Some close battles where my brave shield basher followed the old saying: run away to fight another day.... The scorpion boss was too hard. So doing some leveling first to maximize spell resistance. Finished the scorpion and the crystal, now approching great machine in niob at level 113. Still fighting unarmed and not using x% life leech. Funny character, it is one which gets better and better the higher in level. Not like these inquisutor mages who do hard at high levels. Just started to put points in toughness and only a single point in shield lore to boost the Kira shield to 75% blockchance versus melee and ranged. A single point into combat reflexes, ... so a lot of points to be spend in defensive skills to free sockets for offense. 200 runes read into both buffs, into hard hit, into the temporary buff, ... Just need enough reg per hit to fight the 11s regeneration time. But 5.5s is enough because of the double hits. 2s are in the set gloves so just 3 garnets wit reg per hit in sockets.

I think the english wiki uses breaking points because of values like: 149 skill is 61.9% 150 skill is 61.9% too Some people think that the point at 150 would be wasted. I think the game uses more digits intern and just rounds for display. If the others are right: breaking points, magische Zahlen If I am right Tabellenwerte

Some I don't see breakpoints on the concentration page. A mark at program code to force a stop: break point - Haltemarke A point at which a curve gets more flat like the experience curve at 125/150/175: breaking-point = Knickpunkt. At modifying points: 9 for one full CA modified,...27? for 2, I would choose magic numbers- magische Zahlen Oops, I searched in the text and not in the headlines: Try Tabellenwerte

Jägermeister, all these parties and people bring bottle of Jägermeister. No blood alcohol allowed at work, so best is to bake a cake with it and eat a slice at evening. http://www.chefkoch.de/rezepte/22861005729114/Jaegermeisterkuchen.html Our second daughter looses 4 hours a day at public transport to school. When kids at town are done with homework she isn't even at home.

The page has some other nice programs too: Autoruns Regmon Portmon ProcessMonitor ...

I really like it. You have to do some registry editing before it pops up at ctrl-alt-del. It saves time when I have to kill a program and want to search for the reason. It gives some more informations than just the taskmanager. And I can do some bug search before the process is killed -something like looking which registry keys are opened, which DLL's are started by the program, who is the owner, ... But even if you want to avoid registry editing, the tool is really nice. Probably best to start it manually first and once knowing and trusting in it, do the registry edit for replacing. I was using the wininternals(now sysinternals) tools already when I had Windows NT. And there is a helpfile in html format to learn what it can. The wininternal people did some good WindowsNT interna books, did some tools to detect root kits, and then were hired by Microsoft. Then the name changed to sysinternals and the tools went to the Microsoft technet page.

Did you know that you can change the program which pops up when pressing ctrl-alt-del? if yes, which program are you using? I prefer the Process Explorer from sysinternals for years now. http://technet.microsoft.com/de-de/sysinternals/bb896653

Following my daughter: Colossus is the easiest. She killed him in niob by just staying around and healing herself. Rest was done by light aura of her seraphim. Think it is the only main boss that can be killed by buffs alone?

The formula for resistances affecting damage received is in the damage wiki. However the formula there is only for I guess silver. At higher difficulties the damage done by a monster is the damage shown in last kill tooltipp multiplied by a difficulty multiplier. The received damage is again multiplied by this multiplier ? This has to be verified. I did started the maths when my daughter was in hospital and I think I never really finished them. http://www.sacredwiki.org/index.php/Sacred_2:Damage As you can see the graph is still in german, so I think I never really finished it? The graph shows how much damage you receive from a wolf in niob whose last kill window shows 224 damage. The damage recieved at no armour is 744. Obviously it is good to stay away from the y-axis to prevent high peak damages. So best is do cover all damage types at least a bit. Also not really in the damage wiki: life leech attacks DoT attacks

Found the graph: Now ineed to find the thread. Graph was from fighting a niob wolf and changing th armour values. The interedting part is, that having too low armour multiplies the damage shown in he last kill tooltip. This graph made me putting an artamark star amulet in a socket all the time, just to prevent to be close to 0 armour in a damage type and receive damage multiplication. Why do use an artamark http://darkmatters.org/forums/index.php?/topic/14765-lady-in-black-the-unknown-member-of-mib/&do=findComment&comment=6885421 Another graph, in photobucket/sacredwiki http://s241.photobucket.com/user/SacredWiki/media/Builds/attachment.png.html Seems I have too big fingers for this small touchscren, lot of typos.

I can barely remember doing a graph how damage is lowered by armour. Did it made it ever into wiki or is it hidden in a thread I cannot remember at the moment?

Seems health insurance is different here. A high-tec bandage allows to walk and work earlier so most docs do an recipe for one. For days away from work you need a paper from a doc too. So normally people I know (mainly soccer players) visit a doc for the paper and a bandage.

My daughter fights only the colossus. She is such a weird build that she can't do others . Shouldn't the Wiki list the race/type of a boss? Would be useful for shrink head hunting and the seraphim and highelf with her auras against undead and t-mutants.

Three years back I used to have a memory stick on my keyring and then my wife asked if she could use my car for a medical meeting for a week in switzerland. And I said yes and forgot the usb-stick.... And it wasn't just a memory stick. It had a full bootable linux on it with all the programs I needed. I could stick it in any computer to boot with it and have my own programs. Computer at work, notebook, computer of my wife, at my parents,.. I had a copy, but I idiotical put the operating system on th biggest possible memorystick I could order. No local store had one. So I had a copy on harddisc put nothing to copy it on

It was quite common here. At marriages each guest started a balloon. Written on it were gifts the senders would do if the card was send back. I remember a boy who wrote: if this card will be send back I promise that I will babysit 5 times at the first kid of my older sister. Or the best girl friend of a bride: I will care for the dog when you do a journey. Something like gift coupons. http://www.ballonversand.ch/ballon_sets_ballonwettbewerb_just_married,pid,810,rid,37,produktdetail.html Winning a balloon race is tricky. Best do just as much helium in that the balloon climbs slowly. Then wait till late afternoon. At a sunny day a ballon may heat up, gets bigger=lighter , climbs even higher. Less pressure in the air and it explodes. So a slow climbing balloon which travels at night is best.

Westwind and sunny. There was something red in the top of one of my pear trees two days ago. Using a pole I removed it and it was a deflated balloon from a balloon release/race. Sender was a 8 year old girl from Belgium. Our third is close to same age so I said her to answer. My sister got a life long pen friend by answering a balloon car. Balloon races get rare. Environment problems because of the not rotting hull. When I was young I found like 40 cards a summer in our trees.

Delta: I hope you didn't imitate Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon to impress the girls. Thete is a german saying: Wer den Schaden hat braucht fuer den Spott nicht zu sorgen. Who has the damage/loss/injury doesn't need to wait for the laughing. I had a dislcated shoulder at army. Was fixed right away at the training field by a first aid soldier with lots of experience. 3 weeks special training and exercises. But the longer and the more often it is dislcated the longer it takes. 4 is a lot, guess you need professional help with exercises to find out which you need and to learn how far you can go without dislocating again.

I dislike painkillers in this case. Pain is an indicator when you do wrong moves. My health insurance paid special bandages. Their reason was it is cheaper to pay for them than 1 day longer away from work. Just ask the doc. I lack the english words: http://www.sportmed24.de/images/produkte/550/M120_122_Mikros_Fussbandage.jpg They prevented wrong moves and icould do sports again after 3 weeks while wearing them.

Think I had that 8-9 times. Being goalie at soccer and being underrun when jumping for a ball. Recovery is faster with some training tools. I used a Kippbrett when sitting at Computer to train the ankle. It is a board with a halfcircle pole attached. http://www.bruegger.ch/g_shop_ch/images/product_images/info_images/kippbrett_kompl.jpg

Yesterday evening family was harvesting elderberries and I showed how to create flutes from elderberry branches. Also piping on gras blades to imitate young does, ... Funny and strange concert

Dual wield for 2 nlovae (late game +ca range) exalted warrior for some extra defense and a better hit chance as long the pillars can't be spammed and have to be regenerated with weapon hits and reg per hit. (9 points just for the buff early on) obviously: celestial focus and lore, combat discipline, ancient magic armour lore, spell resistance, toughness, constitution The order in which the skills are taken depends on the common chest and the personal playstyle. I would do the weapon buff first. A combination of healing and pillar, regenerated with reg per hit should be quite save once modified. It will be real nice once 100% chance fir half regeneration time and all +ca-range stuff is found. +80% ca-range is possible with CM-patch, subtract 25% for the x-box because the sigil set is not there.

When I was a soccer trainer of the local girls team my wife gave me a list of what to do if one of the kids would have a similiar injury: Check at hospital right away: One reason is insurance as a trainer, not valid in your case. The other is that x-ray, CT, MRT, ... all have better results as long as there is no swelling yet Treatment: The german classic if no tendons are affected: Quarkwickel. Smear a real thick layer of cool quark (sort of soft cheese) on the ankle and then wrap an elastic bandage around. Quark is cooling better than an ice pack and it has some not fully researched properties to stop infections. What is Quark: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quark_%28cheese%29 From this Wiki: In Switzerland, quark is recommended by some physiotherapists as an alternative to ice for treatment of swelling associated with sprains, etc. It can be cooled in a refrigerator and then applied to swollen tissues (enclosed in a plastic bag). The advantages over ice are that it doesn't get so cold, reducing risk of damage to treated tissue, but stays cooler longer. The plastic bag is insurance stuff, if there are open wounds. It has a better effect if a bandage made of linnen or similiar sucks up the moisture and cools like a candle effect. Also the bandage fixes the ankle a bit already. If there are no open wounds Quark is also used at sunburns, insect stings, high fever, .... So always have some Quark in the fridge. If it is not used for first aid you can use it for one of the famous german cheese-cakes My wife told me to write no open wounds because Quark may contain more bacteria in other countries, producers, ... An easy memory rule for kids is PECH. Pech is german for tough luck, misfortune. P for Pause, stop activities right away E for Eis (ice), cold water, icing, cooling C for Compresse, bandages H for Hochlagern, rest the leg in a high position

You will never reach 100% in evade, reflect, block, chance enemy can't evade, - reg malus on buffs.... Even if the sum in the items is higher. Damage mitigation how ever can reach 100%, that is a bug. For the hit chance Dampened value of -chance that enemy can evade PLUS full sum of enemy cannot evade If this sum is 100 and the enemy has no chance to dodge the hit chance should be 100% My barbarian mathematician runs arou d with a hit chance of 30% versus bosses and hits every time, he calls that knoffhoff (german science tv show miswriting know how)

My daughter considers the ice elf as the most powerful in the CM-patch: temporary invisibility Boss killing CA and since the ice elf uses faladal set which has +CA range a nearly full screen ice storm is possible at high levels

The problem with damage lore in my unarmed build: YOu can't socket physical to poison modifier because the character lacks a weapon So all he has is the silver modifier: 1 poison base damage per CA-level. It is not how damage lore works but I don't know if the poison damage I dish out is enough to make damage lore a good choice. But as I said, it is the only skill which adds some more damage once mastered,
