Por tip slotting gear

[kyoshox]

ok hear is some tips and tricks on sloting gear

when sloting gear u want to go with the most common artfact to the most rare

reason is if the common ones fail u can start over with new gear

example if u slot a snake skull and the rest fail then ur snake skull gear is no better then a 4 slot item with simular stats or better

arrow head are perfect to start ur set up here are some ideas on what to slot for combat and how to get that sexy damage

first u want to make sure all ur stats are around 7500 or more i perfer 15000 for higher chance

also u want to make sure ur gear has cloak and dagger for the highest chance on getting full combat gear.

etterfang is super rare but not as rare as snake skull and should be 2nd to last slotted

so

1 arrowhead /grimthron (its rare but u dont really need it )
2 grimthron / polish button
3 polish button/ flag strap/ etterfang / snakeskull
4 flagstrap / etterfang / snakeskull
5 snakeskull

perfect stats is polishbutton slagstrap etterfang snakeskull and if ur lucky with the slot bounse item from boston grimthron

45 common combat power + 20 percing power ( only for jacket shirt pants hat ) other sets of gear max is 4 with the bounse

cloak and dagger to low just think of it like this 40 blazers is like adding 16k to ur cloak and dagger depending on purity of iron u have the higher the better

now some people went full monk stats with the new copper button which adds crazy 50 to blunt power but it doesnt use cloak and dagger but mine and mountain is e z to get

50 blunt power just isnt worth it tho unless all ur gear is socket with it and a snakeskull then u will be doining a little bit more damage with fist then saber but still isnt worth the time and effort to socket all ur gear with copperbuttons

grimthorns are e z to find just like arrow heads and give simular stats so dont worry about the damage dif its not alot

finding etterfangs can be tricky and suck very bad lol but here are some tips

lifting logs will have a small chance on spawning snakes u have roughly 1min to try and attack it with ur saber before it attacks u sometimes if the snake fills trap it will argo faster if this happens get some distanc and time ur attack dont attack to soon or to late i would say practic on some rabbits bc they have the same attack speed. also if ur near water run to it snakes cant swim! odd i no but use stomp on the edge and kill it that way so u dont get poisoned.

also u would want to make a new char for snake farming i no its a pain but u only need around 15 blod and 15 yellow to 1 shot them and u dont have to worry about ur stats going down while farming. just wish they added a artfact that reduced the chance of getting posioned by 25% and if u have 4 of them slotted u wont get posioned and the artfact would most likly be the antidote which can be crafted or bought for 250s rip off lol

polish buttons and flagstraps are a kinda time depended

snake skulls how and what to do

all i can say about this one is make a snakeskull farm line up trees and wait for them to become stumps for best results make it a 20x20 giving u about 400 stumps to look at every 2-3days u can usually get around 0-6 a week if ur lucky. not to sure if it depends on the type of tree but am using the great oak tress the big ones so not to sure if that played any part into the chance

note: stumps dont reset unless u look into them also make sure u throw out the junk while passing them dont let them fill up

well thats all the tips i got for slotting hope that help some of u out

i'm sorry, but I just stopped reading after 5 spelling mistakes in the first three sentences. If you want people to actually read your guide, you may want to give a bit more attention to your english

I read the whole thing and thought it was a good post despite the stream of consciousness approach to Pro Tipping

For the hell of it, I cleaned it up a bit.

PRO TIP: Slotting Gear
postby kyoshox » Mon Jun 10, 2013 3:15 pm

Ok, here are some tips and tricks on slotting gear.

When slotting gear you want to start with the most common artifact to the most rare. The reason is if the common ones fail, you can start over with new gear.

Example: If u slot a snake skull and the rest fail then your snake skull gear is no better then a 4 slot item with similar stats or better.

Arrow heads are perfect to start your set up. Here are some ideas on what to slot for combat and how to get that sexy damage:

- First, you want to make sure all your stats are around 7500 or more i prefer 15000 for higher chance.
- Also, you want to make sure your gear has cloak and dagger for the highest chance on getting full combat gear.
- Etterfang is super rare but not as rare as snake skull and should be 2nd to last slotted

In order, here is a suggested list of items to use:

1. Arrowhead /Grimthorn (its rare but you don't really need it)
2. Grimthorn / Polished Button
3. Polished Button/ Flag Strap/ Etterfang / Snake Skull
4. Flag Strap / Etterfang / Snake Skull
5. Snake Skull

Perfect stats is polished button, flag strap, etterfang, snake skull. If your lucky with the slot bonus item from boston, add a grimthorn.
45 common combat power + 20 piercing power (only for jacket, shirt, pants, hat). Other sets of gear max is 4 with the bonus.

Cloak and dagger too low? Just think of it like this: 40 blazers is like adding 16k to your cloak and dagger depending on purity of iron you have. The higher the better.

Some people want full monk stats with the new copper button, which adds crazy 50 to blunt power. It uses mines and mountains, which is easy to get. 50 blunt power just isn't worth it though unless all your gear is socketed with it and a snake skull. Then you will be doing a little bit more damage with fist than saber, but it still isn't worth the time and effort to socket all your gear with copper buttons.

Grimthorns are easy to find, just like arrow heads, and give similar stats so don't worry about the damage. The difference is not much.

Finding etterfangs can be tricky and suck very bad, but here are some tips:

- Lifting logs will have a small chance on spawning snakes. You have roughly 1 minute to try and attack it with your saber before it attacks you. Sometimes, if the snake feels trapped, it will agro faster. If this happens get some distance and time your attack. Don't attack too soon or too late! I would say practice on some rabbits because they have the same attack speed. Also, if you're near water run to it. Snakes can't swim! Odd, I know, but use stomp on the edge and kill it that way so you don't get poisoned.

- You might want to make a new char for snake farming. I know it's a pain but you only need around 15 blood and 15 yellow bile to 1 shot them and you don't have to worry about your stats going down while farming. I just wish they would add an artifact that reduces the chance of getting poisoned by 25%, and if you have 4 of them slotted you won't get poisoned. The artifact would most likely be the antidote which can be crafted or bought for 250s (rip off lol)

Polished buttons and flag straps are a kinda time dependent.

Snake skulls - How and What To Do:

All I can say about this one is make a snake skull farm by lining up trees and waiting for them to become stumps. For best results, make it a 20x20 area giving you about 400 stumps to look at every 2-3days. You can usually get around 0-6 a week if you're lucky. I am not to sure if it depends on the type of tree, but I am using the great oak trees. I am not to sure if that plays any part into the chance). -

Note: Stumps don't reset unless you look into them. Make sure you throw out the junk while passing them. Don't let them fill up!

Well, those are all the tips I have for slotting. I hope that helps some of you out.

thanks

I don't see why anyone would want to slot grimthorns or arrowheads.

I miss embroidery in your list.
After polished button - etterfang - flagstrap - embroidery - snakeskull, I'd rather slot a buckskin inlays, or abandoned cobweb than a grimthorn or an arrowhead. Or rainbow scales, but those are so hard to slot.

[kyoshox]

ah it was for more damage usually when ur above 80 blood wildlife cant really kill u so u try to go for the 1 hit

[martinuzz]

I guess if you're going for *only* damage while hunting animals, and don't intend it for PvP, yeah, I get your idea.
Personally, I'd still rather have some defense arefacts for them pelter sticks, than the very small combat bonus from arrowhead / grimthorn
