Smart Cybereye 1 and Advanced Nerves 3 they both do +INT.

DS+Core+def3+def2

EDIT: damnit phunqe, you should actually read the post o_O

I actually have the reflex1, can't afford the TRA-10 on the adv3 since I only have 2 TRA to begin with :p 2 might not seem much, but it's exaclty weighted for all my spells + certain amount of booster for fight readyness :)
But for the eye it's the cyb1...

Smart Cybereye 1 + Reflexbooster 1.

Dont let anyone else fool you. This is correct. Only reason to use a advanced nerves 3 is for the extra INT for the heavy belts. LVL to get past that thing quick.

What does smart cyber eye give you?

I have melee combat eye. With Melee boost 3 it gives me MC of 30 which helps counteract melee based attacks.

Reflexbooster gives int? Is that a droppable spine?

INT for putting on PA as well.

The cybereye gives you INT+1, so you can quicker reach the heavy belts. It's not much, but as we know INT levels not really fast as monk. Once you are capped (or can use the heavy belts), it's not really needed anymore. But.. it doesn't harm you, so i kept it, especially because:

Reflexbooster 1 - AGL+3, ATL+1, DEX+1, INT-1. Takes away that INT again. :p But it makes you a little bit faster as well.. the other spine implants are even more ueseless.. Advanced Nerves? Too big TRA penalty. Dex-Booster? Gives only DEX, and a monk does not need it at all.

DOH !!!

Now I'm feeling foolish

I've been shouting (kicking and screaming) for a experimental reflex booster 2 for weeks.

To take my run speed a little higher (all dex pts in Agility, 90 ath. atm)

Now having looked at the http://neocron.ems.ru/armor.html page I see that the exp-reflex booster doesnt exist (sob)

Wonder why exp-reflex booster 3 (AGL+10 END+5 DEX+3) has a dex requirement (44) one less than the Reflex Booster 2 (45, AGL+5 ATL+2 DEX+2).

WHY DOESNT experimental reflex booster 2 EXIST >>>?????

On a similar topic.

How good is melee at counteracting melee attacks. My first attempt as a PPU growing up a put a lot into melee combat and had someone whack at me with a laser sword doing little damage.

Wondering if it has changed much?

I know 30 isn't going to stop a spec'ed Melee but everything that takes the edge off the combat is a good thing.

Hmm... i doubt that M-C does anything at all against melee-attacks..
It's like every other attack - PRC/FRC or ENR for laserswords..

AGL should help against melee (that's what they write in the manual), but... somehow i doubt this.. :)

hehe, does it work at all? My melee tank has like 140 AGL atm and when bumping into a butchee he still hits me with every jab :p

But maybe it's for PvP based melee only :)

Mob-drop only. Either get the BP or hunt for mid-level mobs (Aggressors, Butchees, Launcher Cyclops for example).

I think you are playing on Uranus? I could give you a BP. On Saturn as well btw.

you could also use a str. booster 1 which gives +1 str.

the +1 str adds a little transport but i still think the reflex 1 is better

although it neglects the smart eye with its -1
