Alright here's the scenario. I need to buy a nice lvl 68/72 +5 weapon. I have around 60 million gold but I also have around 50-60 weapon elixirs. Should I a) Just buy a lvl 72 +5 weapon for around 20-25 million and sell the elixirs or b) Buy any one and use the elixirs to +5 the weapon (I've not had a lot of experience with alchemy).

Yeah, on Sparta you can buy a 72+7 for 40-60m. You can also buy a 72+5 for 10-30m. I suggest you just buy. You can always sell the elixirs for 300k each and if you got 50 of them, you'll make 15m. Which means you can buy an already pimped 72+5 weapon for virtually all your weapon elixirs. Sounds like a bargain. Anyways, good luck :)

They seem to be going for a lot higher on Odin. I've not seen any 72+5 spear for under 20 million.

Take a good look at the other criteria of the weapons first. If the weapon without + on it is much better try to level it up. If both are about the same it's easier to buy the +5. Some weapons have a bad luck on them and you can't level them up to +5. It will cost you a lot of silk for nothing.

Sell the elixirs than buy a pimped weapon. :)

buy, its easier, you can find one pimped with most things you want
and begin using it right away, if you try to make it yourself which you should be able to do, you will take a lot of time to get each item
(+, blues, etc)

good luck
8) 8)

Buy a 72+5/+6 Weapon, then buy some cheap 85 weapons, and use the elixirs to +5/+7 the 85 weapons. If you have enough luck to get them to +5, or +7, you can sell them 40mill-300mill

Sounds like a plan. Lvl 72+5 weapons are hard to find though, and the ones that are on sale are always like 40+ million for some reason. I've seen 9D +5 weps go for cheaper than 8D +5.

Well the 8D were pimped up before the last big upgrade. Some players probably invested a small dollar fortune to get them that high. I guess they want to recover their loss.....

I think this is the best option for you. =)
