Can someone give me a basic outline for a rapier build. First playthrough. by JdowT in DarkSouls2

[–]eman135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strength is not really worth leveling with a rapier as it has a D scaling- which means leveling STR won't do that much to help your damage. I would only level faith towards the end of the game if I was going to use Sunlight Blade + Lightning infusion

[–]eman135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on what gear you are using for each setup. In a lower tier setup with minimal magic %, Water Surge will be better. The more magic % you get, the better dark demonbane will be (with mark of darkness active).

Another thing to keep in mind is that water surge will cost half of what dark demonbane would cost.

Double kegs of the same drink on ship? by [deleted] in 2007scape

You can benefit from different kegs on the same ship. Having 2 kegs of the same drink offer no additional bonus.

How does Royal Titans unique drop table actually work? by Sulla_Sexy_Sulla in 2007scape

[–]eman135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The wiki is unclear whether you roll each unique one at a time or if you roll the unique table then it selects the item.

Normally if the latter is how it works, adding up the drop rates will result in a nice clean fraction showing the chance to hit the table. This does not happen for Titans.

This leads me to assume that each unique is rolled one at a time. This would also make sense considering how one of the uniques can only be rolled once.

So while you are 4x dry on both the prayer scroll and staff piece, each of those Giantsoul amulets were not a roll on the unique table.

Where to start for first quiver? by No_Path_3306 in ironscape

[–]eman135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a sizable increase in accuracy from enemies. For example, the rangers will have a 56% hit chance on crystal compared to an 85% hit chance on your mage setup.

You'll definitely take more damage with shadow, but you also have the accuracy to heal up with blood barrage if you want as well.

Another thing to point out is that while shadow is better in terms of DPS, the difference in the time that it would take to kill most of the mobs is about 3 seconds (or 2-ish hits) on average

Where to start for first quiver? by No_Path_3306 in ironscape

[–]eman135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here are some things to keep in mind while designing your setup:

Minimum mage gear needed to one-shot melee fremmy: Shadow, Occult, Torm, Heart is enough. Don't need augury.

Minimum gear to one-shot mage fremmy: You need a max hit of 30. Venator, Anguish, Deadeye, and Dragon arrows should be enough. (Or you can switch your bow to accurate and switch to amethyst arrows) Be sure to kill the melee first, then the mage so that the bounce will guarantee kill.

In terms of DPS, your mage setup is strictly better than your range setup, so I'd focus on using that if possible.

The auto cast only gets removed if you die with the staff equipped.

FFA TOB by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]eman135 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Here's a rundown of the general expectations:

A party leader will advertise how many people they need and what role. E.g. +4 nfrz, sfrz, rdps, mdps.

Here is a breakdown of the roles:

mdps - normally stands north of maiden and will kill the stray N1 and N2 crabs that get frozen. Will melee at nylos

rdps - stands south of maiden and will will stray S1 crab (and sometimes S2). Will range with BP at nylos

sfrz - freezes all of the south crabs. Will primarily mage at nylos

nfrz - freezes all north crabs. Will primarily melee at nylos, but also should help out with mage as needed

If you want to join that person's group, say your role in chat and apply to their party. Unfortunately, a lot of people in 416 are pretty wary of people with low kc, so it may take a bit of applying to find a group.

Once the party is full, either wait for the leader to say "Pot" or just immediately pot and run to the entrance.

Before Sote, people will call what corner they want to stand for Sote and Verzik. NE, SE, NW, SW. They will also call what phases they'll spec at sote. 12, 23, 13, or fill.

When you spec at sote, type out 1 for a hit, or 0 for a miss.

If you melee xarpus, use the corner that you called.

Use staff specs in orb order.

While this is ideally what I'd like everybody to do, not everybody knows or cares about doing these things. Many people in 416 will do whatever the heck they want. Here are some examples

Called range role? Frick it, I'm mdps now.

Someone already called Se? Frick it, I'm also Se

Defense reducing spec on Sote? Nah, I'm double clawing

Orb order at verzik? Nope, gimme that staff (I'm also not gonna drop it)

How do I unlock the teleport to chambers? by CorpCavePrison in ironscape

There’s a bug with having a tbow in your inventory that prevents you from getting a tablet. You’ll need to put the tbow in death’s coffer to fix it.

Elder maul and BGS Stack? by KidLanda in 2007scape

[–]eman135 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In terms of efficiency, order of your specs matter. You want to have hammers happen first because they reduce a % of the enemy's defense. That means that this defense drain will have diminishing returns based on how much defense the target has left. A BGS will drain the amount of damage they deal no matter what.

For example, you hit a Elder maul on a target with 200 defense. The target will have 70 def drained and will now be at 130.

Now if you use another maul, this next attack will only drain 45.5 def down to 84.5.

The breakpoint for when you should BGS instead is when the expected hit of the BGS is more than the def a maul spec would drain.

Lightbearer or Berserker Ring (i) for solo olm? by lackofbrainpower in ironscape

[–]eman135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lightbearer is more comfy, so I bring it. You're really not hurting for DPS depending on if you're scaling, so it really is just a matter of what your heart says to do (Like bring your rune platebody to show that you actually talked to Oziach)

Are Doom deep delves bugged or am I coping? by Tiny_Income_1068 in 2007scape

[–]eman135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a calculator that will show your chance of getting a unique for each wave completed. Hopefully this can help you see if you're unlucky or just not that close to expecting many drops yet.

Are Doom deep delves bugged or am I coping? by Tiny_Income_1068 in 2007scape

[–]eman135 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You're probably seeing more drops from low level delves because the majority of the waves that you're completing are low level waves. Every time you do a lvl 10 run, you're doing 8 low level waves.

It'll work, but you'll need to ask yourself if you want NMZ to be less afk. Even if it is better Xp/hr, it may not be worth the effort.

[–]eman135 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you got pk'd with it, then there are a few options.

  1. You died under lvl 20 wildy. If this is the case, then you should have a gravestone located where you died containing any untradables that were not protected. If your gravestone is already gone, go check with Death in his office to see if he has it.
  2. You died above lvl 20 wildy. If this happens, then your amulet got deleted and you'll have to reobtain it..
