My sin has rank 8 top, int cape, the hh99 ornaments, and bracers and boots, so Im 3.33 aps with hook and thorn, and 2.86 aps with rank 8.


But from here I want to get 5.0aps. I see I need nirvana pants and dagger to get 5.0, but I how I go about getting those. What I mean is for those I need 250 uncannies and 100 raps which are so expensive. I would farm nirvana for them but everyone mostly asks for 4.0/5.0aps ppl.

Then when I go into 3.33 parties they wonder why Im using hook and thorn dagger, but they ask for 3.33 aps.

Now that 2x is over i see totally no one world chatting for nirvana squads. Do ppl really wait for 2x events to come to run some nirvanas


Buying the uncannies and raps is really outright expensive.
Also I would make my own parties but its hard finding ppl for nirvana and I end of wasting so many teles.

How do you get those nirvana without straight up cashing shopping for themb:cry

    Make a squad yourself.


    Or be persistent, you will get a squad

    Plus on a side note sell your hook and thorns and use the rank8 daggers

    Don't use the hook and thorn. If I invited a sin to nirvana and he walked in with hook and thorn daggers, I would kick him instantly. Use rank 8 daggers.

    This is your problem. You sit around waiting for other people to invite you. Get up and make your own squad.

    There are squads who only ask for DDr`s not only twitching heroin addicts, in addition, you

    can make your own squad like Rawrgh and Hook and thorn = **** compared to r8 daggers,

    FORGET that useless 0.5 interval on them.

    R8 has been the new minimum for the longest time now. R8, R9, and Nirvana are the only acceptable weapons these days. b:scorn

    you reached a point where you HAVE to cash shop to improve your gear.
    did you think all those countless Sins actually farmed their "farmgear"?
    its ridiculously ironic that they cash shop to get into farm-squads but thats just what happens nowadays ;)

    If you want it the fast way, then yes go for cash-shop. I do not recommend this because there are so many other ways to get money. Playing the market nowadays is very effective. My Sin is almost 4 aps r8 and most of the armor is +5, completly without cash-shopping rl money.

    This is just a very sad statement. Despite this attitude you and others have, you don't HAVE to cashshop AT ALL to improve gear. Wonderful advice to give someone -.-

    There's various other ways to make coin. Merchanting, farm/sell TT, sell FC heads (collective gasp), or form your own Nirvana squads. If you're being neglected squads because of APS, you can be sure there's others who are too. Start forming low APS/any DD squads in WC and gather these ppl up for runs.

    but dont i need them to make hh99 barrior thorn
    By all means keep them for decomping, but don't use them. Stow them in bank and use rank8 until you're ready to decomp them. Or sell them, and buy a cheaper base set (no refine/shard) for decomping.

    Hint... farm something (not vana) for upwards of 1mill per run with a partner.

    Get a good customer base

    Uh, there is no point you have to cash shop.

    Knowing what to farm, and farming a lot of it, is more than sufficient enough, never mind being able to merchant.

    Unfortunately this mirrors the real world where there are plenty of people unwilling to take the steps necessary to get to an end they desire, and want to try and blame somebody else or **** on the accomplishments others made to make themselves and their laziness more acceptable.

    Without a doubt there are plenty of cash shoppers but as mentioned they are the impatient ones. Hilarious how I can farm Nirvana daggers with a 3.33/5 APS BM who uses +5 TT100 in a single 2x, then farm the daggers from +4 to +10 and my wife's Deicide claws from +5 to +10 all in the next 2x we do. When you open your eyes at some point (which may be never, sorry, I'm a cynic in your case) it might reveal what you can do.
