==Occurrences==
*Loot drop rolls only occur after clearing a [[battle]] round (with the exception of power-ups, which drop immediately after defeating a monster). There is a maximum of 1 drop per defeated monster.
*Guaranteed drops occur after clearing [[Random Encounter]]s, [[Ring of Blood]], and [[Arena]] challenges in addition to the last round's normal drop chances.
*For [[trophies]], the drop is guaranteed except in the non-final rounds of the level 225+ [[Arena#Arena_Challenges|arena challenges]] where it is a static 10% chance.

===Limits===
Playing a large number of rounds at lower [[difficulties]] in any [[battle mode]] reduces the drop rate from monsters for a period of time. This begins after 1,000 rounds and reaches maximum effect after 2,000 rounds. The reduction caps at 75% for Normal, 50% for Hard and 25% for Nightmare. This applies to ALL drops besides [[Arena]]/[[Ring of Blood]] clear bonus drops. The round counter cools down at a rate of 1 per minute (out of combat only).

==[[Credits]]==
Credits can only drop from monsters that did not drop anything else; '''however''', the credit drop chance is static (~20%?) and is '''not''' affected by anything (e.g. increasing Scavenger does not negatively impact credit drop chance in any significant way).

Loot Drop Rolls

Ewq23: /* Loot Rolls */

Experience Points

2013-06-18T02:03:47Z

Ewq23: /* Formula */

Experience points (EXP) are what increases the player's [[Leveling Up|Henjutsu Level]]. In the [[HentaiVerse]], EXP can be used to increase a player's [[Character_Stats#Primary Attributes|Primary Attributes]].

[[Image:Point.png]] '''Receiving 0 EXP gains means having low [[Stamina]]; wait a full day before battling.'''

==Sources==
*Through victories against monster [[battles]].
**The amount is dependent on several factors [[#Monsters|listed below]].
**Players must complete the [[battle]] round to receive the reward.
*During the [[Dawn of a New Day]] event.
**Always gives at most 5% of the required EXP for the next [[level]]. The actual amount is affected by the forum posting bonus ([[#Ways to Affect EXP Gains|see below]]).
**Players must visit the E-Hentai [http://e-hentai.org front page] or the [[Galleries]] to trigger the event.

==Monsters==
The EXP reward from killing a monster is a base of ???, further modified by:
* Its [[Battles#Monster_Side|level]]. (Stated next to its name)
* Its [[Monster_Lab#Monster_Stats_&_Power_Level|Power Level]] (as (1 + PL / 200)).
* Item [[quality]], for battles in the [[Item World]].

==Ways to Affect EXP Gains==
Amounts in red are decreases as opposed to increases.

==Formula==
An '''estimated''' formula for calculating EXP bonuses:

==== limit ====
EXP cap at 100 billion at daily gain

==Avoiding EXP==
Players who wish to avoid EXP gains may do the following:
*Die or [[Skills#Universal_Skills|flee]] from battles
*Keep [[Stamina]] below 10 (note that this prevents '''any''' gains from [[combat]])

HentaiVerse Advice

2013-06-02T06:21:22Z

Ewq23: /* Ring of Blood Strategies */

''This page is for general HentaiVerse advice.''
[[Image:Point.png]] '''''Some information is obsolete as of patch 0.76'''''

==Very Important [[HentaiVerse_Hotkeys|Hotkey]]!==
'''If you want to get an [[equipment]]'s link, mouse over it and press 'c'.'''
*Make sure your Caps Lock is off and enable popups for your browser.

==Pre-Level 50==
Keep [[stats]] balanced, do not invest in a build unless you are certain. Determine which play style you think best suits you.

'''[[#Mage|Mages]]''': [[Weapon]] should be Ebony/Redwood staff of Focus. Armor choice should be "of the Elementalist".

'''[[#Melee|Melees]]''': Weapon should be "of Balance" if you have problem with accuracy. You can use "of Slaughter" on main-hand if you're using [[Fighting_Styles#Dual_Wielding|Dual-Wield]]/[[Fighting_Styles#One-Handed|One-Handed]].

==Picking Your Role==
(See [[Play Styles]] and [[Fighting Styles]])

It's generally not recommended to pursue both paths before lv. 250 as you don't have sufficient ability points to cover both the necessary offensive spells (for maging) and overcharge (for meleeing).

===Mage===
*Use cloth armor and staffs only.
*Can cast spells of every [[damage type]] except [[Void]].
*Can cast AoE spells which can hit multiple monsters on the field.
*Can take advantage of [[Spells#Status_Effects|elemental explosions]].
*Are most vulnerable to attacks.
*Do not need to deal with [[interference]].

===Melee===
====Light Armor====
*Medium mitigation, [[burden]] and [[interference]].
*Has variants which increase mitigation and evade/attack damage/remove burden (Shade armor).

====Heavy Armor====
*Highest mitigation, but also more [[burden]] and [[interference]].
*Has a variant which increases attack damage (power armor).

====1H====
*Can use [[shields]] for extra block chance but have to deal with more [[burden]] and [[interference]].
*Can further boost block chance via Shielding [[prefix|prefixed]] armor.
*Overwhelming Strike to increase damage, accuracy and parry chance.

====DW====
*Highest damage vs. single targets. Good for high [[difficulty]] [[Ring of Blood]] and legendary [[Arenas]].
*Can take advantage of 2 [[Equipment Procs|procs]] (e.g. stun and penetrated armor) with offhand strikes.
*The final [[fighting skill]] can hit multiple targets.

====2H====
*Domino Strike has the chance to hit multiple targets.
**Thus easiest to apply procs on multiple monsters.

====Niten====
*Usable only by equipping a Katana in mainhand and a Wakizashi in offhand.
*Have partial benefits from 2H and DW.
**Domino Strike limited to 5 monsters.
**Offhand damage but no parry bonus.
*For very new players (below lv. 100) or advanced (above Lv. 300) players only.
**Does NOT give any weapon [[proficiency]] and can hit at most 5 targets.

==Regardless of Build==
The following are universal regardless of whether you choose a melee or a mage build.

===[[Abilities]]===
*'''Top priority''' goes toward all HP tanks followed by MP tanks.
*Next highest should be armor and weapon abilities.
*Invest into SP tanks only if you're melee or once you start using Spark of Life.
*Do NOT invest into abilities you do not actively use (e.g. Holy/Dark abilities if you use only Elemental). AP consumed counts across all equipment sets.

==Mage Builds==
===Mage Weapon===
*EDB-suffix or Destruction staff. High MDB or EDB for the elements you use.
**Preferably ebony/redwood if using elemental spells, Katalox if using holy/dark spells
**Oak if you primarily use holy spells.
**Redwood as a cheap alternative for new players.
**MDB > EDB = Prof. Proc chance and duration preferably be 30-40%, 3-4 effective turns. The use of EDB/prof depends on the amount of EDB bonus you have.

===Mage Armor===
*Phase gear of the element you use. With a [[prefix]] if you can get it.
**Proficiency Gossamers (Demon-fiend, Heaven-sent, or Elementalist) can be used when you have insufficient funds, but less recommended as you get higher in proficiency.
*EDB > PAB = Evade, generally speaking; AGI is the preferred additional PAB after INT and WIS.

===Mage Stats===
(Does not include stats from [[equipment]])

{|class="wikitable"
!Stat
!Equal to
!Priority
|-
|STR || Level * ~0.8 || Lowest
|-
|DEX || Level * ~0.9 || Low
|-
|AGI || Level * ~0.9 || Low-Mid
|-
|END || Level + a bit || Mid
|-
|INT || Level + a bit || High
|-
|WIS || Level + a bit || High
|}

===Mage Abilities===
Depending on [[difficulty]] you want to play it can be 2 directions of distribution. In lower difficulties, maximize the offensive-related abilities such as Cloth Spellcrit and offensive spells. Starting from Lv.165 if you want to play on IWBTH, especially random encounters, invest in defensive-related abilities are very important; Weaken enhancements, Health Pot upgrades are very helpful for survival.

==Melee Builds==
===Melee Weapon===
*2H: Mace/Estoc "of Slaughter". High ADB and proc chance/duration.
**Ethereal versions of above at higher levels.
*DW: Club/Axe on mainhand and Rapier on offhand. Preferably with "of Slaughter" suffix (high weapon damage) for mainhand weapon and "of Nimble/Balance" suffix (high parry chance/accuracy) for offhand weapon.

===Melee Armor===
*Leather "of Protection" or Shade "of Fleet/Shadowdancer" gear for light melee. "Agile" [[prefix]] if you can get it.
*Plate and Power armor for heavy melee. Preferably with "of Protection", "of Barrier", "of Balance" or "of Slaughter" suffix. "Mithril" [[prefix]] if you can get it.

===Accuracy===
*Should have around 100%+ accuracy before level 200 to ensure the attacks won't miss.
*Should aim for 150%+ accuracy after level 200 against high PL custom monsters that have high evasion.

===Melee Stats===
(Does not include stats from [[equipment]])

{|class="wikitable"
!Stat
!Equal to
!Priority
|-
|STR || Level + a bit || High
|-
|DEX || Level || Mid-high
|-
|AGI || Level + a bit || Mid
|-
|END || Level + a bit || High
|-
|INT || Level * ~0.8 || Lowest
|-
|WIS || Level || Mid
|}

==Leveling Adjustments==
When you progress in level, you'll start facing monsters of increased Power Level, mostly above PL 400 (thus with powerful spirit attacks). As a result, most of the fights will be significantly more difficult. There's a few adjustments you can do:
*Lower your [[difficulty]] setting until you get accustomed to the new monsters.
*Get better [[equipment]] (especially a better [[weapon]]).
*Utilize your [[scrolls]] and deprecating spells such as Weaken, Silence, and Imperil.
*Understand [[Monster_Lab_Bestiary|which monsters]] are more difficult to deal with and their strengths/weaknesses.
*For melee players, use [[Skills#Innate_Skills|Focus]] as it replenishes mana and helps to land deprecating spells on monsters at the same time.
*It may be wise to invest in an [[Innate Arcana]] slot if you haven't already.

==[[Equipment]]==
Principles for worthy equipments, in order of importance:
# Suitability to the playing style. (Refer to [[Equipment Ranges]] for max/min base values)
#* High weapon damage (''of Slaughter'') for main-hand one-handed weapons (Club, Axe) and two-handed weapons
#* High parry chance for off-hand weapons (Rapier, Dagger, Wakizashi)
#**Alternatively, high attack accuracy so proc will appear more often
#* High chance/duration/damage for [[Equipment_Procs|procs]] (bleeding, stun, penetrated armor, [[Fighting_Styles#Staff|ether tap]])
#* High MDB/EDB for staffs (Katalox)
#* High EDB for Phases
#* High evade/ADB for Shade, high crit rate for ''of Shadowdancer'' suffix
#* High mitigation (''of protection'') for Kevlar, Plate, and Power armor
#* High block rate for [[Shield_(Equipment)|shields]] and shielding prefixed armor
#* High ADB for Power armor ''of Slaughter''
# [[Ethereal]] weapons
#* Rare and worth more than normal equips because of [[void]] damage
# Rarity
#* Rare equips: scythe, Wakizashi, Katana, Katalox staff, Phase, Shade, Power
#* Common equips: Axe, Club, Rapier, Mace, Estoc, Gossamer, Kevlar
#* Very common equips: Dagger, Shortsword, Longsword, Oak, Willow, Redwood, Cotton, Leather, Plate
# [[Equipment#Prefixes|Prefix]]
#* Better quality produces better equips
# Primary Attribute Bonuses
#* Make sure the equips have the best PAB for specific styles!
#** INT/WIS for mage build.
#** STR/END/DEX for melee build.

==[[Items]]==
*'''Utilize your potions. They're meant to be used, not for collection.'''
**For [[Items#Restoratives|potions]], save weaker ones for [[Combat#Recovering|recovering out of combat]] and use stronger ones (preferably Heroic) for [[Character_Menu#Battle_Items|recovering in combat]].
*Save all [[Tokens|Tokens of Blood]] after clearing each round of [[Ring of Blood]] challenge once. After that use them exclusively to fight TT&T.
*If [[trophies]] are your target, clear through higher-level (225+) [[arenas]] on Normal [[difficulty]]. Trophy [[drop rates]] do not change based on [[difficulty]] setting.

==[[Monster Lab]]==
*Make 1-2 monsters and get them to a fair [[PL]] (100+) before making any others. If you have enough [[crystals]] and [[food]] coming in then feel free to make more.
*Do not increase the INT of any monsters without magical attacks unless it is to inflate their PL.
*Don't try to get happy pills instead of [[crystals]] until you have really strong monsters.
*For [[Monster_Lab#Chaos_Upgrades|Chaos Upgrades]]: Scavenging > Fortitude > Swiftness > Brutality > Dissipation > (Everything Else)
**Remember that all chaos upgrades slow a monster's [[morale]] drain rate.
*You can check for gifts as often as you want but remember that it takes at least 1 hour for new gifts to appear and weaker monsters likely won't have them that frequently.
**Remember that monsters who haven't given you a gift in over 3 days will not lose morale until they give you one.
*Remember to name your monsters' [[Monster_Lab#Skill_Editor|special attacks]] or they won't be used in [[combat]].
*Do not use food if it says it will restore less than 2,000 hunger; same with Pills restoring less than 6,000 morale. This is wasteful.

==[[Hath Perks]]==
Resplendent Regeneration -> Effluent Ether -> Vigorous Vitality -> Suffusive Spirit

===[[Crystal]] Perks===
Plausible if you play tons of rounds.

===[[Innate Arcana]]===
Common selection:
*1st: Haste
*2nd: Shadow Veil/Protection

Shadow Veil/Protection can be substituted with Spark of Life or Spirit Shield when you're playing on high [[difficulty]]. However, remember that putting SoL and SS on IA has risks since they can dissipate if you fall below 10% mana. SoL will '''not''' be recast if you are below 25% and it is triggered.

<div id="God Strategies"></div>
==[[Ring of Blood]] Strategies==
*Universal: Weaken, Slow, Imperil, Silence. If you don't have silence, keep Spark (or Spirit Shield with over 50% health) and Haste up at all times. Shadow Veil is also good, but is not a must.
*Mages:
**Armor: Use those which boosts your damage in specific element. Heimdall for FSM, Fenrir for IPU.
**Weapon: Preferably a Destruction staff with high magical damage bonus. EDB/prof staff is acceptable. High ether theft duration/chance is always a plus.
**Strategy: Use the strongest spells of the damage type(s) matching the weakness(es) of the opponent. You can also use infusions to raise the spell's power.
*Melee:
**Armor: Preferably mitigation armor with high mitigation bonus. Usual armor is also okay, but you'll receive more damage.
**Weapon(s): Void weapon is recommended (either [[ethereal]] weapon or use a voidseeker [[shard]]). For Dual Wield a club for Main Hand and a rapier as Off-hand. For two-handed, either a mace or estoc. Use the weapon with highest weapon damage.
**Strategy: Just beware of the health left. Always keep Silence on.

==Grinding [[Proficiencies]]==
Proficiency grinding is needed for deprecating, supportive and curative proficiency only if they are below 50-75% of your level. Most of the time offensive (weapon, spell) proficiency don't need to be ground as they should be close to your level. When grinding magic proficiencies it is recommended to use a weapon with as much mana conservation as possible.
*'''Weapons''' - Go into a high [[difficulty]] [[Quality|crude]] equipment's [[Item World]] and go for as long as you can.
*'''Armors, Elemental''' - Same as above but on Normal [[difficulty]].
**Remember that you still gain armor proficiency when you evade so there's no harm in using Shadow Veil, etc.
**Do not use Haste when training Armor; you want monsters to attack you as often as possible.
*'''Supportive''' - Spam Cure.
*'''Deprecating''' - Spam Weaken.
*'''Divine''' - Spam Smite.
*'''Forbidden''' - Spam Corruption.

==[[Trophies]]==
*Since the equipment stats are [[Level_Scaling|scaled to your level]], you can turn these in for equipment or sell them any time you want. There is no real point in holding them.

==[[Training]]==
*Train Adept Learner to ~100-150.
*Train [[Ability]] Boost as much as possible unless you have no more active abilities to upgrade.
*Train Pack Rat as your item consumption dictates. Same goes for And A Scholar and Tincture.
*Train 2-4 ranks of Assimilator if you are power-leveling. If you've reached the proficiency cap in anything then don't train it further.
*Keep Scavenger, Archaeologist, LotD, and Quartermaster balanced cost-wise.
*Misc Posting does nothing for you in HV.
*Set Collector isn't useful until much later on (when you have enough equipments and want to try different play styles).

==The [[Forge]]==
*Do NOT spend materials on upgrades it unless you have amazing pieces of equipment, especially if it requires a rare material.
*Salvage high quality tier 1 equipment only if its bazaar sale value is worse than the possible material would be.

|}

==Leveling Adjustments==
When you progress in level, you'll start facing monsters of increased Power Level, mostly above PL 400 (thus with powerful spirit attacks). As a result, most of the fights will be significantly more difficult. There's a few adjustments you can do:
*Lower your [[difficulty]] setting until you get accustomed to the new monsters.
*Get better [[equipment]] (especially a better [[weapon]]).
*Utilize your [[scrolls]] and deprecating spells such as Weaken, Silence, and Imperil.
*Understand [[Monster_Lab_Bestiary|which monsters]] are more difficult to deal with and their strengths/weaknesses.
*For melee players, use [[Skills#Innate_Skills|Focus]] as it replenishes mana and helps to land deprecating spells on monsters at the same time.
*It may be wise to invest in an [[Innate Arcana]] slot if you haven't already.

==[[Equipment]]==
Principles for worthy equipments, in order of importance:
# Suitability to the playing style. (Refer to [[Equipment Ranges]] for max/min base values)
#* High weapon damage (''of Slaughter'') for main-hand one-handed weapons (Club, Axe) and two-handed weapons
#* High parry chance for off-hand weapons (Rapier, Dagger, Wakizashi)
#**Alternatively, high attack accuracy so proc will appear more often
#* High chance/duration/damage for [[Equipment_Procs|procs]] (bleeding, stun, penetrated armor, [[Fighting_Styles#Staff|ether tap]])
#* High MDB/EDB for staffs (Katalox)
#* High EDB for Phases
#* High evade/ADB for Shade, high crit rate for ''of Shadowdancer'' suffix
#* High mitigation (''of protection'') for Kevlar, Plate, and Power armor
#* High block rate for [[Shield_(Equipment)|shields]] and shielding prefixed armor
#* High ADB for Power armor ''of Slaughter''
# [[Ethereal]] weapons
#* Rare and worth more than normal equips because of [[void]] damage
# Rarity
#* Rare equips: scythe, Wakizashi, Katana, Katalox staff, Phase, Shade, Power
#* Common equips: Axe, Club, Rapier, Mace, Estoc, Gossamer, Kevlar
#* Very common equips: Dagger, Shortsword, Longsword, Oak, Willow, Redwood, Cotton, Leather, Plate
# [[Equipment#Prefixes|Prefix]]
#* Better quality produces better equips
# Primary Attribute Bonuses
#* Make sure the equips have the best PAB for specific styles!
#** INT/WIS for mage build.
#** STR/END/DEX for melee build.

==[[Items]]==
*'''Utilize your potions. They're meant to be used, not for collection.'''
**For [[Items#Restoratives|potions]], save weaker ones for [[Combat#Recovering|recovering out of combat]] and use stronger ones (preferably Heroic) for [[Character_Menu#Battle_Items|recovering in combat]].
*Save all [[Tokens|Tokens of Blood]] after clearing each round of [[Ring of Blood]] challenge once. After that use them exclusively to fight TT&T.
*If [[trophies]] are your target, clear through higher-level (225+) [[arenas]] on Normal [[difficulty]]. Trophy [[drop rates]] do not change based on [[difficulty]] setting.

==[[Monster Lab]]==
*Make 1-2 monsters and get them to a fair [[PL]] (100+) before making any others. If you have enough [[crystals]] and [[food]] coming in then feel free to make more.
*Do not increase the INT of any monsters without magical attacks unless it is to inflate their PL.
*Don't try to get happy pills instead of [[crystals]] until you have really strong monsters.
*For [[Monster_Lab#Chaos_Upgrades|Chaos Upgrades]]: Scavenging > Fortitude > Swiftness > Brutality > Dissipation > (Everything Else)
**Remember that all chaos upgrades slow a monster's [[morale]] drain rate.
*You can check for gifts as often as you want but remember that it takes at least 1 hour for new gifts to appear and weaker monsters likely won't have them that frequently.
**Remember that monsters who haven't given you a gift in over 3 days will not lose morale until they give you one.
*Remember to name your monsters' [[Monster_Lab#Skill_Editor|special attacks]] or they won't be used in [[combat]].

==[[Hath Perks]]==
Resplendent Regeneration -> Effluent Ether -> Vigorous Vitality -> Suffusive Spirit

===[[Crystal]] Perks===
Plausible if you play tons of rounds.

===[[Innate Arcana]]===
Common selection:
*1st: Haste
*2nd: Shadow Veil/Protection

Shadow Veil/Protection can be substituted with Spark of Life or Spirit Shield when you're playing on high [[difficulty]]. However, remember that putting SoL and SS on IA has risks since they can dissipate if you fall below 10% mana. SoL will '''not''' be recast if you are below 25% and it is triggered.

<div id="God Strategies"></div>
==[[Ring of Blood]] Strategies==
*Universal: Weaken, Slow, Imperil, Silence. If you don't have silence, keep Spark (or Spirit Shield with over 50% health) and Haste up at all times. Shadow Veil is also good, but is not a must.
*Mages:
**Armor: Use those which boosts your damage in specific element. Heaven-sent/Heimdall for FSM, Demon-fiend/Fenrir for IPU.
**Weapon: Preferably a Destruction staff with high magical damage bonus. EDB/prof staff is acceptable. High ether theft duration/chance is always a plus.
**Strategy: Use the strongest spells of the damage type(s) matching the weakness(es) of the opponent. You can also use infusions to raise the spell's power.
*Melee:
**Armor: Preferably mitigation armor with high mitigation bonus. Usual armor is also okay, but you'll receive more damage.
**Weapon(s): Void weapon is recommended (either [[ethereal]] weapon or use a voidseeker [[shard]]). For Dual Wield a club for Main Hand and a rapier as Off-hand. For two-handed, either a mace or estoc. Use the weapon with highest weapon damage.
**Strategy: Just beware of the health left. Always keep Silence on.

==Grinding [[Proficiencies]]==
Proficiency grinding is needed for deprecating, supportive and curative proficiency only if they are below 50-75% of your level. Most of the time offensive (weapon, spell) proficiency don't need to be ground as they should be close to your level. When grinding magic proficiencies it is recommended to use a weapon with as much mana conservation as possible.
*'''Weapons''' - Go into a high [[difficulty]] [[Quality|crude]] equipment's [[Item World]] and go for as long as you can.
*'''Armors, Elemental''' - Same as above but on Normal [[difficulty]].
**Remember that you still gain armor proficiency when you evade so there's no harm in using Shadow Veil, etc.
**Do not use Haste when training Armor; you want monsters to attack you as often as possible.
*'''Supportive''' - Spam Cure.
*'''Deprecating''' - Spam Weaken.
*'''Divine''' - Spam Smite.
*'''Forbidden''' - Spam Corruption.

==[[Trophies]]==
*Since the equipment stats are [[Level_Scaling|scaled to your level]], you can turn these in for equipment or sell them any time you want. There is no real point in holding them.

==[[Training]]==
*Train Adept Learner to ~100-150.
*Train [[Ability]] Boost as much as possible unless you have no more active abilities to upgrade.
*Train Pack Rat as your item consumption dictates. Same goes for And A Scholar and Tincture.
*Train 2-4 ranks of Assimilator if you are power-leveling. If you've reached the proficiency cap in anything then don't train it further.
*Keep Scavenger, Archaeologist, LotD, and Quartermaster balanced cost-wise.
*Misc Posting does nothing for you in HV.
*Set Collector isn't useful until much later on (when you have enough equipments and want to try different play styles).

==The [[Forge]]==
*Do NOT spend materials on upgrades it unless you have amazing pieces of equipment, especially if it requires a rare material.
*Salvage high quality tier 1 equipment only if its bazaar sale value is worse than the possible material would be.

HentaiVerse Advice

2013-05-28T03:15:58Z

Ewq23: /* Mage Abilities */

''This page is for general HentaiVerse advice.''
[[Image:Point.png]] '''''Some information is obsolete as of patch 0.76'''''

==Very Important [[HentaiVerse_Hotkeys|Hotkey]]!==
'''If you want to get an [[equipment]]'s link, mouse over it and press 'c'.'''
*Make sure your Caps Lock is off and enable popups for your browser.

==Pre-Level 50==
Keep [[stats]] balanced, do not invest in a build unless you are certain. Determine which play style you think best suits you.

'''[[#Mage|Mages]]''': [[Weapon]] should be Ebony/Redwood staff of Focus. Armor choice should be "of the Elementalist".

'''[[#Melee|Melees]]''': Weapon should be "of Balance" if you have problem with accuracy. You can use "of Slaughter" on main-hand if you're using [[Fighting_Styles#Dual_Wielding|Dual-Wield]]/[[Fighting_Styles#One-Handed|One-Handed]].

==Picking Your Role==
(See [[Play Styles]] and [[Fighting Styles]])

It's generally not recommended to pursue both paths before lv. 250 as you don't have sufficient ability points to cover both the necessary offensive spells (for maging) and overcharge (for meleeing).

===Mage===
*Use cloth armor and staffs only.
*Can cast spells of every [[damage type]] except [[Void]].
*Can cast AoE spells which can hit multiple monsters on the field.
*Can take advantage of [[Spells#Status_Effects|elemental explosions]].
*Are most vulnerable to attacks.
*Do not need to deal with [[interference]].

===Melee===
====Light Armor====
*Medium mitigation, [[burden]] and [[interference]].
*Has variants which increase mitigation and evade/attack damage/remove burden (Shade armor).

====Heavy Armor====
*Highest mitigation, but also more [[burden]] and [[interference]].
*Has a variant which increases attack damage (power armor).

====1H====
*Can use [[shields]] for extra block chance but have to deal with more [[burden]] and [[interference]].
*Can further boost block chance via Shielding [[prefix|prefixed]] armor.
*Overwhelming Strike to increase damage, accuracy and parry chance.

====DW====
*Highest damage vs. single targets. Good for high [[difficulty]] [[Ring of Blood]] and legendary [[Arenas]].
*Can take advantage of 2 [[Equipment Procs|procs]] (e.g. stun and penetrated armor) with offhand strikes.
*The final [[fighting skill]] can hit multiple targets.

====2H====
*Domino Strike has the chance to hit multiple targets.
**Thus easiest to apply procs on multiple monsters.

====Niten====
*Usable only by equipping a Katana in mainhand and a Wakizashi in offhand.
*Have partial benefits from 2H and DW.
**Domino Strike limited to 5 monsters.
**Offhand damage but no parry bonus.
*For very new players (below lv. 100) or advanced (above Lv. 300) players only.
**Does NOT give any weapon [[proficiency]] and can hit at most 5 targets.

==Regardless of Build==
The following are universal regardless of whether you choose a melee or a mage build.

===[[Abilities]]===
*'''Top priority''' goes toward all HP tanks followed by MP tanks.
*Next highest should be armor and weapon abilities.
*Invest into SP tanks only if you're melee or once you start using Spark of Life.
*Do NOT invest into abilities you do not actively use (e.g. Holy/Dark abilities if you use only Elemental). AP consumed counts across all equipment sets.

==Mage Builds==
===Mage Weapon===
*EDB-suffix or Destruction staff. High MDB or EDB for the elements you use.
**Preferably ebony/redwood if using elemental spells, Katalox if using holy/dark spells
**Oak if you primarily use holy spells.
**Redwood as a cheap alternative for new players.
**MDB > EDB = Prof. Proc chance and duration preferably be 30-40%, 3-4 effective turns. The use of EDB/prof depends on the amount of EDB bonus you have.

===Mage Armor===
*Phase gear of the element you use. With a [[prefix]] if you can get it.
**Proficiency Gossamers (Demon-fiend, Heaven-sent, or Elementalist) can be used when you have insufficient funds, but less recommended as you get higher in proficiency.
*EDB > PAB = Evade, generally speaking; AGI is the preferred additional PAB after INT and WIS.

===Mage Stats===
(Does not include stats from [[equipment]])

{|class="wikitable"
!Stat

!Priority
|-
|STR || Level * ~0.8 || Lowest
|-

|-
|AGI || Level * ~0.9 || Low-Mid
|-
|END || Level + a bit || Mid
|-
|INT || Level + a bit || High
|-
|WIS || Level + a bit || High
|}

===Mage Abilities===
Depend on difficulty you want to play, it can be two directions of distribution. In low difficulty, maximize the offensive related abilities, such as Cloth Spellcrit, offensive spells. Start from Lv.165 if you want to play IWBTH, especiully IWBTH random encounters, deffensive related abilities is very important, deffensive abilities such as weaken enhancements are very helpful for survive.

==Melee Builds==
===Melee Weapon===
*2H: Mace/Estoc "of Slaughter". High ADB and proc chance/duration.
**Ethereal versions of above at higher levels.
*DW: Club/Axe on mainhand and Rapier on offhand. Preferably with "of Slaughter" suffix (high weapon damage) for mainhand weapon and "of Nimble/Balance" suffix (high parry chance/accuracy) for offhand weapon.

===Melee Armor===
*Leather "of Protection" or Shade "of Fleet/Shadowdancer" gear for light melee. "Agile" [[prefix]] if you can get it.
*Plate and Power armor for heavy melee. Preferably with "of Protection", "of Barrier", "of Balance" or "of Slaughter" suffix. "Mithril" [[prefix]] if you can get it.

===Accuracy===
*Should have around 100%+ accuracy before level 200 to ensure the attacks won't miss.
*Should aim for 150%+ accuracy after level 200 against high PL custom monsters that have high evasion.

how about open a column include this info? --[[User:Ewq23|Ewq23]] ([[User talk:Ewq23|talk]]) 03:58, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

I have a strong, strong desire to undo Anomtai's revision. I don't think it adds anything other than the possibility of confusion. Does anyone else have any thoughts on the issue? --[[User:Boggyb|Boggyb]] 05:33, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

You mean that bit about "The previous 17 challenges will still be available"? I don't see a problem with it, and it actually resolves a question I had been pondering. The only thing I find a slight bit confusing is the sudden change in format in the Monster Count for Each Round column from the Trio and the Tree on. --[[User:BradRepko|BradRepko]] 09:07, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

The change might have been sudden, but it didn't look like ass which your change does. That reminds me that we still need to work on that, particularly the plans to use coloring. God knows why I asked for people's opinions instead of just doing it how I wanted. --[[User:Boggyb|Boggyb]] 02:08, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

The monster count edit should be reverted because it looks much worse than it was before. [[User:Razorflame|Razorflame]] 00:44, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Wait? Why the fuck do I even care? I was able to figure it out. Why am I sticking my neck out for the idiots who cannot? Fuck it! Do whatever the hell you want. I'm not going down for this! --[[User:BradRepko|BradRepko]] 03:31, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

== Arena strategies ==

I think that this Wiki's page on arenas would be more complete if one included strategies for arenas, especially the more pivotal ones, including Endgame, To Kill a God, The Trio and the Tree, and then one of the Legendary spawn pool arenas (220+).

I especially believe that strategies for those four arenas would be very helpful to other HentaiVerse players.

What does everyone else think about it?

----

# I don't believe there are any special strategies employed in Endgame, To Kill a God, or the Trio and the Tree (maybe silencing the Tree). You use the strategy you would use to beat a boss/legendary, except you fought a long arena before it. For End of Days, if you can't figure out how to beat it by the time you got there, you are probably too hopeless to be helped. (This is not a shot at any particular member. Unless you think it is, then go ahead)
# I'm not sure you could write a balanced analysis. (i.e. with both strategies for melee and magic).
# I'm not a fan of the homogenized playing strategies the HV forces on people. Writing strategies would simply enhance that.
# I don't feel like writing it. (I mention that because like everything else in the wiki, I'd likely be the one doing it)

this does not true anymore --[[User:Ewq23|Ewq23]] ([[User talk:Ewq23|talk]]) 11:36, 25 May 2013 (UTC)

how about open a column include this info? --[[User:Ewq23|Ewq23]] ([[User talk:Ewq23|talk]]) 03:58, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

Um...I think that's very difficult to calculate this derived stats? [[User:Varst|Varst]] ([[User talk:Varst|talk]]) 08:10, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

==Arena Challenges Chart==

I have a strong, strong desire to undo Anomtai's revision. I don't think it adds anything other than the possibility of confusion. Does anyone else have any thoughts on the issue? --[[User:Boggyb|Boggyb]] 05:33, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

You mean that bit about "The previous 17 challenges will still be available"? I don't see a problem with it, and it actually resolves a question I had been pondering. The only thing I find a slight bit confusing is the sudden change in format in the Monster Count for Each Round column from the Trio and the Tree on. --[[User:BradRepko|BradRepko]] 09:07, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

The change might have been sudden, but it didn't look like ass which your change does. That reminds me that we still need to work on that, particularly the plans to use coloring. God knows why I asked for people's opinions instead of just doing it how I wanted. --[[User:Boggyb|Boggyb]] 02:08, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

The monster count edit should be reverted because it looks much worse than it was before. [[User:Razorflame|Razorflame]] 00:44, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Wait? Why the fuck do I even care? I was able to figure it out. Why am I sticking my neck out for the idiots who cannot? Fuck it! Do whatever the hell you want. I'm not going down for this! --[[User:BradRepko|BradRepko]] 03:31, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

== Arena strategies ==

I think that this Wiki's page on arenas would be more complete if one included strategies for arenas, especially the more pivotal ones, including Endgame, To Kill a God, The Trio and the Tree, and then one of the Legendary spawn pool arenas (220+).

I especially believe that strategies for those four arenas would be very helpful to other HentaiVerse players.

What does everyone else think about it?

----

# I don't believe there are any special strategies employed in Endgame, To Kill a God, or the Trio and the Tree (maybe silencing the Tree). You use the strategy you would use to beat a boss/legendary, except you fought a long arena before it. For End of Days, if you can't figure out how to beat it by the time you got there, you are probably too hopeless to be helped. (This is not a shot at any particular member. Unless you think it is, then go ahead)
# I'm not sure you could write a balanced analysis. (i.e. with both strategies for melee and magic).
# I'm not a fan of the homogenized playing strategies the HV forces on people. Writing strategies would simply enhance that.
# I don't feel like writing it. (I mention that because like everything else in the wiki, I'd likely be the one doing it)

That belongs to the advice section. Also, some may sacrifice some credits for more EXP in longer arenas, which probably means the last few arenas are better for them. [[User:Varst|Varst]] ([[User talk:Varst|talk]]) 05:26, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

--[[User:Destructorspace|Destructorspace]] ([[User talk:Destructorspace|talk]]) 21:03, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

for xp， your table didn't point out a very important thing, only non-deep rounds are worth to do for limited time, that is 1-50 rounds on first 3 legendary arenas, first 25 rounds on last arenas --[[User:Ewq23|Ewq23]] ([[User talk:Ewq23|talk]]) 10:40, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

==About overall stat points distribution ==
since more base sp only hurt mages after a mage have sp shield, should we suggest to people keep sum of all 6 pa low? --[[User:Ewq23|Ewq23]] ([[User talk:Ewq23|talk]]) 08:55, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

No. Think about it: SP shield takes a fixed value to your base SP. It means neither increasing not decreasing your base SP would have any effect on the number of hits you can take. Therefore, it's neither beneficial nor harmful. But then you also need to consider those mages who use Spirit Stance sparingly. Those will benefit from a higher base SP. [[User:Varst|Varst]] ([[User talk:Varst|talk]]) 10:28, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

but spirit regen is slow, more base sp take more time to recover, and when use spark and sp shield, the decreasing speed doesn't change, so, for a pure mage low base sp/sum of pa is a better thing --[[User:Ewq23|Ewq23]] ([[User talk:Ewq23|talk]]) 10:47, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

SP regen is also affected by the total of PAs. Assuming a player with 0 power, 0 SP tanks, no auras and 3000 total PAs. Sacrificing 10% of total PAs will increase the replenish speed (defined by replenishing from 0 SP to full SP) by a mere 1.8%. Sacrificing 50% of total PAs will increase the replenish speed by a mere 14%. Does it really worth to reduce PAs for such a minimal benefit (not to mention the benefits lost from reducing those PAs)?
Besides, having more power (catgirls, high karma) will also have negative effect using the same logic. Have you ever seen anyone with very high power complaining about that? [[User:Varst|Varst]] ([[User talk:Varst|talk]]) 11:12, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

i mean, if a mage keep xp consume with str:end in ratio 1:4, and other pa are all different values, it is better than a mage who have all 6 pa in same value(lower base sp) --[[User:Ewq23|Ewq23]] ([[User talk:Ewq23|talk]]) 11:19, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

Ans the question is, how much? As I've said, 10% less PAs and your SP regen increase by 1.8%, and it has no benefit to the actual SP shield consumption. And 10% less PA is quite a lot actually.(allocating XP in your way will give an amount of PA change less than 10%). Whether or not it's better to unbalance the stat is another question, but in terms of SP the effect is just minimal. [[User:Varst|Varst]] ([[User talk:Varst|talk]]) 11:46, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

my current base sp is 318, if i redistribute pa, i might have base sp less than 300. Also this issue is about direction, even the benifit is small, when people goes wrong direction, they centainy lose utility, not gain --[[User:Ewq23|Ewq23]] ([[User talk:Ewq23|talk]]) 12:34, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

==About AGI and INT for mages ==

Think about it. While 10 AGI gives a bit of action speed boost, it's dwarfed by the huge action speed multiplier for tier 3/4 offensive spells. And action speed is the same for IWBTH and normal.

And you will eventually get more INT than your level; there's no need to chase after that stat. It's going to lead to very imbalanced stat which is not recommended.

Please note that this is more like a stepstone for players to understand what's more important and what's less important; as many new players strictly follow that, it's better not to write that in such a strict way, but to guide them to understand what's important and what's not. [[User:Varst|Varst]] 05:40, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

*when you spend all remain xp to int and wis, it is going to be waste on xp, so there should be a clear balance poiont on those atributes, to maxiumize every single xp that a player have.

and agi can also come from equipments, the effect of action speed's change is truly noticeable when you just past lv200, it is true that tier 4 spell is extrmely slow, but without any agi from equipment, lv200 to lv220 is like double-hit(with lady 501st, might even be triple hit) hell --[[User:Ewq23|Ewq23]] 08:28, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

==Advice for Brand New Players==
When you first create an account on E-Hentai.org (which also starts your HentaiVerse account), don't do battle in HV for a few days. A completely fresh account starts with 1/50 HP and 0/10 MP, requiring that you wait quite a while for your HP and MP to regen to full. Instead, let the [[Dawn of a New Day]] event give you at least enough [[EXP]] to reach [[Ranks#Beginner|Level 1]], which should take 2 days.

Once you're Level 1, you'll have an [[Aura|Aura Point]] and an [[Abilities|Ability Point]]. Spend your Ability Point on Aura Slot 1 (the ability on the farthest right), and then spend your Aura Point on Green Aura. Green Aura will prevent 2 points of damage from every physical attack made against you. At the lowest levels, most monsters deal just about 2 damage per attack, so you'll take little to no damage for several levels.

With your Ability and Aura set up, it's time to buy some [[HentaiVerse#Stats|Primary Stats]] with your EXP. Depending on which of the [[Fighting Styles]] you choose to focus on, you'll eventually change your stat balance, but for now, you'll want to keep each of your stats equally balanced.

==Advice for Novice Players==
This [http://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=21824 forum thread] is a good place to learn some more advanced tips and techniques for playing HV.
*Extra credits
**If you have an Internet connection that qualifies, start an Hentai@Home node. You'll get GP and hath that can be used to get credits or buy special benefits for your character. http://ehwiki.org/wiki/Hath
**If you can't or won't install H@H, then try adopting a server for $10/month. You'll get 90 hath over the month.

**Bit Torrents can also be used to get credits.
**The arena is meant to help kickstart your credits balance. The first time you beat a challenge, you get 10x the credits!
**Sell the armor and weapons that you don't want to the bazaar. The same applies to lower potions when you have tons of the higher ones.

==Advice for Intermediate Players==
*Use HVStat to make the game interface customized.
*Make sure to pump up Max HP/MP using ability boost training. This is usually more effective than filling EXP boost ability slots. Dead people don't get experience!
*Disable autocasting when leveling in an item world at cake difficulty. It's a waste of mana.
*Leveling up the low level crude equipments at IWBTH setting in Item World, for maximum leveling up speed.

==Advice for Experienced Players==
==='''Fighting Bosses/Legendaries/Godlies'''===
This is a short overview of the prevailing strategies for defeating the enemies in the [[Ring of Blood]] and their counterparts at the end of [[Arena]] challenges starting with Endgame. For more information, a place to ask specific questions, and see descriptions of other successful and not so successful attempts, look [http://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=21231 here].

'''Notes''':
*The following strategies are by no means the only strategies for defeating these enemies. They may not even be the best. They are, however, strategies that have been successfully employed and emulated.
*The Bosses and Legendary monsters have extremely powerful spirit attacks, strong enough to one-shot kill most players. One way to prevent instant death is to utilize the [[Spells#Supportive Magic|Spark of Life]] effect, either through casting the spell itself, or using [[Items#Scrolls|Scrolls of the Gods]].
:*Evasion and block from shields can allow players to avoid Spirit attacks.
:*Parry can stop physical Spirit attacks.
:*Resist can stop magical Spirit attacks.
*Each category is split into two subcategories, damage and survival.
:*Damage: discusses how a player should go about dealing damage to the enemy. If you have access to an ethereal weapon, feel free to disregard this.
:*Survival: discusses specific survival strategies for fighting that enemy. However, a player should not necessarily ignore any general survival strategies not mentioned. (e.g. a player who uses haste should not necessarily stop using haste if it isn't mentioned.)

The monsters known as "Bosses" are: ManBearPig, Mithra, White Bunneh, and Dalek. These bosses will appear at the end of Arena challenges starting with Endgame, and will also appear (very rarely) in [[Grindfest]], [[Item World]], and [[Random Encounter]]s.

'''Damage''':
*Because the bosses are somewhat resistant to physical damage and have a large amount of health, players are encouraged to use either piercing or high-[[Equipment Procs|bleed]] slashing weapons.
*A player who is using a piercing weapon should attack the enemy normally, taking special note to use their [[Spirit Attack]] only when Penetrated Armor is in effect, to maximize damage.
*A player who is using a slashing weapon, possibly with an off-hand rapier, should attack normally. Although the damage from poison is unlikely to compare to the damage of bleed if not cast when Penetrated Armor is in effect, players are still suggested to use it for the regeneration reduction it inflicts.
**Using [[Items#Infusions|Infusions]] of the specific type or of Gaia (the latter because of its longer duration) to increase magic damage is an option, but it occupies item slots that might be better used on mana restoratives. Note that there is now a slot for scrolls and another for infusions that ''refills in the middle of a battle''(!) but you still are limited to one type of scroll or infusion for each slot.
*Special items and scrolls
**Bubble gum and flower pots can be used to get the effect of several items in one slot along with a damage bonus. These are really unnecessary unless you're going for a fast kill. For a slow kill, don't bother wasting the credits or time collecting on them.
**2 soul stones and a spirit elixer is also good for a fast kill.
**Scrolls of the Avatar and Gods combine 3 item effects into one item slot.
'''Survival''':
*Players, regardless of their attack style, should keep [[Poison]] in effect on the enemy at all times, because it halves the regen rate of the boss's MP and SP, preventing it from using its very strong special attacks quite so often.
*Due to the high physical damage dealt by all bosses, keeping them Weakened at all times is suggested.
*Unlike the other three bosses, ManBearPig's Spirit Attack is a magical attack (unaffected by Weaken), so keeping him Bewildered is advisable. If one does not yet have access to Bewilder (unlocked at level 70), bringing a Scroll of the Gods, for the double-duration Spark of Life effect (double duration as compared to Scroll of Life), is recommended.

===='''[[HentaiVerse_Bestiary#Legendary|Legendary]] Monsters'''====
====='''Konata & Mikuru Asahina'''=====
Both of these can be defeated using the same strategies employed against the bosses. It is, however, important to note that the leap in difficulty between the bosses and Konata is about the same amount as the leap between Konata and Mikuru, so be prepared to fight a lot harder against Mikuru. Also be sure to keep them both permanently Weakened and Bewildered (or Silenced), as they both have very strong physical and magical attacks.

====='''Ryouko Asakura & Yuki Nagato'''=====
From this point on, the enemies get slightly harder, because they have very high Barrier Rating, making melee attacks significantly weaker than they are against Konata and Mikuru. These two used to be immune to physical damage, but that immunity was removed to balance them against the other two legendaries. Ryouko and Yuki are also extremely resistant to all magical damage except Holy and Soul.

'''Damage''':
(Under Construction- Previous content removed due to changes in mechanics)

'''Survival''':
*It is highly recommended that a player use one or both of Haste and Slow to extend the duration of Penetrated Armor. This will also reduce overall damage taken by letting the player take turns faster than the enemy.
*Ryouko only uses Physical damage attacks, so there's no need to Bewilder her.
*Yuki uses both Physical and Magical damage attacks, so both Weaken and Bewilder should be used. Using Silence is also an option, but because Weaken can't be used with it, Silence is not recommended unless the player has very few AP invested in HP Tank. Even Bewildered, Yuki can deal enough damage with her Spirit Attack to kill a low-HP player in one shot.

==Access speed==
access speed(latency) is the most essential factor to hentaiverse playing, it can be measured by turns/seconds
*for players that have higher than 5 turns/sec speed that is strongly recommended to play in melee style, if the speed higher than 10 turns/sec, full 5 of plate/shield armor is recommended
*for players that have lower than 0.5 turns/sec speed that is strongly recommended to play in mage style, not only mage have higher damage output(which result quicker kill), but also magic prof increase much faster than melee prof

==Real life time usage distribution==
for players that want to experience most designs of hentaiverse should to rush to Lv210 above as quickly as possiable, avoid waste time on arenas(except for the first clear) before Lv150, play in high difficulty(hell and above) as higher as possible

Ewq23: /* About overall stat points distribution */

==About overall stat points distribution ==
since more base sp only hurt mages after a mage have sp shield, should we suggest to people keep sum of all 6 pa low? --[[User:Ewq23|Ewq23]] ([[User talk:Ewq23|talk]]) 08:55, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

No. Think about it: SP shield takes a fixed value to your base SP. It means neither increasing not decreasing your base SP would have any effect on the number of hits you can take. Therefore, it's neither beneficial nor harmful. But then you also need to consider those mages who use Spirit Stance sparingly. Those will benefit from a higher base SP. [[User:Varst|Varst]] ([[User talk:Varst|talk]]) 10:28, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

but spirit regen is slow, more base sp take more time to recover, and when use spark and sp shield, the decreasing speed doesn't change, so, for a pure mage low base sp/sum of pa is a better thing --[[User:Ewq23|Ewq23]] ([[User talk:Ewq23|talk]]) 10:47, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

==About AGI and INT for mages ==

Think about it. While 10 AGI gives a bit of action speed boost, it's dwarfed by the huge action speed multiplier for tier 3/4 offensive spells. And action speed is the same for IWBTH and normal.

And you will eventually get more INT than your level; there's no need to chase after that stat. It's going to lead to very imbalanced stat which is not recommended.

Please note that this is more like a stepstone for players to understand what's more important and what's less important; as many new players strictly follow that, it's better not to write that in such a strict way, but to guide them to understand what's important and what's not. [[User:Varst|Varst]] 05:40, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

*when you spend all remain xp to int and wis, it is going to be waste on xp, so there should be a clear balance poiont on those atributes, to maxiumize every single xp that a player have.

and agi can also come from equipments, the effect of action speed's change is truly noticeable when you just past lv200, it is true that tier 4 spell is extrmely slow, but without any agi from equipment, lv200 to lv220 is like double-hit(with lady 501st, might even be triple hit) hell --[[User:Ewq23|Ewq23]] 08:28, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

==Advice for Brand New Players==
When you first create an account on E-Hentai.org (which also starts your HentaiVerse account), don't do battle in HV for a few days. A completely fresh account starts with 1/50 HP and 0/10 MP, requiring that you wait quite a while for your HP and MP to regen to full. Instead, let the [[Dawn of a New Day]] event give you at least enough [[EXP]] to reach [[Ranks#Beginner|Level 1]], which should take 2 days.

Once you're Level 1, you'll have an [[Aura|Aura Point]] and an [[Abilities|Ability Point]]. Spend your Ability Point on Aura Slot 1 (the ability on the farthest right), and then spend your Aura Point on Green Aura. Green Aura will prevent 2 points of damage from every physical attack made against you. At the lowest levels, most monsters deal just about 2 damage per attack, so you'll take little to no damage for several levels.

With your Ability and Aura set up, it's time to buy some [[HentaiVerse#Stats|Primary Stats]] with your EXP. Depending on which of the [[Fighting Styles]] you choose to focus on, you'll eventually change your stat balance, but for now, you'll want to keep each of your stats equally balanced.

==Advice for Novice Players==
This [http://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=21824 forum thread] is a good place to learn some more advanced tips and techniques for playing HV.
*Extra credits
**If you have an Internet connection that qualifies, start an Hentai@Home node. You'll get GP and hath that can be used to get credits or buy special benefits for your character. http://ehwiki.org/wiki/Hath
**If you can't or won't install H@H, then try adopting a server for $10/month. You'll get 90 hath over the month.
**[http://gu.e-hentai.org/manage.php?act=new Upload a gallery] but make sure to read [http://g.e-hentai.org/help.php#roe posting guidelines] first!
**Bit Torrents can also be used to get credits.
**The arena is meant to help kickstart your credits balance. The first time you beat a challenge, you get 10x the credits!
**Sell the armor and weapons that you don't want to the bazaar. The same applies to lower potions when you have tons of the higher ones.

==Advice for Intermediate Players==
*Use HVStat to make the game interface customized.
*Make sure to pump up Max HP/MP using ability boost training. This is usually more effective than filling EXP boost ability slots. Dead people don't get experience!
*Disable autocasting when leveling in an item world at cake difficulty. It's a waste of mana.
*Leveling up the low level crude equipments at IWBTH setting in Item World, for maximum leveling up speed.

==Advice for Experienced Players==
==='''Fighting Bosses/Legendaries/Godlies'''===
This is a short overview of the prevailing strategies for defeating the enemies in the [[Ring of Blood]] and their counterparts at the end of [[Arena]] challenges starting with Endgame. For more information, a place to ask specific questions, and see descriptions of other successful and not so successful attempts, look [http://forums.e-hentai.org/index.php?showtopic=21231 here].

'''Notes''':
*The following strategies are by no means the only strategies for defeating these enemies. They may not even be the best. They are, however, strategies that have been successfully employed and emulated.
*The Bosses and Legendary monsters have extremely powerful spirit attacks, strong enough to one-shot kill most players. One way to prevent instant death is to utilize the [[Spells#Supportive Magic|Spark of Life]] effect, either through casting the spell itself, or using [[Items#Scrolls|Scrolls of the Gods]].
:*Evasion and block from shields can allow players to avoid Spirit attacks.
:*Parry can stop physical Spirit attacks.
:*Resist can stop magical Spirit attacks.
*Each category is split into two subcategories, damage and survival.
:*Damage: discusses how a player should go about dealing damage to the enemy. If you have access to an ethereal weapon, feel free to disregard this.
:*Survival: discusses specific survival strategies for fighting that enemy. However, a player should not necessarily ignore any general survival strategies not mentioned. (e.g. a player who uses haste should not necessarily stop using haste if it isn't mentioned.)
