Sure she has her tongue poking out
I'm blaming Belle Delphine for that one :sweatsmile:

I can't shake the feeling I have played this game before. So much of it isn't so much learning as remembering... which is odd.
And yet other parts are mysteries I am still working out...
For instance, you can buy grey items on a store and without knowing how, I knew you would be able to convert them from grey to legendary items... i have worked that out now. You just take it to the blacksmith and he can add anything you want... for a price. Need mats for it as well, I had thought you needed to find the item and then break it down so he can learn... but no, he knows them all now.

The game lets you make the items exactly how you want... for a price. And it may take re rolls to get it exactly right

I thought game threw archers at you if you lacked health or armour... no, its just one of the groups you likely to meet. Same location could be full of skeletons or spiders next time, Some things more likely to show up if you lack dps.

After getting one bow to 100, game not really interested in me training more bows. Or maybe the one I got to 100 turns game into easy mode and rest don't. Last one I tried giant spiders started to trap me constantly. Not a problem with the lvl 100 bow, as it shoots things before I get to them.

I have every bow you can find, and one you have to buy in game. Some of them are mysteries to me, I only know of one other you can buy. One empty slot is a weapon you get for beating main boss.. I doubt I ever see it.

Her build is essentially press one button and move. She has 3 moves she could use but its actually her personality in game that makes her unhappy if she uses more than 1 move. Her performance in game suffers until she used the one attack several times in a row before she gets over it...
So her secondary attack is actually a minion - an auto firing arrow that wanders stage hitting things... and her other move is jumping attack I should use to escape trouble but there generally isn't anyway to escape to. Best answer is kill them before they kill you.

i was going to try a knight today, it didn't last long. I fiind him clunky and annying to play compared to other two.
So i started his quest and said stuff it, and logged out of game.
Log back in to find game had put me on my mage instead, since its her save file they are all playing on
Go to swap back to huntress and game put me on the knight instead? He was in town so I ran to where huntress is to swap characters and I got an error and game crashed.
Scared I had broken save I reloaded game and it seemed to fix it. Put me on huntress.

I really don't have bank space for more than two characters. Like Diablo 4 they share bank tabs,
unlike Diablo 4 you can buy new space in the bank but i am not made of money and restricting myself means I can't save everything. Just in case I play the knight and low lvl rings can help. Every character needs things like life on hit or mana on hit, just to survive.
the mage and Huntress are past that stage and will never return. I should have a fire sale tomorrow.

At least there is a separate stash for legendary items. Lets you collect them without wasting bank space.
Stats on legendaries are random, there are abilities that are set to them as well.
I didn't achieve anything today, just wasted time levelling up two bows. I should do the forge but I find it boring

I wanted to see what bonus would be on this bow

Not a lot of damage but lots of defences. I had that one on my mage already, I knew the bonus would grow

this one was just for fun, it does wreak havoc by causing explosions.

Guess I am running out of excuses and will have to do forge tomorrow. Shouldn't be so bad, she only has to play it at difficulty 3 and she been finding difficulty 6 expeditions boring recently. Went from trying to kill her (well, they still want to) to being easy., Could be as I made her harder to kill now or it could be I should be on difficulty 7

top 2 figures are raw damage and elemental damage, she doesn't have much use for magic but some bows use it to add damage.
next are health and mana. She doesn't need lots of mana, just a constant supply
19k is armour, 3.9 is elemental resistances, and last one is Evasion. Better to not be hit at all but you can't rely on it..

my dps is nothing compared to some people I watched online. 1 million dps... I don't even. I also don't know if some of the things may have been patched out in last 5 months.

She wants to get to 90 and try the temple keeper at 100 again. Have to make sure I can damage it and survive its attacks. Entire reason I made her was to beat him. Need to get to floor 150 to beat him again. The reward is meant to be good.

you can mark your equipment with the makers name... i didn't understand why until i learned it boosted the damage of the reapers made by them. So far all of mine are made by Astorias so I have marked a few legendaries I am wearing and it does help. Also boosts levelling time... I started using one of them this morning and in about 2 hours its already lvl 70 something. I was amazed... until i noticed I had a 44% boost.

Soon I will have to use bows by another maker but its just a coincidence that 4 of mine are from one maker so far.

So tonight
  • did a 30 level run on an expedition just to complete an achievement in game
  • got about 3 bows to Primordal state, currently doing another because it sounded interesting.
It is an added sting to any melee that try to hug me

She achieved her lifes goal tonight, beat temple keeper at lvl 100 of the slorm temple. If I ever get to floor 150 I have to try again.
Her dps is way higher than the Mage, which is wrong on many lvls.

Top left is raw damage, actual damage is different as its often multiplied on weapons and I saw over 1 million in the end expedition report card. I had to boost everything today as one creatures attack is the explode... and It is meant to kill those with not enough life. So I took the hint

She got this belt

But it doesn't work in town as one NPC who always tells me to go away, did so while I was invisible
Sure would help in some stages if I didn't have self firing arrows that alert enemies to my presence
Below is a combo of the belt and the bow

I have the ring and belt of the fisherman, they both add different effects to the goldfish bow so if I ever find the gloves as well, I will see what it all does. Guess that would mean levelling it up. I was ignoring it so far. Trying all the bows out.

Some weapons only work properly if you have the right character build to use them. The fire sword only works properly, for instance, if you have skills that use fire. I have all the elemental weapons but no point using them. Seems I do shadow damage if I chose the right skills.

I need to think to use the gold find bow, I always seem to be around same balance. Go up and spend the money I just collected. Maybe in a while.
