Evie: The Battle Scythe

  Just making sure, mark of death's affecting all smashes includes members of your party or does it affect only your own smashes on that enemy. If it does go to the party do multiple Evie death marks stack or does only the highest level mark work?

  Right, well... my test results were pretty inconsistent. From my results it seemed like I got 1/14th more damage instead of 1/10th more damage, which is quite a bit less than it should be, so I can only assume that it was just randomly different.
  
  But, since the change wasn't at least 10% then I'll have to assume that Mark does not add additional smash damage while it's in effect and that my initial thoughts that it just increases the damage of LLLR itself are probably correct.

  I had on Blood Prince gloves/boots. But uh... for looks. If you want some kind of explanation that makes it sound like I'm not just a perv then: When you enter battles and when your gear gets damaged it lowers the item's condition. x/y. When x gets to 0 you will be forced to repair the item at Ferghus, which will then raise x to y values. Doing so will increase Deterioration every time. Deterioration then increases the costs of future repairs (and possibly the rate at which things break). Deterioration can be reset to 0 by enhancing an item, but if playing somewhere that doesn't require armor, it would be more intelligent to just not condition your armor and go nude, that way you can go longer without having to repair/add deterioration. Especially considering you can only go to +5 at the moment and some armors may already be +3 or +4.
  
  Anywhooooo... I updated the Battle Scythe: Mark of Death description.

  You're a perv, just admit it.
  You don't lose Condition doing runs on Boat 1

  Just as a heads up to people you should also add revive to the non priority list. Not everyone knows that Evies can resurrect with any weapon.
  Also as a tip, the first ressurect used in a run should be the skill version so the cooldown doesn't end with people with 0 feathers and 2 minutes on the clock to re res.

  i personally think u dont need that many blinks... i hardly use blink, except from some bosses, doing a little run is more stamina wise... well people plays at different style though~
• TA wrote on 2010-11-11 08:42
  Try soloing something like the red tyrant without it... @_@
• ionexx wrote on 2010-11-11 11:17
  no can do , lol, i didnt said we dont need blink on every bosses, just blink is crucial for some bosses, and not really needed as it is stamina consuming in some bosses
  
  ie:
  on red tyrant , without blink u're doomed as evie scyhthe
  on reaper and BP, blink could saves our live many, many times
  
  as for bosses like
  ashen, red bearer, and (i think) gnoll chieftain, a back / side step is more than enough
  
  but still, blink is awesome:XD:

  I find blink is just safer to use instead of running.

  Hmm, never mind, looks like my post is not relevent any longer :)

  I despise Reviviving over feathering. It means I'm more likely to get killed again since I now have to use 3 pots instead of 1 to get to a safer HP level. No one ranks Revive anyway, so it's just a worthless skill at this point. It's slower than Feather, uses up a ton of stamina, and requires rank 6 to even give you the same HP level as a feather. There's really no upside to using it at this moment other than "If you're out of feathers, you have something to fall back on."
  
  That's all I see it as: a very last resort.
