I don't get when people don't customise weapons that they use. If you want to keep your uber rare weapon then sure, but leave it in your storage. If you're going to pull out something to use, you're better off swinging your r13 customised +13while hexed version of the same skin.

For specific farming purposes maybe, +20% vs dwarves if you're alkar faming grenth's footprint for example. Too much hassle for too little gain to be used in normal play imo.

Think my problem is and for I can see from some replys I all rdy have Col, Fell, Ele, Glad and many axes customized all rdy in storage charaters I dont use em anymore, I did in the past as I would mess around with skins depending on wot armor I had but now I just have FoW armor and cry and GoTH sheild suit imo.

And like I sadi above I use a chaos axe wit ha Eternal sheild when I go axe which suits my armor, guess I cahnge back to some others when I get bored, maybe I custmoze that sword after all its only a game lol thx guys

Maybe the following questions might help you a bit:

Is crystalline sword your favorite sword skin?
If yes, what are you gonna buy with the money you get by selling? Another crystalline?

Imo if you really love crystalline, either
a) Customize it
b) Sell it and get the highest req ever possible (even if its req16) and customize it

If you customize, no one will hear you on vent over the clanking of brass in your pants.

Customize the weapon if you really like it and are 100% sure you will never sell it again.

yeah those things are pretty much crap to me unless they turn into a hot farming spot.20/20 +15%>50 +30 health pretty much is standard.Pick a skin and dive in.As for not gearing heroes ...I always gear my FAVE group,but you do pick up way to many heroes to gear em all.

One of the biggest problems for people is that your never 100% certain you'll keep an item.

Is that R10 the best I can afford?
Will a better skin come out or will I sudenly find an awsome build that requires a diff weapon?

The simplest rule of thumb maybe, Blue/Purple/Green Customize upon aquire.
Gold Require 11-13 customize, Require 7-8-9-10 you pick a price your willing to take for it and sell it untill you get that price(assuming your reasonable with current market value).

I am always 100% certain I'll keep a weapon I buy. If I see another weapon I want, I'll buy that one too. I'm not limited to having only 1 weapon. If I could earn the money to buy the first weapon, I can earn the money again.

Lucky you, but not everyone can afford to purchase 2, 5, 10+ 100K+XXecto weapons!

Add to that why buy 2 weapons with the same skin? If you purchase a R10 or get one as a drop and see a R9 or R8 that you can afford would you pass it up or buy it?

I customized quite a few weapons that I wish now I had not since I've aquired better skins and they are just sitting on a storage char collecting dust!

I understand your pain. I feel the same too sometimes that I should not have customized certain weapons. To cure the pain, I buy some more and customize

i customize for the simple reason that history has taught me when i bought my victos axe in proph for 30k it soon dropped to 20k and when the new games came out it plummeted even further whichjust goes to show whatever weapon you have and is good stats customize it because itll be worth nothing soon anyway.
