maplestory never really did make sense. im sure many people run into the case where two shops are next to eachother. one shop has weapon A for 10mil. the other shop has weapon A for 15mil. but the shop with the selling for 15mil gets sold while the 10mil is unsold.

also, every magicians claims that "their magic formula is crappy", but it can still take billions to obtain extremely well scrolled magician equipment. spending billions to increase your damage by about 5k?

it seems these kinds of things revolve around reckless spending. possibly because there is no real consequence of reckless spending since its only a game. its not like you lose your house or anything.

what if someone put a mortgage on their house just to gach enough to get one/afford one ^_^; and I doubt that would happen but you never know there are people like Tiger after all

The price is worth it for insanely well-equipped lukless archmages and bishops =p

all i can say is...

level 70 ice wand, clean, all 99,999k at skeles Smile

i'm a VERY happy girl! (ok so this may not really be THAT epic as pre-boost with my 130 light staff-approx-90 more MA than the lvl 70 but still--i was doing 91k dmg. but WOW....no more dropping down to those damn 85k- that leaves the old skeles left for a second hit.

with my ice wand i do the same dmg but my hubby is so thrilled to see my finally use something he bought me (poor guy i have everything i want already) and it's amusing to be using a non-scrolled w/e stats lvl 70 wand to do stable nonstop max dmg Big Grin

now if only they would consider adding the dmg reducer.... albeit as it stands now at least i can give these over to my priest/bishop to use when im using her instead of my IL
