Lamp of Dazzlement

If you ask yourself: ''are Lamps of Dazzlement worth opening'', look at this table and the comment I wrote.

*I won't add results of other players, since I want to be sure that the resulsts are 100% true
*This list will be updated every time I open a new one



Conclusion:
Level 3: 181 opened, 175,64kk loss
After 178 level 3 lamps I got something of value (Slot Extender Medium, worth 85kk). Now after opening 181 lamps, spending 289,6kk.. If you count 10% cash back from the **** items + potions of luck and the 85kk I get for the SEM, I still have 175,64kk which I lost, opening level 3 lamps.

So, I won't open these anymore.

Level 4: 58 opened, 97,04kk loss
After opening 12 I've got Sigmetal EoF+7, which was worth 70kk. In total I've spent 185,6kk counting 10% cash back from the **** and potions of luck + the 70kk, I still have a loss of 97,04kk.

I keep opening these untill I have opened 100.

Current total loss: 272,68kk.

my oppinion not worth it , but as now they are 800k ( lvl 4 ) , u may give it a try

@T0pCat
I'm just opening lamps that I find, wanna see what it gets me if I open every lamp I get (it eventualy should spit out a eox+8 or perfect core X) and cover all costs for opening.

Buying lamps is not worth it (they would never release a 'easy profit'-system), but the question is about finding them, then opening them.

[T0pCat]

well i drop lots of lvl 4 lamps , the problem is the key that for opening one is 3.2kk , and most of them resulted into luck potion for me

I got eog+7 on level 1 lamp 1/1 open

[bartbilf]

Spent over 100kk just on the opening money, did not even get back the 100kk, but I will keep opening them (if there is 1 good item every 500 lamps, it should end up in profit)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After 15 level 4 lamps I got a SigEOG+7.. up till now I still don't have any profit, 200kk+ spent on opening lamps.

At least you got a SigEof+7 o; The best item i ever got from a lamp was a SEL back with the normal chaos lamps.

Around 30kk as far as i remember, not that much but still better than nothing, i remember the times when you could npc chaos lamps for 500k lol

@Acid
yah, that was the only time the lamps actualy brought profit + some people thought they still had to sell them for 250k in afk shop.. reseller's dream:P these new lamps suck out more alz than they return o.O

[strontklit]

Cabal made these lamps so that you could get items out of it that you probably would never find by just playing, they didn't make them to get you to make profit (so if you really want profit you better sell them)

imo the fun and tension when you open them and the joy when you get something good out of it is worth the risk of the alz

Ohohooo yesterday I opened 30 High lamps and got eof+7/eog+7 and a bunch of entries xD.Finally the luck struck me..

[bartbilf]

@[GM]DeathAngel nice profit with the eof+7 ;O But well, if it only takes around 100 lamps to get it, then the price will go down an enormous amount, which isn't that bad, eof+8 is another story ;D

Level 3 lamps up till now: ****
Total spent to open 95 lamps: 152kk
Total loss: around 140kk

Level 4 lamps up till now: 69kk epaulette
Total spent to open 34 lamps: 108,8kk
Total loss: around 20kk

Total spent: 260,8kk
Total loss: around 160kk

Starting to lose some confidence in this system, it seems like it is just here to suck out Alz out of the economy.

[bartbilf]

changed list into an excel table, this way it is easier to see what 'drops' most out of the lamps.

Up till now.. just lost Alz.
