2 handed > dual wield in the long run, unless you have two weapons that invoke chaos ball or something.

edit:
Dual wield = less accuracy, multiple attacks that do nothing because of PV.
Two hand = More accuracy, more damage, more damage multiplier.

The mod was meant for 1.22, but since it's the exe that was modified, it shouldn't matter that much. Just extract ELM over a normal installation.

Is there a way to tell your points with a God?
Not without using a Mod/3rd party program.

Anyway, 1) Should I get Dual Wield and uss it instead of 2-handed?
             2) I made palmia go BOOM. After looting the place, how'd I re-karma my karma? Endless       Derphy               quests?
All points into ranged.

You're playing a claymore right? Generally, unless you get weapons that have effects on hit, you'll want to keep training two-hand. You're still fairly early in the game, so it shouldn't hurt too much.

You can buy an indulgence, where the cost scales with your level.

K. Now to run to Noyel, and hope all my money covers it.

I'll bring all my Oracle scrolls to be sure.

Oh, and what's the best weapon material for a sword for me? I'm currently at Diamond, though I could Shainghai it into something else. Same with my equipment which is a mishmash of Rubynus and Grifon Scale.

I usually prefer Rubynus (For MASSIVE hit bonuses) or Diamond (Excels in both areas). I suppose there's also Ether, but it'd make a the two-hand skill useless.

Careful on the way to the nuns though, there are still guards in Noyel and they will kill you on sight.

Yeah, I know.

Should my bell use a 1d6 grenade or 1d18 shuriken? I can shred a lot of things with it.

Grenade = AoE, utter pwnage against groups of enemies.

Shuriken = cut damage, bleed enemies to death, assuming they bleed.

Thank you for all the fish. It was a good run.

Grenade damage is misleading, while thrown duds do deal 1d6 damage (Not including stat/skill damage modifiers); the damage is done by it's effect, which deals sound damage - which very few enemies have resistances against - and the effect itself scales with your throwing skill.

For bells, you generally want to go with pure damage unless you're facing enemies with very high PV. Sure you can stack massive amounts of bleeding damage on a single enemy with a shuriken, but with a bow/gun they could just kill them outright.

Problem is, the bell is retarded and only attacks what i'm attacking. Meaning I get a grenade to the face then wander around dazed, often into the path of another grenade.

And now the etherwind starts, and the nearest shelter is Kapul, i'm in palmia and everyone hates me. Whee!

Wait, the bomber girl gets off on suffering? That's...unexpected.

I know there's no guards in Derphy, I was far away though.

Oh, and is it any use giving the bell a panty, or should I wield it myself?

If you're looking for a replacement for the grenade your bell currently has, a panty should work just fine.

Lucky my bell doesn't care if it's an Ether Panty.

Ether... panty?

Oh dear god what kind of horrible person would make such a thing?

Quote from: Phantom
Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

I changed it from regular.

Oh gods, I can't afford anywhere near the amount. What do I do? I can't make money without being able to get in towns...

Oh, and should  I trade for this 1d56+2 pistol? I heard pistols weren't very good...
