First of all, sorry for any typos because I'm typing on my iPod and yeah, fat fingers xD I know the damage thread and I think I'm ok. However, all my friends are super godlike and I wanna know what I can start off trying to do. I'm a level 125 bishop 81 luck base 807 magic equips: 15int/14luck zhelm dep star 134/7 dragon staff 9luck leaf 4int glove clean 5int shoes 29int blood robe 8/8 puac 8/14 int earrings (may have m.Att wrong, too lazy to check) well yeah it's pretty decent I guess.. the problem is, when my leaf expires, I'll be exactly 9 luck under the req for my dragon staff I got scammed alot recently then stupidly put up 3 claw 30s for 2.5m instead of 25m I have about 40mil mesos with items in the store that if I get extremely lucky, would sell out at I'm guessing 250m? I was thinking about leeching for mesos and getting a Horntail Pendant. any suggestions? thanks<3

get a scrolled like maybe 8/4 or 7/3 lvl 90 glove everything else is ...good! (actually sell the robe and get like a 27int anak or enigmatic, then get better earrings like 9/16. get a mon also, and maybe a suky matk shield like maybe a 4int 5matk 5slot esther (see tons of those on mts) dont get a ht pendant, its only 22int compared to 10matk/10int of the mon o.O i have

MoN/HT pendant Staff 150+ stat Gloves - I'd go for at least a 10 INT Earrings - 25+ stat Shield - 20+ stat These are more like long term upgrades though.

MoN is useless for mages. 1 INT = 1 M.ATK. 22 int > 5 int +10m.atk (15 total, not 20). That's a 7 INT difference, and INT is always better than M.Atk because the more INT you have, the more MP you have. TS, you might be able to find some 5 int, 1 luk shoes. If you really need to you can scroll a stolen fence with luk until you get a HT. Even temporarily downgrading your shoes or gloves just to use your wand would be better than wasting mesos on a MoN, only to get HT later. Gj on the overall, not bad, and the PuAC is decent too. You might be able to get away with only losing a couple INT until you have enough for a HT, which will solve your Staff problems. I would recommed planning on a Timeless or trying to eventually scroll an awesome Dragon staff. What you have is good for now though. Good luck =) EDIT: sorry I didn't see the shoe part you posted. You might be able to get a 2 or 3?

(they're gonna be 2 bil + from what i heard) dont pretend like u know somthing when u dont.... also he can try to get a good doomsday staff (only 80luk requir) and instead of using luk eqips make up w/ int ones

icemonkey you're insane xD that won't be for AWHILE. thanks bananorama I didn't think about luck shields xD I can use that until HTP since luck shields aren't expensive and MoNs are 5int/5luk

Timeless would be a plan for an end-game, like I said, his staff is fine. And a doomsday is going about as much as a HT, with less stats overall. With 104 luk, he'll have 126 after an avg HT, and can either reset 3 so he can use timeless later, or reset 13 and plan on using a dragon staff. Sounds like a better deal to me.

phoxnominal 06/21/09 + PM | QUOTE | PERMALINK | REPORT

yeah im probably gonna reset 13, then imma merch up about 2 max money mules then get a timeless f3 is selling leech a good source of income?

Bananorama 06/21/09 + PM | QUOTE | PERMALINK | REPORT

It is if you have the patience for it. I don't like to be required to play for a certain amount of time, so I don't sell. It's better money if you can find a HB mule, but that only works well if you have 2 comps or a REALLY bored friend. I would also recommend a pet with an item pouch, meso magnet and possibly scales. That way you can make a quick run around the map and loot. It's not much, but eventually having to only pay 12k for a magic seed is nice too.
