One more mining question

Craiger · 23rd January 2008, 10:43 AM

Does anybody use any Shadow, Copper, Bronze or Agapite ingots?

I have been a miner for ten years. I have made a bucket of gold from selling ingots, but seriously; why would anybody buy these ingots?

I can sell Iron, Gold, Verite, and Valorite like hotcakes. But the rest have NO demand. Any of you crafters out there wanna take a swing at that?

Bod filling would be my first guess...and I think shadow is one of the better ores to enhance with? decorative items...I'm sure many people have different uses.

Bronze sells to people looking to enhance for fire damage (if I recall correctly). In general, I found the low color ores to sell well to people filling BODs, Gold for luck (though much less in recent years), and I've never been able to mine enough of the highest 3 to keep stocks up. Of course, I quit selling several years ago after I bought my Keep, so my info might be of limited value.

Whoops: Also, Valorite and Verite sell fast to people looking for Cooperative Collection points. Same reason Frostwood is so expensive.

Dull copper is the absolute best to enhance with. Take your weapon to 225 with POF, then enhance with DC. Instant 510 durability.

Bronze, shadow and agapite are really nice for tweaking damages on Vampurai weapons, since high elemental damage cuts down on the need for consecrate.

Copper&Bronze are crap. Agapite is needed for PoF BODs (10-15 normal Agapite BODs) which can be sold ~60k in my shard.

Shadow is another matter. If I were in your shard, I would buy all your shadow for 25g per ingot. I can easily make 9-10 g. per ingot profit in a short time.

The shadow heater shields money maker still works? I thought the adaptive economy would have wiped that out...

Bronze ingots rocks to make slayer weapons! I've made many super slayers out of good old Bronze ingots and a bronze hammer.

Hmm.. Never had such luck. Which runic did you use?

StoneCypher · 29th January 2008, 09:21 PM

Bronze runic hammer

Yields high amounts of slayers from my experience. Although, there aren't many attributes or high end percentages to the weapons like mana leech n such. Trade off I guess :/
