lvl 41, 38.8k BR (potted) problem with demon tower 69

[xodii]

im not sure why i'm having a hard time, about 7k less BR was needed for 65, then suddenly at 38.8k fully potted and scrolled cant beat 69

using holy flames, single heal and thunder setup (im a mage)

using all 3 lvl 4 pots, and lvl 3/4 scrolls (pdef and matk)

orbs arent perfectly good yet though

any advice on what orbs are a must and what to stat my equip with? so far i'm matk/crit/pdef and matk/crit/hp 50/50 lvl 4-5 gems
Any tips on as a mage to beat that floor is appreciated!

Floor 69 mobs are physical attack, so you need high pdef and hp, along with good offense, of course. Instead of holy flames, have you tried single hit? Sometimes I switched to single attack instead of AOE to clear an extra floor, it worked well for me.

Don't give up!

Yeah, single attack only removes 2 monsters and barely touch the others. But how come when i hover over the monster, it shows me the mob has same phys atk as he has matk? how do you know he's phys based?

[Itmoc_L]

Usually all mobs and bosses have same PATK and MATK, and slightly less PDEF than MDEF, but if you look at their skills (last things given) it tells you if their attacks are PATK or MATK based.
In Demon Tower all the little monsters use PATK and all the bosses use MATK. So usually if it's tough switch to full PDEF/HP for monsters, then MDEF/HP for bosses ^^

I see. I don't have any force field or damage wave orbs btw. Is that worth it in this state, at 38k bp? What does damage wave mean btw?

Damage Wave can be thought of as throwing a rock into a pond. The bigger the rock, the bigger the waves travel. So the higher your Reaper/Apocalypse Orb level is, the bigger "wave" of damage you have.

If you haven't caught on to it by now, this means that Reaper/Apocalypse raises your maximum damage potential, but also raises your minimum damage possible. For example, let's say you do anywhere from 1,000 to 2,000 damage, min/max, and you have an Apocalypse level 5 Orb (Reach of 15%). Your new damage values will be anywhere from 850 to 2,300, min/max.

Hmm, so wave also makes you able to hit for less, even if it increases ur max. damage?

Level 55. There is no known possible way to beat it without the level 55 dragons unless you shell out $1,200+ before level 55.

I cleared floor 100 @ lvl 54 with less than 300$ invested >.<

Holy cow. I was only on two servers and the first server I was on I didn't know what I was doing and messed up a lot, so I ended up being in my low 50s with like 30k BR only, while in S16 I'm only level 43 with a higher BR than my S4 character,

FAIL FAIL just get more BR

The first person that cleared the floor 100 in my server was a archer with 2 legendary equipment and a lv55 dragon (BR was ard 44 or 47K that time). He tried to get pass that lv100 before our mage did it ^^.
