Wtf Merch a perf Inspiration magic rod? I'd pay 20plat for that!

Chalice, not a rod...
Now I'm confused.
16 wood planks. Thanks.
Have the whole lot for 20k if you want.

Even the 16 wood planks.

I posted here for help, from someone that knows. No need to reply if you're clueless. Merchanting a gold weapon is dumb, even I know I could get 1k for them. Which is more than merchant.

It's an offhand with a useless mod.

Also, if the Shadow Shield is +20HP unconditional, then it might go for ~5k.

It is unconditional.

Yes indeed, what was i thinking. Everyone who says merch on a gold item should be burned alive in public. IMO, by the time you've found someone that is willing to pay 1k, you could earn 5 times as much for the least by doing something useful.

Why am i even responding to this...

Yes, why are you even responding to this? So far you've proved to be worthless at giving any form of help.

Ok, i'll try and settle this in a polite manner.

I've given you the best advice with my knowledge available. I still stick to my conlclusion on my OP. You're free to ask for a second opinion, but sublines like "No need to reply if you're clueless." are just plain unmannered ways of degrading peoples effort to help you. Stop doing that tyvm. Im sorry if your weapons dont turn out as valuable as you expected.
