= Overview = A holder page for all my experiments. Yup.

Giant Spider XP experiment
Once again, due to a XP change, this experiment is void. --RedUp 15:10, 2 February 2008 (MST) I will be recording the experience I get from Giant Spiders over ten full 40 BP runs. I will attempt to find the average of each run in gold and XP. Note that I am using a Demonic Sword and no magic whatsoever. All skills are maxed out.

Conclusion: I averaged out at 132 gold and 251 XP per 40 BP run. I encourage everyone to keep records of this and compare between each other, as this can be vital information. DONE.

Barriers of Trust and EPB
As of the new update, this experiment is null and void. --RedUp 13:59, 6 January 2008 (MST)

This project is going to find out how many Barriers of Trust you have to cast in order to get an Extremely powerful barrier. This project will also research how many Destroy Barriers you will have to cast in order to take down an EPB. Note that the EPB will be minimal, and we will stop casting Barrier of Trust when it hits Extremely powerful. Also note that we are casting BoT with Focus Defense.

Results: In order to get the EPB, I needed eight casts. This is WITH Focus defense, so you would need sixteen without it! Remember, this is also the minimal EPB.

Now, in order to take down the equivalent of one Barrier of Trust cast (assuming said caster has focus defense) you would need four Destroy Barriers. Going back to the results I had seven casts. Doing some simple math (8 * 4) leads me to believe you need 32 Destroy Barriers to take down this minimal EPB.

I believe this research shows how much we need a Destroy Barrier boosting skill. Even something like a "Focus Attack" skill would be nice, which would boost the skill from taking out around 45 minutes to around an hour and a half. I think this would balance out the game system and barriers won't be the main form of hiding.

THANKS TO: StageMonkey for all the help!

DONE!
