only auction can tell, you're looking at a pre-nerf perfect one of a kind chaos axe with the highest round value to boot
triple digit arms
-
not surprised if it goes for 70a+, this is beautiful
-
spiritbinder for 10-20e sure, rest is merch
-
i would merch both, 1 off the smite hurts and it's one of the less desirable magic type
nobody plays illu + dom at the same time, it's one or the other so the weapon isn't really viable
-
skin is basic but some people like it, a dozen ectos at most though
-
it's not rare enough to be desirable, you're gonna spend a lot of time finding a buyer for max 10e

On a new Ironman /Melandru toon capping BiP for eventual Master of Whispers BiP

bip holds ashes 95% of the time, so meh. perhaps on a Spoil Victor build ?

-
sad merch
the +5 armor counts as a dead mod on a focus unfortunately
-
-
axe a few arms, rest merch (katana and scepter hard sell 20e max gl finding buyer)
-
you changed characters too much ?

-
15-30a depending on your luck + how long you're willing to try to find a buyer
-
-
+5e is the priciest inherent mod and goes for single digit arms, 15^ench is most likely a hard sell at 10-30e
take what you can get kind of drop

My melandrus accord monk got a shield yesterday:
Display Spoiler

pls kill me
insane
it's all yours forever so see that as a win
-
giga unlucky. breaks my heart.
a reasonable collectioner is not going to buy it, a less reasonable one might throw a few dozen ectos at it if you're lucky
-
got an offer for 10a, schould I do it?
I'd take that offer if I were you

Some guy is selling q5 sea purse shields. Do any of you know which foes can drop such low q sea purse shields?
vabbi beetles

tahlkora will be happy to see that
-
tribal shield is most likely the crude version, I don't think the effigy one can drop from Zchest but I could be wrong, if that's not the case I would definetly pick it up, the rest is meh, perhaps the katana if it's q9 and the Elite tome
-
Worth to note you can drop kappa shields from there too :p
Never happened to me but good to know !
Only on the 2nd chest top left of the Rit boss I assume ? (only ball with Kappas)

Hey everyone
, this will be a quick guide with data on chestrunning for Naga Shortbows/LongbowsWe exit from Jade Quarry (Luxon side) and head east over the bridge over to the Rit Naga boss, there you can spot the possible Oni chest on your right (your call to go and pick it up), afterwards we go left and catch a glimpse of the possible northmost chest before going straight to the Monk Naga boss, /resign and repeat
A run takes roughly a minute and it's pretty easy to do (though Naga rangers can hurt, and don't forget the rits can KD you if approached too close without IaU)
This is the build I'm using with D/A and a +10 Armor vs Slashing Shield (if you die, it's while picking up your loot and the Wars hit you) : Ogej8xrDLTHQ4OIQ6M0kjbHY3lA


The chest amount varies from 0 to 3, the vast majority having 1 or 2, about 10% of runs have no chests and 5% have 3 chests (all Nagas in my sample but 1 Oni and 2 Nagas is definetly possible)
example triple chest run
yes i know, le baguette au fromage
Now for the data part : 340 Naga chests resulted in 14 Gold Naga Shortbows + Longbows combined, so basically a 4% droprate which is pretty good if you compare to other chestruns where armor pieces can drop
I like to do a chest running session of 30 drops at a time which takes me around 30 minutes to do while watching something on the second monitor and I almost always end up with a gold Bow afterwards, my sample data shows us that you'll get 1 every 24 chests so it matches up

On top of that, I had a couple of Paper Fans, Colossal Picks and a single Paper Lantern (with Jug being the trinity of Factions rare Foci that can obviously also drop)
That's all from me so I wish you happy running !

Yes but before the 15th anniversary there were just very minor changes and between the 15th and 20th anniversary there was also very little change. What are now like what i feels nearly weekly changes. Id say an small update every 5 years is something i can tolerate but at the moment its just feels excessive.
And its also different when you add something thats used very often like the of the profession mods. Now you have anniversary weapons with of the profession mods on a reforged dhuum melandu whatever character. Its not just small changes. Its a totally different game.
Before 15th anniversary there were just very minor changes... did we play the same game ?
I remember having game changing skills balance updates that would shift metas upside down on a monthly basis, I'm glad those days are over tbh.
The anniv weapons, the of the profession mods are anecdotal new ways to build your characters and I don't see anything bad with it, I'm more salty at skills like HR being introduced in the game are still completely busted as of today.
The pcons duration being extended to 30mins was a welcome change for everyone whether you're a SC player or just someone mad that bots exists since it makes their business less profitable.
So all and all I'd say the changes we've seen over the past few years are 90% good, 9% nothing sandwich, and 1% bad (HR

salvage topaz, outcast mods arent the greatest but i can see it fetch 1-5 arms but maybe hard sell
-
the stance kills it imo, unlucky merch
-
few ectos for the focus, rest merch/salvage
-
-
bump, lots of low Q stuff and more to come as I enjoy these stress free chestruns
-

it's one off but i'll take it
-
They probably did boost the droprates for Melandru characters and the reason for prices being low is... a lot of people are playing on their Melandru characters so nobody's buying.
My prediction for inflation on runes (mats already started a few days ago) is to ramp up around anniversary event (yes I am Warren Buffet of Kryta)
