i usually customise bows/swords/axes/spears if i know i dont plan on remaking a character. Magic weapons i generally don't. I just hate when i decide to reroll someone though and can't keep the weapon because it's customised.

Unless you are casting/kiting 100% of time when enemies are around you should be wanding them. If not, you are deadweight to the the team at that moment. Well, at least in my opinion.

Customize, always. If I'm selling something, I sell it, if I outgrow something, I hero it, if I no longer need it, I salvage it or merch it. If I use it, I customize it. Most of the gear I use is mid range to low end stuff or BMP gear( that stuff looks awesome). My favorite weapons are a greater dark scimitar, a R9 grape sephis, a R9 grape max Warlord Shield, a grape colossal pick, a r9 sun&moon(bought for 15k +a crap gold) my tengu sword, a tetsubo hammer from the Z-chest, a gold hand hand axe from a chest and a briar blade. All customized, not much chance to sell them, they were pretty so I use them.

I customize any physical damage weapons. I dont give a shit about the price. Even if it's 100k + 100e or something.

Only greens, collector, crafter and non-caster weapons.

I'd never customize an staff, since that would be silly. There's no advantage in doing so. When you are a caster, you cast, you don't attack.

I customize almost all weapons for Warrior, Ranger, Assassin, Derv, and Paragon. I never customize stuff on casters.

Nope.

Its not like I'm every wanding anyways. Good offensive builds should synergy so you are always casting. Besides, that way I can give stuff to my heroes or other characters later.

I customize every martial arts weapon I use ... Don't care for resell value ... I don't customize bows or spears as i don't have a ranger nor a para ... If I did have one of those, I would've customized their weapons too.

I don't customize as I have no room to keep the weapons I ditch when I buy a new one, so I may as well sell them, not to mention that PvE is already easy enough to beat without an extra 20% damage.

I use BMP weapons on account of the awesome Tengu and Mursaat skins. They come customized, so yeah. Rare skin items get sold.

I don't customize staves and wands. Only melee weapons and bows.
So far only my ranger' bows have been customized because I use her in PvP a lot.

Exactly. If you care enough to buy max weapons, why wouldn't you care enough to customize them? I customize everything, caster weapons included.

And here's what I do: when a weapon is getting old on a character, I transfer it to a hero. The hero was just using a collector/bonus weapon before.

Many are the times I've wanded some poor fleeing chump to death in AB (esp Shadow Form users). Also, in PvE attacking is a way to give orders to heroes and henchies.

EDIT: Oh wait, I thought of something I don't customize: weapons whose req I don't meet, like my spears. I don't customize those since it has no effect, and I really am not attacking with them. If for some reason I have an opportunity to attack something, I swap to a wand/staff.

I customize pretty much everything that I know I want to keep.

If I like a particular skin and I know I'll be using the weapon for a long time, I always customize it.

I customize anything none caster weapon I intend on using, because I'm not an idiot who likes to less damage than I can do. 20% matters in PvP.

Some of my war's and derv's weapons are customized (the ones I won't get tired of anytime soon, like my Oni Blade and my Ancient Scythe). Other than that, I don't customize anything because they're mostly caster weapons and I don't attack with them, and can resell them if I get tired of them.
