I've customized my faire share of Eternal and Storm bows, as well as my Greens but i'm sure it's cheap change compared to some. We see a lot of incredible items in the High End section of the forum, yet who has dared to customize a really rare item?

Screenshots welcome.

15^50 Furious Dwarven Axe of Enchanting all perfect mods, which my friend customized.

By mistake...he never customized a weapon before so we told him it gives the 20% extra damage, and you CAN trade it.

But he didn't really mind, he wasn't going to sell it.

Nothing ubar, just a Req.8 14>50 Fellblade.

I believe I've seen an image of a customized Req.8 15>50 Crystalline.

If you want to PvP and show off your super shiny items, you're going to have to customise them.

Not always true, if you switch to benefit from a 20% enchant mod for example. Or if you're hiding energy.

I have a customized HoD sword on my monk, which I had before it was removed, but I customize every weapon I use frequently...so I'm not at all bothered, as if it weren't customized, my greed would have kicked in and I would have sold it.

no one else can wield it, thus you can no longer sell it if you get tired of your character or that build.

Well, I can't really compare with some people, but I customized a chaos axe 14 above req 8 for my warrior. If I use a weapon frequently enough, I always customize it.

My HoD sword, customised with 9/10 Furious and 19% Enchant mods, customised for my W from back when Smite farming was fun and easy. Now I can't use same sword on my I-Monk or my IW Mes. I would not sell it, but my builds could have been more useful with it.

Most expensive I've customized is a collector's staff with two +5 defense mods.

As often as I use my Galigord's Staff for farming, however, I really should customize it ...

In all reasonableness, anything outside of a Warrior or Ranger weapon should not be customized. W's and R's rely on the damage from their weapons, whereas to caster-types the damage on their staff/wand isn't that crucial.

I customized all of my Ranger's gold bows, most of which are 14^50 and 15^50s.
And here would be the most expensive item I've ever customized, my Warrior's Long Sword. I use this for soloing various high level places, and the extra 20% damage is a huge help.


Wow, the first screenshot for proof on this thread! Ya'll are liars! (kidding)
