Nervey: respawn rate is definitely TOO SLOW. Took 15min.

Slasher: the frozen spell is waaaay too often

got this from the first slasher:
Lavaliere (necklace)
Kinetic Eater 20%
DCI 10%
LMC 10%
LRC 20%
Physical resist 15%

yay

Not garg only. My human warrior can wear it!

BTW, there should be a respawn timer for the slahser. Insta respawn is not legal after you've just won a hard battle!

Edit: I've just tried killing something while wearing the necklace, and I get this message "Some of the damage you received has been converted to heal you"

I'd trade a crimmy for a tangle in a heartbeat, as far as my mages are concerned. Night eyes are going to make it possible to build a decent dci mage suit without inquisitor's resolution. Lavaliere is an awesome replacement for pendant of the magi. Best of all, I don't have to use a gargoyle to take advantage of them.

Simply beautiful.

Kenetic is Physical, So when you get slapped for, lets say 40 damage, within a second or two, you will be healed back 20% of the Physical damage you took. (8 damage)

When no one wants to hunt Navrey: instant respawn.
Now everyone wants to hunt Navrey: 20 mins wait.

All the Navreys I've done yesterday (15ish) and today (6) have had 20 minute timers. I did two Slashers yesterday, I think the respawn was instant but it takes so long you usually need a break by the time you've done one.

The pattern so far is that almost all of them are oriented towards mages, with an eye toward neutralizing the Hit Lower Defense property in PvP by piling on Defense Chance Increase to the point where all you can do is "lower" it to the maximum of 45.

My prediction for Mangler is that it'll be Spell Channeling, without a penalty or even with FC 1, Mage Weapon - 0, with DCI. Made to be used with either the Arcane Shield, or with one of those unintended-but-seemingly-legal Imbued FC 1 SC shields.

This post may be read as a complaint, but I genuinely don't mean it that way. I am just observing, and am starting to think about how to alter my equipment setup somewhat.

Starting to think I'd be better off soloing Medusa than waiting 20 minutes for Navrey to be ganked in 2 minutes by 20 people.

A few questions about Kinetic Eater...

1) Are we sure it's simply Physical Damage? Kinectic Resonance on the Gargoyle weapon seems to only apply to Ranged Attacks (Archery / Throwing) so just confirming that EATER is different.

2) Does the Kinectic Eater work 100% of the time with the 20% being "How much" ?? aka.. hit for 40 and 8 points is healed?

3) When your hit for dmg do you take the FULL dmg 1st & then get healed? Ex... Do I get hit for 40 & then healed for 8 ?? (much later?) or Do I get hit for 32 and simply get a message that some of the dmg has been converted?

4) How does Armor ignore work with this property (I assume since it's not physical it doesn't do less dmg but just wanted to check..)

5) Hmm.. Is Bombard effected since it's physical dmg? (or a ranged attack dependign on how Kinectic EATER works)

Was under the impression that "kinetic" refers to fighter attacks as opposed to spells.

Someone will need to test to confirm this.

Unsure whether I'll use Tangle or Crimson Cincture on my mage now... :/


I still have to get Tangle but still, might as well think about it now.

Think of it this way--replace totem of void with the new talisman, replace crimmy with tangle. work in 8lmc on suit somewhere----u just bought yourself 15 dci, 2 mr, and 10int, for the price of 2hpr

2hpr and 10 HPI
The loss of 10 hp (or 20 strength, as that is what it amounts to) is a total deal breaker. I stand right now (as a human) with 13 MR and 145 mana points before holding a spellbook, weapon, or shield. I can't even imagine losing it, and I can't see the extra 10 int and 2 MR being better... though if it works for others, great.

2 LMC actually.

Totem has 10 LMC 2 HPR
Crimson Cincture has 5 dex 10 HPI 2 HPR

Tangle has 10 int 5 DCI 2 MR
Slither has 10 DCI 10 HPI and 2 HPR

If I use the two new items instead of the old ones, I lose 10 LMC, 5 dex, 2 HPR, but I gain 15 DCI, 10 int, and 2 MR.

So add 8 LMC elsewhere on suit and I lose 2 LMC, 5 dex and 2 HPR.

I found some gargish armour on the corpse of Navrey called "Giant Steps". Is that a new item?

Do any of these drop off of Medusa?
I think all of them do. The patch notes listed that the following items will now drop off Navrey, Stygian Dragon, Slasher and Medusa, then listed all of them. At least some of them will drop from Medusa.

Someone got a ring called "Burning Amber" of the Stygian Dragon on LS. It's on a vendor if anyone wants to see it. But it doesnt say "Artifact" on its title. It's blaze color with: MR2, 20 Fire, FCR3, +5 Dex.

Anyone know if anything drops off Niporailem in the Tomb of Kings? He's still a mini-boss just like Navrey.

Just out of curiosity, I soloed him one time on Origin while Publish 64 was still just on Origin. He still spawned the same old supporting cast of characters and gave the usual crummy loot and of course no arti. As has been the case since SA was officially released, he really isn't worth the time and pet deaths involved in taking him down solo using a tamer without maxed out MR and LMC. The pet really can't move once it's surrounded by the spawn and, I suspect, weighted down with wacky gold and treasure sand. If his loot would have stayed the way it was during beta, he'd probably be heavily camped at this point.

Maybe some people on busy shards who don't want to fight the crowds elsewhere should give him a try and see if he does drop artis and was just left out of the publish notes.

Looks useless.

No mention of it in the patch notes either.

Wait... are these Fireball and Lightning traps in the Tomb of Kings hallway to Niporailem new?

Never seen them before.
