what if you have a new SC player that isn't part of your 200+ee crew? they're literally suffering from the same issue, except gear being more accessible

I am well aware that HH is the best melee class, which is why I am even more surprised I'm having issues playing up to the MQ level

You were offered multiple solutions to improve your solo experience and yet you are still ignoring it.

Just ask CARTRACK that you refuse to listen to. He is a new player and he said that game is easy enaugh

He said the game was easy enough in a group of 5 players. Are you pulling a CARTRACK on me?

I'm taking your suggestion of going more str/dex instead of full vita next run, but I have a feeling that the 50 damage of difference aren't gonna suddenly keep me alive.

And of course an edit again: what were multiple solutions in your book? I have only seen yours to avoid full vita.

more damage = monster die faster = less damage taken by you

possible solutions I already suggested are:

- use a 55 map with no immunes/stunners
- whistle the last 3-5 levels
- use less vitality to improve clear speed
- use fish / shrine after the mob died to heal up again
- use salvation + double strike

e: also if you hurt mobs they are more likely to heal themself instead of attacking you, try to hurt multiple mobs

oh yeah the maps, because they're so easily available, but reasonable

whistling still spawns 3 mobs

vita is reasonable

I do already use fish and shrine after mobs die (I have the highest fishes in HC so I do use way too many in combat too when necessary)

I do use stuff like double strike, and on HH it's kinda hard to use salvation, I do that on any other class though

so you're right, there are two reasonable solutions, of which one is, once again, item related, but definitely better for casters (and avoiding stunners)

with the amounts of full explore climbs done by Oasis the last couple weeks, there should be a supply of high level maps available in HC
Vita is reasonable yes, I didn't question that, BUT too much vitality is not

nono, I meant your suggestion is reasonable (to use less vita and go for more damage), don't get me wrong
I was just (way too quickly) evaluating these options

I'm gonna give it a shot next time, but I can't really do much more than that

I voted no. The game is not that hard if you stat your character properly and use the correct abilities for soloing.

Come play softcore if hardcore too hard



Agree
