Spending my first 25 jelly gems

I've been playing for about a week now, I have an Ascended Caliber, Dusker Coat, Wolver Cap, 2* Defender. I'm waiting on finding the dusker cap recipe to upgrade my helm. Now I'm wondering what to spend my first 25 jelly gems on, either a sealed sword or an antigua? I only have the proto starter gun because I have been focusing on getting my other gear up. So would getting an antigua and upgrading it to say argent peacemaker and getting my caliber to leviathan be better first or trying to go for a divine avenger/leviathan combo first?

Gun recommendation

I'm mainly a sword person, but in most games where you can have two weapons I usually carry a close combat weapon (high dps) and a range weapon I can at least do some dmg while I'm getting in range of using my close combat (if they survive long enough for me to get close). I like it one shot with high dmg, don't need to deal out a high rate of fire. I was planning on going for either Iron Slugger or Callahan, but the Magnus is not quite what I expected when I planned out all my equipment.

I'm thinking maybe valiance is the way to go for me?

Shield Resistances, how do they work?

So lets say a shield has negative to your sleep resistance. Does that mean your sleep resistance is penalized at all times, or only when the shield is deployed and defending you? Also, does it matter? If you block a hit that would have caused you sleep it nullifies it correct? or can you gain status ailments through shield (I'm assuming not because lumbers never apply stun and I have taken 500+ hits from them while shielded)?

Alchemy Questions: Upgrading UVs

Submitted by robertrauth on Tue, 04/19/2011 - 02:33

  • New Recruits

I created my first item yesterday, a Calibur, and received a UV for 'Damage Bonus vs Fiends: Low'. I understand from reading the wiki article that I can transfer this bonus to future upgrades along Caliburs Alchemy path, but is it worth it? So, a few questions, some about mechanics and others about strategy.

//Mechanically

- Will this damage bonus scale on an upgrade or will it always be a Low bonus? Assume I upgrade this item and keep the UV, will it eventually become Medium or higher?

Solution for Tier 3

I understand to get to tier 3 is to have 4* equip and i know basil sells 4* recipes in tier 3 only so do people normally buy the basic 4* recipe from kozma then do some runs in tier 3 to upgrade their desired 4* and above?

Hey -

I started playing a few days ago and have managed to rack up a Wolver Coat and ~5000 crowns, but am a little lost to what gear I should get for the best gear. I'd like a build that can:

-Solo well, and is a
-Mix between ranged and melee

If anyone would be kind enough towards what would be the best build I could get for the 2* tier, I would greatly appreciate it!

Thanks,

Gear bonuses

Submitted by Soulwax on Mon, 04/18/2011 - 19:03

Do gear bonuses stack?

That is, for Vog Cup set they both offer "Attack Speed Increase: Medium" but does wearing both mean your attack speed is higher than wearing one? Do the two mediums combine to make a high or something.

Also with charge times, a level 10 bomb will have Charge Time Reduction: Medium, so does wearing the Mad Bomber suit reduce the charge time again as it also offers Charge Time Reduction: Medium.

Thanks for the help

Newb questions!

I've been playing for a few hours here and there. I had to stop and close the game to do other things a few times, and I've noticed that I can return to what I was doing when I quit. I keep going back to the beginning.

Is that supposed to happen or is there a way to resume at the depth I was at when I quit?
