so i want to scrol a shoe for speed but idk if i should scroll rss or whitebottoms. whitebottoms give 3 speed avg and have 5 slots. but rss have 7 slots, so idk which i would scroll for speed. so which one should i scroll? im planning on trying to land 2 30% on the first 2 slots and then finish it off with 60%'s btw

The RSS has more potential. The White bottoms is basically hitting a 30% on an RSS then failing the other slot. It's just guarenteed to have 3 speed on it. Do what Senyain ( or probably someone else suggested this. ) but try hit 2 30%'s shoe for DEX on the first 2 slots of an RSS. Brings you to 6 accuracy 10 avoid, 2 speed. Then 60% the rest of the slots. On average, you should get at least 3 to work, if you're lucky you might get all 5 to work. Voila, 6 accuracy 8~12 speed shoes. Another suggestion is that you can 'make' your shoe with the maker skill. Get an intern/adv amethyst and boom. 5 Speed 5 slot shoes, with str/acc/dex as a bonus.

If he's normal DEX, he won't need the accuracy. If he's going for pure speed, I agree that Red Snowshoes are the better option. Not only could you potentially scroll it better (even with all 60%s), but it has the added advantage of not being able to slip on ice (and from what I've noticed, sometimes other surfaces).

That last statement made me curious. What other surfaces?

use the maker skill and get an adv amethyst and str on it its much better and just 60% but if your not into that i would say white bottom cause when u resell it will be worth more

Another idea, if you've lots of cash, is to get +1 or +2 with 30% for jump before starting the speed scrolling. That way your shoe is adding both jump and speed, and if you have either a speed bottom or speed cape it's helpful. In terms of pure self-scrolling for speed the whitebottoms have a slightly better expected outcome. The RSS have 2 more slots which is an expected pass rate of 1.2 60% scrolls (2.4 speed points) average gain over the whitebottoms, but since they have 3 speed clean they beat that. RSS is if you're willing to take the 36% chance that both of the excess 60% scrolls will pass.

Whitebottoms over RSS any day. Cheap to buy and easier to rescroll a 6+ speed shoe. It also comes in sexy pink. wooo *thrust*
