Im talking about 2000+ effective TP, so with 250TP bonus from Moonshade. Also holding TP to 1500+ is simply several % better DPS, unless you need to WS faster to close SC.
Ofc in real scenario it will varies. For example if you use Liberator in Sheol C the best way would be to hold TP to achieve WS damage that can finish of the target (which can even be 2500 TP, but can also be 1000TP if mob is at low HP% because BRD WSed it or something).

Ahh okay I got what you saying now was like if you hold tp 2k+ you gotta be super low on damage. Makes more sense now my bad.

While on the topic of Liberator, what sets are you guys using for AM3 these days?

With SAM roll semi glass cannon STP set (odyssean legs, Valorous feet, flamma head, Hjarrandi body, Sakpata hands) is only 6% ahead of full Sakpata, so I'm not sure if it's even worth it to use it in most cases. Without Sam roll it's 9% ahead.
Potentially some empy +2 piece might get some huge sTP+

That’s essentially what I’ve been using now and I agree, I’m not sure if the glass cannon aspect really makes it worthwhile. Hoping you’re right and some empy upgrades look like Nyame path A.

Also when fTP scaling was a tiny fraction of what WSs have today, meaning extra TP was usually basically a waste.

Not played the content but the main elemental weaponskills for DRK are Infernal Scythe, Dark Harvest and Shadow Of Death. You also have Herculean Slash on great sword. Are you trying to kill them or simply repeat it often?

Need to do high damage with elemental ws I think it needs to be over 15k
By Nariont 2022-08-30 19:58:20
Best 2 handed magic ws youll get is shadow of death at 2k+ not sure drk has access to anything better

Go to the High-End Sets thread. The front page should have a set for Shadow of Death. The community guide on bg also has sets for reference.

Yeah, not looked at the sets but I'm guessing for the highest damage you'll need Pixie Hairpin +1, Archon Ring, and a ton of magic attack bonus.

Good evening!
Had a passing thought and figured I'd ask as I'm not ML50 and there isn't an explicit answer on bg:
Does Endark/II have a known cap?

Funny little set I made.
ItemSet 389657
Waist is Cornelia's Belt, back has Counter +10.
It's mostly for maximum survival. With capped augments, it's got 50% DT, 55 Subtle Blow, 60 Counter, and solid defense/MEVA.
Some possible swaps are:
Agwu's Claymore to a REMA if you want better DPS over 10 counter.
Schere to Assauge or Dignitary's if you don't want to kill your MP
Sacro to Dagon if you'd prefer 65 SB/45 counter over 55 SB/60 counter
Heathen's Flanchard +3 to Sakpata and Schere to Heathen +1/2 or Odnowa +1 for less SB but more defense/MEVA

I'd almost take 70 vit over 10 counter in a vacuum

Both Endark II and Enlight II work the same in that they each go up a tier every 20 magic skill. So, having 601 or 619 skill would be the same as having 600, so you can work in defensive or spell interruption rate stats if slots are free. Nobody has found a cap on these spells yet. I'm guessing they are like Temper II, which also has no known cap. I believe most (not all) spells with caps default to 500.

The skill tiers for Endark II between 600 and 700 are 604, 617, 630, 643, 656, 669, 682, and 695.

Appreciate y'all (eventually) chiming in and answering. Came to the same conclusion on my own. (Same can basically be said for RDM Enspells) So yeah, no known cap has been reached--even with 50 additional skill levels due to Master Levels. Cheers anyway. :)
