End-Game Weapon Question.
Hi Basil.
So as you might have guessed from my title, I'm having a little trouble deciding on my end-game weapon. There are 2 options, VIP Pole Arm or Purple Surfboard.
[header]*Note: The good news is that I managed to pot my PSB (the bad news is that it's 2lined -_-). So yeah I see very convincing statements from the PSB department, so let me ask another question.... How much would my VIP worth? (you can see the details on it below). Preferably Yellonde pricing.[/header]
First of the VIP Pole Arm: [url=http://i1107.photobucket.com/albums/h388/Jorden271/MapleStory2011-07-1319-30-02-72-1.jpg?t=1310779115]This.[/url]
If it's hard to read the stats on it are:
+8 STR
+4 DEX
124 Attack (clean)
Slow
(pot)
+6% Total Damage
+120 MaxHP (o_o)
Now onward to the PSB: [url=http://i1107.photobucket.com/albums/h388/Jorden271/MapleStory2011-07-1319-30-11-13-1.jpg?t=1310777720]This.[/url]
If it's hard to read the stats on it are:
99 Attack (clean)
+5 Speed
Fast
(no pot)
Now, obviously in pure attack the VIP wins. But I want to know which is should I stick with? I want to scroll my end-game weapon complete with 50% so getting enough 50% Pink Scrolls and White Scrolls for safety requires a large sum of money, so I can't make them both end-game. Also take note that the PSB has no pot, so I will have to risk potting it and if it doesn't work buy a new one (which can cost some money).
Please do explain yourself when answering to the prior question.
Oh and just a small social disadvantage when people see you carrying a VIP wep (in a small server like Yellonde, which is kind of rare I guess) they instantly want to buy it, or assume you have money (lol, I don't, I really don't) so I keep getting traded for one of the followings: "i by ur wep", "giv me 100k" (seriously what happened to manners these days?).
Also as you may see in the picture, my equips are not that great (a proof this is no show-off thread). Some have decent pot and good stats to them, but others are completely disposable. Meaning I'm not a rich man, so gaining up money from my current spot can take some time (I hope to learn how to merch and currently have found out that people will pay large amounts of money for face equips, so that's good. Also I'm not completely poor I'm currently in a position of buying 1 PS and 1 WS, lol maybe I am completely poor), so take that in mind on which to sell.
Since you can submit a poll only once every few days (and I already used one), these are the head choices:
1. Sell the PSB (when it will rise in price) and scroll the VIP wep perfectly.
2. Sell the VIP, risk potting the PSB and then scroll it perfectly.
3. Scroll the VIP perfectly for training and bossing, and scroll the PSB decently for PvP.
4. Other.
P.S: If you're wondering why I censored my IGN when you can clearly see it on my Basil ID, just for extra security in case it ends up on a hacking site or whateves (might not protect it much, but just to keep me rest assured).

[quote=coldxkt]1 attack speed = 33 att. I'll let you do the rest.[/quote]
where did u get this figure from? sorry might be a nubby question
[quote=mrdopedude]Scroll both? Keep the VIP for training and PSB for bossing [/quote]
Pink Scrolls are up to 350m and WS aren't far behind... It will take some time to scroll both... Which should I scroll first if I decide to go that way?
I would go for looks. :X Haha. but thats just me
For PvP, we dont really know the mechanics yet. Considering the fact that the other person may run away, VIP would win, unless you think you can get in 1 or 2 extra hits. In other terms, what everyone else above me said is pretty much right.. o-o.
[quote=workitsister]lol in the PSB ss on the left there is a Wh and his ign is (the f word)YesiHACK[/quote]
Lol, don't worry. That's just our local map crasher...
@MmmmmHmm: I'm confused, should I go with the PSB? I saw on top you said go with the VIP, but in the end it sounded like I should go with the PSB.
@boblalaka: Do you mean the pot stats aren't valid during the PvP, or that I just simply can't walk in with a potential weapon?
go with VIP.
like the people that stated earlier, Arans shouldnt really be using slow weps especially a vip polearm xP i heard its the same speed as a frozen tune (not sure if its correct though)
and scrolling the PSB can be better in the long run as its faster and is probably more wanted if you ever want to resell
So yeah check out the note I left above, thanks for all the help so far guys.
Well the good news are that I got pot on my PSB, so anyone can give me a pricing on a the VIP?
Sounds like a lot of thumbs up for the PSB.
It's still an early stage so I'm not quite sure, but just for now anyone has a p/c for my VIP? Preferably Yellonde prices (remember small server, haven't seen any around the FM for months and months).
yeah for like one hit damage on mobs or whatever the VIP but for combos and DPS like good damage on bosses, the PSB
@above: Well I don't mind that much about DPM, since in pure training I could probably (in time) kill LHC monsters in less then a minute. I'm just more concerned about PvP, also of course which one is more payed forward to keep.
