Upgrade recommendations for my Buccaneer?
Hey everyone.
I've managed to gather up about 3.1bil in funds, and possibly another 650m once I sell my old knuckle (from [url=http://www.basilmarket.com/forum/2602850]here[/url])
I feel it's time to upgrade some items now. A lot of my old equip were outdated, so right now I'm sitting on 5/6 almost-clean Empress.
My Emp Knuck right now is just a temporary one until I can find a reasonably priced scrolled knuckle.
Currently:
118 atk, 0 slot Empress Knuck (2L rare)
Clean Empress Hat (3L Rare)
Clean Empress Overall (3L Rare)
Clean Empress Gloves (3L Unique, 6% STR)
5 Atk, 0 slot Empress Shoes (3L Unique, 9% STR, Haste)
Clean Empress Cape (2L Rare)
MoN Pendant
Half Earrings (3L Epic, 12% STR)
Sharp Brown Buckle Belt (2L Rare, 3% STR)
Evo Ring III Level 10 (10 Atk)
Explorer's Critical Ring (2 Atk, 10% Crit rate, 10% Crit damage)
Crusader's Zeal Ring (2 Atk)
Tempest Ring (2 atk, 6% STR)
Tempest Shoulder (3 Atk, 3% STR)
[b]2/21/13 Update[/b]:
I've bought a clean Empress Cape for 1.1bil, completing my Empress set bonus. I also bought a 9% STR, Haste, Empress Shoe for 660mil.
After having sold my old knuckle and some other stuff, I'm left with 2b for remaining upgrades.
[b]2/22/13 Update[/b]:
Made a few upgrades today. I felt pretty rushed to get the Tempest accessories because they seem to be inflating fast.
6% STR, 3% DEX 3L Tempest Ring for 275m,.
3% STR 3L Tempest Shoulder for 120m.
12% STR 3L Epic Half Earrings for 440m.
Also sold some things, so I'm up to 2.8bil remaining funds. I think my next steps are %STR Belt, cubing my Empress equips, and saving for a scrolled knuckle.
Any input is much appreciated, thank you~

If this helps in anyway with your search for a knuckle, and good luck tryna find a good one because it is sometimes difficult to find an endgame knuckle [/quote]
Thanks for the help! If that's a Scania price, I might have to add a few bil for my price.
[quote=jacob510]@TS: That price seems seems right. I definitely would've bought it.
Your name is censored for some reason.[/quote]
I'm aware that it is. I've asked for them to fix it, or to at least let me change my name. No response. :s
Anyway, I have 2bil in funding left. Probably double that once I get NX this weekend.
I suppose my next step is upgrading the % STR on my earring and belt, and then saving for a scrolled knuckle. Hopefully there will be some around with CS scrolls returned.
[quote=jacob510]I was going to buy that cape [/quote]
Well, for an update. I didn't buy the 6% STR cape, so if you want it it's still there.
What I did buy:
- Clean Empress Cape for 1.1bil. I felt the 600mil on top of this for 6% str was too much, I'm going to try my luck with some cubes once I get NX this weekend.
- Empress Shoes, 5 atk, 0 slots, 9% STR, Decent Haste for 670m. I have no clue if this is an appropriate price or not, it was an impulse buy. Anyone know how much this actually costs?
[quote=Patole]I say buy the knuckle it'll benefit more than the cape.[/quote]
Well they'd both be a 30atk upgrade, with the cape also giving 30% boss and the knuckle costs twice as much. ^^ I feel the cape is more cost effective until I get some more funds. Thanks for your input though.
[quote=SteezyPeter]I find 1.7b VERY reasonable for the cape considering clean ones are 2b usually. I would negotiate to 1.5b if i were you[/quote]
I've seen clean ones for 1.1 ~ 1.5 in Broa, so I was unsure.
[quote=kurandox99]I saw that cape earlier and thought it was like 1.5 - 1.6b. I'd say get the cape and then start working towards a better knuckle, then get epic pot scrolls for your emp armor and cube it (later on).[/quote]
It might have been 1.6b. Either way, I'll go look for it or a similar one in a bit.
[quote=x1mmortality]Get that cape, then a DABR (160m in scania), 12%str earrings for 300m, 6%belt for 100m, then, GM scroll that glove and cube it to 12%str+ or, if you prefer, merch some more and get a 16x knuckle witth %boss and %att or %total.[/quote]
Sounds like a good plan. Also completely forgot I have a GM glove scroll myself. Might as well use it on this. ;p
Thank you all for the input!

Not sure about Broa prices but that is a little high for bera.
[quote=SteezyPeter]Id say get a better knuckle. 116 att isnt enough for an end game knuck[/quote]
I know. I had stated that the knuckle is just temporary until I find a nicely priced end game knuckle. :]
[quote=ChewKokUA]As a pirate your main priority like you said would be to finish the set by getting the cape. Then go for a knuckle. After that start getting %str accessories.[/quote]
Thanks for your input. Do you think 1.7b is a fair price for a 6% STR Empress Cape?
