary Tempestuous Ebony Staff of Destruction

7 8 Unlocked innate potential: Agility Level 1

Shit start. Reset. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) Getting x5 Economizer on this thing is going to be fun; 200 rounds per go.

EDIT: Yeah, now having the 'Reforge' button so close to the 'Salvage' button makes me nervous.

What about this?

Keep gear equipped > Go to Forge page > Unlock > Reforge > Relock

Gear is then unlocked while equipped and can be reforged without the threat of it being destroyed by a misclick.

What about this?

Oh, I didn't know about that, but it's something I'll definitely do now. Thanks.

EDIT: Unlocked innate potential: Endurance Level 1

(IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) Got excited for a second because it started with "E".

ya, i dont like that.

I was doing IW the other day and I got +3 to the same potential 7 times. It seems the chances to get the same thing could be higher if you do them on higher settings.

if you can try doing the first IW on IWBTH and see if you can get +3, if you do but don't like what you get reset and try for another +3

But But IW are just so much fun....

max it and see what you get, if the element strike is to your liking keep it, if not and you didn't get more butchers reset

I'm leaning that way, I'll hit it again today for 'fun' and see what happens. ^^

Fine Ethereal Katana of Slaughter

1 in 7 chance, was hoping for Holy, but got Fire. 111 rounds per, not sure to reset or just wait for a better Ethereal Katana.

There are some nice Exquisites in the shops now, I would look first before resetting, but that's just me.
Credits for a better one vs. credits for Energy Drinks and Amnesia Shards to do a reset and and time to do an IW grind. It all depends on you.

the whole allure of fine eths is the low round count, i think it'd be better to just find another one and level it, than waste amnesia shards on it. Save those for something better.

I think I'm too squishy to do a 200 round legendary IW on IWBTH; 44% physical mitigation. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) Even on Nightmare it gets risky, so I have to bring extra spirit potions.

Usually I'll reset if I don't get the potency I want on the first level and I don't have +3 to it by the fourth level.

44% phy OUCH, is that as a mage or light armor? Even if you need to take in a few Elixirs just to do that first run on IWBTH It should be worth it if you can get +3 every time.

you could pay someone to do the first run for you on IWBTH. It just seems like if you can get +3 the first run you can do the rest on any other setting and still get +5 in the end. The items I was leveling that didn't get +3 were Fine so they only went up +2 or +1/+1 the first run and later runs would be anything. But the higher quality items all got +3

is that as a mage or light armor?

It has to be mage, I'm lower level than him and my full shade set-up gets 62.4% PMI.
