General

Am I going in the right direction? o.O

Hi, so atm I got 140k range unbuffed, i'm level 203 NL, my gear is the following:
Fafnir claw - waiting till next fever so I can perfect scroll it with 15's, atm it is scrolled with 70's, it has unique pot - 9% att 9% luk 6%max mp, so I am also waiting for miracle time to cube.
Assassin Hood - Also waiting till next fever perfect with 30's.
eagle shirt - waiting for next fever to perfect
pants - waiting till next fever to perfect.
Emblem - the level 100 explorer emblem, it's unique and has 30% ignore def and other lines are bad.
boots- just random boots till I get enough coins for the tyrant ones.
earrings- saving coins for sup gollux.
pendant- sup gollux all scrolls worked 12stars.
tyrant cape- 8stars , used 2-30% luk scrolls on it, both worked.
gloves- 22att DI gloves, I also got 23attack ones that I used 30's to get, next fever gonna to get 2 failed slots back and perfect it.
Belt - perfect scrolled 12star sup gollux belt, gonna switch it after I get the tyrant belt (gonna get the boots first cause my boots atm are bad)
face- smiling mask, waiting till miracle to cube it, not sure if I should cube it or just wait till I get sw? sometimes when guildies get cubes from bosses I give them to cube my mask cause it's my only tradeable equip.
Secondary- I think it's 9% 6% luk, also waiting for miracle.

Basically I do boss runs everyday, I get carried hmag every week twice and hardlux/hellux everyday, usually hard if no one can carry me hell.
I was just wondering if I need to do any more preparing for fever besides buying a lot of innos and css10, or maybe I should change my plan a bit? atm I got 3b mesos on me and I thought to use those for the css and innos, but I will probably need more, and also to star enhance.

Was also wondering if the 8star tyrant is good enough for now or I should try to get it better?

Thanks in advance!

[quote=belzier]Given the way your post was going, I'm surprised you didn't suggest him to take a healthy does of crylenol instead.

Why not take this as an opportunity to link that equipment guide you've been working on? 8D

To the OP: You've got the right idea. Potentials provide the biggest damage boost next to your weapon att, so continue to work on scrolling and cubing your gollux gear.[/quote]
So basically just gotta spend that sweet $$$

[quote=ashleyattacked]I'm not sure you understand...fevers are a bad thing. It's a sign that your body is fighting an illness...which could potentially kill you.

Personally, next fever I think you should take a tylenol and go to bed.[/quote]

I still don't quite understand what I do, from what I think I just need to wait and keep doing hmag and gollux till I get entire equips, and wait for miracle?
Can I summon your opinion? @wall

@newgodiydit: If they're already 70%, it'd be better to divert your efforts elsewhere. 30% and 70% yield roughly the same stats on average, if you get an above average run, that's good for you, but only by a difference of a few base stats. For example, instead of passing 7/7 70% scrolls (which will give +28 stat), you pass 5/7 30% scrolls (which will give 35 stat). The amount of tries you need to get 5/7 successes or better (inc. 6 and 7) is 4.75 (or roughly 5). You will be going through on average 5 equips to get an extra 7 stats, which for tops, the cheapest CRA equip, is 50m + traces. More expensive equips, like pants, will cost over 100m + traces.

Fafnir claw - waiting till next fever so I can perfect scroll it with 15's, atm it is scrolled with 70's, it has unique pot - 9% att 9% luk 6%max mp, so I am also waiting for miracle time to cube.
[i]Don't bother doing that, get a new (unique) claw and start from there. The cost of innoing the fafnir you have already will already take a large chunk of your meso and you're going to be cubing over it, so any unique claw will do. Do wait for miracle time, however, if you want, you can use RP cubes once a month to try and tier legendary.[/i]

Assassin Hood - Also waiting till next fever perfect with 30's.
[i]Again, don't bother perfecting 30%s. If you're underfunded, its more important to pass 70%s (gives more stats for the success rate, considering fever time), and by the time you can afford to CSS your slots back, you may as well be using prime scrolls. Perfecting with 30% is just not worth it considering the cost of CSS or guardians. Optionally, you can get a clean assassin hood, 30% those (and fuse the failures to get a new hood) until you're satisfied; if you're good at math, you can calculate the expected costs, otherwise I can do it for you later (ceebs atm).[/i]

eagle shirt - waiting for next fever to perfect
pants - waiting till next fever to perfect.
[i]Use 70% traces. If they're clean junk pot, then that'll be your best bet. If they're epic, you might need to do something else.[/i]

Emblem - the level 100 explorer emblem, it's unique and has 30% boss and other lines are bad.
[i]Emblems can't get boss%. You want either attack or %def ignore, depending on how much of each you have right now. Explorer emblems are 3rd tier, so you can go for either; other ones are 2nd tier so def ignore is better. For most bosses, %att is better (especially the lower level ones), but for endgame bosses, you also need a large amount of def ignore. Because its endgame, you shouldn't be worried about it right now.[/i]

boots- just random boots till I get enough coins for the tyrant ones.
[i]Get Nova boots from Normal Magnus drops, enhance those to 4-5 stars (or more if you have spares). They should tide you well until Tyrant.[/i]

earrings- saving coins for sup gollux.
[i]Good choice would also be reinforced gollux, because superior equips are a lot costlier. Reinforced equips have almost the same stats (slightly less) but are a lot more affordable for most players. In the end, its up to you. Even though you have superior pendant already, you can still use the reinforced set through double pendant, and you can refresh once a month using 3.2k RP.[/i]

pendant- sup gollux all scrolls worked 12stars.
[i]Very lucky.
Epot it, stamp it, cube for luk%. Use free cube drops and RP cubes.[/i]

tyrant cape- 8stars , used 2-30% luk scrolls on it, both worked.
[i]Ideally, you want to epot, stamp and cube for luk%. Its not as important as the pendant, however, because you can cube for more classes with the pendant, as opposed to only luk on the cape.[/i]

gloves- 22att DI gloves, I also got 23attack ones that I used 30's to get, next fever gonna to get 2 failed slots back and perfect it.
[i]Not worth the CSS. to get 2 failed slots back, that's 600m (average) at 30m per CSS. 600m is already 1/5 the cost of Tyrant gloves. For gloves, you can also enhance past 5 stars for bonus att, and slate afterwards if you really want to[/i]

Belt - perfect scrolled 12star sup gollux belt, gonna switch it after I get the tyrant belt (gonna get the boots first cause my boots atm are bad)
[i]Keep it for now. Tyrant belts are only better after you pass more than 6 stars, and you want the set effect anyway until you can get a second pendant slot.[/i]

face- smiling mask, waiting till miracle to cube it, not sure if I should cube it or just wait till I get sw? sometimes when guildies get cubes from bosses I give them to cube my mask cause it's my only tradeable equip.
[i]That's a level 25 mask. An epic sweetie would be better, the only problem is that it's untradeable after equipping. Seriously, make the swap now and cube the SW; it'll be a lot more cube efficient[/i]

Secondary- I think it's 9% 6% luk, also waiting for miracle.
[i]Yes. Make sure you get weapon lines on it when you're done. [/i]

Basically I do boss runs everyday, I get carried hmag every week twice and hardlux/hellux everyday, usually hard if no one can carry me hell.
[i]If your friends don't mind, loot the cubes from the boss runs, epot things and cube for luk%. I personally recommend you use a drop rate familiar and go Commerci also (denaros and cubes). [/i]

I was just wondering if I need to do any more preparing for fever besides buying a lot of innos and css10, or maybe I should change my plan a bit?
[i]Don't. Do not buy CSS10%s for fever time UNLESS you can afford to perfect a weapon. Other equips are fine with just 30% or 70%, doesn't matter if you fail a few. 300m per slot on average to slate, you're going to be getting 7 base luk tops from passing another 30%. Simply not worth it. [/i]

Note: For common equips (like Gollux), you do NOT equip them until both scrolling and potential are satisfactory. The reason is you can trade between characters to use untradeable scrolls (e.g. Advanced Gollux scrolls) and you can trade for similar % if you cube something good on it. Right now, if you cube 15% int or something on your gollux pendant, you can't trade for luk% without a PSoK, and it'll be less desirable to any potential buyers.

For miracle time, you ONLY want tierups. Once an equip turns legendary, stop; you're done. Don't waste cubes on legendary gear during miracle time because it only gives bonus tierup chances.
My overall summary is you know where to go for most things, but you're not doing it the most cost effective way. Also, when cubing, make sure that you cube things you can trade first and things you're using after. The reason is if you're more likely to get a really good stat on a common equip just because there are 4 times more stats which are good. Be happy with 6% luk on most of your CRA and untradeables first, then use your free cubes on trying to tier one equip at a time to unique 9-15% luk.[/quote]

I already had them scrolled with 70 and it's temporary so isn't it better to go with 30 if I can get 5-6 scrolls to work?

To answer your title question. I believe you are going in the right direction. You know what the correct items are, and you know the correct order in which to get them.

My bad, I meant to write 30% ignore def, sorry.

[quote=kinsok]
perfect and cube the cra, and forget the sup belt since your jsut going to replace it, it is a waste focus the effort on 2 superior pendants if that s the route you are going, gloves should be fine tbh, after that i would focus on tyrant boots and mainly cubing your secondary and finishing your weapon, no point in perfecting a gear you are gonmna replace so I would just say bye bye to the superior belt[/quote]
well tbh I just let someone from my guild with some adv gollux scroll to scroll it and they all worked.
