Also make sure to look at the cost of 2 level of caphras on your weapon vs a tungrad accessory for that 1 extra ap. At some point the 8-10 bil from an accessory might be cheaper than caphrasing.
It's worth noting that DP brackets aren't as important as AP brackets. More tankiness comes from either damage reduction and/or, if you're evasion, having enough evasion that it can make a difference vs your opponent's accuracy. For TET boss gear, you won't have enough evasion to matter so you may as well ignore evasion. And C4 gives you evasion DP which is useless at that level of gear. Even C3 only gives you one DR. My point is, stuff like Fallen God, at least for PVE, is very very impactful. The 13 monster DR alone can mean as much as 10% reduced damage against some mobs. Even against very hard hitting mobs it can be 5% reduced damage. Definitely more important than DP brackets.
Hey choice this is super helpful! Thank you so much for the awesome video. I know this was close to a gear progression guide but maybe a full on gear progression guide would be nice. I’m sure it would be time consuming but it would answer a lot of questions. Thanks again for the awesome video
Hi, great stuff for new players. Just one more to add that if you only care about pve, after 271 you can choose go double tet bs. Cuz the extra monter ap from both bs scales 1:1 to pve ap. Altough you do lose the advantage of slowly progress your ap btackets but the extra monster damage roughly gives you 2-3 brakets of ap (meaning you are doing same damage in pve as a 278~282ish player with kzarka & dande). This method saves you a lot of money on caphras, which can be used either on buying accessories or progressing dp, cuz at this stage of the game, you are more likely to be limited by dp from higher-end grind spot than ap. Also you can always sell your tet bs once you finished you dp bracket and switch back to pen boss weapon with minimal money loss. Or save them for pen bs lol
@@spliffzombonie If you only care about grinding and has limited resource to invest you dp, i would say yes. But don't sell your pen dande tho, you'll need it later cuz pen bs are hard to hit.
I find myself struggling with accuracy - I've hit 286k (with Vell's Heart, Kutum C7, Kzarka C5 and TET BS) and I find myself struggling with accuracy rather than DP to be honest. I believe with full acc crystal setup and light stone combo I'm getting like 75% hit chance at Orcs which is terrible :(
5:20 i got these aap in tet kutum and tet dandelion c1 but in have a tet tungrad earing not a pen capotia and i got all ap with books like bartali ( xbox )
Needed this video. Sitting on 5k caphras. Im on console and I have fg and dahns gloves. My boots and helm are c10. I have mainhand and awakened bs. And my nouver is c7. I was about to waste them in my nouver for sure lol. About to put that silver towards some new accessories
10:50 Offhands also have the downside that if you caphra your Kutum you only gain the stats fro pve if you use Nouver for pvp and vice versa so sometimes you only gain the stats in pvp and not pve and most classes at this gear level should not use Kutum for pvp because the additional "dp" is evasion and if you dont have evasion gear above c9 that additional evasion wont help in any way and you only throw away a large amount of AP for no benefit. Even the additional accuracy on Kutum should not be a reason to use it for pvp.
kutum is good in classes like striker/mystic, as they benefit more from kutum's stats. evasion classes also lose a lot of accuracy from using leeburs as such using nouver on lets say striker is gonna overall lower both your survivability and dmg even at lower caphra levels. also evasion on a DK wont be the same as evasion on striker so you cant generalize the evasion stat kutum gives, yes its gonna be bad on other classes but itll always be excellent and BiS on striker/mystic and any class/build that specializes in evasion.
VERY HAPPY TO HAVE SEEN THIS. your video did in 10 minutes what i have been trying to phrase to myself in a long long while. thank you for defining the problem, the solution and the math behind it
choice we need guide of what worker and what node we should invest for the grinders not lifeskiller. like i am grinder but i want to invest in nodes for income while grinding.. what's the best nodes to invest with. also what the difference if i spend energy on global node to level 10 or spend another energy to level 10 in the inside the big circle on specic smaller circle in the node
If you don't even cook a little ( which is dumb since it's mostly afk and gives you like 70+m a day with around 340 CP's at guru 10 which is kinda easy to get) i don't even think you'll gain that much from nodes, selling materials your workers get it's just like nothing.
There's a web i cannot remember now (i have it bookmarked in the PC) that tells you the net profit of each node in the game considering your server markets price and that you just want to sell everything right away
You should have a website where people can come and pay for 1 on 1 advice...i'm sure there is a market for this. Like a consultant fee for a specific strategy for that player and their goals...even if you charged a reasonable $50...you would make some decent money.
Great video champ! Hope you're doing well. Despire the video being amazing, I'm super gald to have quit the game long time ago. This seems so much more stressful these days...
I’m full pen and have c5 dandi on console. I’m 271 blackstar and 275aap and 351 was thinking of extracting my dandi caphras since I’m a succ lahn and dumping in on my muskan to get it c9 what should I do?
Thanks for the guide Choice I decided to go for fallen god earlier since I was lucky with the flame drop and aslo the dr against monsters from fallen god is really effective for grinding orcs and with enhancing it to pri you get 3 ez dp
dunno with the lowering prices i bough a main bs weap. now im sitting with 2 tet bs and a pen red nose (for fallen god) got no money left tho and there's no caphras in the cm
Hey choice, I see you have a pen capotia earring there, I have tet c4 armors, tet crescents, tet basi and pen capotia necklace, I can still take pen capotia ring/earring/belt from season, do you think I should get either ring or belt and sell tet crescent/basi? Or do I get a pen earring and get the extra dp for now?
I just started snagging everything at pen and then started using caphras, lowkey a waste of money to start at tet when you can use that money for ez pens
How do you get 318 DP with just tet armors and no caphras? Even with most of my adventure logs done I only have like 322 DP with c3 so I’m very confused lol
If you are sure that you will stay Succ for a long time TRI Fiery Dandelion c19 will be best in slot. The thing is a TRI Blue awakening weapon is better and way cheaper to make c19 (compared to a TRI dandelion) for succession for pvp but it cannot be merged with a Garmoths heart so the only thing that makes the TRI dandelion best in slot is for the fact that you can add 2 crystal slots.. hence I would say C19 TRI Fiery dandelion is the most optimal... Obviously a V Black star or C19 V Dandelion would be the best for every build succ or aw.. Just not worth the cost for succession

Not gonna lie, this game has the worst stats ever. Not only did y’all have to beg and dang near suck them off to actually SEE your stats, they have crap in this game like “hidden stats” for literally no reason. Why not just have your basic stats and let it be just that? Why is this game so convoluted when it comes to stats? Like, look at this mess. You can’t even see all the stats on the screen. Watching this video on the phone literally does not work lol.
Yeah I decided to say fuck it and just save for a pen kzarka while i keep trying to enhance my dande (I really don't think it will ever go to pen). I'm just 3 bil away
Listen I used to be a full TET rocky for years and I play this game extremely casual and don't spend real money and I currently own 4 boss pens. You get to a point where you make more money and gain the stuff. Also they are making it easier for us to get pen gear now with the guaranteed version. It will cost significantly less to make a pen

How about evasion boys?
Ah, you finally got that pen manos riding crop. Mubz mentioned that you were looking for one.
when do i get to c20 everything?
I have to say Soni and you have very different thoughts on how to gear up and caphra your gear
I would say Choice’s explanation is more thoughtful vs. someone else telling you to just caphras to level 4 on your armor, etc.
Good guide and tips.
