ok ok heres your lances to keep( i can not "price" anything because it varies server to server but heres what to keep and auction)
lva 500+ unsliced(speed doesnt matter much) unless its below 5.0
vl 400+ unsliced(speed doesnt matter much) unless its below 4.0
o yeah ns lances 700+(unsliced) to make up for there no ap
guide to dots....
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Don't forget the mods. Like Ark said in a different thread, even if the mods are great but the stats on the weapon are terrible, then the weapon is junk because no one would use it just for the mods (except terrain negotiation). Mods are icing on the cake.
If the stats are player-made quality or below, it is not worth more than player-made ones.
Importantly: Just because you looted it doesn't mean it should automatically be worth anything. Even if it does in fact say "Nightsister Lance" doesn't mean anything. Pikemen destroy dozens or more of these lances every month with a disappointed sigh.

strength is the tick value of which the dot will do its damage every 10 seconds or more depending on what type it is 200str + only ones worth keeping unless thier fire or disease in that case 150+
potency - this is the % that the dot has to stick each time a attack is landed you can have a 900 str dot but if your potency isnt good dont bother 50% or better
charges 2k or more -1 charges is infinite
duration anything over 100s
so if your lance is say
200str
60% potency
-1 charges
you have a great lance
if there is anything you think i should add post and lets get this stickied

Very good summation of what is worth keeping!
Sticky this thing, quadruple the font size on it and put it in bright flashing red letters, please.

great summary. sticky please.
just one thing to add. dots on mind are much more desirable than action/health dots.
if you got a weapon with poor base damage but a nice mind dot, its still useful for the pvpers out there.

Great post--I'm glad I ran into this thread before I made an inquiry about my NS lances on the trade forum.
