Thread: Need advice on crafting Scythes

Hi everyone,


I have a dilemna and need some assistance.


I have recently come into several scythe schematics, through doing the quest, or through trade, and now I want to start crafting them.

What I ideally want is 7x Yellow cubes and 7xSolid agents, both with better exceptional stats, but I realise this is a pipe-dream being a new(ish) ws and so still don't have vast resources of cash or cores that myself/guildmates have looted.


My question is in several parts:


1. Would you ever waste a scheme usage on less than 7 identical parts?

2. Would you use a run of 8 cubes / 8 agents in the crafting process? If so what to do with the left over one?

3. Would you ever use white/green cubes, or ever make it without solid agents?

4. If you did 3, how to sell your "sub-standard" scythe when all the kiddies want the bestest scythe on the server?


Regards,


Kaf

1: yes


2: 7 is the max.


3: yes


4: scythes are in short enough supply that I have no problems selling any scythe whether its a great yellow+great agent or white only.

Its all about return on investment. I pay 300k for a scythe schem, 20k for yellow cubes, 2k for white cubes, and 15k for agents.


I sell a white cube scythe for 250k so even if I only made 2 using the schem i can still turn a profit.


These prices are subject to server acceptability of course.
