Hey guys Is it worth it to buy 10% dex scrolls from kpq and use them on bath/sauna robes? is there a large difference between buying the two? Also, how much would a +5 dex robe be worth, with two slots used*?, and one slot used*?, and a +10 dex robe be worth with two slots used*? Would it be worth it to try doing this for profit? Thanks *Edited... USED, not left.

the more profitable route would be to buy up a bunch of clean robes and 10% them until you get a few that land the first time. meaning, if the 10% doesn't work, throw the robe away, and try again. when you get a 5 dex robe with 9 slots left, that will probably get you some profit.

Tbh, its not really worth it. If you scroll it and all of them work, then your just freaking lucky.

+5 dex, 2 slots = worthless 1 slot = even more worthless 10 dex, 2 slots..6-8M? No it would NOT be worth it. Depending on prices, I'll assume each scroll costs 1M. If you scrolled 100 robes, according to the statistics, only 10 would work. 5 DEX, 9 slot is ~20M in Bera. In all Scroll price: 100M 5 DEX, 9 slot robes: 200M You have to remember this is based on statistics. You might not even get ONE 10% to work out of the 100 robes if you tried. It's risky but do it if you like a challenge or feel lucky.

5 dex= 20m. 10 dex = 100m. 15 dex = 300m.

Well in Bera anyways... +5 DEX, 9 slot robe is anywhere between 17-20M. +10 DEX, 8 slot robe jumps to like 80M I think? Not too sure on the +10 DEX, 8 slot price, but I'm definitely sure about the +5 DEX, 9 slot. Statistically it should make you a profit if you buy 10% overall DEX scrolls for less than 2M each and 1 out of every 10 scrolls work. But that's only if you get lucky before that 10th attempt to scroll for a +5 DEX, 9 slot robe, and then sell it for 20M. It took me almost a week to sell a +5 DEX, 9 slot robe for 18M in Bera... I personally don't bother with it unless I feel like messing around and seeing what I get. If you have a constant supply of 10% overall DEX scrolls though, then go for it and more power to ya.

A +5 stat 9 slot robe = around 15 - 20m.
