So you mean he should continue throw endless of real money just to get a yellow glow on a weapon that is already pimped in its own normal state. Just to "beat" the game. The only thing he is beating is his own bank account. Unless Billion is a billionaire.

Yes, because if Athena_vn does it, he wants Billion to do it to.

Considering this game is only combat based, and Billion obviously rapes at combat. I guess you could claim theres alchemy, but thats not even a skill you can level. However WoW actually has non-combat skills and combat skills, so he could of played *gasp* 120 months of WoW instead of wasting all the money on 1 spear to beat to beat the game.

If you waste $400 on this game, might as well switch to WoW and cut your losses. Team-based, quest-based, gear doesn't matter as much as skill or build does, etc.

I've spent approx. $200 MAX on this game. That is, since Item Mall has opened.

I have bought monkey, gold ticket, 20% attack / defense scrolls, res scrolls, reverse return scrolls, etc.

I have bought gold too, oh well to late to take that back, I was desperate.


That is, on almost, two level 70 chars. So I don't consider it bad, since if I wanted too, I could sell each char for more than $200 a piece. I take it as a profit.

well here's my advice if youre still reading this topic billion: i would say you should stick with this game, but if youre really spending this much money i would take a break from this game at least until the cap is raised, and if you find that you cant seem to stop spending money on upgrading your weps then i would probably stop. Regardless, dont keep trying to upgrade that spear. It is not worth 450 USD to get a lvl 64 spear on SilkRoadOnline from SOS +5 to SOS +7, especially when you know they will raise the cap, and you will lvl so much soon that youre weapon will become a thing that would probably sell for 75 USD or so max in real currency.

Then again, I've never spent a cent on the game so i wouldnt know how addicting alchemy can be.

some items have better luck than others , id bet if you traded that one for another clean SOS spear ... boooahh +7 first try

Speaking of item mall >_> will the gift system EVER be available? O.o

Yeah, let the ccf'ign begin Gift system is evil

Goodbye, so long, cya

Omfg listen to the guy. He spend 450 Farking $ on +7 attempt. For what really ? Pixels on a screen. Shouldnt have to be this way.

I hate joymax for making astrals, makes me sick.

Look at is this way, no offense to billion .. or others. But I have literally lost count of peopel who have QUIT sro cause of alchemy failure, I say goodriddance taken a gamble and lost 450 $ can buy you a +7 sos pfff with money to spare.

Anyway even our friendly + addict HuyFong edged quittign cause of alchemy.. it's pointless

Almost all my gear is +5 with no astrals.

Including all 4 accessories. +5.

Accept for shoulder, boots.

Two items that pretty much drove me to ruin. I didn't stop and try a different item, because I already lost the typical 10m+ in stones each, and didnt wanna lose that money.

So say 10m in stones for both, is 20m.

Then say I've wasted 10m in elixirs and powders for both.

Thats 40m down the drain, and they are both +2.

I have a stack of 1-2-3-4-5 screenshots to show you, if I ever finish it.

But I just can't admit

These shoulders will never be +5 without astral.
These boots will never be +5 without astral.

Eventually I'll break down and stop trying. But I kept telling myself "It has to work eventuall, right?"

Nope. Not in 60-70 elixirs each. They just blow.

Plain and simple. For a little more money than I've spent, I coulda just bought SOS ones.

Athens recently lost Eldest, lvl 70, whose Glavie failed an alchemize one day. The dude snapped (or so I hear) and quit.

T_T

That Eldest dude is crazy, he actually sell NON-CCF silk and astral. poeple buy mad astral from him to +7 their weapon and he pay it all with his own money. It give me the creep when poeple +7 with hardearned cash, i mean one purple foggy light come up and jsut like that 5 bux is spent...... repeat it 30+ time....... seriouly go play another game, its look like you have a gambling troblem...

and this is why i buy items that are allready pimped........i'm not gonna go crazy about the alchemy (hell i've never done one and never will) cause sooner or later your gonna have to sell it anyways. less use fo real $$$ and less headaches.


Billion- i just saw u the other day and your char still looks pimped . so who are these other guys that can beat you? Opolo, Kyric, Madness, Mogi??

I decided to stay, had some "luck" with this spear. Put 5 str, 1 stone. 62% Phy attack, 1 stone. Then +5 with 5 elixirs. So along with many of your comments, i'll remain. Thanks alot.

Also, on the server the only guy that can beat me (60% of the time) is "had". And it's only because he's in full sos garment/shield all +7, while i'm in armour.

Otherwise, i'm pretty invincible at the moment. Which gives me more incentive to stay. But I almost accepted a couple offers in PM for the char, didn't expect to get so many PMs with realistic offers.


PS: I'm not giving up on making this spear +7.

I know how you feel, I spent 60usd trying to +7 and failed from +6 went to +4 and never was able to get it back to +5..
I'm thinkin of just doing a ..... charge back and officially moving back to wow.
I started playing this shit because it's free, and ended up spending more than I would playing a few years of WOW

OMFG. Small thing, but I may as well rant in the right topic.
I wanted to up my spears attk rating, so I tried a stone. It went to 0%.
Not only that, but assimilated mag attk to 3%, which by a philosphy stone went to 0%.
To make a long story short, 3m later, 0% attk rating, and 60% mag dmg, up from 46%.

I HATE ALCHEMY.

what about XCE? i know, he is Blader(full farmed).. but well.. everyone in Oasis know... the """GREAT LUCK AND MONEY" that he have.. and his super pimped items...

A little bit off topic but, can someone tell me the price of a lvl 64 normal spear, crit 11 please and thanks. Alps server or your server, don't matter.

Push it +6! Thats enough!

I am Full farmed Pure int in Greece Server! Full SOS +4 set (accessory +4 set)with +7 Sword and +5 shield (br 20) !

All my gears is +5 str and +5 int! HP+400 FOR LEG, head and chest!
This cost me like 100 stone. Everyone in Greece should know who much Str stone worth!

btw, except 3 guys with SOS +7 or +8 glav can beat me in that server, nobody else can.

However, I thought about it later! Why, waste a lot on these stufff! and very soon the cap will rise! This month SOM will appear@! So stick with it!

Btw somebody mentioned that he is interested in High level int char?!

I have two lvl 70 pure int char in Greece!

So I AM THINKING to exchange a char for pure str glav!

PM me if you are interseted!

Hahaha.. it's what you get for being greedy, isn't +6 enough for you? Lame. No hard feelings. But seriously? are you jealous of this "other" guy or something.. just because he has +7 shit doesn't mean YOU have to as well -_-

EDIT: I'm happy enough with my no-silk luck.. I made a crit 13 lv 42 Glaive +3 with 3 elixirs, and Both my SoS sword and SoS spear +3 with 5 elixirs each.. I'm happy as they are. Not to mention the no-luck with stamina stones.. 4 which none worked.

ohh and what kinda shield does have? it looked all sparkly and shit...never seen that kind b4

been there, done that.

for me the emo rage quit from alchemy never lasts, though.

Agaisnt the odd everyone think they will be the exception. Its not about the glow, or the +7 but its look like you think you will beat the odd. I would stop man. At this point your thinking if the spear doesn't become +7 all that money you spent is for nothing. I advice you to rationlize yourself. Stopping now is not "giving up" rather it show you have a strong character.

ya u forgot XCE and....maybe Opalo but havent seen him around lately

anyways....had a fun war last nite wit yall and fyban.

Pork.
