Damage bonus stacking

I have a Bristling Buckler, a Wolver Cap, a Wolver Coat and a Hot Edge with UV "Damage Bonus vs Gremlins: High".

Yet when I inspect myself (using that horsehead button to the top right), I see on my Hot Edge that it has "Damage Bonus vs Gremlins: Maximum!"; is this because the Low Damage bonuses from my cap, buckler and coat stack with that? (This would mean if I de-equip my buckler it would become Ultra vs Gremlins, and if I de-equip my coat as well it'd become Very High vs Gremlins. This would also mean that if I had a Skolver Cap instead, the bonus vs Gremlins would not increase.)

Questions about Shields

1. I got an Avenger recently and the only thing I am not happy with is its abysmal speed. So I decided to buy a Swiftstrike Buckler recipe. Can you really notice the speed boost? Does it make a difference? And how does Swiftstrike cope with monsters (T2)? Especially Slimes and Constructs because I usually only do Jelly runs.

How am I supposed to gear up?

Guys , I have a terrible doubt here:

Some levels are like this:

1st floor - Ice Arena;
2nd floor - Poison Arena;
3rd floor - Ghosts and Jellos;
4th floor - Fire arena;
5th floor - Change your clothes and buy recipes;
6th floor - More ghosts and jellos;
7th floor - Something entirely different for which you havent been prepared at all...

Is there a kind of combination that can provide you protection against EVERYTHING?
If not, how can I change clothes between floors (like changing my ice-resistant to fire-resistant b4 they burn my bottoms to hell!) ?

5* Sword with movement on first strike

Submitted by Sillty on Mon, 07/04/2011 - 01:16

  • The Arsenal

Is there a 5* sword that moves on the first strike like the spur? For me, that movement makes the spur more effective than a flourish against large groups of devilites, since it helps me dodge the projectiles. But I'm not sure I want to get used to a weapon line that won't work in T3.

Thanks!

Faust Worth Upgrading to Gran Faust?

Submitted by truefriend on Sun, 07/03/2011 - 22:31

  • The Arsenal

Just like the title said, is it worth upgrading the Faust to Gran Faust? From the stats from the wiki, the Gran Faust's stat is the exact same as Faust (ie no damage increase). The only advantage I can think of upgrading is the slim chance of getting an UV, but I don't think it worth the cost. Thanks!

Health Bonuses with my armor

Submitted by Tweak4ever on Sun, 07/03/2011 - 17:25

  • The Arsenal

I'm a little confused and annoyed about the listed health bonuses from my approximately level 7 Dusker cap and coat. When I'm in Haven the health bonus is listed as +3 each, but when i go to the clockworks or the training hall, it only gives me +1 health bonus each. It even says in it's stats that it is only +1

What the hell is going on?
