Okay, so here's something I'm really curious about:

When a piece of armor has a certain amount of Defense bars for Normal, Piercing, Elemental or Shadow resistance, it's understood that that's just reflecting that one item, not your overall stats, so they're additive. Meaning if you have a helmet that gives 5 bars of Normal and 3 bars of Piercing, and an armor that gives 5 bars of Piercing and 4 bars of Elemental, your total defense is 5 Normal, 8 Piercing and 4 Elemental.

So basically I've spent $20 on CE and got some decent gear out of it...got the basics of the game down but I can't figure out any decent way to make any good money...I've just been running jelly king cuz it makes 6-8k crowns a run...is there a different tier I should be running that can guarantee greater output? I need to get the money to buy 3 5* recipes and i can't seem to get anywhere near the crowns to do it...Any pointers? Thanks

I thought I heard somewhere that one can move equipment between the three characters you can create. How do you do this? Thanks in advance.

Reading the wiki I can see the slight damage improvement, but other than that what changes between the Ascended Calibur and the Leviathan Blade? Im guessing knockback, AOE of normal and charged attacks, etc? Can anyone who has spent some time leveling up both weigh in on this?

So you've just crossed over from the new player zone into the Haven, it's a bright beautiful day in town, and the first thing that hits you is a chat wave of

WTS !!!MATS!!! all mats many mats PM me
WTS Weapon You've Never Heard of. Make an offer - I'm sure you know what a fair price for it would be, don't you?
WTS Even more mats!!!!!! And you can tell my prices are fair because I say so

Pretty overwhelming, huh? But it won't seem that way after you read this guide.

Let's start with:
[The Basics]

Simple question, I just don't know the answer to it.

Just wondering if there's any advantage in leveling up your weapon/armor before upgrading it to the next series. Like, is there a higher chance of receiving a UV, or having a higher attack/defense. I'm assuming the answer is 'no', but I just want to make sure. And I know that some series require the level of the item to be level 10, but not all. I'm just asking because I think it would be pretty cool if that was the case!

Sorry if this has been posted before. It seems like everyone gets the money, heat, and tokens that everyone picks up. But the crafting materials seem totally random. One person will get 3 or 4 in a row and one person won't get any. Is that based on anything or is it totally random?

I'm relatively new here and I fairly understand most aspects of the game however I really can't understand how the gate map works.
Do you go through every level or only one level per depth or something entirely different?

Since I am new and not sure exactly where to post this question I will start here and if it is incorrect then someone please direct me to the right spot. Anyway with all of that said, I have a question over energy usage. I have been playing for a little while and just recently my son has started playing as well. I have discovered that although we have seperate accounts when we both play using my computer it uses up both of our energy at the same time. Is this normal? If so why? Cause it stinks... I don't know if I have set some sort of custom setting or anything?

Friends has been asking me, how come your so pro? How do you can switch weapons fast? What is your secret? etc? Well, the simple reason is my alternate control layout. So those who think that the default controls are a little stiff, or wanting to find a better alternative to out-win your foes, you should give this control layout a try. Maybe it will help you own some noobs! =D

Major Control Layout:
Action - Left Mouse
Defend - Right Mouse and/or space
Prev Weapon - Q
Next Weapon - E
Auto Target - Left Shift

Then lastly...
Uncheck the box that says "Auto Target"
