how are people dealing with mana issues for casters? my sorc spells cost ~200 mp and I only have 2k mana. There are no mana restoration MOs that work for spells!

Does A3 merc scale with +skills?

Died in the halls of anguish as I got stormed the moment I entered and the tantrumdin with 40k defense and 75-76% capped resists got demolished. Without the gear I get instantly killed by the mobs camping either the portal or the entrance. My only mobility skill is Appartition, which has a wonderful cd, preventing me to go futrher than a single jump, which is still within the mobs cluster.

Any ideas? Also I don't get what would it take for a char to be truly tanky. I haven't maxed damage reduc, but I don't see how it can make a all the difference. It's a matter of numbers here.

well idk if your online player, but if you play on realm and the game was open for like 5min +, you have enough time to leave the game and rejoin and the game wont be shut down and you get your body back, prolly do something else before and test if its long enough

1. points into energy, depending on what levle you already are it might be better to invest your skillpoints only into dex and energy because dex allows use of better staves and sorc armors which give damage and defense, some items with + mana and mana on kill (docs --> ctrl + f --> mana)
2. but the real way to deal with mana problems is, be efficient with the use, what skill is it you are talking about?

Lets talk assassin
Im thinking of doing a throwsin, but I don't have a clue whats considered the strongest throw skill atm. Wychwind seems to melt everything thus far but forces me into a slower playstyle. I'd like to focus a lot on broadside, but I think you can only get the timer to around 5sec?
Does the old way of going nagi + broadside on wep swap still work or is it even worth it? Going hybrid sounds interesting, but I'd be giving up on block which sucks a bit.

Is there is any way to add jewels to show when drop filter turned on?

Offline. I read the maximum bodies is 15 or 17, I would need the gear body specifically. At this point I'm just waiting for a solution here. Edit: fixed my hideous quotation

My concern was about the bodies I had, but took my chances and got my gear. Nvm. Thx for the online info btw.

@villur
I like stormcrow and occasionally maelstorm but it depends on the situation since SC is autoaiming skill and maelstorm can't pierce (like it used to) enemies.
Also there's no "best skill" for throwsin. And as u can see wychwind can melt everything but it's mostly used for bosses. The Bluesin (broadside+nagi on switch) is fun but really hard to play since she require better than average items (at least 2 good crafts: weap and/or gloves/boots) to efficient. Full throwsin is easier to play and when you have full tracker set u can do 90% of the uber in game.

I personally always liked maelstrom. Its range is simply insane. You can do ubers by killing enemies you don't even see! It's better to intentionally miss the target though, since the novas deal more damage than the explosion. And when the knive explodes it won't fly any further.

Wychwind is a great spell vs bosses. you only need a merc or a summon to immobilize the boss, so he won't walk away.

Storm crows... well back in 2008 it was an awesome spell. Since then it has been buffed since there are lots more knives now. you gotta test it out I can't say much about it.

Broadside is mainly used as a starter spell for proc feasts. Usually people cast it, then switch real fast to a nagi by pressing w. Then everything dies. Then you wait a bit and cast broadside again. At least that's the most effective way to make use of that spell.

anyone else get terrible rubber banding while trying to do juris khan?

Hey guys

Ive mostly played MXL Ult and im just ocming into the new MXL, what are the biggest changes that have happened between the 2 versions? Ive noticed that the level 0 challenge doesnt exist anymore and that i dont get a character orb anymore? also did runethrow weapons sell value get a nerf? gift box needs an item to open now and i feel that some of the small orb enhancement things have disappeared or had their value changed. Where can i find changes between this version and MXLU? TY.
