Hunts and Evolith Discussion

Outta curiosity, this is dark magic skill (stun), and not darkness based magic (drain sleep aspir), right?

I honestly don't know how those will work. It just has the dark ele icon followed by the word magic. Doesn't say skill or elemental or anything like that. Just dark magic.

drain and aspir are dark magic skill spells. sleep is enfeebling

stun is dark magic skill, although its lightning elemented.

does it specify dark based dark magic or just dark magic in general

[tsola]

Ignamoth gave us Archery TP bonus +6%.

Light, diamond, 3.

[TheMysteriousX]

Dark Magic refers to Dark Magic.
Darkness refers to the spell element.

If I'm reading the list on page 6 properly.

We both said the same thing, in different ways, heh. Looks to be any dark element magic in general.

Marquis Sabnock evolith confirmed? Didn't see anything on wiki, I'm gonna go camp him for his dorp but if no one has confrimed the evolite I'm gonna go pick one up.

Axe Wpnskl.: Attack +14
<fire, filledtriangledown, 6>

Friend got +8 and says his had a filled triangle pointing up. Has it been confirmed different shapes are possible off the same evolith?

This breathes hope into the system.

[miokomioko]

Perhaps the value might determine size and possibly altering the shape as well... more confusing now.

Dont see an evolith assigned to him on the giant otherwiki list.

[Wolfknight]

Did Zuug the Shoreleaper and got this not so awesome evolith today:

[miokomioko]

giant otherwiki list is horribly incomplete with the mob list itself

Hunt Registry is a bit better but the data is usually divided between the two.

[Bling]

Judgmental Julika: Inlet
Axe Weaponskill: Double Attack +4
<wind, filled diamond, 5>

And another magic crit from a higher lvl aptant mob.

Chary Akpallu: Mnt. Z
Water Magic: Magic Crit Rate +5
<lightning, empty triangle, 7>

Now if only there was something worthwhile to etch. There's some low level stuff that I've found; seems like they are starting slow like FoV.

Sea Hog: vs Amorphs RATT+7
Voll the Sharkfinned: Water song casting time -2%

Can your friend post a pic? All the weaponskill ones have been downward triangles or diamonds that I've seen, I'd love to see an upward one.

[miokomioko]

I swear, it's always those "friends" that like to contradict all the existing evidence/patterns.

Just killed Sabnock (no drop ofc, TH4 logged round before he popped..)

Took down the elusive, notorious, evil venomfang,
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v7...g?t=1260604716
Evolith - "Club WS: DoubleAttack+4", wind, filled Diamond (5)
NM - Venomfang
Mamook, L-9, Timed-Spawn I think. Easy duo rdm+thf, completely wiffed many chomp-rushes. Nin/Dnc would prolly work.
Scyld Cost: 75, Scyld Reward: 35
Drops: Said by otherwiki to drop Aptant: Tachus(thf/nin/dnc) and Pera(rng/cor)

If this can go up to +7 and could be conveniently attached to the right things, and if only it were for dagger, it'd be great for MercyStroke/Mandalic/SB. Hell, this would be terrific for True Strike club WS, if only it'd let me put it in my Deae Gratia. Gdi.

Also killed Atkorkamuy in Qufim for the thf aptant, easy Rdm+Thf charby-style duo. And killed Sabotender Corrido in Eastern Altep for the same thing. Incredibly easy, no 1000-needles even, and just perfect dodged during 100-fists (it makes funny sounds when it does this). No drop on any of these of course.

edit: question, if you sign up for an NM and then cancel the hunt, do you lose all the scylds, or get them back? I assume lose, but just wanna double dheck. Also, I found that being out of exp range at the time the NM is killed, means you don't get credit for a hunt, but that seems natural.

[Nishida]

So, that Polearm WS Acc one..most likely caps at 10. I just got a +8 and it's a size 5 Evolith..dude that posted earlier said it could go to a size 6..so I'm assuming that size 6 is +10 Acc.

The problem so far that I have with a lot of the diamond slotted Evoliths is that there aren't a lot of good weapons you can put them on aside from the Aern Weapons. Have there been any reports of Diamond etchings showing up on armor? Or is it just weapons only? Also, SE should have made these Aptants 100% drop rate or at least bumped them up a bit.
