No, not really, depending on farm rate, I'd leave as is. If it's not blue, maybe add some blue before selling off, and maybe try to get to +1-x or something.

IMHO no for 2 reasons.

1 - IF you succeed the difference is not that great. You are better off waiting till higher levels where even a +1 makes a visible difference.

2 - It's not worth it. Unless the cost of lucky powders and elixir is less than what it would sell for it is a waste. So at min elixir cost figure you need to sell it for 210k more than you bought it. If you try to go above +1 than you need to start figuring in the price for the stuff spent on failures also.

They are Lance but not THAT much more. Most wouldn't pay 250k more for a +1 SoS than a naked SoS. But, waiting til lvl 6 or 7 bow +1 is worth over 500k. I made that mistake when I 1st started. Minimal damage gain and couldn't recoup the cost. Now I'm not going to try to + anything until 6th degree minimum.

ınstead of usıng wep. elıxır on your bow you can put str or ınt or both on your equıpment. thıs wıll be a lot cheaper ıf you fınd the elements yourself and buy the tablets. but youll have to be patıent though.

If no STR then add a STR attribute stone. If crit is below 6 add Crit attribute stone. I don't recommed adding a crit stone if crit is above 6 because the chance of knocking it lower is better then raising it. Then i would easily take it to a +2 without batting an eye. Gold is plentifull in this game and one thing to never skim on is your weapon. But i always recommend paying top gold for a weapon thats already what you want instead of buying one and trying to enchance it yourself. But there not always available so you have to make due.

no dont, if u think you can pull it off, be my guest but just think of the worst that could happen. Your better off just selling it to make money for a better one. that soln is much safer.

I have bought several sos lvl 16 bows...I always get them to at least+2..on athens you can get 2.5mil easy for a non+ sos bow...and about 3mil for a +1 so its worth it on Athens..my current bow is a SOM+2 crit 8 lvl 16...paid 2.5 mil for the bow and 400k in elixers...so yea I got a good deal. These som+2 lvl 16 bows can go for what..about 17mil, there is not many around at least, im looking for a soSUN, so if anyone has one, let me know.
