I see the difference now its for a dual blade i guess theres a difference in daggers....is that gear from chest? yes, there is dual blade daggers which are all pretty bad with the possible exception of the nameless blade and regular daggers. The upgrades are not interchangeable. Are you talking about the armor Gekrakel mentioned? You get Drakescale armor for getting a cumulative total of 1 million XP for the 3 classes, warriors, rogues, and mages. Everyone except the Virtuoso gets an armor. It is the highest armor rating in the game. You can check your progress to getting the armor in the challenges section in game, can't remember what section specifically though. The armor does help tremendously in earlier difficulties.

Bloody bargain is either best or 2nd best dagger in game. Savage thorn is pretty good too though I never thought the guard was particularly helpful for squishy classes. As the soaring beagle mentioned, there really isn't any of those correlations in this game though it sometimes feels like it.
Also, if you want some better weapons, I would suggest doing a bunch of perilous dragon runs. They sometimes reward you with purple or blue dragon weapons which are pretty decent (and oftentimes have heal on kill properties). Don't quote me for sure on this but I think threatening dragons can reward you with blue dragon weapons if perilous is out of the question yet.

If it's Hakkon weapons you are after, heartbreaker isn't the way to go about it. Farming nightmare dragons on the fereldan castle map is the way. Yes, you can get them through store chests but not reliably. In fact, they may be locked (from getting them via store chests) until you reach a certain loot score but I'm not sure on that. They are never level locked from getting them via nightmare dragons however. The drop rate is not great either way and the grind, as you mentioned, is real. I'd help you but I'm on PC.

Tried finding a NM pug today. None available. So I tried perilous and still nothing. Eh whatever. I'll do a few threatening for agent completions with ZITHER. Finally find a game with someone playing the arcane warrior. It's only threatening but they are doing well. So next game the guy bumps it up to perilous. Perfect! We obliterate perilous as well though the pug went down once I think. Next game the leader bumps it up to nightmare. Even better! Just thought it was funny that I went from threatening to nightmare the a few games with the same pug.

Played some heartbreaker with Witty and RogueKnight using only Necromancer, Elementalist, and Virtuoso team. A lot of fun! The Venatori mages couldn't possibly resist all of us with fire, ice, and lightning attacks.

Hmm, re-installing should have no effect on PS4, right? I got my last keeper about one month ago - but it was also like 300K gold ago and many NM runs... I have just had the worst RNG in this game. still three 27's and my second hakkon dagger to go~ ug........... I wouldn't think that would have any effect since you don't have single player mods on PS4. However, it's really impossible to say for sure whether reinstalling even has any effect on PC anyway. Hopefully your luck will pick up!

Finally finished the 5000 spider kills challenge. I didn't even know I was approaching it. I thought I still had about 400 or 500 to go. All of them except 300 were achieved naturally without farming. I'm still super salty that I missed the old community event where every enemy was spiders. It would have drastically reduced the completion time! Fun fact: I got the spider kills award on the same day that the new Spider Man movie debuted. Not planned but funny nonetheless.

I guess I really shouldn't complain, but I am still waiting patiently for my 2nd. I got my first about 6 months ago and have gotten nothing since. Definitely would like a higher DPS one. Still don't have the master stamina amulet either not that that really matters...
Though I haven't been buying chests lately either which doesn't help.

7. Biggest noob moment you have seen?I played with a squishy alchemist who insisted on running off ahead to lay mines and ended up dying. Every. Single. Time. Multiple matches. Despite my and Ivory's pleas to stay with the group for some protection. This was great. I was in that group as well. Out of the like six games (30 zones) we played with him, I bet he died/faded in 28 of them. My outlook on it was that if at first you don't succeed, try, try again. But then you said that it was more like the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result which made much more sense in this situation. It's funny how such a random experience is so memorable

For my story (and a noob mistake) my brother and I were playing early on. We were fighting dark spawn in zone 5 and had just about killed the alpha emissary. Suddenly it threw its arms wide and started doing some strange red lightning thing. My brother and I were like, 'what the hell?' so we both went right up to it and were watching it. 'What do you think that is?'.. 'No idea what....' And then we both died in the explosion and lost the match.. Ha! What was your brother's name on here? Would I have played with him when he was still on? And, I'll answer the rest of these questions later!

It is a bit easier to work with the freezing on the mages, since you can attack from a distance. It is the running up to whack them over the head with my 2-hander that is really dicey. Yep. I tried soloing a HB today with the silent abomination only to be permafrozen to death by a group of 4 despair demons in a tight hallway. >

Less than 3. Fully expected to devote years of my life to it like ME3MP. Yeah..... It's one of those games that isn't really that fun in the beginning. You definitely need to spend some time in it before it becomes fun and you can get new characters, weapons, and armor. When I first started this game, I played a few rounds, didn't really like it because I was so weak, turned it off, and didn't play it again for a few weeks. By chance I gave it another try. Then it started to become more fun and the grind commenced. Now, when you're more powerful and have good items, it's more fun I think.

Funny. Last HB I was in with Red Templar, I also had an opportunity to kill the captain. I really REALLY wanted to but missed the chance. That guy definitely deserves it. And let's be honest, he had no chance of surviving in HB anyway...

For the first time ever since I started playing this game, my constitution is now higher than my cunning promotions. Just hit 200 constitution with cunning remaining at 199 which it has been at for probably a month or two.
Anyone know when I'll start to see 4 bars of health with pact belt at any level? I know it needs to be 240 constitution to have four bars at level 1 but I should start seeing four bars soon with mid level mages I think...

Interestingly enough, I discovered this IS NOT TRUE! I don't have my Banker yet. I thought I got that before my hiatus. Guess I should start to track it.. only 75% there. I'm not very focused on the achievements even more.. still have to complete alchemist and assassin challenges, but I don't play the alchemist and the assassin I play once a week. But depressingly you are still way ahead of me. Maybe the Crescent should give me gold every time I kill to ease my pain. That would be awesome! Imagine if instead of the ice barrage projectiles, the crescent just shot out gold. I could feel like Santa Claus giving out gifts to everyone... Though I can imagine some crafty players farming gold by taping their attack button on stage 5 FC against dragonlings while they watch a movie or something.

This reminded me... When will we have 4 Zithers FC run. The B (B for brilliant?) team already beat you to it. And while wearing all different pact belts! It went about exactly how you would expect, laggy.

Sometimes I think very little. For the next DAMP, I would like to be able to craft multiple dragon calls simultaneously. How about the Dragon being a random chance for zone 5 and scapping the dragon call idea altogether. Sure, it would mean less exp for me BUT it would certainly stop people shitting all over pugs that call the dragon. Then we can all be happy. It would 'probably' mean more people to play with as well? Or just have it random but give the same XP as a commander zone 5. And probably make it a little harder as well.

I just keep meeting some super stars on late night( gmt -3) pugs. Last night i've got a dream team running around. Rogueknight, Terrell and Gekrakel just made Hearbreaker to look like routine. And thanks for the healing baths( im still wet with those potions )! You guys are very kind even when I forgot to bring the ring on =p. Oh and was funny that guessing game we played choosing agents for the game.Dont know if any of you said anything as I was testing some microphone settings and ingame chat gone mute somehow on that section. Sorry to bring the mage when you wanted to bring one Terrell. It was the only thing that could do something on this diffulty( Sister was 1 and legionarie 10 =p). Haha, wow, I've never been called a superstar in this game before But, as for the guessing game, RogueKnight and I usually try to balance out teams so we have one of every class. With all of us switching due to the other person switching, it can look quite like a guessing game I guess. I'm never really headstrong about playing any specific class myself if someone else wants it. Give yourself some credit too! Your glyphs and support were instrumental in the fairly easy victory!

Ohhhh, so that's why certain controller players broadcast everything they are doing while they play. It never bothered me but I always wondered why their chat was constantly engaged.

Whaaaaaaaa? Ring haters! I always like rings as long as they are upgraded. But, I have space for it since I never take barrier (doesn't feel remotely like a challenge with barrier bots and I can live without the extra XP for a more fun game). Then again, I am a lowly plebeian with less than 250 willpower who can't oneshot everything yet Wait, I barely even play Saarebas, why am I even contributing to this? Or for you dog lovers...

Thank you TankMage Was looking on this topic post date and I'm impressed. I've been playing this game so much that it feels like it was posted months ago Im just happy that I met some super stars in game. Flatterer! Now how much whipped cream did you want on your latte? LOL, I truly don't know what this means but it made me laugh regardless.

Though it seems like your mind is already made up, I'm still going to also submit my endorsement for the heart of pride as well. The only negative thing about it is once you finally get the Hakkon, you will miss the speed! If you're really feeling adventurous, use the speed belt and let the enemies remove over half your health. Also, take off any heal on kill. Then your basic attack speed is super super fast! Probably not a realistic build as the pact belt is better in my opinion but fun nonetheless.

Remember that time way long ago on original BSN when I made a comment joking about one-shotting NM enemies with basic attacks and someone was all over me saying no one can do that? If only they could see us now And congrats to you!
