Would you Risk It?

Hey all!

i have a quick question

i have 5 dbs and a normal lvl 8 2 soc bow.

would it work if i tried upgrade quality in TC? 1db- ref 2 soc bow lvl 8
1db- uni 2 soc bow
1db-eli 2 soc bow
1-2db-super 2 soc bow
a friend of mine did that once
but i am not sure if it would work.

how would you guys get a super 2 soc bow from 5 dbs?

Would you risk it in TC?
Or would you buy uni 2 soc bow low lvl and use 5 dbs on it?

Your help would be greatly appreciated

P.S. how could i get 2 dbs super fast? i am a lvl 110 archer

buy for 10-20mill a elite 2 socket bow (1 db) and then you got 4 dbs left to make it super ^^

don't ask for our opinions and then go right back to what u wanted to do in the first place. The other guys are right. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME!!!!!
Get an elite 2 soc bow for 1 or 2 db's and super it from there. And get lucky time. never super anything less than uni quality. There are a few exceptions, like if you find a blessed item or something like that, but in general, i don't waste my time unless it's elite. I say that because i wasted 5 db's before trying to get a normal 2 soc bow to super, and it only ended up being uni by the time it was done. I've taken several elites and super'd them with one or 2 db's. I still have that uni bow to remind me not to be stupid next time.

well, try get the highest lvl quality 2 soc... BUT make sure that its below lvl 70 ish, the lower the better...

From my experience I would only try to make a normal item super if it is -5 damage or has a socket (other equipment than weapons). You should take some time to look around for bows that have a higher quality, aim for a unique as they are cheap and likely to go to elite in 1 db. If you used your 5 dbs on your normal 2 socket bow you will probably get it to elite.

Hope this helps.

I would do that but eli 2 soc bows go for 4 dbs in my server :(
then i would only have 1 db left to super it which would be risking it...

Since i am not a db buyer...i am just gonna buy super 1 soc bow and then lvl 120 then water farm till i get 5 dbs then make it two soc...

or would you buy eli 2 soc bow (wait till some1 sells for 3 dbs) and then try super it in TC for 1-2 dbs?

get a blessed uni 2 soc or get an elite 2 soc bow. either way will be better than supering a normal bow. u should be able to find a 2 soc elite bow for one db. find an elite and offer one db, be patient, they may decline, but keep checking back if they haven't sold offer again and say, "my offer still stands, i'll give you one db for your elite 2 soc bow" or something like that. but patience always, always, pays off. just remember that. And never super anything that's less than uni. unless it's a non weapon, non armor soc'd gear. b/c u can get soc'd uni armor real cheap.
