Budget for perfecting a claw using spell traces?
Just curious to those who have made their claws from scratch, how much meso did it cost to spell trace using the 15% +9 att option and getting it to 10 stars?
Also if you can state how much you bought your clean slates and protection scrolls for.

first off i succed about 3 out of 10 15% spell traces, 4 if im lucky, i know thats hard to believe but i have pretty good luck with scrolls, i spent about 30k nx on shield scrolls, 2-3b (give or take a few hundred mil) on slates, about 4b-5b on protections, 3 star aees, and aees, it roughly costed me 8-9b to perfect it with 8 stars, i spent about 18-20m per slate and 375-410m per protection scroll, hope this helps!
Took me 15b to perf mine. (without stars)
Costed me 3,23b to perfect my faf claw with 15% spell traces + slates. This doesnt include price of the claw btw (Claw costed 520m doe T.T) I had some 5star 50% scrolls lying around so it took me 1 prot scroll, which were at the time 220m to get to 5stars, so in total perfected spell traced claw with 5 EE costed me 3,53b.
Just as a side note I got lv 89 diligence atm, not sure if it works with spell traces, like many in this thread I have heard mixed information about it working.
30% =7Att 7x10=70+201 and since each star gives 6 attack it would be 301 :O. but God wouldn't that take 2bil worth of css lol? I guess that sort of is better than going for 10 stars :o Thanks man!
I recently perfected a rod for a friend of mine using 70%s. The total cost for all the CSS+hammers+2 stars was 3b~. Seeing that 30% success is a lot less then 70% id say your looking at around double the price for 300m.att goal. Mine with +5's and 2 stars resulted in 263m.att. I'd recommend you use 30%s apposed to landing 10 stars on a 70%ed rod due to the cost of protection scrolls and theyre not 100% per each star of course. Hope this helps
[quote=Blackinup]I got a question how much would be for 30%? I'm trying to get 300 magic attack I just want to find the easiest way. 70% scrolling with 10 stars or 30% scrolling with 5 stars?[/quote]
assuming you mean 5/10 star enhances on a staff, the enhancing process will be way more expensive than the 30/70% scrolling and the weapon itself. better off just buying 5a bunch of staves and using 30 without clean slating it until a bunch of the 30s work

i made one just now to satisfy the need for chuck scrolling. (i have level 60 something dilligence right now, so could be cheaper)
claw was 2b clean, hammers were 50m (passed 1/2), passed 4/9 15% originally, and then it took 269 clean slates to finish the last 6 slots.
haven't got to enhancing since the server check soon but in total it was:
2b for clean claw, 6.456b for clean slates (@ 24m each), 80m for 18k spell traces, and epic for 170m. that's a 8.754b for a 0 star 15%'d claw at epic in windia.
*note: there were like 4 times where 30+ clean slates failed in a row, so not sure how accurate this all is. also, there was a one time proc with the guild clean slate skill.
i think it'd be a little cheaper in bera overall (assuming you have the same scrolling luck) since fafnir claws aren't as expensive and clean slates are cheaper as well.
8.5-9b with 25% chance and 10% css.
22b with 15% chance and 10% css.

Shrug, some people claim they work, others claim they don't. After personally tossing a hundred or so 15% traces onto random stuff with level 100 diligence, I feel like it's pretty close to 25%.
9b for the cost sounds pretty reasonable considering prime scrolls aren't easy to obtain anymore. Nice! I might try to scroll my own weapon in the future if I can't find a primed version in the market.
It costed me approx. 9b to scroll my Fafnir claw with 15% +9 scrolls using spell traces, not including the price of the claw itself.
I also got 5 stars on it which made it go from +90 att to +110 att.
I had an extra 4% success rate for scrolling from my guild's skill.
My diligence level isn't that high either.
About spell traces and diligence, a friend did do some testing of it, and she pretty much got a 25% success rate, so that makes it seem rather likely that it does work, but this is by no means conclusive.
[quote=xBustyAngelz]I'm scared to spell trace my claw because there's a good chance they will release new event scrolls soon[/quote]
There is no news for better scrolls in the forseeable future(6months) unless the scrolls come back for next anniversary
I spent around 5b perfecting my claw with spell traces and another 2b 5 starring it (I got unlucky there). Keeping in mind that the value of the claw wasn't considered, and that the first 2 slots were passed when it was clean (2/8).

I always hear mixed things about diligence and spell traces. I won't say they work or not but it doesn't hurt to have maxed diligence. I will confirm though that CS don't apply sadly. If they did that would help so much more than the fail 30 for a slot rate I have now
Well I'm currently in the middle of perfecting my fafnir. I'm about 700mil in so far (mostly from CSS, the spell traces cost pocket change) and only at +6
[quote=Axnslicer]Supposedly diligence works on 15% spell traces, and honestly if it didn't, scrolling with them would be too miserable to bother with. Going with 25% success rate for level 100 diligence, ignoring the 4% success and the 4% item upgrade count salvation from guild skills we get
10 slots /0.25 chance of passing a slot per trace = 40 traces
Therefore you need 30 +1 = 31 successful slates +2 hammers
Clean slates are roughly 22 M atm, so that's around 6-7 B to perfect with 15% traces.
For the ten enhancements
2 prots to get to 5 stars using 50% 5 star scrolls
1/0.5+1/0.4+1/0.3+1/0.2+1/0.1 = 23 ish AEEs+Prots to get to 10 stars.[/quote]

i didnt do it i pinnacled but its not worth it at all so i wouldnt bother with that even
from my 15% tracing experience though , usualy one of 10 succeeds
