Original General Dungeon Fighter Thread

y0y0y0y0shi0, are you speccing for PvP or PvE? The builds are similar, but slightly different. And the build you have right there is a VERY PvP based build that somewhat (personally) requires someone to know what the hell he or she is doing in a match. :|

@LHCGreg, is there any way to minimize the DFO Control Panel into the System Tray? ._.

More-so PvE.

If you want a more PvE based one, then this is what you should probably aim for. If you want to spec in a certain weapon, then get the mastery for that. Wave Manifestation Brand, at level 5 starts draining 1 mp/sec. At level 10, it starts draining 2 mp/sec, so some people leave it at 9 until they can afford to get some MP recovery gear that helps them keep their MP up.

Ashe Forke MAY be hard to pull off if you don't have jump gear since you'll be wearing plate armor for the mastery bonus. In my own opinion, ACS isn't necessary for PvE as an Asura. Backstep + Cancel is a preference kind of thing as well. You have a bunch of points to play around with, and some people max Neutral Wave Sword for some more damage as an end of the three default combo slashes -> NWS Cancel kind of thing.

Alright, so then I have this as an end result.
I maxed NWS, SS Mastery, Upward Slash, and put some in Magic Crit.
Although, I'm not sure if I should take some out of Upward and Magic and put them into Ghost Orb or Wave Radiation.

Take out of Magic Crit and put into either MW or GO. Upward is fine. Keep in mind I'm not actually looking at your build atm, just what you said. Ice Wave should also be maxed if it isn't.

Oh by the way, if anyone knows/finds a cheap Earthquaker recipe (leve 45 Axe. 2% chance to stun) under 1 million, I'll pay you in addition to the original selling price 150k just for getting it for me.

I have an Earthquaker recipe. I'm not sure of the price, but we can sort something out. I'm mostly on lThornl (lower case L's).

Yeah. He only had 4 levels in Magic Crit, not enough to be very effective. He doesn't have quite enough points to get more into Ghost Orb, left with only 81 after Magic Crit is removed. At higher levels, Ghost Orb is only really used for the hit-locking on bosses, from what I've heard.

Yes, but it also gets larger with more points, which is somewhat noteworthy.

@LHCGreg, is there any way to minimize the DFO Control Panel into the System Tray? ._.

Not now, but it' on the TO DO list, possibly for the next release along with the spiffier GUI by Corpsecrank (preview it and give feedback here).

Congrats! I remember my first "higher than 10" upgrade. Felt good.

Don't need Earthquaker anymore, found one for cheap:

 Spoiler

Crafting time! The materials requirement is crazy. No wonder the weapon costs ~3-5m.

 Spoiler

+5 already. I saved myself ~450k.

 Spoiler

I decided to straight upgrade, and stocked up on Ryan Cokes from alts in case it failed. I kept anticipating failure at the +7-+9 region. Results?

 Spoiler

Not one failure. Straight upgraded from +5 to +10. Gonna play it safe and use it as it is. Current axe is ~480 attack strength (+8, 398 + 81). This 45 Axe is ~640 (+10, 499 + 140), or a ~33% increase. I wonder how that will play out when I factor in strength. Regardless, it'll be fun times. Should be able to faceroll Spider's Lair once I level.


BONUS UNRELATED PIC
And oh, TOTAL hacker this guy is

:f6:
Over 11 million Ryan Cokes.......... I didn't even know you can jam that many into a character. Oh wait.

You rat bastard. I don't even want to get in to how much money I spent getting mine to +10 alone.

Finally completed my Apostle set after weeks of browsing the market before and after 50 patch. I had two pieces beforehand, and I've since found the final three pieces. The top and bottom didn't come out until this patch (they're 45). The TOP is what kept giving me trouble. Only a couple in the market that I've been following. Finally this morning one of the owners lowered their price from the usual stupid 2m+, and I grabbed it. The Shoulder and Belt I luckily found as cheap recipes. I later found the Shoulder recipe myself, so it turned out being free/profitable. The Shoe was the first ever piece I found for a surprisingly cheap like 200k or something.

God it feels good to have it complete now.



Total set stats:

312 HP

1894 Phy. Defense

62 Intelligence
67 Spirit

5 Electrocution Tolerance
6 Bleeding Tolerance
5 Burn Tolerance
5 Slow Down Tolerance

5.5% Movement Speed
+3kg Inventory Weight

16% Magic Critical (<3)

I think it's pretty awesome, and it looks sweet. My mastery and current upgrades on them gives me an extra 66.75 Intelligence and +5 + 6% Bonus Phy. Damage Reduction. I wish I could upgrade them even more, but the dreaded +8-10 gap always destroys my money. I've failed going to 8, 9 or 10 so many times. It's painful. Hell, I've even failed going to +5 and +6 around 15 times, and I haven't done all that much upgrading. Kiri hates me. Oh well, I have it and I'm happy.

God. Do Comet Silk Belts and Shoulders even exist? Those are the only two pieces I need to finish the set. If anyone finds or knows someone who's selling, I'll buy them.

I came across 3-5 different Comet Silk Belts recently. They ranged from 7m (clean) to double or higher for upgraded ones. I dunno what happened to them, though. I don't remember seeing any the past couple days. I don't think I've ever seen a Comet Silk Shoulder. And Comet Silk stuff always caught my attention because they look just like my Apostle set.

Wow, 7m for a clean one? That's nearly all my money. I saw a shop with the entire set about a week or two ago, but it didn't catch my eye since I was still 2x at the time and I didn't know I'd be 3x almost 40 this soon. I used the search function on DFOSource too and came up dry. Guess I'll try looking for one. I think Chamber of Blood can drop both recipes.

It's a belt with cspd, the ONLY belt with cspd. Ofc it's expensive. It's a lv 35 equip, so you need to farm somewhere with lv 30 drops for the recipe.

I knew it was expensive, but I didn't think it was THAT expensive. Maybe 4-5m or something. Guess I'll look at the drop table again.

What exactly qualifies as a source for an element? I managed to get my Mage up to 18 and make her a Summoner, and I'm wonding if there's things in dungeons that allows you to summon multiples of the other spirits, because I know Wisps can be summoned from Florae.
