    So I got this today and im really pumped about it but.... idk how I should scroll it. I want to do 60%, but the cost is so high for 10 of them. 100% would be cheap and no risk. Just wondering other peoples serious ideas on this situation. In one hand I have the possibility that I could get 41 int but near 50/50 chance and each costs about 20m or so (dont know prices for sure ive never needed them) and I would just need 6+ to land to be better then 100%. That would cost somwhere around 200m+. In the other hand I could 100% it cheap and guarantee 31 int. Which is still very good for most zhelms, but a shame for what im pretty sure is perfect base int.... So pretty much i'm asking is the risk of +10 int really worth the 200m more then just 100% scrolling it?

    its rare to get a helm like that. 60 it. 100%s for a helm like that is a waste!

    You're a mage. You can make 200m.

    There's no need to scroll it NOW, you can do it over time as funds become available.

    This x100

    Money should never be an issue when scrolling something to it's optimal state.

    60

    You can easily make the money.

    I'd even consider whiting.

    I killed so many zak's never came across something like this, been re-looting helms for a long period of time. I'd prob chaos the helm, if it does go well finish it with 60%'s and ws.

    Update: 2/7 60%s 0/1 70% and it boomed when i used a 30%.... At its peak it was 19/20/25/20 so whatever only like 180m down the drain I guess.

    Time to keep looting. Perhaps it might be a good idea to bring some Helm 30/70 along with you during a run so you can get some scrolls on before you go all out on a helm.

    yep thats what ill be working on for a while. Also Im going to start working on a wand soon...

    This im more worried about because its rare to come across a wand such as this... and as you can see from my helm scrolling stats.... i have terrible luck. I want to ws 10% it but i cant afford that. I was thinking ws 30% until 3 land. If it booms by then im back to 150 clean wands.

    If you're seriously about your I/L, just white scroll it from the beginning. I've never seen 154 clean Elemental Wand 7s so this is a justifiable 7 slot White Scroll equip. That's my opinion and I'm sure others will have different opinion and call me a rich lunatic, but I've made my case clear.

    I really want to ws 10% it from the beginning, but I just dont have that type of income. People much more prefer bishops over Arch Mages for leech and I dont have the slightest clue on how people merch so well. I am serious about my I/L though I prefer it over any other class, unlike most people. So im probably going to have to make an hs mule to even make an attempt at this. Hopefully I can finish it before im done with Royals...

    P.S, to anyone that reads this, I am indeed taking ws donations!!!

    Head over to my Community Money Making Thread and you should get a few ideas. Mix up your methods around and you should have enough money to scroll anything you want in a reasonable amount of time.

    I have looked at that guide before but I never noticed the memory monk piece until now i'm definitely going to try that out. As for the Papulatus cracks i'm getting close to 4 per day (1 atm, 2 characters quests almost done, 1 in the making). So that should help a bit.

    Quality > Quantity. Earn up the money, purchase the scrolls needed and then scroll. No need to use an hour on it :)

    that's a nice wand, but as any mage class wouldn't it not be practical to perfect a wand since you're not going to need one that strong to 1hit skeles and petris and newties?

    I dont really care to 1 hit any of those really... I can almost 1 hit skele with a 161 tma wand right now. There is also Oblivion in ToT which I can barely 2 hit in the end maps, which give much more exp then skele. If I ever am to 1hit those I need to hit up to 141k with each blizz use. To be honest though I could care less if I 1 hit every mob in the game... I just want to boss with it. :D

    I'd personally 30 it on 1st 2 slots, then finish with 10%s and white scrolls (assuming the 30%s pass). Even if you don't have the money right now, you might make enough in the future.
