I was under the impression that ethereal didn't mitigate damage at all, but just gave you that much mp.

For a MDT set with already capped MDT would Mujin or Ethereal be better in an ear slot?

That's correct. Mujin over Ethereal.

While muling, I noticed I had 15 Coins of Advancement sitting there, which is half the coins needed for the WoE h2h weapon. My question is which weapon + WS would be the better combination:

Level 90 Revenant Fists +2 with Victory Smite

or

Level 99 STR/ATK Magian weapon with Shijin Spiral?

I've been using the Magian weapon for some time now, but with only 3 merit WS's available, and having half the Coins needed already for WoE, I am wondering if the WoE weapon would perform better and thus, free a WS slot.

I am not making Vere, getting my Ukon to 99 is enough for me. Basically, I am trying to find out which of these two weapons is better overall damage-wise in VW/Ein/Neo-Limbus etc.

So, math-heads, which one wins?

EDIT: Spelling.

Anyone? D:

@seha: is that iwasawa from Angel Beats! in your avatar?

Quick question about VW pulse cells (if anyone knows) I have killed qilin/pil etc many times but I'm not "up to them" in terms of my clear progress. Do I have to be able to pop Pil to trade in the 5x cells or just have him killed on my character?

I believe you need the title in order to trade cels, but not in order to attain cels (incase you get some stuff you don't want to keep)

I get the title from defeating the mob not just when I am up to it in terms of path clears?

Turning off UAC should help if you haven't already. Also make sure you're doing a shortcut, otherwise you're throwing off the directory, which is probably why it boots without the windower hook attachment.

Are you getting all 5 TE/procing with steps? Procing greatly ups the chance of drops. (not sure if its JUST currency but I've seen more armor drop with procing than not)

If not, scroll down to the bottom of this page and read how. :P

What is the exact amount of fast cast on "Magavan Mitts"? BGWiki has it listed as 2-3%... was just wondering if anyone knew if it was 2 or 3% directly. The Repartie Gloves also from legion are confirmed 2% so I was wondering if they're the same. Also I'm aware that Rubeus Hands/Legs combo would be best but unfortunately, I still have not acquired Rubeus Hands.

Thanks.

Ok I need an advice! Since I'm very bad at managing my money(seriously don't ever entrust your money to me); I'm doing my relic weapon but I'm not sure if I should keep the coins for the next stage or sell them to buy more for the current one. First two stages weren't really an issue since there wasn't much to acquire, but now that I'm on the 62 stage I'm in doubt! I'm holding onto the bills for the last stage for now but they tempt me to finish the silvers faster!

Edit: on my server bills and pieces are currently both 8k each.
