Seem to remember someone trying before, but by the time you get her she's really low level, and doesn't really come with anything unique that would justify using her.

She's basically a melee bell (You need to give her hands) that uses Shadow Step a fair amount. Not a bad pet, but it really depends on how quickly you get her since she's only level 15.

If you can get a bell of termination there's no point to using her. Unless you want to have a tiny maid-shaped bell without just changing the sprite, that is.

I started a new character intending to use the minimum of scumming, I found my first living weapon and so enter into a dilemma. Savescum in living weapons or not?

Living weapons can have like 5% of usefulness without savescumming, that takes away 95% of the utility of these weapons due their addition of enchantment completely random. I started this new character because I savescummed living weapons in the previous character, now I don't know if I should leave them (the weapons) aside because of the unlikely usefulness, or break my initial rule only for this case. wat do

Overdose is basically a jump-start to your early game, since you skip about 75-100 hours of grinding. However, you pretty much hit the same cap as everyone else late game due to the potential cap. I'd recommend regular mode for the original experience, but it's up to you.

This is a little late, but I'm mostly a melee fighter as well. It'd probably be helpful if you picked up another hand or two from Gavela, which would allow you to dual wield and use extra shields or tonfa when necessary. If you use the Otogiri on your 3rd hand or higher and use weapons on the other hands with light equipment weight, it removes the dual wield casting penalty entirely. Abusing buffs with magic enhancement items really helps too. Putting the Vital slayer in your shoot spot can really improve your Cure of Jua healing, which is almost necessary later on.

Probably should have mentioned that starting as a golem, it's almost better to ignore your personal speed for a while and pick up riding as soon as possible. Even with the boots and speed rings, it'd be rough to finish North Tyris so you can make it to the AP shop.

Get more arms,regularly try to eat herbed food,hog as MUCH of the "It increases your chance of extra melee attack" #####+ equipment as possible,spam the hell out of Hero and/or consider using things with Pierce

Doing 2 or 3 of those things will probably get you doing decently against generics sans maybe some of the crazier ones like a Nyarthlatep but bosses are a lost hope without putting in a hundred hours.

I wanna be an asshole for a bit though and say that the melee game is something you really should let your pets handle. It's a long painful road and in Elona+ your PC is clearly meant to just hang back and simply let one of his 400-500 speed pets whack away while you occasionally heal them and maybe piss off the enemy a bit while standing behind your pets.

If you're doing ranged stuff only, using tonfas, claws, and whatever else that increases your ranged damage can be pretty fun. You can save scum marksman onto something and get some nice improvements, since at level 10 you get about +46 on one wep.

>>12137887
There's a new folder that the pcc sprites are contained in, since they've split up the old sprites from the new versions. New sprites go in the PCCs folder inside the graphics folder. The old sprites were designed to be viewed with a reduced size, and that's probably why they're sometimes resized badly. Sprites can be set to be viewed as "Full-size" in the in-game graphics settings.

>>12137922
This problem might be cause by the "use Windows dialog box" thing, not something to do with your sprites.

ZANTETSU. It's perfect! Same absolute pierce as the Pile Driver but as a long sword. Thank you very much! I'm going to lose my double-stamina drain powered Prayer of Jure, but it's been getting weaker as I've levelled, and I'm using Cure of Jure recently.
Also I still haven't come across the Twin Edge during my 315+ hour game... I'll have to check the Dome to see if i accidentally lost it or something.

I already regularly eat herbed food, have a somewhat leveled Hero spell, and will soon be using Zantetsu. I'm fine with everything sans Lv 400+ dungeon bosses, awakened dungeons past level 200, and seven headed gods.
I'm stronger than all of my pets (though I need to ride Lityou/Mra for the speed boost), I just don't want to Astral Light Pen a void monster or Lost Irva Tour Planner.

There's no ingame way, which is a real problem with custom music sometimes, since you actually have to modify the files if they're too quiet and re-encode them. The game at least needs a way to change the volume of the sound effects and music individually. This will probably never be done unless the java port is finished in a decade or so.

>>12137981
I actually can't remember if it was possible before, but nothing in the void works with the Astral Pen now. Awakened dungeon enemies and stuff in the Cradle don't work either. It also doesn't seem to work on anything that is normally able to be dominated now. Couple this with the version 1.37 Panic quest change that won't let you dominate the monsters, and your high level choices get extremely limited.

The problem with this is that the level that you need to get the spell to for this to work is next to impossible to get, since you can only get the spell from wonder scrolls or dreams.

They aren't real feats, and are attached to the actual class name. So you can change the name with a business card and get the feat attached to that name. The name has to be in lowercase to work.

Late game player reporting in. Been playing off and on over the years. When I began playing I decided to go with a ranged character but later picked up magic. Here are my observations for late game.

- Magic is absolutely essential and I wished I picked it up earlier. While you can use magic to deal damage the main reason why you need it is for the buffs, healing, and utility it brings to the table. Teleport has saved my ass so many times when fighting dungeon bosses. Just teleport away and heal up(Spell/Rest). Create Wall is useful for creating a hallway to fight powerful creatures one at a time. 4-d pocket I use to store all the stuff I don't want to carry with the added perk that food stored in the 4-d pocket doesn't ever spoil. Hero and Holy Shield are nice buffs and holy light is absolutely essential because it removes hexes. Seriously, I can't imagine how anyone can do any of the 200+ lv dungeons without magic...

- Best way to get gold I found is just doing high level dungeons. Eventually they'll give you almost a million gold each time you clear a high enough level dungeon. Also, dungeon clearing is great for getting gold medals which I use primarily to buy those hermes potions for speed. Sometimes you may find potions of upperspeed in them too.

- Best source of exp later on imo are panic quests. The monsters in them are pretty much boss levels meaning that when you complete one you should be well on your way to your next level if you picked a panic quest that is sufficiently hard but still doable.

- Herbs are one way to keep your stat potentials up but for the most part I just rely on potions of potential. I just stack potions of potential I find from dungeons or on vendors and bless the stack. Consuming 3-4 of them usually puts all my stat potentials to superb because because a blessed potion of potential actually affects all your stats instead of just one.

- Completing quests is how I farm platinum coins with some panic quests giving me 10 on finish.

Just realized that any ranged weapons in hand weapon slots will train blunt weapon proficiency.

Now I remember having realized this before, don't seems to be something normal, though.

Also, I did some tests and it seems that getting AP now has an essential relation with the level of the opponent, the power factor (status) is no longer uniqe dominant, the difference between the levels is a simple feature that will prevent you from getting AP even if the attributes of the opponent is sufficiently larger than yours. With my "tests" I realized that difference of levels should be 15 between you and the adversary, even with all the conditions for you to earn AP, if the creature has less than 15 levels of difference compared to your PC, you will not get AP at all. Having 15 levels of difference seems does not ensure you get AP too. With a level 15 character defeating an enemy level 43/46 with higher general stats and INI, for some reason did not provide me any AP. I tried to understand some determinant variable for this to happen, but there seems no. Even monsters with a level and stats many similiar, almost identical, sometimes one them gives you AP and the other don't for some reason that don't seem to be obvious.

This INI system seems to sucks and fucked up gain AP.

>> No.12139446

>>12139424
The Elona+ wiki has information on how AP is gained. For the most part it feels correct. I'm not gaining as much AP anymore due to how much speed I have and can only get AP from very high level monsters of certain types such as bells and red caps.

That it trains blunt weapon proficiency should be expected I suppose, but does it still use the relevant ranged skill for the melee attack? So would hitting something with a shotgun still use the firearm skill for deciding the attack's accuracy/damage modifiers, or does it use blunt weapon skill for that?

>> No.12139636

>>12139456
I dunno, but it seems that no skill in particular influences the damage. So it does not seem a good idea to use them exclusively, but it is a good way to train blunt since the damage depends entirely on the weapon used.

>>12139446
Oh, yes, the wiki covers much about the AP. Just doing tests because the gain of AP looks very nerfed in current updates. 30 hours on a new character in level 17 with only 3 AP. Can't effectively accumulate them, even in dungeons with 2 times my level and speed.

The AP gains changes in 1.37, and it doesn't seem that the wiki has been updated since no one that has figured it out has written it down yet. He's talking about the new INI stat that's up at the top of your character sheet, which influences whether you get AP from your target or not.

>>12139456
Pretty sure it still treats damage and to-hit modifiers as blunt, and uses tactics instead of marksman. Same thing with using a hand slot item in your shoot slot, which uses throwing instead. The range damage/to-hit modifiers are different for a melee wep compared to a normal throwing wep like a stone or panties, though.

Evolve that young lady as soon as possible. Greater potion throwing is really nice compared to her normal stuff. The other diary girl evos are kind of weak, although the dog sister's charge attack can be useful. You can get a King heart in South Tyris fairly easily, which will get your catsister an extra +50 life stat as well.

If you don't have a little girl for your group, you might want to consider wishing for ally once you get near 50. The little girl evolution uses cheer, which is nice since it will work on your character. You also get the choice between an that uses the Punishment hex that you get hit with when you change gods, or the Rain of Sanity special action, which is invaluable against a large group of Yith. Unfortunately, they don't start with the casting skill, so even a wished for little girl that's higher level will start with casting at 1 after being engineered.

Dunno if anyone was interested in this the last time I posted it up, but here's a few custom graphics sheets that can mostly be dumped in the Graphics folder. The ones that can't are the Gimp .xcf originals that are included. So if you hate some of the effects or sprite used on the big sheets, the .xcf are layered so you can disable individual items. There are some alternates too, but it's not an easy task to go through the whole tree to find stuff. The character sheet in particular has a lot of alternates, and I never finished separating it into individual sprites for stuff I only had one alternate for. It's actually easier to keep track of alternates that way than by using the chara_ or new item_ user folder replacements.

I just woke up and last night I dreamed I was inside the world of Elona.
I was a guy with a large party. (about 9 people) I can't remember all the party members, but I think there were 3 Elea (all male and they looked like the dark elves in Morrowind), 1 crow, 1 duck, 1 goose, and a few humans (some male, some female)

Most of the time we were in front of Vernis somewhere in the Wilderness, we did not fight any monsters though.
One thing that stood out was that I was unsure which one of my party members I should use as a mount. My speed was exactly 32. I tried riding several members to see if my speed went up by a considerable amount, but I was pretty much out of luck.
I also drank a potion which shrunk the size of my body so I was able to ride the crow, the goose and the duck. The best part of the dream was when I tried riding the crow, because I was able to fly up in the sky pretty high. (like 50 meters) Also great was that everything was in first person view and I now have a better feeling for what Tyris what would like in real life. It was pretty and pretty realistic, there were a lot of trees almost everywhere, with a lot of non-hostile wildlife and large mountains in the background.
I also just remembered that while I was flying the crow at one point I saw my body from a thrid person perspective. My character wore glasses, and a black robe. I looked almost like harry potter, but I had a crossbow strapped to my back.

I played a Fairy till now and I'm tired of grinding the rare scrolls of flying to get some decent PV out of armor, I want the hidden medium armor feat, which increases the casting chance by 5 percent and I picked some pretty stupid feats over time. I tried a warrior approach, but I can't wrap my head around this playstyle. Magic just seems too powerful and convenient. So I want to roll a new mage.

Should I pick Lich or Elea? The Eleas unique feats sound pretty good, but the Lichs resistances and more mana aren't too shabby either. Is there some good way to raise resistances? I know you can eat corpses and get some, but is it actually possible to pump up all of your resistances this way? I can't decide. What do you lategame players think?

Both Lich and Elea are good choices for a pure mage however I'm more biased towards Elea than Lich. Elea has racial feats that are unique and can't be gotten or compensated for later in the game whereas the resistances of the Lich can.

Having said that though rolling a pure mage at start leads to a harder start. Magic is awesome to be sure and everyone should pick it up as soon as possible but there are two things to keep in mind. 1) magic is a gold sink due to having to reserve and buy books. This can sting while starting out but luckily later on getting gold is trivial. Sure you can farm spellbooks in the puppy caves but no guarantee you'll get the spells you want/need 2) magic spells that do damage do not scale nearly as fast as the damage done by melee(swords, claws, etc) and ranged (bows, guns, etc). It's true though that you can make spells do as much damage as melee and ranged weapons but that requires twice as much time. The utility and healing spells are why you really should pick up magic.

So with that in mind another option is to roll a hybrid such as a Eulderna and some melee/ranged class or roll an Elea and some melee/ranged class. Warmage should be on the table too. Take advantage of fists, swords, guns, or bows for your damage source to begin with and supplement it with spells as you begin to earn gold.

So I should go with Elea then? I almost never had to worry about resistances as a fairy, but know after I played a warrior for some time, it's really something to think about.
>>12141296
I know. Some guy in the previous thread said
>Playing a Fairy *used* to be one of the really great choices, but that was before Elona+ I think. Possibly before the Void even? The resists used to be massively useful since in vanilla they were a lot harder to get.
Getting resistances up to normal doesn't sound so great and finding good equipment with the right resistances and some nice enchantments ain't easy. The wiki page states that's also not possible to get resistances for all damage types. Looks like the wiki page about the Fairy is correct.
>You'll be hard-pressed to get equipment with enough resistances to cover all the resistances fairies can get.

>>12141307
I know about the rough start. I can remember the countless hours I hid behind my little girl while searching for ancient and magic dart books in the Puppy cave over and over and over again. And I did some half-assed hybrid play with my Fairy. There too many big scary monsters I'd rather not go to and make friends with. I played a pure caster who sometimes smacked the enemies with her two sticks in close combat and I probably go with that again.

I may be indecisive about this, but I really don't wan't to get my shit stomped in after I invest time in a new mage. So, Elea and Wizard class it is then?

>> No.12141328

>>12141323
I usually go with Elea gunner if I want to play a caster. You'll start with all the skills required for magic, as well as some decent ones for dungeon-crawling, and it's also easier when you have some capacity for hybrid play.

The ether resistance isn't a big deal, cure corruption is very common, and etherwind is predictable anyway.

The overcast resistance, on the other hand, is definitely nice, but it's not game changing, since you could just train magic capacity, or use rods and scrolls of mana.

Just pick the race that you like the sound of the most.

>> No.12141344

>>12141323
It's possible to get 3/4 of your resistances as superb and maybe one or two at just strong without being a fairy. Just get the static artifacts dropped by certain bosses/npcs. Also, there's a spell buff that boosts your resistances as well and if you get really lucky and find a living weapon you can just stack resistances as you level it up to cover your weak spots.

>> No.12141359

>>12141344
This, although even just Superb is somewhat lacking. Playing a Fairy, even stuff that's just Superb## or so as opposed to the max it'll show (Superb#####+?) hurts a lot more.
Though I think my usual priority is magic resist, since it seems to be a little harder to get and is used for hex resist I believe. I'm only sitting at about 98 Life with equipment though, so the lower HP at my level is part of that.

Yeah, the Etherwind never really bugged me out, but it's still nice to have such a unique feat. I have to disagree with the overcast though. It was a pain in the butt to grind as a Fairy thanks to low HP and how goddamn slow it levels. I often wished I could go further into the red with my mana.

>>12141323
There's a new addition to the resistance page on the wiki if you're looking to add to resistances. And the guy mentioning static artifacts here >>12141344 is right. The equipment that gives resistance is easy to get as long as you progress enough in the main plot. Using race with extra life helps when you get far enough for Gavela to add a couple extra slots, since it takes about 10% of your life stat for each limb. Then you can use those slots to equip stuff that adds certain resistance as you need it. Plus also changed the resistance spell to add stuff besides fire/ice/lightning, so that also helps your resistances out a lot.

>>12141342
Although they have low base mana. dim resistance is pretty useful for a mage. That limits the dangerous situations for casters a bit. If only there was a race with some kind of conditional insanity immunity...

Cooking food sort of multiplies the time a certain food can stay fresh, like say something that might stay fresh two days can stay fresh a week after cooked, along with the other many benefits.
The item itself reveals if something is cooked or not, like the difference between a strawberry and strawberry parfait, so an NPC's food might be cooked or not cooked. Though keep in mind that most NPC's food will be rotten.

Granted, martial arts can be powerful when maxed, but it's far from the best. While you've got high base damage, you've only got 3 multipliers for it - strength, tactics, and martial arts skill, whereas with any other weapon, you've got strength, tactics, dual wield/two hand, and the appropriate weapon skill, which will also have a higher multiplier than that of martial arts. I did some testing with elosnack, weapons beat martial arts by a fairly significant amount, both in damage and accuracy, at ultra-endgame levels. That's not mentioning all the attributes that weapons can have, like time stop, absolute pierce, elemental damage, invokes, and much more.

You should probably not try to carry the happy bed with you, at least early on, unless you have a golden knight or something that you can actually get to carry furniture for you. Eastern beds work well for a portable bed, since they are very light and much higher quality than the sleeping bags.

Also, as far as wishes go, one thing you might want to consider later for is a secret experience of Kumiromi. The drops on those are ridiculously rare, and you stop getting feats around 50 or 60. There's always something interesting to pick up.

For portable wishes with rods, saving those in case you're nowhere near November can be useful if you want to pick up the special god rewards by summoning one. You can't use the Fetter of Earth for AP farming now in 1.37, but they are sometimes useful for training the stats that they give massive penalties to.

You really lose a lot by not being able to use your extra hand (or hands), and you lose your accuracy advantage when you're riding. You can potentially get decent speed, but having the extra chance for damage to go to the mount helps a lot sometimes too. Most recent late game players go to non-elemental magic, so the slots don't go to weapons because of their damage potential anyway. It's be kind of interesting to see if there was a build that added certain other equipment slots that could help with two-handing.

>>12144531
It doesn't seem to matter much, although it's probably better to use the best food item you can in order to get the best additional stat bonuses.

The thing to think about is: you have to make sure that you talk to the god before you end up praying, since that reduces your favor a bit. This isn't a big problem using a wish, but using the November truce ground prayer could potentially be a pain. Either way, it's not a big deal as long as you summon them in a place that they won't disappear from when it resets. Or somewhere that won't disappear itself, like somewhere that they are summoned to beat a boss for you, like the Forest of Doggod or the Void, or even a high level random dungeon.

So how do you guys train your pets? Having played solo for the most part I'm at a loss for training them up to aid me, I realise I could capture new pets but I'd still be stuck with training them eventually, I also kinda want to raise some of the cuter pets that start low level.

>> No.12146380

>>12146332
first off, I take them through level two or three dungeons with the cheer ability and let them get all nice and happy. Then I do any evolutions neccessary, then I make a fuckton of those gemstones with the pot of fusion, and after that it's herbed food and perserverance.

Really good equipment helps too.

For really really low levels, you can gene engineer higher level stuff onto them to give them skills and stats and any body parts they may be missing (cherubim and orc come to mind..) and it will also level them up.

That could be a pain, depending on your playstyle. Though it doesn't block shadow step, surprisingly.

I -have- the teleporting feat, but I think I've used it like twice so far. I always carry change creature rods with me, and my pets are either metal or have the cArmor bit.

What advantage is there in purposefully trying to keep your level low? I hear about people using potions of decent to downlevel and equipment with 'it disturbs your growth' to make sure they don't level up, but is there any benefit to this and is it really better than the HP/MP bonus?

If you pray at the Truce Grounds in November in version 1.37, you can summon the god you are worshiping. I'm pretty sure you need the 4025 favor that you usually need for your 3rd reward, since I think I've managed it at the same time as that. It also only seems to work once a year, so you can't hurry up and do it again before the month is over.

Additionally, if your house is rank 1, you can invite them to your home. Don't know what the point of that is, since it has the potential to be fairly dangerous. You can invite the gods when speaking to them, and it doesn't matter if you worship the god or not.

Is it at all possible to just keep going as a pure melee fighter with no pets?
I always read about how magic and pets are a must in late-game, but every time I try to grind my magic or get some pets it's always such a huge bother.
But now I'm starting to feel like I'm plateauing at around level 80 dungeons. There are some enemies that just kill me too easily or are too hard to kill.
Are there any things I might be missing to improve my melee style, or will I have to give in?
Is there any way to significantly boost my stamina? I feel like if I could throw shining waves around more liberally I'd have a much easier time.

>> No.12146900

>>12146879
Regeneration spell boosts stamina regeneration and so does kumi worship. You don't need grind much for basic buffing spells like hero\feather\holy shield. Being pure melee is probably possible but It will be certainly even more grindy then branching a bit into additional options.Don't you even use ranged? I can't imagine pure melee, without ways to cornershoot danger rooms must be hell.

I remember people saying it's best to keep your level low too. They mostly kept their levels low so they could avoid paying taxes and stat penalties when they died. I wouldn't recommend keeping your level low though. You will not be able to see most of the game if you stay low level and earning lots of money later on is easy. The stat loss isn't too much of a big deal later on as you'll be dying less and getting back any stat you lost.

I guess an alternative to magic is using rods, scrolls, and potions to heal and buff yourself but imo the earlier you pick up magic the better. At the very least use magic and train the buffs, heals, and teleport.

Is it just me, or does DV get less and less useful as you progress through the game?
Do Claymores even have anything going for them for the late-game?

They have the Absolute Piercing Attack chance. That's pretty something.

I don't know about you, but I have tons of DV and can dodge most high level monster about 4/5 times. Seems to me a lot better than tanking and healing constantly.

>> No.12147268

>>12147263

I can dodge most attacks too, but the problem is sometimes I've taken hits that have hurt me for pretty much half of my health. All it takes is a quick moment of bad luck with dodges and bam.

If you're at less than healthy HP, you really should just teleport away. Are you leveling Feather and Holy Shield? Those should compensate a lot for if you're lacking in PV or DV.

No, I'm not leveling spells at all, I've been playing a "pure" Claymore so far.

>> No.12147322

>>12147312
Speed, hero, attribution shield, holy shield, feather, holy light, regeneration, slow, mist of silence, mist of frailness, element scar, contingency. Add nightmare if you use those damage types. Add divine wisdom if you intent to use healing magic (you should) or attack magic. Suggested healing spell is cure of jua, or healing rain if you intend to have an assload of pets.

>> No.12147323

>>12147312
Holy Shield, Feather, Attribution Shield, Hero.

Contingency and Regeneration are nice secondary buffs.

Divine Wisdom you'll level subconsciously, since you'll need it when you're reading high level books. Cast it before you do.

Also, make sure to hotkey and use healing spells, for when you run out of potions or whatever means you use to heal.
