Only gold weapons that have the skins I really like and I know im not ganna sell ya. Like my Brass knuckles or my deldrimore/runic blade. To bad we can't customized shields lol.

kostolomac · Jul 29, 2008, 06:54 PM // 18:54

I don't customize since I'm a caster.

Thizzle · Jul 29, 2008, 07:25 PM // 19:25

I never customize greens and rarely any other weapons.

MithranArkanere · Jul 29, 2008, 07:47 PM // 19:47

Only martial weapons.

There is no point in customizing something if it that customization will have no effect.

And +20% damage to attacks or professions that have not attack skills is what I call 'no effect'.

They must rework the customization.
And add effects for shields and foci too.

Tender Wolf · Jul 29, 2008, 10:13 PM // 22:13

I don't customize any weapons unless they're the ones that come that way (like BMP weapons). I alternate weapons between all the characters on my account so there's no point in customizing.

Dallcingi · Jul 29, 2008, 10:25 PM // 22:25

I only customize things that I know I can keep on getting like crafter items or greens... I wont customize golds... especially since I normally play monk anyways.

When I heard of charr to be one of the main enemies in EotN, I customized a non inscr r8 15^50 feathered longbow it's 20/20, +25% against charr and +20% and it does some really nice damage. no regrets

And I gave one with the same stats (platinum bow) to my friend which he also customized.

Dual splinter barrage, I just love all those numbers on the screen

Tyla · Jul 29, 2008, 11:48 PM // 23:48

The only time I wouldn't is if it's a bow for pulling. Basically, any long / flatbow which I can care less about.
Apart from that, you'd be extremely stupid not to do so if you know you're keeping the character.

Editted because Avarre is true, and:

i don't usually customise but i did customise a req 9 eternal bow that has no inherent modifier, to give it extra damage. i upgraded it with silencing and fortitude mod. i gave it to my BHA hero magrid.

oh ...if i ever wanted a customised weapon, i'll get the BMP ones.

i think customisation for PvE wont be necessary. that extra 20% damage won't do much especially if u r up against lvl 28 monsters. in PvP, it is different. all opponents are lvl 20.

Shadowspawn X · Jul 30, 2008, 02:17 AM // 02:17

I customize everything there is no reason not to because its bad to hold a weapon uncustomized. It is an inferior weapon without the customization and the price will only drop as far as resell value. So I sell immediately or customize immediately, holding uncustomized is lose-lose.

around · Jul 30, 2008, 02:20 AM // 02:20

I even customize caster weapons for extra wand damage.

Every little helps.

You do 20% extra damage for a measly cost. When you realize that people are willing to shell out tons extra for a 15^50 over a 14^50, it's a small price to pay.

i think people pay for that "tons extra" for the sake of "perfection" , not really the 1% difference . well, u know, people love "perfection" .

Not customized your weapons if your a war, derv, sin, para is stupid.

Monkey Slayer · Jul 30, 2008, 04:16 AM // 04:16

Nope. Play an ele, so no need to custo my staff, and I have a perfect axe I could sell at any time for my Ursan weps.

eggs0wn · Jul 30, 2008, 04:19 AM // 04:19

No I don't. I'm a Ranger and I know I should but I just don't want to not be able to get rid of it since I go through weapons a lot. The only customized weapon I have is my Destroyer Bow because it is automatically customized.

And if I ever get a Dyrad Bow, I'll customize that.

This is exactly what I do.

I've got 11 post searing character slots, each with the full stable of heroes, each has a set of max damage weapons. If I can arm about 200+ guys with the max stuff I find on the ground, from chests, collector stuff, and /bonus junk, anyone can... The only reason I can conceive of having to swap out a hero's gear that much is HB, and if you're going in there, may as well roll a PvP character and get free max customized gear anyway...

I don't have the money for all the mods and things I'd need to make a good weapon, what I get for drops is crap. The only weapons I have are greens and I have maybe one for each profession. That's the reason I have to switch them around.

Enough flaming me everyone, all I did was answer the topic question. So stop flaming.

MisterB · Jul 30, 2008, 05:31 AM // 05:31

Everything I equip is customized, with the exception of a handful of lesser-used wands and staves, +5 energy sword/axe/spear, or novelty weapons, like candy cane, banana scythe, or ogre knife. My heros get /bonus, collector, crafted, green, or drops, but they are all customized.

There's no good reason not to customize weapons for a martial character. Period. It's only 10g to transform a max white drop to a better weapon than an uncustomized one.
