Never saw Casablanca ...yes I know this is the part where everybody beats me up Regarding Mystic River...woah..the last twenty minutes of that film is one of the most chilling I think ever put on celluloid (hey do they even use that anymore ) Spoiler alert!: Down by the river...they get him drunk...then Sean penn starts to ask him the qestion...my stomach crawlecd up into my throat I think...I was like...omg...no, no no...what can he do..he is SOOOOO Bleeped! Man, writing this down is making me rembmer more...his wife...all alone...whilst everyone cheering at the parade. Broke my heart gogo

Ahh, ty Myles! I appreaciate the kind words. Do you guys think if I make a post at the sif regarding this there could be more peeps who could 1-remember peeps who made build/guides.. 2-want to actually write build/guides... I'm thinkin that the more peeps that we can get to remember other peeps who are good with their class would maybe want to help with the contributing. ^^ gogo

Using npc's in a team is a cool idea...specially if you think that using the damage and extra hp that these npcs give whilst you socket yerself up with more exotic weaponry... very intereseting. Could this be the new horse? oops...Pevil... Is there an order that you recommend these guys should be picked up in? I"m terrible with quests and half these npcs are strangers to me. Maybe map or lay down a pick up guide fer that hot girl in the castle that I can bring along with me on fiery adventures of fantasticalness? gogo p.s. Schot, you've been playin Necro and Minions in GW waaaaaaay too much dude

heh, I posted a copy of this in the sif and got back some interesting responses: http://forum.sacredeng.ascaron-net.com/sho...9969#post389969 gogo

Hey guys! WE've been canvassing the world now it seems trying to find the builders of the guides and builds to create a huge Sacred library of builds for the community. We've been super successful so far with being able to track down some of the really relevant ones for today's sacred and bring them here where they can be organized all into one place. I'm having problems with finding Vamp, WE and Glad guides. The problem is that almost eveyrone who has posted them in the Sif gone and/or is unavailable now. I realized now that this challenge is probably taking me longer than it should becuase it's just me going through all the SIF databases looking for guides and builds and guides and builds and sending out what seems like hundreds of pms hahah. I"m wondering if any of you guys know off hand peeps that are good guide/build writers for these classes? Any Volunteers? And/or are there guides floating around in the SIF DB NOT pinned that we can track down and then pm the owners for posting rights? Thanks! gogo p.s. To all the Contributors of all the guides here a very sincere thank you for the time and commitment you have given to the FDM. This project has been so much more succesfful than imagined and it's growing into something that can really help everyone. Thank you

No problem with the triple scotch And sorry to hear about the crash...owch! here...we have some of this from teh back room...why dontcha give it a go Enjoy! gogo

High Damage Hybrid Seraphim...Next Gen Damage With WIDD Before starting let's give full credit to Schot who discovered WIDD and put it into play on the HC servers. His incredible insight into damage strategies and his ability to twist my arm into seeing his way allowed me to build this most incredible Wonderbabe. lol, a poor but extremely fun copy of his awesomely powerful mage now wreaking destruction through platinum. Thank You The high damage seraphim thread written up last year was tons of fun. I"m really glad that people found it interesting and tried out some of the ideas there. That thread had some great posters and wild ways of increasing damage! (knight's Mono-Elemental damage mods, Shai-Hullud's Racial Damage mods and Stalky's and Telenochek's great insight on Critical!) http://forum.sacredeng.ascaron-net.com/sho...ead.php?t=24556 Thanks to all the great people who voiced their thoughts, added their ideas, and basically made WIDD a new and wonderfully build strategy that even today still surprises me! So is this new post a build? Hmmm, I don't know. As an exercise in seraphim capabilities, I'd like to hope, though, that it begins to match Knight of the Roses's revolutionary, ground breaking Archer seraphim that really showed us the depths of this game. So enjoy...and don't die! My newest Wonderbabe has now hit level 110. Skills: Magic Lore Weapon Lore Concentration Constitution Parrying Heavenly Magic Duel Wield Meditation In one battle she has the capacity to: 1- Easily take out mobs 20 levels above her with an Attack Ca of level 40 with a regen of 1.5...damage averaging between 25000-50000 per hit (even higher). 2- Cast 15 level 40 Celestial lights (CL) at once with a regen of 1.3 seconds, with damage ranging from 4000-7000 (higher even) per cl cast. (Incredibly useful for stunning and killing stubborn dragons or getting the attention of monsters to far too run to and so have them run to you ) 3- Cast a level 89 Light buff 120 seconds with a regen of 25.9 seconds, with damage running at an average of 20000 per pulse (even higher). 4- Use Combat Jump level 24, with 1.9 second regen with damage ranging from 125000-250000 a jump (lol, I could do better but I've been lazy lately ) 5- Lol, run away at a movement speed of 195! (While also dancing around, evading blows, and fireballs too ! ) Interesting stats: Level 110 hc plat char Duel Wielder Chance to Critical: 85 percent Resistance: 2042 Defence: 1573 Life Leech: 6 percent Number of Defence ammies in slots: None! How is this possible? With what Schot and I think is probably the most powerful mod ever... Wounds Increase Damage Dealt (WIDD). WIDD rings and ammies have replaced all of my damage rings and defence ammies. I currently have close to 300% WIDD slotted. At this level (110) if any of you want to try out this build, I really recomend no WIDD ring of less than 24 percent just to get a try of the damage this build is capable of. WIDD increases ALL of my damage to such an extent that having so much defense on had become redundant. Basically WIDD gets better damage with the less health points you have. So...the more damage you want...the less health you have to have. What we've been doing is allowing a monster to knock our health down to a third or half...then go out killing Baddies. Tons of fun! The huge damage that you're now capable of dealing out now increases life leech capabilites as well...therefore this build needs less far less life leech. Indeed...if the life leech is too high...the huge damage done gives you back health far too quickly thereby reducing your ability to do another attack of high damage! This build is NOT for beginners. Your health meter must constantly be monitored. lol, just incase... I'd really only recommend this build for experienced players and not for the faint of heart. Understand that you are basically converting your healthpoints into damage...so your life meter will definitely flicker . WIDD's use for Light, RBOL, and CL are outstanding!. Sometimes it's fun to just wait and see how far this mod will go. By staying in one place and not using Attack...you let your buff deal out higher and higher damage as your health points get lower and lower...with each higher amout of damage dealt out getting more life leech back! It's the last pulse that's scary but VERY thrilling..your health points are low...but that last pulse of Light or RBOL can do almost 70000 points of damage! (lol, quite addictive ) I found with this second version of WIDD Duel Wield, I was able to emulate the effects of the Armor skill without using it as a Skill choice by creating what I call a R and R slot. (Weapon Slot 3...Rest, Run and Relaxation! ) Weapon Slot 1-Melee Weapon slot 2-Celestial light Casting Slot Weapon slot 3-R and R slot Weapon slot 4-Light Casting Slot or Rbol Slot Weapon slot 5-Strength of faith or anything else you want slot CA slot 6-Attack CA slot 7-Celestial light Ca slot 8-Combat Jump CA slot 9-Light or RBOL CA slot 10-Strength of faith or anything else you want to slot Slot 3 is crucial to this build... I had to reproduce the Armor skill... 1-Which increases movement speed when wearing higher level armor. 2-Gives Resistance to Damage. So, in that slot I"ve put any two weapons or sword and shield combo, that have the highest possible speed mods on them. Also...all the available sockets on the selected items in slot 3 are socketed with any rings or amulets with the highest magic or spell regen possible. After I finish a battle I'm able to toggle to slot 3 effortlessly, allowing me to run at VERY high speeds to the next mob while regenning my spells at a highly accelerated rate, all at the same time! Armor's resistance is not needed anymore because the high damage this build is capable of results in an amplification of life leech capabilities. Without having to choose Armor skill I was freed up to pick an additional skill...and so I chose meditation, allowing the creation of a truly unique Hybrid with powerful spell casting capabilites and VERY fast magic regen combined with astounding melee damage. Hints: To Cast spells high and then regen them uber fast...make sure you only have items which increase spell levels on the slot you are casting them from. Example of Battle: Cast CL from slot with items that have high CL in them...After the cl is blasting away at level 40, for example...you then switch to your melee slot where your huge melee damage comes into play, while your CL is still blasting away in the back ground at level 40! After this...you spot another mob from a distance...toggle to your R and R slot... Boom! Increase in movement speed, AND level 40 Celestial light now regens at level 1 cl rate or better! (depending on how much magic regen you've socketed in that R and R slot) When you arrive for your next battle all your spells are ready for action once again! What's important to remember is that if you're going to socket items that increase magic damage...only the level of the cl that it was originally cast at remains the same, after you switch slots. Increasing magic damage through percentage modifiers to magic damage on items worn all the time stay with you all the time while the spell is blasting away. Putting percentage mods to magic damge on a slot you are casting the cl from will not. So very very important that! And, as yet, I"ve read no cl runes. All Cl levels are coming from carefully selected items. I'd like to point out that because the wield is Duel...I have the option of choosing from between ANY shield or weapon that has the highest CL on it. So...lol, for awhile I was using TWO Wide Daggers of the Raab sisters! Notes: 1-To create a build like this you will probably need another character with Trading running at least twenty levels ahead of you to buy the WIDD rings you'll need to get the percentage to make the mod work Or...have lots of great friends that don't mind helping you out! (Huge thanks to Schot, Strange, Keebler, Mortal Dream...and if I"ve forgotten anyone please, when I'm online...just kick me! ) 2-You must constantly be landing blows...Strengh of Faith I luv ya! Also low regen times on whichever Ca you use for Attacking is crucial...if you're not landing blows and dealing damage, you're open to getting damaged VERY quickly. 3-Depending on the amount of risk you want to take you can literally dial in the damage you want to inflict. Lower your healthpoints...then keep them low ...your damage will be high Or...if you don't want to have risk...simply play the game normally with the WIDD mod...what will happen is that the WIDD mod will act as a huge amplifier to Damage ergo more life leech ergo a quick return to full health. Lol, you're practically invulnerable! It's recommended that you start with AT LEAST 300 % WIDD to get the damage I"m getting. 4-Practice this build in softcore. I pretty much only play hc, and so I was pretty scared the first time I was bullied into trying this out. So I practiced by exporting my HC chracacter to Open, thereby getting used to seeing my life meter flash WAY more and getting a feel for a character that lives so seemingly close to the edge. But...repeated tests in softcore have proven that this mod is unbelievably powerful for a skilled player. lol, sometimes it takes a great deal of faith to believe that the mod whill kick in at the last minute and blow every monster to smithereens! Watching your healthpoints get lower ...and lower Watching the damage you inflict get higher... and higher! While remembering that each blow you inflict leeches you back a larger and larger number of health points each time. 5-Myself I'm comfortable with 6% life leech...if you're not, simply adjust your life leech accordingly...What will happen is that your health will say practically full all the time, but you will be trading in some damage. 6-This MOD lends itself excellently to experienced players of ALL classes. Schot will publish his guide soon and it's a whammy! 7- Obviously this build has great merit to characters that can attack from a distance...Anyone feel like trying out a Ebolts Wounds Seraphim? 8- Absolutely get used to the idea of having a buff. Yes you can kill almost everything really fast...but a buff is now your new armor...remember your protection comes from landing blows...never forget that. 9- You should only start switching ammies and damage rings to WIDD rings at platinum...and when you've got enough Rings to reach almost 300 % 10- So what do I have socketed now? lol, only Wounds and Rsm...that's it! lol, of course...I'm always looking for ways to improve my damage...I really want to see a seraphim hit in the millions! Is it possible? Got any ideas guys? Cheers and have fun with WIDD! gogo

eek I posted this thread in the sif too and its gotten some pretty interesting comments: http://forum.sacredeng.ascaron-net.com/sho...ead.php?t=43062 woah gogo

I just saw yer post go up now....wow That classic peanuts touch goes far my friend and the colors, theme and excellent strength of the set is first class. Beautiful work gogo

wow Christian this is one of the most user friendly guides around for a Daemon. It's got not only a listing of what to take and why but also a very well written way of how a user is to use these Combat Arts in different parts of Ancaria. I really like your descriptions of the tentacles, why they're important, damage done and kind of damage done. It's all the little things noted that make this a good read. And general game tips when applying your guide to playing in hc is always welcome. Recommended reading for Daemon wanna-be's out there. gogo

Well, not exactly Indy but instead by what something else I saw today. Something he posted. Something in the uber hot member's pic thread running here: http://darkmatters.org/forums/index.php?sh...p;#entry6768909 It was the Sagrada Familia that completely threw me for a loop. When I first saw the pics I didn't even know what I was looking at. I squinted over and over to make sense of the images I was seeing. My first thought was ...giant termite hills or some sort of architecture that I've never seen before... lol, for a while I thought I was looking at some sort of graphics in a video game! The scale, the design, the novelty of it all just had me staring and staring. And Yarasa's comments as well as the fact that Ike and Indy had aleady been and were just gushing over it compelled me to find out as much as I could about it. The scale of this undertaking, the fact that they don't seem to care about having it done on time, it's sheer SIZE kept having me go back over and over. Course I'm always looking for stuff on the net and when I saw this image I just knew that image was pefect for our forum's present incarnation within a fantasy setting. So thank you indy for posting the images and everyone else who oohed and aahed on that thread and set me on a journey where I found out more about this incredible undertaking. And while this image we are using now as background does not even begin to pay justice to the work being done in Barcelona... It's still pretty cool huh gogo p.s. <a href="http://fantasyartdesign.com"> Fantasy Art 3D Wallpapers:</a> digital art pictures 3D artists gallery, free computer desktop backgrounds.

It would be wicked if some members from DA wanted to play with us. We've known them fer years and this would really be more fun. gogo

hahah ahh, sorry indy...but look at it this way... schot had to have his sig stripped away too gogo

Hey guys The official sig sizes post which can be found here: http://darkmatters.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=1268 Have been modified. Official sizes for FDM heights on sigs has now changed from 200 to 150. Heh, sorry we tried but the height was a little too hard on the eyes over and over everytime someone posted. Hope this helps. Cheers! gogo

K, there was a convo goin on in the servers a few days ago that intrigued me. Someone was interested in the Icons set and I forwarded the info that they were great fer split do lots of small hits over and over and also lag hahah. Also, I said that they were the most ultra rare set items in the game. Another player on the servers responded that you could pick up the entire set in bronze. And..soemthing about quests...and the he's never found Icons anywhere else THAN in bronze... Does this make sense? I've found icons everywhere all over the servers. I also have found that they are so rare that it's always best fer peeps to trade parts of the set so that one person has it for awhile until they get bored of it So a few questions...for a while I'd heard that bronze percentages for good drops exists... Does this, in turn, have an effect upon the percentage drop of icons? Did he say that the icons drop so nicely in bronze because percentages for good drops if you can stay in bronze are so good that getting the icons is easier? Or, is there a quest or quests that I don't know about that give icons to hc players? Thanks! gogo

Welcome to the FDM Therion! The guides are superb and that Soaring is the one that caught me eye...one hit kills in niob huh.. oowah Yer passion with the DAemon reminds me of that which I had with the seraphim. So fragile and deadly. I loved pushing her Combat Arts to the limits but eventually I think I'd just done too many builds wth her. My new passion with the Daemon is frightneingly strong and I'm excited to see what kind of numbers we can pull out of her. A big welcome to you Therion, there are many sections so have fun exploring. Welcome! gogo

heheh, welcome back to Key Largo, Kiki. We're gonna set you up at the bar as bouncer for FDM First drinks on the house Cheers! gogo

Sweet work Myles! And again ty fer the time! Also, lol...it was schot over my shoulder who showed me the trick of grabbing code from your post in the SIF and using it here. Glad it all worked out and heck...it looks good! gogo

For all of ogame's bad sides, lol, this is a part of I'ts brilliance...the fact that anyone can play it from all over the world and they can be any age. It's a new form of activity, onlining is, that strips away a lot of the prejudices of age and finally begin the stance of having everyone attempt to start at the same starting line. Hey..I just got my gramma online two years ago. Go Gramma! gogo p.s. kiki, hey...good seeing ya here again...don't be a stranger and hang our more! And...some of us are playing IMperia online in April...join up with Dark!

wow@! Ike, do you ever sleep? gogo
