Hey all,

I recently got the following drop in Nahpui Quarter...

Gold Celestial Longbow of Enchanting
Piercing dmg. 15-28 (req. 9 Marksmanship)
Damage +15% (while Health is above 50%)
Enchantments last 19% longer

I would like that PC'ed, as well as what the bow would cost if perfectly modded (20/20 sundering, +30 fortitude). I need to see if modding the bow would increase its sell price more than the cost of the mods in order to decide if I want to mod it or not.

Thank you in advance!

An ongoing debate.
While there are those who will pay for the items' base value and the value of the attached mods, most will only ever want to pay the base value as they'll be modding the item themselves to suit their own purpose.

Also, modding an item will never increase it's worth over its' base value and the value of its' components.

Ergo: Modding it will increase it's attractiveness, but most likely you'll loose some of the money you spent on the the components. It's only really ever worth adding mods to items that more than double the value of the mods your thinking of attaching, and only really worth it then if the item was a drop (pure profit) or you're really desperate for a sale.

As for the pc, 75kish for this. In future, check the sticky first for rare skinned and desired weapons '_^

..agreed on that, wilderness, well said...theres only one exception which rarely happens which is if you manage to find a buyer (with cash, lots of them)who wants the exact perfect mods on the exact bow that he wants..
50-80k for this bow

Thanks for the suggestions.

I looked at the baseline pricing thread, and just wondered if the enchanting mod made any difference.

And since it seems mods make no difference on the selling price, I guess I'll keep it as is. However, any other help would be appreciated! ^^

Thanks again.

Most rangers don't use enchantments.....so I don't believe the enchanting mod will add much value. (I've been trying to sell a 20% enchanting grip for a few days and have had no luck.)
