Basically I am looking for input on how best to maximize bashing for gold, generally through artys.

I figured lvl 2 magic damage rune
Then life rune
Then crit rune

Not sure what level life or crit, and are crit worth it?

And no I dont mean switch guilds.


Not sure if I am missing anything else (like cube rune to make use of heal scroll?)

THanks!

One trick I use which is similar to the cube rune and healing scroll is that I have an artifact vial and a health keg. It makes it much simpler to bash when you get double the sips.

what is the cube rune and healing scroll?
Oh.. you mean for charges... thats brilliant, I need to do that.

Level 1 crit rune is not worth it, level 2 crit rune is worth it.
Same with life rune.

go level 3 if you can live with yourself after doing so

whats the point of bashing for gold when you could just sell the credits youd spend on the artis and make more gold then you ever would bashing for gold?

That works in the short run, but if the runes stay put and you do a ton of bashing, hopefully you'll surpass the amount the credits are worth... hopefully... with a lot of luck...

Actually, you never would.

The artifacts might increase your gold intake rate by maybe 20% (that is a high estimate)

I do this already

Glowing ruby vial. When it empties...

#echo %ansi(bold, red, cyan) ARTY HEALTH EMPTY
#echo %ansi(bold, red, cyan) ARTY HEALTH EMPTY
#echo %ansi(bold, red, cyan) ARTY HEALTH EMPTY
#var notice "ARTY HEALTH EMPTY"
#beep
#alarm +1 {#beep}
#alarm +2 {#beep}

when I refill the vial (also a trigger)
#var notice " "
#echo HEALTH REFILLED
#echo HEALTH REFILLED

It is VERy handy

Might be nice to rune keg we shall see.


Also I am going to earn my credits in game.. I have only been able to buy 200 credits with real money. They all went into Nihilism

So I will be bashing up the credits to bash better etc. My hope is to be able to reliably wipe things out.

And wait lvl 1 rune is 200 and 2%. But lvl 2 rune is better when its double the % but triple the cost?

With Kephera I think fully runed I could kill them with a hit less if I dont crity and hit less when I do crit. Life rune is to jump into groups of 6 as a Nihilist.


Maybe it would just be cheaper to go Ur'Guard, forge max speed weapons, then bash up life and waepon runes

I dunno anymore. Getting kinda tired of my aeon reliant class but we wont get into that.

Want to be a gold bashing monster with no worries on gold

Then just switch to monk

about the crit rune, I remember doing the math right when open beta ended.

From level 60 - 80 the level 2 crit rune was the best investment. (at the time I could not forsee myself getting past level 80 since I had never had a char that got past level 55 before now. and funny enough 3 years later, I still have gotten past 81)

Now now warriors are faster killers and can fight things that prone more.. and go go uber armor.

Not anymore!

warriors don't have any instant stand skills.

You do have a valid point.. monks arent as tanky.. but as a titan I dont think I need be as concerned :/

Just buy all three, and a RoA. Problem solved

Psh, credit whore.

And I have a RoA

OMG KHARVIK IS ALIVE

So, what'd you decide to do, out of curiosity?

I actually enjoy my crit rune more than I thought I would. It was difficult to spend 1200 credits on just a rune for critical hits, but it's a lot of fun to see them happening so much more now.

The life runes are great, too. I don't ever surge now unless I want to be really, really healthy.

Cube runes are great, but I got gypped out of 6 charges (only 999 per cube fill due to some odd rounding bug?) and was disappointed. It'll take me forever to use up all those charges, but I'm not likely to ever need enchantments again. Heh.

It looks like cubes can have a range of 1000-- from 0 to 999. Someone just didn't realize that a range of 1000, starting at 0, doesn't quite reach 1000 (or at least, that's how it looks).

Going to end up getting a damage rune first most likely, or the life rune. Crits not worth it

Dude you must not know anything about bashing if you say crit runes aren't worth it.

I have had Kharviks choker, it didnt really register as a notable difference as a titan, damage and life did though, plus I prefer PvP capable arties first.

Lvl 3 crit rune is very worth it. I had a level 1 and traded it in for a level 3, and it is much nicer.

Also, RoA is good for hunting.

Um, using arties to bash for gold...Dude, that's an oxymoron. You'll never make up the gold you spent on those arties.
