Things I Wish I Knew When I Was A Noob by Radlonghammer

Just to check. I shouldnt bother making the non plus version of the assassins armor correct? I was going to level my infernal plus armor. I have the big 4 capped. Confused on where to go next.

if you can't make the + armor of the assassin then y its better to get infernal+ up

bring your assassin to level 35 first so you can craft the + version

boss armors non plus are only a bit better than the big four, and a lot worse than the high story armor, like infernal or swamp shaman. So, unles you hit 43 or something near, dont focus too much on them.

Sorry my thread is all over the place but really need help--- Thanks!!!

So i bought some dark prince chests and I received the following armors....

Even though they are super rare it seems they arent better then just regular rare.

Do I just use them to fuse or what?

Embersteel
Monk's Vestments
Volcanic Mantle
Brawler's Armor
Glacier Armor
Lightning Lord
Monstrous Garb
Riverstone Mantle
Steam Wizards Robe



I also have

Atlean Avenger+ 1/50
Hydra Hunters Mail+ 1/50
(working on getting a + version of Living Flame and Crius) Unless I should do a different armor instead.
Slimebane Battlegear & Assassins Shroud - Non + which I realize now is a mistake, however should I still level them?

The big question I have is which armors do I level, I can work on being able to craft + versions of the Big 4, or do I focus on making my Battlegear/Shroud better, it looks like their stats are still vastly better then anything else I own.

Use the DPC rares to enhance, none of them are worth leveling.

As for slimebane and assassins normal, don't level them at all. Focus on the big4+ first. With the amount of gold you'll use to even level it to 60, you can max out all 4 of the big 4 already.

Wow thats some insane info , i am glad that some one takes this serious

[ilvtfu]

you will get lots,and i say lots, while farmimg for evil jewels. So much shards that you cant even think to craft all those armors. Actually i have some hundreds of stone shards that i got from cerberus and kraken, those seems to be the most commons.

This treath helped me so mutch in the beginning of the game THX

Thanks a lot for the guide, it is really great! I'm level 47, but still feel like a noob =). Since I JUST found this guide, I haven't been following it up until now. I have the following armors:

Brawlers Amor - 24/50
Wavecharmer's Mantle - 20/50
Spectral Captain's Uniform - 17/70
Torchflame Mantle - 17/50
Forgemaster's Garb- 14/50
Flamestorm Finery- 9/50
Atlantean Avenger Armor- 1/50
Living Flame Armor- 1/50
Wind Monarch's Robes- 1/50

Should I go back and level up the Big Four now, or just keep levelling what I have already?

Thanks!

Big 4, without a doubt. They will be useful on your 2nd/3rd knight for epic bosses for a LONG time.

[makelifesimple]

I realy appreciate the fast response! Thanks!

OMG wish I knew about this guide when I first started knd . Oh well it's never too late I guess haha.

Great thread, always love to re-read to make sure I am on the right path...

Have been playing for 5 weeks now and I am Lvl 97, but have only limited armors below:
1) the big 4+s maxed out
2) infernal+ @ lvl 20
3) just starting to get my dark prince+ @lvl 1

At a crossroad if I should level my infernal+ and dark prince+, or aim for an epic armor+.

Reading the thread, there seems opinions that it is harder to get to lvl 43 boss kills...but how much harder?
Do i stand a chance?
Anyone has a gauge on when someone is "ready" to gun for epics,in terms of lvl, armor, and friendly support fire?

I am thinking to buy some gems (375 gems) and try to get a nemesis armor for the next boss and start my gunning.
Or perhaps I should stick to levelling my infernal+ and dark prince+ first?

Any advice is deeply appreciated.
Better yet, if any of the big boys here can lend support to me (XBD YPF FXM), will be doubly grateful!

Level 90-100 should be about right to get your first boss level 43.
If the boss elements are decent, big four armors are just fine to use, provided you have enough friends with suitable armors. (the last day before the boss disappears you'll probably doing 4/3 or 3/4 formation, which uses up 2+2=4 friends per level...)
I myself am using Crius+/AA+/AA+ for this boss.
Being in a guild with its guild element bonuses (or even better the further bonusses from guild leadership positions) should also help a lot.

Only reason to stop enhancing/leveling an armor: if you've got a better armor to enhance crafting/ready.
Always keep working on more enhancement material unless you armory is full.
In other words: go for that epic boss, but keep enhancing the armors you've got at the same time. Boss fighting doesn't hamper your farming abilities except for maybe at Kingdom of Darkness (since you'll need your friends for the boss) and the timing on when to trigger the boss.
