Suggestion on what to do with my inner ability

Hello Basil Market,

So my situation is that I currently have 40.5k Honor Exp, of course I can get more, with Legendary Inner Ability with 10% Boss Damage in the third line.
My main goal is to achieve Weapon Speed +1, and I am sure most of you who have tried to achieve this know the struggles.
Now before one of you says, "Just go get a DSI glove" I will stop you right there and duct tape you down. I hate switching items for decent skills, otherwise I wouldn't be making this thread.
I know that you can have one 'Legendary' line of Inner Ability and that my 10% boss isn't that legendary line (since I think 18-20% boss in a single line would be a 'Legendary' line for Boss Damage)
Each Legendary Inner Ability reset costs 10.1k Honor Exp per attempt, and 13.1k Honor Exp if I lock the 10% boss line.
So I am wondering what the best option is to approach this situation towards achieving that Weapon Speed +1 line.

Yes, I know you can get the Weapon Speed +1 in any line. (No matter how many people feel that the first line is "luckier" when it's RNG'd)
Yes, I know you have to use a Green MPE potion to bypass the weapon speed from fast(2) -> fast(0) for a NL.

Thanks in advance!

[quote=RoyalSeat]looks like you spent quite alot of time researching on Maplestory, congrats[/quote]

Seeing as how I stated that someone already posted the video, that I linked in my comment, a few days ago on a similar thread it shouldn't even have been difficult or any effort at all.
Don't see why you got to be bitter when you got corrected.

I would keep the third line and reroll the others. It's so hard to get anything good on the 2nd and 3rd lines... from my experience.

[quote=SheepPB]Incorrect information. Please do some more research.

[url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTJhwpN3RDs]Around 24 seconds in.[/url] Just to let you know it can be any of the three lines. The person within the video actually posted this a few days ago in a thread where people believed it was impossible to get weapon speed +1 in any other line than the first line and believe the first line is some magical line that is the only line weapon speed +1 is bound by.[/quote]

The first line is special. It's always the tier listed on top. I'm not sure if this is because lines re-order themselves so that the highest is always on top, or if it's something else at work, but the first line generally has the highest tier stats.

Remember, several of us have used hundreds of resets at legendary and never gotten +1 att speed anywhere except the first line. It stands to reason that +1 att speed outside of the first line is either impossible with honor resets or extremely rare.

What is likely happening with the DrK is that he had +1 att speed pre-honor revamp, when we still had to use Azwan circs for IA. I've heard that lines acquired via Azwan circulators behave differently than honor lines.

[quote=RoyalSeat]i have rolled many times and have +1 attack speed on first line, [b]its not possible to get it in any other line.[/b] we can all dream though[/quote]

Incorrect information. Please do some more research.

[quote=Axnslicer]I'm actually pretty certain that only the first line is legendary tier? At least, when I was resetting my IA only the first line gave leg tier stats. My second and third lines have epic and rare stats.

I've heard numbers ranging from 100-300 resets to get +1 att speed IA. That's like a week or two of training at SH while picking up medals.[/quote]

@SheepPB: I have on my aran, it was quite pointless but it took 10 I believe. That character is long gone now, but much like cubes it's random. At least you won't spend days/months farming honor!

I'd keep rolling with 10k resets since we keep getting events with the medals that give 10k honor exp

@epikkhighh: If you have the range and can afford to give up stats for decent si on gloves you can do that too

[quote=Vicetone]You should still get si bc more dps i have just about every atk speed multiplier there is and each one really makes a different and if you want buff durations theres other ways you can get that too point is you shouldnt limit you're self[/quote]

i agree with the first part, needing decent and switching, but buff duration is limited to inner ability, character card and character trait. so the max you could have is 25% with only a card and trait, but not many people have level 100 empathy, even then level 70.

but of course in the end the decision is yours. i managed to get 250% boss without a boss inner ability, yet to have a boss neb for my dagger, only sub weapon. i would still take 10% additional buff duration over boss.

got my Attack Speed +1 with 800k honor exp after getting Legendary on inner ability if this helps (without mention 30k nx on circs and i got garbage)

It is highly unlikely that you will get +1atk without using a bunch of miracle circs (or without like 200k+ Honour exp for resets)

[quote=Vicetone]@SheepPB: took me about 20 although i know some people who used over 50 and others that are still counting[/quote]

Hmm... Thank you for the self experience though of yourself and others.

[quote=epikkhighh]20 is lucky.
anyways you need to have buff duration, to not switch equipments so much. decent co and decent si, etc all matters when you end game boss.[/quote]

The sheer fact of switching them is what I don't like. Decent co isn't really that important if you hit high enough. So no, I don't need buff duration.

and i would personally choose buff duration over boss damage, you can get boss damage on nebs, weapon,secondary, emblem. buff duration you cant

From my experience with IA, I would lock that boss damage third line because you're never going to see it again

@Tyrant @Vicetone
Have either of you ever obtained Weapon Speed +1 from cs circs, and if so how many did it take?

Just get cs circs

The third option is really the easiest and will yield the fastest results.
