    Old old OLD news, dude. We've seen plenty of threads from people with 3x -int on their daggers/claws/fists since G16 became a thing. It's an awesome farming weapon and odds aren't that high but most of us don't care enough about them to even bat an eyelid anymore. b:chuckle

    those are ancient on ht, made by same guy that has 3x-.05 fists, well account shared with his sister

    pretty sure after 3 years both still have perfect shards in them, remember the guy tried to fist me to death in nw with that bm...just nope

    some people just got a lot more luck than brains

    Indeed, how is it possible that someone +12's those daggers, with triple interval AND still shards it with only perfect garnet shards. It should at least be gems.

    They're cheap? I don't bother to put in anything higher than perfect shards for that very reason. (but I'm also not running around with overpowered gears or a **** made out of compressed cash hanging out of my panda's shorts. So maybe it's a bad comparison.)

    Indeed, I have seen many rrr9 +10 players with flawless shards b:laugh

    What I think is that maybe those people shard their gear before refining and now they fear that if they remove those stones they can lose the refines. But as far as I know it is safe to clean a refined gear from stones(unless they recently changed it b:shutup )

    Temporary shards. G7 to G9 shards offer 25% to 40% or so of what a G11/G12 shard would offer.... and only cost about 1% (depending on your server's economy) of the price. A very good investment for what you get out of it.

    Refines, on the other hand, have always made more sense to try and deal with first. After all, the difference between a +11 weapon and a +12 weapon is about the same as the difference between an unrefined weapon and a +6 weapon. To look at it in a different way, you get more out of going from +9 to +12 than you got from refining to +9 in the first place. Which makes the lower (aka cheap) refines not really all that valuable when you look at them as an investment and are choosing between great shards or great refines.

    Of course, for people who can throw cash at the screen none of that matters and they have no reason not to have both shards AND refines ready once they get their ideal weapon.

    you can; now its even possible (as of the nw expansion so uh...quite some time ago) to replace a single shard in gear with another one (without affecting any of the other shards)

    those have had perfect shards in them for 3 years or so

    also price for flawless->garnet gem is very similar to 11->12 price
    not to mention wtf wouldnt at least get the weekly incomparables for that

    maths:
    garnet gem 65-75m for +35patk = 1.857-2.142 milion / p.atk
    12* : 375-450m for +187 patk =2.005-2.406 million /patk

    so actually garnet gems are more cost effective...well a bit depending on prices on your server

    remember these calculations are for daggers, which have the worst refine rate(well along with fist/claw), for other weps is a good bit different ( about 2:1 refine bonus ratio)
