If you were not lucky enough to find them and bought them instead, how much did you pay for your speed tapes? Also, how much total do you have in speed tapes on your outfit as a MHS?


Thanks for your input

i've never looted any but i traded/was given them all.


i never had to buy them i just made friends at the cave that was being constantly camped and made like a deal with them that if they loot a 2-hand speed attachment they wouldcontact me and trade me the skill tape


that or my friend got it when he was camping.


was really great and only took 3-4 days

Cool, so what is your total on 2H speed and can you hit the cap with a PH using specials?

I just bought a 2handed +12 spd tape for 3 mil. IMO it was totally worth it and has helped me a lot with my grind to master. I hit the +25 cap for spd when I was 0/4/02 with all my combined spd enhancements.

I'm new to swordsman myself and am desperately looking for the 2 hand speed tapes or plates on chilastra, but I don't have anywhere near 3 mil to pay for them, or the time, or patience to camp anywhere for em Guess I'll just have to hope one of my friends gets some and wants to help me

I payed upwards of 8 million, but well worth it when I made more in the week after I got my speed cap. I had to pay6 mil for the first +8, then 1.5 mil for +7. I also use +1 plates in composite armor, so in total I have about 23 speed. Unless you can kill high level mobs you probably won't find the skilltapes on your own, unless you camp "that" cave.

which is boring as **edit**.


only reason i camped it was it was the only way to know you will get good skill mods. cuz killing high end mobs you are not likly to get that many good skill mods unless you go to the aa'kun cave. they drop good +5 skill mods alot more often tehn ns do :/

I'm not sure how else you expect to get the enhancers, either through sheer luck or just paying for them outright. You're going to have to do one or the other, and killing nighsisters is a good way to get both at the same time. I know I was not very lucky with the drops I got(12 melee,12 int, 9 droid complex?, 25 polearm eva. seas). Again you will need to kill many of them, but then it's the same for pretty much any mob in order to actually get loot.

I looted a +4 from a treasure chest before they became broken.

I'm working up my bank account to buy a +18 plate.

Currently at five million, expecting to pay 15 million
