Vog Cub vs. Skolver?

I don't know which one I should use :/ I have a Very High CTR Calibur, meaning attacking with charge attacks is usually much more effective, so IAS wouldn't do crap. However, I'm probably going to end up needing Vog Cub when I start going to Vanaduke. So should I get Skolver and then get Vog Cub later (with a DA probably), or skip Skolver and use Vog Cub?

How do you use a Flourish??

A month ago, Fiends were giving me the most painful experience in my life in this game, and I tried to do something about it by getting a Flourish. What happened, you might be asking? Well, not only did Fiends still kill me every time even on Tier 1, EVERYTHING ELSE started killing me too because it was IMPOSSIBLE TO HIT ANYTHING.

Suggestions for this setup

Currently, I have the Ash Tail set, a boosted plate shield (3*) and I am planning to upgrade my ash tail to Vog, so I was wondering which path i should take for my plate shield. From what I understand, with the Vog cub i have fire and elemental defense, and I would strengthen that with the volcanic plate shield. However, it seems that the volcanic plate shield would be use for FSC and other fire/elemental strata that I go into.

On Crafting and UVs

Submitted by verde on Thu, 08/18/2011 - 19:17

It's well documented that each craft has a small chance to produce 1 to 3 Unique Variants (UV). It's also clear you can keep a UV through Alchemy crafting by selecting the Transfer Variant option on the craft screen. However, I am unclear on this scenario:

Let's say all the random math rolled on the server and your next craft is lucky enough to get two UVs.

You're crafting an item with an existing single UV

Scenario 1: You've unchecked Transfer Variants and received 2 random UVs. Congrats!
Scenario 2: You've left Transfer Variants selected. ...

Uv

Submitted by Hova on Thu, 08/18/2011 - 18:23

  • The Arsenal

So, I'm no damage expert hence why I'm posting this question, about how much damage does a UV bonus: Low increase to any monster family? I know that each increase is like 7% more damage or something, I'm just wondering how much more damage it gives, like only about 10 more damage or so?

I'm asking this because I got a Bonus damage to Fiends that's low on my Avenger and am wondering if I should get rid of it to get a chance for better ones.

Is argent peacemaker REALLY that bad?

I really enjoy that it shoots really fast and its one of the few guns that does 6 shots. Alchemers to me feel too slow and same with the magnus series. I understand that it does split damage but is it really awful if i use it? I want to be strong gunslinger and I like the feel of this gun but I feel like I might not do as much damage as I could with alchemers.

Barbarous Shield - Avoid Breaking Instantly?

Submitted by Cuppy-Cake on Thu, 08/18/2011 - 13:14

  • The Arsenal

I use blitz needle in duke fights because the dps is insane. However, there can be a time when I can't move away fast enough to dodge his hammer and can only just shield in time. I use barbarous thorn shield, and this breaks in one hit + I receive fire and stun. I use full skolver (no fire or elemental resist) so that fire hurts like a [tart].

So, which UV is best to stop a hammer breaking barbarous thorn shield in one hit, and how high of a UV would be required?

I was thinking Elemental High/Max.

[Question/Need Advice] Divine Avenger

Submitted by VeryNiceShot on Thu, 08/18/2011 - 01:59

I want a [Divine Avenger CTR Med].
The thing is my resources are limited and I have a [Divine Avenger Damage Bonus High vs Gremlin].
Should I unbind and sell it to buy a [Sealed Sword CTR Med]?
Or should I just re-roll it's UV until I get [CTR Med] on my [Divine Avenger]?
The problem with the first option is the difficulty in raising up funds for the unbinding fee and selling it (I'm a F2P Player).
Is [Divine Avenger Damage Bonus High vs Gremlin] worth it, to pay the cost of unbinding [4000 CE] and selling it?.
