In the future, there would be an expert programmer that specialized in creating virtual training rooms. After paying some money to the Game Company, his training room would be implemented within the game. Players could pay to use this training room. It would correct their posture when using skills, so it was an efficient way to get better technique.
Even the most stupid players could achieve a high Skill Completion in this training room.
Lu Li’s technique and reactions were already about the same as that of the program. None of his teammates were stupid either – Hachi Chan and Remnant Dream were a little naïve, but not stupid.
The battle against Warmaster Voone had come to an end after seven or eight defeats.
This time, there was no gem or skill book. Instead, some powerful Demon Essence was dropped. There were quite a number of Bosses that dropped this item, but it was quite widely used so there was no fear that no one would buy it.
The next item that dropped was an equipment.
There was no gem or skill book, so Lu Li had reason to believe that there would be five pieces of equipment this time.
The first item was Gold and so was the second. Lu Li just couldn’t remain calm anymore. Obviously, it wasn’t a guarantee that obtaining the First Clear at Nightmare Difficulty would yield Epic equipment, but it should have been dropping Dark Gold equipment at least.
Finally, on their third try, they received a Dark Gold Hunter item.
Remnant Dream compared this item to the one she already had, and helplessly stuffed it into her backpack. This was better, but not by much. If you counted the cost of her current equipment’s fortification, gems and enchantments, it wasn’t worth replacing.
The fourth item was also a Dark Gold item – a ring for the Magic Professions.
This time, everyone was interested when the Attributes were revealed as Sesame Rice Ball, Nuo Yu and Kitty Likes Meat could all use this item.
Rings were quite hard to come by, especially Epic rings. They were currently all wearing Dark Gold rings that were much worse than this one. If they equipped this Ring, they would gain a significant boost in strength.
Although three players wanted it, it was only properly compatible with one of them
As such, Lu Li it to Kitty Likes Meat, leaving the others without any options.
A guild could only improve if they continued to do well in the competitive scene, which was clear to everyone. Therefore, priority would be given to the professional players.
Remnant Dream saw that she was about to pick up the last item, but seemed to be confident about it.
The last piece of equipment is coming. Everyone, pay your respects to me,
Dreamy, loot it quickly. If you get an Epic, we’ll buy you something to eat,
everyone said in anticipation.
Remnant Dream squatted and looted the item. As she pulled it out, she peeked at it and stared at Lu Li before asking,
Lu bro, was what you said before true?
Whenever she looted an Epic, the players would give her a reward anyway.
Getting First Clears was often a boring and exhausting task. The biggest difficulty was often not the Boss but their exhausted minds. However, with Remnant Dream and Hachi Chan there, they were able to help keep up their spirits.
Lu Li suddenly became excited, as this girl seemed to be talking to him…
Did that mean that she had a piece of leather armor for him? As the party leader, he had the authority to check the equipment’s Attributes.
Sure enough, it was a level 55 Epic leather belt.
Warmaster’s Belt (Epic): Armour 62, Agility +60, Constitution +40, 2 Slots, Special Effect 1: Evasion +20%. Special Effect 2: Disarm. This skill has a certain probability to steal the target’s weapon, making it impossible to use the skills that require it. Lasts for 3 seconds, 2 minute cooldown. Special Effect 3: Escape. Shift to the specific position within 15 and within line of sight. 2 minute cooldown. Does not share cooldown time with other similar skills. Level Requirement: Level 55. Durability 280/280.
Lu Li couldn’t help but compare it to his current belt.
Hex’s Protobelt (Dark Gold) Armour 46, Agility +30, Strength +12, 1 slot. Special Effect 1: Critical Hit +12%, Special Effect 2: Atomization. The user’s body becomes a mist and goes into stealth. Stealth effect increased by 20% and can pass through some obstacles. 2 minute cooldown. Special Effect 3: Magic Field. The magical environment 4 yards around the caster is twisted, causing all other targets to be silenced for 1.5 seconds. 24 hour cooldown. Equipment Requirements: Level 45. Durability 164/164.
In fact, Hex’s Protobelt was excellent, but Atomization shared a cooldown with Vanish. This meant that if he used Vanish, Atomisation would also go on cooldown.
There were also only some obstacles that could be crossed. This was useful when exploring but it was almost useless in an Instance Dungeon and in the arena.
As for the magic field, it was quite a strong special effect, but it had a 24 hour cooldown. This meant it could only be used once per fight, so it wasn’t an outstanding skill.
In contrast, this Warmaster’s Belt was a much more practical item, even if it wasn’t particularly strong.
The relationship between Evasion and Critical Hits had recently been tweaked. Evasion now mainly affected the received damage when a player was attacked.
On the one hand, a Manual Mode player’s Skill Completion would be lowered if an opponent had a particularly high Evasion stat.
This meant that Lu Li’s original 95% Skill Completion would now be reduced to around 85%.
On the other hand, when fighting against a Manual Mode player, this stat would reduce the probability of being hit by a critical hit. To an extent, it also reduced the critical hit damage.
Critical Hits and Evasion were generally seen as opposites, and their relationship was as such.
Now that players were beginning to gather quite a bit of Critical Hit and pay attention to these Attributes, it was important to have high Evasion.
Lu Li’s Evasion wasn’t too high, so the Warmaster’s Belt had come at just the right time.
The second Special Effect was something Lu Li had seen before. The probability of such a skill would depend entirely on the player he was fighting, so the effect wasn’t actually that strong.
As for the third Special Effect, Lu Li was very satisfied.
It could be said that this was the reason why this equipment was an Epic. Escape skills were a speciality of Thieves, and most importantly, they didn’t share cooldowns with other skills in the same category. For this reason, the Warmster’s Belt was very powerful.
This so-called shared cooldown was a like a global cooldown. If two skills shared a cooldown, that meant that using one or the other would put both of them on cooldown. This meant that you could only ever use one of the skills at a time.
If two skills didn’t share a cooldown, then you could use one and then immediately use the other.
This concept was not that complex. To put it simply, it was better for your skills to not share cooldowns.
The red packet that he was going to give Remnant Dream was not going to be small. Although he knew that Remnant Dream was joking before, he still gave her a sizeable reward. He knew how valuable this belt was and Remnant Dream probably realized as well.
Lu Li quickly replaced his belt with this one, with no intention of giving his original one to anyone else.
In the future, it might still come in handy particularly when exploring – he could come across a narrow entrance that was difficult for a normal player to pass through.
Lu Li wasn’t a selfish person, but he understood the value of his items. He didn’t like being too generous either, so he didn’t throw his items into the warehouse if they could still be useful to him.
