[Raptor]

What items to craft do get the highest DPS output with Armory level 7?
Mahem shard, Mega cube, Elixir of madness, ... something else?
How many of items do you have for level 2000?

11 mayhem, 9 war, 8 mega cubes, 10 elixir of madness.

All #1 - #15 and some scattered items:

Hmm, now I'm not able to pass lvl 2300 :-(
-1T white orbs!
-4 Black orbs
-14 Mayhem shards
-4 Megacubes
-7 Elixir of Madness
-32 King Collar (max lvl)
-29 Pearl Necklace
-All +DPS items

-Armageddon Armory - lvl 7
Golden Shower of Deathness - lvl 5

What can I do? Only craft Mayhem shards? Seems useless for me when compared to previous DPS with -1 shards.
What should I do to get easy to lvl 3000? Hundreds of Mayhem shards???

wait megacubes stack?
thought those didnt and were usless after like 1200-1500 areas

whats the max % lvl for the collars n items
6000% ish seems all i can get and they dont stack either so 32 of them =1 right?
unless im thinking of a diff item

PN dont matter, you need like thousands of them.

Collars are additive to each other, so 32 of them is 32 times more dps than having 1 of them (if we ignore the effects of the lesser star value collars which also add to the total). The reason they aren't a major source of dps after early in the game is if you want to double your dps from collars you now need 64 of them. Then 128, then 256. Whereas with shards each one doubles your dps with just the one.

So picking up collars here and there helps out slowly, but the more you get the more slowly they help out.

Megacubes are the same way - additive to themselves. So the first one gives +500% to your dps (or x6), the second increases this to +1000% (or x11), the third to +1500% (or x16) - so the first is x6, the second just under doubles your dps (11/6), the third adds about a third (16/11), and so on.
