Spam's been mostly gone since e-mail confirmation was added to accounts before they are able to do anything.

Can anyone explain to me when it's worth to auction out a particular item? Currently my strategy for next time consist of only selling items equals or above quality 'fine', and the selling price to Bazaar is above 800-1,000 Credits. I feel tho it's not enough, some junks might still fall through.
Also I've viewed skillchips wiki page on the subject but I don't get it tbh.
Edit: Or simply have the starting bid at 100 Credits and let it go from there. :P

(IMG:[ invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Some minimums are to break even with what you get back from the bazaar. The price in an auction is determined by how badly a group of people want it. Most shop prices are based off this or is prices at what they previously bought it for, unless a patch made it worthless in which case the price gets reduced slowly.

Nothing more I can look at to determine if the item is good or not?

No fast way, but some types of items will easily sell or auction due to the rarity. That is why things like phase carry a 5+ digit price tag.

I see. Oh well I'm not out to earn a bazillion Credits anyway, I'm happy as long as I get 3-500 more Credits then Bazaar would give me.

There's no easy way to tell if the item's good, but there are easy ways to tell if the item's bad. One-handed Usually only those with either exquisite, ethereal, slaughter (for club and axe) or nimble (dagger, rapier) worth more. Two-handed Still keep those ethereal. Then keep those with slaughter and high ADB and proc chance/duration/damage. Staff Keep those with high MDB (destruction) and high mana conservation bonus (focus). Then throw away those willow, redwood and oak. Clothes Keep those EDB phases and gossamers of elementalist/demon-fiend/heaven-sent with high prof. Light Kevlar of protection, and shade Heavy Plate of protection, shield armor, power armor.

Those are suffixes, but yeah pretty much. (Note: I keep around Exquisite with shitty suffixes just in case/because I think new people may buy them)

For the EXP boost from posting to the forums, posts to any forum (including spamhaus) count, right? Just checking to make sure.
Thanks.

Yes, replying to anywhere in this forum will trigger the bonus. Spamhaus is the fastest way to gather the bonus because you dont ever need to find discussion, just keep spamming (within the topic, of course). Basically the system will check your last posts made within 24 hours, if there are between one to ten posts made within that time period, you get 10% (or 100% for ten posts) bonus

Unless you're getting some legendary ethereal mace of ox which has comparable ADB to a better mace, usually you can throw away those with shitty suffixes.

I can't be 100% sure, but you may want to avoid free speech zone (FSZ), since it won't count towards the total post count.

How exactly does Domino Strike proc works?
I want to understand the mechanics behind it. As it stands, sometimes when I proc domino, it only hit 2 out of the 9 monsters. Yet, the wiki states that the proc will automatically procs Domino on the next monsters?
