Pimping Out Gear

Post by phoeniXofury »

Hey guys, I'm rerolling and I bought a nice SoM lvl 24 sword that i'm going to farm with at hyungos at lvl 24... (are hyungos a good choice for 24? been a while since i was 24 so i dont remember what i was on).

anyways, im not at home right now, so im not on SRO, but ill get a SS up of the sword as soon as I can. it already has some pretty good percentages, but I need to work on its criticals and its blues.
are magic and physical reinforce % worth wasting stones / elements on? i never really understood what they did...

also, this sword came with barely any blues. one blue, i think it was atk rating 10% increase, which I used a stone and got it to 20%.

my question is, is it worth the money to pimp out the weapon? it'll cost me 2M+ to pimp out this sword and make it kickass... will the new pimped-out sword be worth 2M+ more than the sword if it wasn't pimped?

also, if someone has time on their hands, for the blues, what would be a good percent of increase?
Ex. Atk rating 30% increase is good, 40% is godly. (dont know about that, just an example).

thanks guys, for all your help. cant wait to use this sword, haha. but ohhh damn, there a 24/7 staller in DW near the teleport on Athens selling a lvl 24 SoSun+6 bow, full blues, amazing percentages and crit...

for 150M. :D

A month u say xD, well being an som you dont really need to pimp it ^^, it will already deal big damage. But if you want to make more money off it, then do it.

cool, my questions is this:

pimping out the weapon will cost alot of money, because with the element prices (gonna need alot of wind 2) and tablets - and then you factor in failures and assilimation that might screw up my crit or anything else...

so, if i pimp it out, will it be worth the price? say i spend 2M to pimp it out. will it be worth 2M more? thanks.

hey dude ^^ ..

1 - for farming .. earth ghosts are good ... good drop rate also ..
2 - farming on 24 isnt good .. u can stop farming .. consider this as a good money deal .. u bought it for 20 m as example .. pimped it with 4 m .. so u can sell it with 30 m .. just example ~ .. no one will buy fast .. but u know .. alot guys buy gold .. so when it comes to them .. it wont matter with them .. they will buy it by anyprice ^^ ..
3 - 24 ~ 32 = 7 days 4 lvl gap with me .. so wont last long ..
4 - farm at yeti .. that will be cool .. lol i DO think they give sos .. and better than farming in caves .. its hell i cant get 2000 sp that fast ..

addressing this:
1. alright, cool, thanks.
2. i bought it for about 12M worth of stuff on Athens. but never thought about how botters / gold buyers will buy anything, hahaha
3. well, im gonna have a 7 gap. level up to 24 with a no gap and then use curst hearts to delevel my masteries. when i hit 32 ill simply delevel all the way down to 24? i think i should be able to get maybe 20k-30k before i have to delevel.
4. any mob has a chance of SoS :D

thanks. anybody have any opinions about good percentages on blues if i choose to pimp my weapon out?

He said he was gonna farm. That means he could have a 9 level gap, so he could stay there for quite some time.

Considering you cant use any level 4 tablets on higher level weapons, why the hell not. You will have to buy elements anyway when you get to higher levels. You could probably use that weapon for 10-11 levels, unless you find a lvl 32 sos/som.

. k lets see .. since u wanna farm anyway :D

~ 2. lol i know guys here in egypt ,, most egyptien dont have visa .. they cant buy silk or charge gold .. so they use ccfed stuff .. they are even stupid cant read english .. well not all most .. they charge like 2 billions and go a stall say " omg good som glavie " .. the comment in stall leave offer the last offer is 40 m and its in stall for 70 .. they buy .. lol alot of these guys are around .. u dunno what will happen maybe i will be lucky that u bought it later :D

3. k .. thats best point in farming at low lvl .. when u use cursed heart to farm and delevel masteries .. u dont lose alot sp of the 80 % u get + the gold .. cauze at 6x u will lose alot if u deleveled some skills .. 20 % is alot .. also alot gold ..
4.yea any mob has a chance of sos .. but it varies .. flowers gave 3/4 of 5 dg sos weapons i believe ..

for blues .. make sure they are 100 % .. u dont have to get attack rate increase 100 % ( + 30 ) for example this sux .. a 60 % ( + 100 ) is better .. int and str are good .. get all stones .. then try them out cauze stones when works with me .. all work when fail all fails .. i today added 4 int 75 % to my lvl 56 + 3 crt 13 spear mag 57 % from first try .. and philosphy stone got my m sword mag 18 % to 47 % .. =))

It's unrealistic, but I got lucky and had 3 blues go to 100% first go once. :D As for failure/assimilation, I'd say that it's about a 50/50 chance of a stone succeeding/failing so you need twice as many stones. Assimilation hasn't been a problem for me, it's only happened once (maybe twice) in the three things I tried to pimp out. Make sure you get steady on your weapon, you only need 1. I haven't had steady used up once when I've been enchanting stuff, but you don't want that ugly line of red spoiling your pretty blues if something does go wrong. :P And immortal is important too for when you're plussing stuff. If you put astrals on it, make sure there is always one more immortal than astral. Someone here had an elixir fail (on a 1 astral/1 immortal weapon) which used up an immortal, which meant that the astral was taken off it, and then it went to +0. I'll put more tips in when I think of them. Hope this helps for now. :)

yeah i think yetis are good too, but penon and sonar spawns are also wonderful :D Yeah hyungnos are ok but u are farming with sword? :? That will probably take a bit longer to kill mobs than it would take with, for example, an sos +1 24 bow. And it costs a lot more too :(

if u use a sword u are a nuker, so why farm at lvl 24? farm at lvl 32, buy a decent sos/som and u will have nukes! u will farm faster with nukes!!!!

level up your skills to lvl 23 and then just level up a mastery to 32, then delev that mastery and u will have a 9 lvl gap at 32!

at 32 with a som weapon u can almost one hit flowers! :D
