i got a alt archer and a alt nuker.. i like both and play them both pretty slow. just enjoying the ride. i managed to overenchant a mithril dagger to +7 and now i wanna trade it for either a staff for my nuker or a bow for my archer. i need to know.. does any of the weapons have a way higher benefit from a +ed weapon ?
the nuker is a DE , the archer a human scout.
so... plz fill me in :P im not sure if some weapons get special bonusus after +3 or if higher Matk matters less because how its calculated
Because the enchants add a fixed amount of patk, weapon types which have lower patk will benefit more from it, relatively speaking.
This means that dagger users benefit the most while 2h sword users benefit the least from OE'd weapons. But as for what to use for your chars, it still depends on what you want and your playstyle. While a dagger would be relatively stronger it doesn't mean a bow or staff would be weak and useless in comparison.
As for "special bonuses", only C-grade duals and up get a special ability if they're +4 or higher. No other weapons do.
i would say get the staff. low lvl archers should lvl with daggers because its less costly and kill rate is good. so i would get the +7 staff of life and just get another regular dagger for ur bow.
the bonus i am talking about was that i remember reading somehowere ( might have been jsut a rumour) that bows will get increased Patk after +3 overenchanting, making a OEd bow in effect better overenchanted then the staff would be. but i dont know if thats true :p
anyway i guess i`ll try and dig up another dagger somewhere and lvl my archer like that
personally i'd say save your money for C grade on either of those characters, as the difference in kill speed with OE vs non-OE in D grade isnt that large. and the difference in patk with enchants isnt even noticable in D grade.
D grade is 2 patk/matk per enchant, 4 on oe. C grade is 3 patk/matk per enchant, 6 on OE.
bows work somewhat different. D grade bows are pretty crappy OE'ed, but you should definitely think about C grade bows OE'ed.
in C grade bows, normal enchants give 6, and OE's give 12 patk.
you shouldnt use a bow on a D grader anyways. without cheapshot, you'll be resting for MP every 5 minutes. not a good idea.
also, C grade can serve a nuker to 75. their damage is less dependant on their weapon compared to an archer. matk has a logarithmic relationship to damage. so doubling your matk only results in 1.414x the damage, quadroupling it results in double damage, etc.
bit of a shame.. was looking forward to shooting stuff with a bow :P but if i`ll be on my *** most of the time ill stick with the dagger. i know OEing aint THAt special at lower lvls, just had a ton of scrolls left from the pumpkin event some time ago :)
now all i need is find me another D grade weapon :p
