The 25% mana reduction only works in catacombs, but even so it really doesn't matter which slot you cast out of for profs. Most people attack from their main and heal from their acc, but if your heal charm has nice adds then there is nothing wrong with using it in the main slot. Just remember that catacombs absolutely sucks for gaining profs so arena is the way to go.


For example, my MQ charms are both very straightforward and the only useful mods is EE on each of them (here's a link if you want to check it out), so I use my earth in the main slot and my heal in the acc slot. However, my good friend Jesse has a heal charm with 27 intelligence on it, so he uses that in the main slot (here's a link to his char).



Basically, it doesn't make the slightest difference in your profs what slot you cast from hope that helps

the information is fact

if u wish
u could use a lower level charm, so that it takes more hits to kill the monster
therefore more prof is built

imo

I highly disagree with this method. Your killing speed will drop significantly and since you can only get a max of 10 prof points per mob then it won't really help you at all to be sitting there casting 20 - 30 times at one mob. I think you'd be better off just forgetting about proficiencies all together and then will come with time as you slash.


I don't get what you are asking is fact or not but it is a fact that it doesn't make the slightest difference what slot you cast from

ok let me rephrase my question if I understand and am doing the math correctly

let's just say for example my charm I am using is 100 ee in the main slot and for example it takes 25 mana to cast it each time
is it more benefical as a solo person to use that charm in the main slot gaining the full effects of the charm
or placing it in the acc slot and losing 25% of the charms effect BUT also taking less mana to cast it, therefor increasing how many times I can actualy cast it

100ee - 25% = 75 ee || 25 mana - 25% = 18.75

in the acc slot my 100ee charm would be only 75 ee but it would only cost 18.75 mana instead of 25 to cast it

this is my question on what would be more beneficial to use, hope this makes more sense.

yes but the 25% mana less to cast is only for catacombo and not arena

not to mention if you use a low lvl weapon the dmg will be lower and you will probally lvl before your mana run out

thus a waste of casting
