Your mistakes-

Post by Stallowned »

What are some of your worst mistakes on sro? Whether it be wasting money or sp, or thinking you can trust someone, etc..

Getting skills as a lowbie, then using cursed hearts to remove them.
After a while realizing that those skills were useful, and getting them back..
So much sp and gold wasted :banghead: :banghead:

Not buyign stuff in stalls when I see them, later deciding I want to buy it, going back and either not finding the stall anymore, or the item has been sold.

I'm not going to go into detail on how much money I've wasted and how/why, but when I think of how much I could have compared to what I currently have I throw up a little each time.

Knowing that the person was going to scam me for the shield elixir with the stall tricks and then buying it at 2.5mil

Agreement on the scrolling down. Found out at 21-22 then relized I wanted the circle.

Making my first character a 1:1 build with sword, spear, bow, ice, lighting, fire, and healing builds and playing on it for 4-5 months, getting to 26 then got bored.
Remade Character to hybrid-int spear and went from 1-26 in 2-3 months.
I'm back.

i was doing some alchemy after completing a super long quest, noticed 1 stupid mob-dropped sword wouldn't go thru, so i NPCed it for 1 gold, then i go to the hunter guild master and he tells me to keep looking for the stolen sword :banghead:

that first one took me 2 days to find.

Biggest mistake was getting addicted to alchemy. Ever since my first elixer ive been hooked and ive probably spent most of my money just on alchemy stuff.
