I wish I could , damned work



I got 4-5 levels last night , just plain slow regen . I have 6 k magic now and kill 10-15 monsters per regen . But it takes forever to get the magic regenerated .

Nate, what are you using for regen?

I have a level 30 magic regen robe (that I'm trying to pry from my afk friends' hand) that's +7. Need it?

Charm wise...Just a +6 magic regen. And a level 55 7/7 regen. Nothin special

I have a 8 magic regen lvl 35 staff , 9 life regen lvl 30 robe , and a 8 magic / 7 life regen lvl 15 charm . I just bought a 10 magic regen lvl 40 robe which is helping me quite a bit more but plain and simple casters have ALOT longer regen time needed as opposed to Melee not to mention the Not So Super Sexy 5-15 k exp per kill . I will get there , just will take time with only 2 hours per night to slash ( Wife wants to cut that down too )

Thanks for offering some gear for regen , but my really weak link in my setup is my 30 int staff . If I can find a better staff , I will be alot faster . Also , what is good damage for a caster ? I am doing 900-1100 damage per hit right now.

Of course, that's my main beef with the game. Ladder Slasher favors Melee characters in many ways. Life Steal, one mention. Plus, most of the unlocked characters not only favor Melee tendancies but are almost completely impossible for Caster characters. I'd like to see a switch in Season 6 where one or more characters would switch tendancies to favor Int/Vit as opposed to Str/Dex.

That or, what I've wanted for so long, two archtypes of Samurai, Paladin, etc. Players could choose which type they'd want to play, one favor melee, the other favor caster.

Though, it probably won't happen. All I can really do is take satisfaction to the point where if I ever did pass a MQ, or multiple in succession, and the season did last 6 months, and I did have Abby's gear, and I did have all the time in the world; I could go the distance playing as a caster.

Edit:


I guess it all depends on charm+INT.

Yup , I agree with you Jay , but casters do have a nice advantage of consistent damage at higher levels which melee doesnt have now . I think if they balance the vita and str issues casters could be alot stronger. I think int and Dex are the only two attributes that are fine where they are. But ya , I hear you mang

I have 235 int I believe and my charm is lvl 40 ice w/ 166 ee , 38 int

Then you should be doing a lot better damage than me

What's your damage ?

Anywhere between 3xx and 11xx (guess it just depends on what kinda monsters I'm fighting)

Using this now:

Rare mithril dagger
Level Req: 25
Damage: 36 to 64
+48 Intelligence
+421 Max Life

This is my main:

Angelic diamond dagger
Level Req: 40
Damage: 50 to 88
+16 Strength
+48 Intelligence
+2 Magic Regen
+4% Damage Return

My robe:

Rare silksteel padded robe
Level Req: 45
Defense: 0 to 31
+49 Intelligence
+1 to 34 Life per Kill

And my weakness:

Rare fire XI
Level Req: 40
Spell Damage: 212 to 567
Magic Cost: 105
+150% Enhanced Effect
+6 Magic Luck

Edit: Just noticed I gained 4 levels in two hours...Certainly not the speed demon I used to be.

Still know how you passed by me last season... quite many times xD

Nice gear :x

Thanks, taken me many trades (or tries and do-overs) to get that stuff the way I like it.

Ask Nate, I started putting together my magician setup back in February.

Right now, I just need:

Level 15 charm
Level 25 charm
Level 45 charm

Magic or Dual regen robe (low level)
Item slot Robe (low level)
Item slot Wep (high level)

And I'm done for good (I have variations of most of this stuff, but never satisfied)
