Kay so I bought an 85 shield with immortal 6 on it for 5m last week (hehe)
Made it +6 today, took nearly 100 elixirs to get +5 but got +6 on the first try with the aid of lucky (ie, it still has immortal 6)
Anyway, the only reason I bought it was to make a profit as chinese shields sell for a nice price.

So.. should I go for +7? It's clean atm, I was thinking of pimping it at +6.. if I get something awesome like br18 I'd go for +7 and if I just got br16 I'd sell at +6.. sound good?

input pl0x

go for +7 since it's the hardest thing to deal with atm.

then blue it and get profit of it.

edit: a poll would be nice for your thread.

Depends on your financial status ... If you can afford to make him +5 again, then do it, if not, I'd go safe way ... but if you success +7, that'd make you some nice profit.

sell it if you don't use it

Try +7ing it. If you dont do it make sure you got enough to +5 it again. But if you are real afraid of failing, then keep it at +6 and pimp it out, followed by selling for a pretty good profit.

Yeah I'm ganna try for +7 tomorrow night at the same spot I got +7 on my euro shield.

I got 80m gold and some SoM heavy armor legs to sell so I should be ok for gold..... although I did waste like 300-400m on 85 daggers a while ago.. killed 6 immortals and now they're +5 ><

Try to +7 but dont forget the lucky stone.

so far according to my figures you spent over 30 mil
so the thing you want to figure out is how much profit you want when you sell it, if +7 fails, then you will be back at square one

for me i would maybe add the blues and sell as is, but thats me

Go for +7!

Yeah it failed.
After that I got it to +5 twice but both times failed to +6.

Only one immortal disappeared so that's a plus, I guess.. though my gold is taking a beating and I can't stall tonight due to inspection >< birthday tomorrow so maybe I'll get lucky and someone buys out my stall.. and I get +7 on the first try when I get home! xD

with alchemy i tend to lean on the conservative side

+6 shield with a high BR can make you quite a decent profit... considering how much uve spent to "pimp" it

Mousetrap · **Joined:** Mar 2008 **Posts:** 817 **Location:**

Yeah.. this shield has turned me off +ing forever.
I will never again go for higher than +5 again (unless I find a sun.. yeah, right lol)

Hopefully I can at least break even selling it.. such a moneypit.
Guess JM gave me a break cause I gave them some more money Lol.
should've sold it at +6 the first time tbh, I only need to +5 my robes and buy pots, don't need +7 or sun on a euro ;-)

Never ever try +7 if it is difficult to get it to +5. Blame the bad advices you got in this thread
