Question about the Endow spells~
#1
Posted 08 May 2012 - 03:30 PM
I'm actually a monk (and a new player, as you might figure by the question i'm about to ask), and there are these nice four claws that have a chance to cast Lv5 endows on you (http://db.irowiki.or...item-info/1820/ for example). Or more specifically, "on your weapon", which is the reason for my question:
Do the endow spells actually buff your character, or the weapon you are wearing when the endow is cast on you?
I'm asking because having those fist weapons around seems incredibly handy, especially if you can just get them to proc their Lv5 endow and then switch to a stronger weapon, like maces or knuckles of your choice (because the endow fists have pretty puny ATK), basically using the endow weapons as "buff slaves".
I figured the mage section might be the best place to ask this.
Tyvm for reading =)

It is really good to know though that the endow spells actually endow your weapon and not your character, something i couldn't find on irowiki, thanks for your help =)

And my friend has actually tried to level with the Endow claw weapons. From his experiance, the proc rate on them is REALLY LOW. It's faster and easier just to make a simple Sage Endow slave.
The Mild Wind helms on the other hand do proc with some sort of regularity though. So get the Mild Wind helms if you don't want to have a Endow Slave. Mild Wind increases damage much higher than Endow anyway.

Alrighty, making a sage it is then.

Should only take an hour to make a Endow sage slave.

If i were to make a naked Mage with only eden equips and 0 zeny, it'd probably take me.....1 hour to make an endow slave then actually now that I think about it.
2 ways to go about it, have equpment already on hand and just blast everything in your abusing friends/guildmates and your super god equpiment.
Or 2, make a Kunai ninja on a 2nd account and leech Mage at Magmarings.
http://db.irowiki.or...info/ve_fild03/
Mind you, both of these require money, but the Kunai ninja at least a little bit less. 1000 Ice Kunais will only cost you 38k(with level 10 Discount) to make.
Sticking high level gear on a low level mage pretty much assumes you already have the couple million income to buy gear. Which is also assuming you had a Wizard/Warlock/Sage/Scholar character to have the lower mage borrow gear for as well.
If you have no need for a ninja on the 2nd account, then just delete him after your done with him. Kunai ninjas as of now are so damn fast at leveling that they make excellent Leechers. If both accounts are VIP, then having 1000 Wind Kunais and taking them both to Overlook Dungeon, you can make an endow slave in 30 minutes.

edit: yes, overlook dungeon was the place i spent the most time leveling my monk so far (who is about 70 by now); which is also why i was asking about endows in the first place, because everything in there is wind vulnerable =D i'd love to get some kaiser knuckles or some flora cards and an endow, but right now, that seems a bit out of reach - which, again, isn't too bad, i wouldn't want to end up being high lvl and not having seen/done anything than speed through a couple of leveling spots.

That way you have the income for random kafra warps because the NPCs will constantly direct you to EVERYWHERE. Then you have ways to farm for the random items that the NPCs tell you to hunt.
I find it hard to enjoy any of the side distractions when I had no money and no income and no gear at all.
Basically what I'm saying is that I didn't do any of the other stuff untill i actually became bored of leveling.
I tanked my guildmate his first 2 characters to rebirth in a week and tank his 7 other characters to 70+ in 4 days. Now that the hard noob leveling is outa the way for him, he can do all the exploring he wants without having to worry about not having money or some random monster killing him.
It's kinda hard to explore random maps with a level 40 character when the 60+ aggressive mobs are out for blood.

Throw Kunai used to have "Miss Damage". Meaning if you used Throw Kunai on a monster and the attack was supposed to have missed, instead of doing usual 5000 dmg you were supposed to do, it would be like 300 damage. They threw that mechanic away though. So now it does full damage no matter what.
This means that with Max Level Throw Kunai, all STR(cause you need no dex), you can kill Magmarings which are a level 110 monster in 2~3 throw Kunais. Getting you MASSIVE exp that you aren't supposed to get at your level.
Magmarings are pretty much great exp up to level 70~75 where it finally slows downs. After that, you go to Amatsu and kill poisonous toads which will give you around 5~6k exp each. Even more with VIp and a battle manual.

Endow (but not mild wind) is removed upon changing weapons; endow is canceled if you ever don't have a weapon equipped (which happens while switching weapons). You also can't endow your bare hands, as if you'd ever want to.

Did they used to? I swear there was something that autocast endows and ate stones to do so. God help you if you had high aspd.Nah, endow claws don't eat up stones. As my friend's monk has no reason to carry them and they did proc for him. It just happens so rarely.
