Re: How to recognize scammers, and how to not get scammed?

A while ago I got scammed with a 3D weapon using exchange. The culprit would show you a +4 +5 or +7 item and give you a buy it price, when you place gold they swap with similar NPC item and nothing changed visually and approving to quickly you'll purchase a worthless NPC item. Always check the item ...

Re: How safe is it to alchemy?

Add STR, INT, durability, blocking ration (sp?).
Much harder stats to change using pink stones are critical, physical and magical (+xx%) damage.

Alchemy is like a casino, it's designed for you to loose.

Re: Job Question...

Yes, noise will protect your convoy animal and your wolf too (except champs and giants).
Then cast temptation on one of the NPC thiefs and watch the fun.
Noob thiefs who're not familiar with noise will try to mob you, but I stand there and let the monsters attack and kill their horse and then move on.

Re: Cerberus

Who ever helps needs to start or complete the last part of cerberus quest in order to fight the monster with you (call of hell item I think). There's no rush, you can finish the quest to get item and fight it latter when u ready.

Re: Which should i stay with??

I have an inactive lv 38 STR Glaiver, but he's such a high HP/MP pot and SP consumer that it costs me more to grind then what I take in. Even gaping and closing I'm still short on SP; may have to remove light altogether since I can't do item mall tickets for now.

Item Description not showing

After the most recent update, all weapons and armor are missing the title description.
Not sure if this is experienced server wide or it's just a local problem on my end; and if so what file that I need to reupdate.

Re: Trading

Any trade between cities will yield profit, just pay attention to the inventory gold when you selling the goods; it should go up.

As for various star trades, success of probability depends on your character level, which you did not mention.

Re: Ok This Jewelry would make you invincible

Calculations sound too good to be true.
I would calculate them as such:

Physical absorption -

ring = 22.4 * 1.61 = 36.064
necklace = 29.7 * 1.61 = 47.817
earing = 25.4 * 1.61 = 40.894
total = 124.8 damage absorbed

If the pet is full and still picks up gold, then before a big kill like a giant or a party monster (monitor it's HP), drop a low lvl item and the pet will stay (most times) with that item until the item is gone and you can take the gold during that time from the kill.
