3 unsealing charms each try, gross

atm i just run all my dailies on summoner but i'm in the process of making a LBM and FM so i can do dailies multiple times

Yeah I'm doing the same thing to make gold faster (and get more soulstones). I have my alt summoner in Earthseers to make the unsealing charms I need.

Dokumo stuff is found from Skittering Tunnels (le blue spider dungeon). The sould shields will require an unsealing charm each to use.

probably going to run warlock with the unsealing charm guild once it comes out for the easiest farming lol

Update on PvP...

lol so close..... but HYPE

EDIT:
AYOOOOHHHHH

[L.B.D.D]

whoa

[Elite Ninja]

Nice w/l ratio. You played BnS before NA/EU release?

Also it feels like I've ran into your character somewhere before but I'm not sure when/where....

[L.B.D.D]

i just do the dailies and log off

but just bought a merry potter's recipe today so i can start making my own stuff

i saw some people today with the blackwyrm gems (the ones that are like 150g on market) and fully decked out siren wep + accessories these people are so far ahead it's not even funny.

i wonder if they got merry potter recipes on like day 1 and have been cranking out the big fat money since then.. i didn't really play until late january because i've been busy

[L.B.D.D]

i think i'm going to make 6 more level 11's just so i can up their crafting.. gotta pump out the unsealing charms and stuff later on for profit

[Elite Ninja]

Yeah I'm assuming those are a group of people who had played the game a lot previous to the NA launch and new exactly what to do when they hit 45 to make big profits off stuff everyone will need :/

Only stuff I've gotten from Blackwyrm so far is the fancy costume from the box lol. I've made my Awakened Siren Weapon though and jeez does it cost a lot of gold even just to upgrade its levels (gotta transmute elements at this point to use as fodder so make sure you're dismantling the blue/purple weapons you're getting for the powders). It also takes a lot of soulstones which is why I need more 45s to do more soulstone dailies lol.

Just remember to keep in mind you will only be able to gather from tier 1 materials at that level so you'll have to buy the mats if you wanna make tier 2+ stuff until you level your characters more.

I've been making a decent profit from Radiant Ring though selling Sparkling Pentagonal Jewel Bags (which is an rng bag that can possible give you Attack Power 25 Diamond). I tend to just sell the bag for gold instead of opening it since I know how bad my rng is and probably wouldn't get lucky and get the 25 atk power gem (which is 1/5 chance I think?).

as someone who knew many of these people and exploited their knowledge in many kgrind initial releases back in the day i can tell you that not only is this 100% true but it's probably far more organized and insidious than you might think

depending on exactly how the game is set up a few players might be able to control 80-90% of endgame economy for months after initial release

its great if you're one of those players tho

thing about bns though is bots are rampant as fuck so a small group of players will actually never have a significant impact on the economy as a whole, especially when the market is regionwide (not server wide)

you'll be able to check out prices for a certain material needed for an endgame weapon fodder (moonwater transformation stone) and then realize it all balances very quickly due to the sheer amount of raw materials and gold being poured into the market by bots

[L.B.D.D]

example: misty woods terrors being farmed like it's nothing

featuring at least 60 summoner bots

yea im mostly talking about endgame resources that cant be bot farmed (again not sure how blade and soul operates in this regard) but in games like SUN we had groups timer camping all bosses that yielded the crafting mats required to access gear required to access later gear

it was pretty scumbag

yeah i get what you mean

everyone still has to farm endgame gear but the actual gear fodder (heroic sets required as fodder for moving onto next set of gear) are account bound and non-tradable so no profit there

also our current patch (45) is literally irrelevant because the actual level cap is 50, and the entire game goes through a number inflation (the exact opposite of wow's number crunch), so all the money and shit people earn right now will become literally irrelevant

people struggle to get 10g/day right now, and in 50 patch a single quest gives like 30g (lol) - but fodder/basic mats stay same price as 45 patch because those don't scale to quest rewards & mob rewards

$bots galore$

[Mahou]

I can't wait till the level cap comes out.

I'm also looking at making another character because blade dancer isn't as much fun as I thought it was going to be in the long run.

[YoshL]

in the middle of getting a second char to 45, sin is stupid fun (lol infinite stealth)
