Potential Scrolls are a lie.

Perhaps lie is the wrong word. Either way, I've been screwed by them. The first day they came out, i used one on my reverse grabbe. It's stats were 11 str/7 dex/12 speed/1 acc/2 jump, 0 slots u/h. The scroll I used was 70% and it blew it up. I wasn't too disappointed because i knew i would be able to make much better shoes easily. I didnt bother replacing my shoes right away because they werent, at that point, an essential part of my gear. Next, i tried my pants. 15 dex/4 str/10 speed/3 acc commodore bottoms with a 70%. Boom, there goes my pants. Oh well, I had seen a 23 acc 10 str 3 dex clean pant in the fm earlier which i went and bought for 50m. Tonight, i find a cheap 90% scroll that I want to use on my reverse executioners. I buy it, and use it. My executioners was 131/21str/5 speed, hammered. It cost me about 3.1bil to make that sword, a while ago. It blew up. So of 3 potential scrolls, all of which have rather favourable probabilities of working, none did. The mathematical chance of this happening in a row like that is this: 0.3*0.3*0.1 0.9% How many of you have passed a 1% clean slate scroll? Anyway thanks nexon, I'm done with your PoS game.

And dude, lighten up. If you're so "secure" about all of this, why are you acting like such a jerk? There is no need for your negative attitude.

so far I used 4/4 or 5/5 70% potential scrolls. how many times ppl landed 2 30%s in a row?TONS. and that=your 2 failed scrolls. how many times ppl landed a 10% out of the blue?not many,but not that rare. when I lvled my ring mule i used 2 10% glove dex and 1 10% earring dex and 1 worked. *sorry for bad math*

[quote] lolpancake : because they totally do the same thing yes? @thymesoulja So you're out of 4 hours and 1.5k NX. I'm out of about 3.4bil total. Who loses more? [/quote] QQ, I lost 15Bil off a couple items from a rollback in Scania and I'm not complaining . Haven't even bothered to send a ticket. At least you had the fun of blowing them up ^_^

[quote] VolklRacerr : the first potential scroll i used, gave my earring 2% dex and 12 avoid. i guess its alright, on my sin its the same as a 2 dex earring, i dont know if i should scroll it or not [/quote] I say potential that again if you can, it'd be better for %luk or something, or maybe just some normal +dex. OT: I'm really sorry dude :s 3.1b is out of this freaking world to me, though.

I blew up my 130 atk/18 str/4 dex executioners and 10 str/8 dex/ 5 acc reverse grabbe with a 70% and I only used a 70% on those two items. The 1h build was extremely taxing on my funds, so I mts'ed my 20 atk shield for cubing and 90% scrolling. I managed to successfully potential my backup niblehiem, scg, pac, facestompers, neos top and bottom. The only item I blew up was my zhelm which is easily replaceable lol... Honestly 90% is the way to go. The 70% potential scrolls I do feel are a lie.
