So I finally can make reverse stuff. I'm not sure if I make the staff it'll be sold.. do people just make their own? or would someone actually buy from FM? I'm thinking of training and getting pots at the same time and hopefully can make the reverse while I train. Thanks for any help.

You do know it takes 45 PoT to make a reverse weapon right O-o? Finding 45 PoT would take a LONG time.

Anyway, if you do make a reverse weapon for resale value, I suggest you get your buddies to help you make something worth more.. Reverse Staff's aren't worth a lot, even with Evan coming. Majority of them are lukless and would use the Elemental staff. I suggest you make a Reverse Lampion or even Reverse Dagger (Dual Blader release)

He's a mage, so he can't make weapons of other jobs.

Oh I see your point. Well that idea kinda does burst his bubble of able to make reverse weapons himself

[quote] thetank2 : Oh I see your point. Well that idea kinda does burst his bubble of able to make reverse weapons himself [/quote] :/ yeah true but the mage class are probably the only class that a lot of them would be lukless, whereas with classes such as NL/BM would usually use a Lampion (because of massive base attack) and Equinox (Again high base attack and strless have a very unstable range). Even Hero/Paladin or DrK since none of their weapons require dex. But majority wise I'd go with NLs since they are the most reverse users I see runing about. After that it's DrK's seriously, so many DrK use that Reverse spear o.O

[/quote] I have always wondered what that was for. o_O Never tried anything with it though. Oh yeah your question. Well majority of people I know with Reverse Weapons (actually 100%) have made the Reverse Weapon themselves considering it's cheaper to make than it is to buy and also if you make it yourself it feels better (atleast with me it does).

@phoen1xjav: Yea you got a good point there.. might just cancel this whole reverse staff thing... [quote] reddragon456 : i've been looking for a reverse staff to buy o-o but i dont have the money for it yet :/ [/quote] For your I/L? It would be better using ele wand/staff..

It takes a very long time to make a reverse weapon, if you are going to make one to sell it, don't waste your time/effort.

It's not a good idea. You'd spend more money making one than you'd earn back selling it. Fyi reverse staffs don't sell for much, there were a few on basil auctions clean that were unsold even for 300 mill...Think about it, nobody's going to bother making a reverse staff without using an adv wisdom crystal, adv sapphire, and some other adv crystal. Add the costs of that together with 45 PoTs and the other items need. Most people would rather make one themselves too.

[/quote] Ok but still consider the Reverse Claw/Dagger idea. Oh and btw you could also just sell the PoT seperately. They used to be 8mil-ish but recently I seen them around for 4.5-5m.
