Piping Paradox

[Tact]

Ok, here's what's happening: I have a Viridia RAmarl who already has a God/Power, but I want to grab two or three more for myself. I know I'm looking at a lot of piping, but I've got two choices for God/Power: Vhard Pouilly, or Ultimate Mil Lily. I have access to both, but I'm wondering which enemy is easier and/or less lethal to pipe for to grab the other God/Powers.

i'd go for mil lillies you get more exp and they don't take that long to pipe er atleast not for me.But piping for slimes is soooooooo annoying just ask antimony.

Thanks, then. I'm already trying piping lilies, and it worked once.

Go pipe for 9 lilies in the quest of Waterfall Tears, it's much easier and faster than those sneaky little slimes.

That does work, but I'd need a crapload of EDK. And I just don't have the equipment for that.

I already have a Shield of Delsaber, but would I find the Resist/Darks in Ultimate?

to be honest, most people over rate the importance of EDK. if you are using telepipes on a button, you can pipe down and away before they get a chance to do anything. if you think youre taking too long but havent got a decent look yet, pack some gi/razonde/rafoie to hit em all at once and stop em from firing. or you could always place your pipe outside the door to the room...

I pick up resist darks all the time. Start checking the boxes and you'll pick them up fairly fast.

When hunting mils, running caves or running temple, I usually equip 4 Devil Resists (I keep a couple extra for friends), Delsaber's Shield (not sexy, but effective) and Brightness Circle = 100 EDK.

I can calmly wade through a field of lilies and not worry about the purple stuff. It's kind of fun watching everyone's name go red - except yours - and that's when you pick up the red box - and then you revive your fallen teammates - yeah, that's fun.


As for DarthSaber's suggestion, that works too. I just happen to like the EDK.

Good point there. I don't use Ryuker on a hotkey, so I might as well put the thing outside the door. By the way, when I do spot a Mil, I do have a pretty good Shot, but should I use a multihit tech instead?

[Sitka]

Yes.

Problem with a shot is by the time you fire off at the lilies in front of you, the ones behind you gottcha!

A high level razonde, on the other hand, keeps everything at bay until you can maneuver a bit.

Of course, if you have 100EDK, it doesn't fucking matter, does it!

[Tact]

Thanks for the advice, everybody. I don't know whather to go with the multihit tech approach, or the EDK approach.

[Sitka]

Why not try both and see what feels right for you?

Good Luck!

That's exactly what I'm doing. Anna, get back here...

[Linear88s]

Well, what I suggest is getting some Resist/Devil. I think it is a whole lot better than Resist/Dark. I already have 2 Resist/Devils. So go looking in the ruins for it on hard mode.

[cHaOsMaZtA]

Whichever way you go with, you should bring scape dolls. Its never fun dying by a rare enemy after all that hard work piping for one.

That'll be easy. I have about 70+ Scape Dolls in my Check Room nook/cranny/niche.

I think you only need 60 EDK for megid to not work on you at all (lilly megid that is). Even if you only have 50 EDK most of the time you will nt be killed by it if your hit.

It is 64 EDK. But that is only for Ob Lily Megid.

If there is a Mil Lily around, all Megid in that room can go up to level 30 (so you need 100 EDK). Each Megid spit is a random level.

Its only 58 edk offline, ketchup. and thats where piping is done.

I thought 58 was for Hildetorrs. Hmmm... I'll have to try that sometime.

But anyway, the only way to be 100% sure of Mil Lily (and surrounding Ob Lily) Megid is 100 EDK.
