Hi
New player, ~2 months, first post.
So I got Manos Cook Clothes, TRI
Was trying to get it to TET
7 billion later I'm at PRI. I could of bought 2 TETs.
Does it get any better? Why are these items priced so low then? Sure I can make money clicking TRI weapons/gear to TET all day, but Manos gear is just...impossible. Gamblers and lottery ticket?
Manos gear is extremely risky, unlike regular gear where you can math out whether or not you can profit from making one, manos gear usually comes out to a loss, it's usually better to just buy one from the market.
Well I go over this in my post about enhancing. Its not your fault. Its PA intentionally making it like this so unless you buy pearls you're going to have a miserable time trying to enhance your gear.
I wasted a billion trying to get my Red Nose armor to TET and I ended up with a Duo

Well, for whatever reason, PA has chosen to control the prices instead of letting them fully sort themselves out based on the actual demand and at what price players actually value the items. One of the results of that is that some of the higher tier items are low enough in price that if you can buy it, it's practically a guarantee that you saved silver - which of course, makes producing those items to sell make no sense at all. Of course, why PA leaves some of those prices as low as they do is anyone's guess, but since they're not pricing it based on the actual demand, it's going to be funky.
As for Manos clothes specifically, they're some of the worst gear in the game to enhance, because it's purely random. You can't use failstacks to improve your chances, and you can't use crons to prevent the gear from dropping a level - and as with all enhancing in this game, the odds are garbage. So, it's very difficult to get Manos gear to a high level, and honestly, I have no clue why you can even buy something like TET Manos Cook's Clothes, because it makes no sense to attempt enhancing Manos Clothes to TET for profit.
Enhancing in general in the game is pretty garbage, but if you understand how the system works well enough, you can enhance fairly reliably. It's just that as they've added higher tier stuff, they've been making it even worse in order to make it hard to get. Fallen God Armor is another example of that. It requires very large failstacks and drops to base on failure rather than PRI. So, PA has been making a bad system even worse with the higher end gear. And Manos is currently the best gear for lifeskilling, so of course, the process of enhancing it is terrible. PA relies on using randomness with terrible odds to prevent people from getting good gear and encouraging them to pay real money to get the materials needed to enhance. And then they wonder why the average gear score is so low.
Why are these items priced so low then?
Because ppl don't think before they click. Do the math and you'll know when it's worth to buy or click.
This the thing, never, ever try and enhance the gear you are using to the next tier.
Always have a back up you can throw resources at for the next enhancement tier, since you will lose a lot of active or passive income if it constantly fails. Hit softcap on your adventuring or lifeskill gear and get another set and enhance. You never see big name streamers blowing up their gear they are using to make their money with, because it's not smart.
These guys ever put a Dwarf class in the game I'll be making some BDO "Youtube" videos with tips and tricks outside of the typical streamed BDO content you watching ( Your eyes will be opened).

People just prefer to blame the game instead of themselves. Play smart, play well.
my experience with lifeskill gear so far is that enhancing usually costs the same or more than buying it off the market.
