Everlasting ki 27.8% question

[Htimez2]

So I have a pair of pants lvl 32 thgat have everlasting Ki 27.8% they r level 32 pants but I am level 60, should I give up that perk for higher gear pants? it will only grant me 30 defense is the trade for defense worth the loss of everlasting ki?

Just Soul Match those pants.

I have playing this for 500H and have no idea what that stat does, I still run out of stamin, I still get knocked out with 0 ki, I have 65% of it just in case it actually does something and there is nothing better to get on pants, however I wouldn't change them for the defense alone, unless the other pants are part of a set you want or have more useful properties keep them.

I think it gives you a 30% chance to not use ki when striking but I dont know for sure either.

The soul matching cost at this point is ridiculous, we are talking like a million per 10 levels per item.

Soul matching is still an option. Just keep a look out for gear with the very rare bonus "Soulmatching Cost Reduction". I have seen up to 90% cost reduction. You just have to use that high level item as the material.
So it should pay in the end to keep your low-level, superbly rolled gear around until you are either A) rich as a mothuh, or B) lucky enough to find some high-level stuff with a Cost Reduction bonus.

Everlasting Ki allows you to not go into a winded state and keep going when you do actions while at no Ki.

Just like other similar stats though, unless you have it 100% it's only a chance, so unless you're having a lot of problems with needing to attack while out of Ki, I would say just replace them.

It's a pretty meh bonus skill honestly. Better off with run speed or evasion ki usage.

K thanks for the responses.
