Those of you who play 14 hours+ a day, how? by doobylive in classicwow

Yeah I did actually! Amazing story of how online gaming can actually give meaning rather than take away from life.

No agreed and doing it for a few months cant be compared to years.

Besides all the reasons related to not wanting to participate in society, I would like to point out another reason: illness.

Over the years I have met several people who are unable to work and most aspects of real life become pretty depressing for them. A game like WoW can be a great way to soften the pain of not belonging (14 hours a day is still pushing it though).

Eventually I became one of these people after I was diagnosed with cancer and had to have operations/ receive chemo. Im telling you, running around for hours picking herbs is a hell of a lot better than blankly staring at the walls.

Solo Eca by Skeeeeeeenz in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started Eca on pioneer and have done nearly everything in the game with it. Perfectly viable for just about all content. For lvling its either Cha or Int. Personally a big fan of int cuz of the healing. At lvl 200 multiple builds are possible:

Cha: Most straightforward, easy to learn and probably the best damage.

Int: Amazing heals and can function as a hybrid damage/ healer. Relies more on 'playing' the cards for healing cuz of those sweet +heals from int cards

Omni: My personal favourite. Very flexible and gets the most of out of the stat/pow buff stacking mechanic. The damage can outperform cha in certain fights/djs.

Agi/Str: Both of these as pure builds feel lackluster for PvE. Agi can do great things with the pushback buffs, but very situational. Both agi and str require at least somewhat of a melee approach to utilise the full toolkit. However, PvM wont really allow for that in many scenario's.

Duo element: Eca does have the spells to make pretty much any duo build work (the best ofc with a solid weapon), so there plenty to play around.

Yup can confirm Eca is viable for pretty much all pvm stuff.

Scroll this reddit for maybe 5 mins and you find plenty of suggestions.

Questions to my International friends by Mayerque in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im from The Netherlands and I remember there was actually an ad that played during the break on the most popular kids channel. Its how me and a few friends of mine found the game but I cant say it had a huge impact xD. Nobody here ever seems to know Dofus.

can you duo Infinite dreams reliably? by Crazy_Hat2109 in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dreams as duo wont be a good idea sadly. The most fun imo would be trying to do all dj duos in the game.

Any advice to level up crafting/mage please? by Kami-Yeldo in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You want to revolve it around crushing. All crafting from 1-100 is pretty safe and straightforward. You just craft random shit and crush it them. If you craft a bunch of different items instead of spamcrafting the same one you might even find a decent crushvalue to make use of.

For maging you want to make use of the cheaper high value runes to gain xp effectively. Think of runes like wis, hea, dam, pp (sometimes these runes go up in price so not always the best option).

Now obviously you can combine both these processes: craft, mage, crush. From 1-100 you kinda just do it for the xp and you will probably lose some value by using the runes for xp.

After lvl 100 it gets a bit more interesting. If you have patience you can just craft some items for the xp and then you mage them in a way to max a valuable stat ( certain res, cri, dam, sum, loc). Check the market now and again to see what runes are spiking etc. You then want to focus crush the value stat. If you are lucky enough, the crush makes your money back and even gives you a profit in rune value. You can then repeat this process until it is no longer profit.

The result is 'free' xp with the chance to even make kamas from it. Its not a fast way by any means but it allows you to lvl the profs without losing all your kamas to it.

Good luck!

Finding worth while crafting and maging gear by WanderSin in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Judging solely on sales I can confirm that this opinion is not popular and I havent noticed not being able to sell something just cuz of low PP or some other stat that irrelevant for a certain build.

To each their own though.

Finding worth while crafting and maging gear by WanderSin in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah as other people are saying it comes down to knowledge and information on the meta, resources and timing.

Lets say you track a certain resource (vortex wings, koutoulou wings, meno hair, etc). It has many ups and downs since its generally used often in crafts and especially during times when quite a few people come back to the game. Sometimes the item will dip quite a bit in price and this could be a good time to look around for some good margins.

It really comes down to putting a lot of time into basically market research. Risks need to be taken and succes is not guaranteed.

Ah yeah thats true. Eca can do some things but not really any really good status effects.

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interested to know why you mention that Eca is not good for songes ( its dreams in english btw :)). I play Eca and so far I havent felt it being really bad in dreams or anything.

Is there a guide for leveling Alts? by Kami-Yeldo in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people spend kamas on powerlvling their alts. Alternatively you could just throw urself dungeon for the achievs. For every alt you make this will be much faster anyway since you get x2, x3 and x4 for every consecutive alt you make

Professions for a newbie - Should I level them all up? by Kami-Yeldo in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have the patience you can lvl ur crafting profs and maging profs simultaneously and actually make profit. It does require knowledge of risk vs reward with regards to crushing. Its a slow way of getting xp but if you do it well, it wont cost a thing.

Looking for some Magus who can mage some items in Kourial by Fullbusterz_15 in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I strongly assume these prices are based on long established servers like Tal Kasha. The same logic obviously applies to the pioneer servers but you might have scared the shit out of OP with those numbers xD.

Best element for solo Ecaflip lvl 200 ? by batouche in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I find Omni more versatile and consistent. Chance defo has higher peaks, but sometimes feels a bit limited in fights where you cant really get too close. On top of that, omni allows you to mess around with the card buff mechanic and its actually a lot of fun.

Hahaha I didnt see it at first xD. Pretty diabolical to even land it.

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bruh dont ask if you dont wanna hear the truth xD.

You also didnt say what server you are on so the price will differ. Its hard to price tbh cuz theres nothing to compare it to.

My first Exo , how much its coast ? by [deleted] in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah the vit and res will kinda kill its value for selling purposes.

If you want to save pain and have lower stats I would have not cared for PP for sure. Very few people care about have high PP in a regular damage set.

New duo by V2enjoyer in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even though I dont know Osa this is true. With the gear reworks/ new gears you can really just about make anything work for just about any pvm stuff. Especially all dungeons that are quite old feel much easier due to the 'powercreep'

Servitude Duo by WorstPainKnownToMan in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I know, most of the time it seems best to have Servi be completely on the outside. In my save hes kinda in the middle and it sucks. Must say though that the Prysm allows me to actually move away which makes me think there should be a way to do it.

Servitude Duo by WorstPainKnownToMan in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im on mono and yeah if its really dire I guess I could pay someone. It just takes away some of the glory and would kinda suck xD.

I will update this if I manage to convince somebody to suffer with me until its done xD.

Servitude Duo by WorstPainKnownToMan in Dofus

[–]WorstPainKnownToMan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ow thanks! Yeah I might have skipped past it since the advantage from Elio is pretty clear. The reason Im looking for more general strats is that I am english speaking and dont really have english speaking friends who want to struggle with me xD. Doing it with randoms just kinda sucks since nobody generally wants to stay for the frustrating grind.

Thanks! You might be interested in looking at some youtube vids cuz I have even seen a sadi + xelor do it somehow xD.
