MABINATION SMALL QUESTIONS THREAD

  Can someone explain how Kunai Storm damage reforge works? Like how the 1% per level damage is applied.
  
  Also, since it doesn't seem like it from taking a look at the wiki, are any ninja reforges worth it? If so, which?

  [SIZE="2"]So about adventure seals. I have like 400 or so, but I want to start doing some dailies for more to get training seals. I know there are a ton of quests for them, but I'm lazy. Which ones do you guys do each day? Which ones are easy or quick to do? I don't want to do any of the grindy ones, but I'm down for giving a dude a shark every day.[/SIZE] ugh, so hard to post on my phone. Can someone fix this font size please?

  I'm pretty lazy, so I usually only do the two shadow mission dailies, but there are other ones that are easy like dungeon daily (assuming you get a short dungeon like alby), hillwen/shyllien crafting/hunting daily, commerce post daily (assuming you have spare ducats to throw around), that one daily where you turn in large nails to the man in Cobh, rafting/ballooning dailies, Lords/MA, Owen's Box or vegetable canape in Belvast

  Here's my daily routine:
  
  Start in Emain Macha:
  Puppet Shop > Cooking for Gordon > Commerce (I also do my Commerce Partner's daily quest, no adventurer seals from that though) > Kinu's Revenge (quest obtained the day before)
  
  Regardless of what the commerce daily is, I buy goods from Emain Macha and head towards Port Cobh:
  Nails for Madoc
  
  Then I use the moon gate to go to Belvast. I don't bother doing Manolin's Shark because I don't like spending time to fish for them. At Belvast:
  Give the ogre Vegetable Canape > Receive Kinu's Revenge quest again (to do tomorrow) > Give Hiko a Tomato Basil Salad (both food items made in bulk in advanced)
  
  Warp to Iria. I'm a human so my route begins at Qilla but you can obviously do this in any order:
  Alexina's daily quest (I usually use Awakening of Light, hop on my cloud, and ride it directly to the corn mark)
  
  I don't like doing the other Rano quests because it's too much running around and talking to random NPCs. Next, in Vales:
  Hillwen engineering > Hillwen hunting > Give the dog 5 white herbs (if I happen to have them)
  
  After Vales:
  Rafting daily (a little annoying to do during the dragon boat event because you have to wait until the very end to get off) > Kill 20 wandering ghosts by Metus
  
  Filia:
  Shyllien crafting > Shyllien hunting
  
  By this time I can usually warp back to Dunbarton. If it's a Shadow Mission that I can solo:
  Tara and Taillteann daily SM
  
  and if I'm not totally bored:
  Eaven's daily dungeon (I skip Peaca) > Gather 50 materials
  
  At max, that's 19 adventurer seals in one day. I also do any and all of these that I possibly can on my other characters, time permitting. Some days I do the Saga dailies as well if I like the particular episode.

  Just like other skill reforges, it's a flat additive bonus. Meaning that 20% damage increase is not very meaningful for a 500% damage skill since you'd only be getting 4% overall damage increase.
  
  As for your second question, let's go skill by skill. Shadow cloak? Escape button, doesn't need reforges.
  Kunai Storm damage we already concluded is not worth, but the attack range is something worth looking at. It is a big range increase, which turns to overall more damage covered per area. Do keep in mind though, I would rather have this on a shuriken than on gloves since there are just so many other options for gloves and not as much for shurikens.
  Shadow Bind duration is also not worth it because there are many mobs that won't get bound.
  Sakura Abyss is also a bit questionable, since it's a 5 minute cooldown skill since you're only getting 300 bonus to radius.
  Smokescreen is not worth it because the skill itself is bad right now.
  Shuriken Mastery Max increase is something worth looking at assuming we're going to get revamped Ninja, which will make the reforge give 3 max instead of 1. But my question is, even so, is it worth it sacrificing Kunai Storm attack range for it? I don't think so. Also worth noting, this reforge does not stack like Dual Gun Max damage does because it's a reforge that affects mastery. This has been tested on the KR server as well.
  Explosive Kunai: the only worth that I see is the debuff duration, since these mines are more useful for slowing enemies down than the damage (though if enemies step on all the mines, the potential damage is actually really high). But then again, this over Kunai Storm attack range or other good shoe reforges? Probably not.
  Shuriken Charge splash: hahahahaha
  
  Basically Kunai Storm attack range is the only one worth.

  Pretty much what I thought from seeing the wiki page. Thanks for confirming.
  
  Guess I'll leave my shuriken at r2 with its current Kunai range reforge and continue on with other gear.

  asking for field boss timers yet again...
  After maintenance, do field bosses spawn right away or does it wait for the predetermined amount of time before spawning?
  
  I'm looking for info on black golem and giant long horned gnus

  Adds points to the mana use reduction set effect. 10+ total points on and you get the effect, which is 10% reduced usage.

  any idea if it stacks with mana summoner (-3% mana consuption for 13% in total)?

  Doesn't work that way. Both are the same for the mana reduction set effect, same one that Karis pieces and Magic School pieces have.

  Does anyone know the recipe for Stitched Mask? It's a synthesis item supposedly, but isn't listed on the wiki. Thanks!
• Rydian wrote on 2016-06-08 09:09
  If it's not in the recipe list either we don't know it, or more likely it's not a thing in NA.
  
  Where did you see this info?
• Lukshad wrote on 2016-06-08 19:57
  Oh, not sure. A friend was asking around, so I told them I'd ask on nation.
