Ok, heres my problem @_@
I aint the best at keeping money (usually have under 50k at me at one time..) ,nor am I the best merchant, and now im almost level 70, the higher level weapon prices are starting to scare the **** outta me.

I've heard the bad press about Unicorn (TT70 bow) for a while, and I have one in the bank that I got from a freind because I made a video for her and her hubby. Now i'm wondering if I should use it, stay with my TT60 Crossbow, or start CSing like mad...

Honestly, if I dont do somethin' soon, im screwed, H-E-L-P!b:shocked

    Unicorn isn't that bad of a weapon really. It's only painted in a negative spotlight due to W and C being far superior in terms of DPS. Otherwise, it's quite an ok weapon.

    At your level, you should use Wind and the Clouds, it should last until you get 88 and can get Windcatcher. I did that and it worked fine.

    Though yes, on higher levels, the costs get kinda scary. For example, Vast Land on 85 cost me 1,200,000 and that was really cheap. On the other hand, my TT90 crossbow cost me about 6,300,000 or so.
    If you disregard what I say because of who I am or because of the contents of what I said, you are a fool.

    Everyone wants to be different, but when you're different you wish you were normal.

    Wind and clouds is cheaper and better than unicorn period. There's just so much bias against it because it's a slingshot and not cool like a bow. I've gotten 2 W&C molds and just ended up NPCing both because apparently no one wants it for even 50k.

    The Pro archers beat me to it...W&C molds are dirt cheap...25-50K at best. Possibly the best weapon in terms of DPS for archer. I still have and use mine at 85 in most instances.

    Short answer: Wind and the Clouds or Unicorn (I personally recommend W&C).

    Long answer: You need to find some sort of stable income. Your lack of coin is a somewhat bigger issue than a weapon for the 70s.

    Ok guys, thanks for the advice :)
    I sold my old gear, and made 500k, spent some on skills and saving some in my bank.
    Also, a freind in my Faction got me Wind and The Clouds ^^
    Not sure what to do with my Unicorn now, but I may decompose it and sell it off.
