Can’t play with friends? Can’t find people online to help? Despair overwhelming you at the thought of the offline farm? This guide is for you. Seguindo este guia, you will complete this achievement without even noticing (literalmente).
Introdução
This guide is to help people automate the offline farm for the Exalted Reputation achievement.
eu usei this Youtube guide as the basis for my own setup. I added some fluff on top so that one-shotting the enemy could be possible even with less strength (níveis), though the automating script I made only considers the minimum spells I ended up needing.
Adicionalmente, você vai precisar AutohotKey for the script part from the later section. AutoHotkey is an open-source scripting language for Windows for various input-based tasks. You can find more information on them from the link to their official website or just generally on the internet.
Character Setup
You can get the basic setup from the video linked in the Introduction section. If that setup is enough for you to one-shot the enemy (which requires about 12k damage), you can skip this section (at least mostly) and adjust the script with the gifts and skills you are using.
IMPORTANTE: The setup I used utilizes the gift Steadfast Strike from the Pollux Blood Code, which is from the Frozen Empress DLC. It can be replaced with just the Judgement Edge charged heavy attack (remember to edit the script if doing so), but Steadfast Strike does about ~50% more damage, so using charged attack instead will likely require a bit more other buffing gifts.
Setup in the above image. See below for more information. Remember to master and inherit the gifts from various blood codes so you can actually use them in the build.
While levels don’t increase your power that drastically per level in this game, it is worth noting that I was level 190 for my farming.
- Hades Blood Code
- Judgement Edge +10
- Night Claw +10
Any strength-based veil will do. Any strength-based Blood Code with aptitude for heavy gear could do as well. Didn’t test any other options for either of these.
Judgement Edge is a drop from Juzo Mido at the end of the Crypt Spire.
Hades is a drop from the final boss.
- Max Ichor Boost (Harmonia Blood Code)
- Revenant’s Greed (Hermes Blood Code)
- Two-handed Sword Mastery (Atlas Blood Code)
- Vow of Ichor (Isis Blood Code)
Ichor boosting passives allow using more active buffing gifts that tend to give better damage increase than the passive strength/etc. presentes.
Two-handed Sword Mastery increases damage more than strength gifts, and should be prioritized over them.
Revenant’s Greed increases item drop rate from enemies, which is quite quintessential when battling the low drop rate of Mark of Honor. If really in need of bit more damage, this could of course be replaced with something on that end. With the automated setup, that would just mean you need to let it run a lot longer to get the Marks.
Importante: for the script to work, the gifts must be positioned like in the above picture (most importantly for the three gifts it uses by default).
- Steadfast Strike (Pollux Blood Code) (From Frozen Empress DLC)
- Night Fog Veil (Heimdal Blood Code)
- Merciless Reaper (Assassin Blood Code)
- Blood Weapon (Dark Knight Blood Code)
- Adrenalina (Fighter Blood Code)
- Excesso de velocidade (Assassin Blood Code)
- Blood Sacrifice (Hunter Blood Code)
Steadfast Strike is high damage gift that is not interrupted easily.
Night Fog Veil makes it hard for enemies to notice you.
Blood Weapon adds blood damage to your attacks. The target here is weak against blood.
Merciless Reaper ignores notable portion of enemy physical defence for one strike, or significantly buffs their physical damage weakness (if they are weak instead of resistant to physical damage). On most targets, increases damage more than either Adrenaline or Overdrive (or sometimes both).
Adrenaline and Overdrive increase your attack damage. Overdrive increases more, but is removed when taking damage. They do stack with each other. If you are using different blood code than Hades, one that has higher mind, using Bridge to Glory is also possible for larger attack buff than Adrenaline.
Blood Sacrifice restores some ichor from your HP. Potentially useful if you would need more gifts here than you can afford, even with the increased ichor from passives.
é recomendado, as with it, you will retain all haze you accumulate from the kills. If you don’t have Mistle Root, using Bloodstained Stake (which I believe is automatically in inventory or is given to you as part of the story) to return to the mistle every round is also possible, but will make you lose all the haze you get from the kills.
Mistle Root can be found in Crypt Spire. Right after obtaining and using Bloodstained Key, you will arrive at the crossroad pictured below. Instead of going right to continue onward, climb up the ladder on the left and continue forward to find a room with a bloodspring and few Lost. Kill the enemies and pick up the Mistle Root from the bloodspring.
Roteiro
Até agora, you should have loaded AutoHotkey from their website as linked in the introduction section.
Agora, with that healthy reminder being said, below is the script, with comments added in to help understand what is going on:
Having installed AutoHotkey, there should be File Explorer option to new->Create AutoHotkey-script. Can also just create .ahk-file manually. Create a script file (make sure it is completely empty), copy all of the above inside, e salve. I would personally recommend using a text editor meant for programming, so you have potential support for syntax highlighting and the like. Makes it easier to understand the script, especially if you need to modify it.
If you are using slightly different gift setup from the one demonstrated in this guide, you can easily modify this script using the functions for spellcasting.
Adicionalmente, feel free to adjust the final big sleep to match your computer performance. My computer took about ~10 seconds to be ready for a new loop after using Mistle Root, but I added few seconds of buffer time in case some hiccups happen in loading, and I would recommend the same for you even if you are running a strong computer. On the other hand if you are running a slower machine, you can increase that timer as much as is needed for your computer to finish the process there.
When the script is running (double-clicked from the directory or similar), press ctrl+i to initiate the loop. To stop it, press ctrl+b. It will stop after finishing the current loop, before the next. Como tal, I typically like to stop it during the loading screen which is the final phase. Since the script is also sleeping for a while there, it is the best spot to give clean stop input.
Agricultura
With the character setup and script ready, it is time to farm. The location for the farming is Tower of Trials II just like in the linked video.
If you are doing this manually, remember to never bother with the left Lost, only with the right one. The left one doesn’t drop Marks of Honor and will just waste your time. The right one has maybe about 1/4 ou 1/3 drop-rate on Mark of Honor with Revenant’s Greed.
After teleporting to the location, do not move your character or camera. It will potentially make the script fail (likely for one round only, but potentially more if you happen to die and the required timing of the loops gets shifted). If you did move before running the script, just use the mistle root again to reset your position at the mistle.
Como tal, all you need to do is:
- Double-click (correr) the script file in your directory to start it up. Should be then visible in the small openable background task menu in the taskbar, where for example Discord and Steam also typically have their icons even if you close them but don’t properly quit
- Make sure you have the character setup ready and mistle root as the active item
- Teleport to Tower of Trials II
- Press CTRL+i to init the loop in the script (i for init)
- ???
- Lucro
To make sure everything is working as intended, I would recommend looking at it every now and then for the first while. If everything is working, then you can just leave it rocking for the night or similar. Takes probably about 10-12 hours on average to get the required number of Marks of Honor (sobre 11 hours for me personally).
If something goes wrong, or you are finished and want to stop the script, press CTRL+b (b for the break). To guarantee cleanly registering the input without any additional actions taken after it by the script, I would recommend stopping it during the loading screen part when the code sleeps for the longest time. The loop will break right after as it starts anew and faces the break condition.
