My worst 2 mistakes were selling a pair of Divine Valkyrie Wings to someone for something crazy like 8kce...don't even ask -.-
And I also sold one of my FOV swords to a vendor which had the UV: CTR Medium and Slime Low (it wasn't a bad roll for my first double UV roll though XD)
Tell me ur worst mistakes and annoying moments in SK!

That's a mistake? How much do they usually go for?

Couple more things

Buying 2 Tricornes for 4k CE each when they just came out (current price 100k crs)
Buying mideival helm for 2k CE. (also at about 100k)

lolwut. Hacker.

My worst mistakes? Hmmm...

Replying to this thread...reading this thread...

Kidding.

My worst mistake was crafting a DVS as my first 5* weapon. Which, I figured out, is a useless weapon when compared to other swords like the SS, Brandish, and Flourish lines. As F2P, I was stuck with this highly-aggressive mostly-useless piece of junk for a very long time.

Worst. Mistake. Ever.
Now I'm kinda stuck (addicted) in a game that has too many ragers, beggars, over-inflated ego kids, P2Ws (with huge egos too), immature attitude, narrow minds... List goes on. I wish I had chosen better a game.

EDIT: NUUUU
I LOVE YOU SK

@Anami:

lols. No reason to complain if you won't stop playing. Every game has mature & immature people.

'Sides, you can find plenty of mature players. The only way you find a bunch of immature players is when you're sitting in Haven or doing PUGs.

Thing is. I'm addicted to the game, while I'm not comfortable with people I end up playing with. I did not point this out, but I mostly play LD (which you forgot to mention in the immature players list). Asking for mature players there is nonsense... And I find PUGs not so troubling in fact... I actually enjoy doing RJP runs to help 2/3*s, IMF for people needing Pulsars (eew) and FSC to aid 4*s to get better gear... Haven't done that in a while though... And many people I regarded as mature ended up losing it in certain circumstances.
And also, EASY FOR YOU TO SAY WHEN U NO UNDERSTAND DIS LUV-HATE RELATION I HAZ TO DIS B*TSH CALLED SK
Wait no I didn't mean it
DON'T YOU START LAGGIN ON MEH U CRAZY U

Aaaaaaand forgot to add other stupid thing I did: wasting money on a clone Skolver set. Proto+Winmillion is so much more fun.

@Anami:

I find public chat in LD utterly pointless. Not totally sure why it's even there. I guess maybe so people don't get PM-spammed? But then you could just ignore them.

In fact, you can just ignore them anyway.

Well, it's more likely to find immature people out of masses you don't know...like PUGs or LD.

Point is, you simply can't play any MMO without both mature and immature people. So don't even try...trust me, I already have.

Edit: Okay, maybe you can find an MMO without mature people. But not immature people.

The papaya blushes

I've had lots of epic fails, and they are happening to me EVERYDAY, here are some:
1. Pressing the up button before the battle with Warmaster Seerus (happened yesterday 0_0)
2. Spending 1k CE on revives on a Jelly King (Royal Jelly) run and wondering why the papaya I did that
3. Bringing the wrong equipment into a Vana run, leaving to get the right equipment, but accidentally returning with the exact same ones 0_0
4. Pressing "Command-Q" (which quits the current application, I'm on a mac by the way) during an important run
5 (And WORST of all): Binding my Stunning Crest to my Proto Armor. IT WAS MY STUNNING CREST, IT HARD A BIG YELLOW SHINING STAR ON IT, IT REPRESENTED MY CHINESE NAME (夏宇星)"星" means star in chinese btw) I WILL NEVER FORGIVE MYSELF FOR THAT MISTAKE!!!

The most of my mistakes was crafting a bunch of 4* weapons (not in a short period of time, though...), and then they became useless to me.

Basically, "throwing" my money at a guy so he could buy something for me in basil's shop, because the game didn't let me. He logged off. The amount was 12k.

Crafting a Chroma Mask, and buying a Chroma Suit. Also, crafting a Boosted Plate Shield.

Mostly lack of CE/Crowns for missing great things in the AH

Attaching a pumpkin bomb bandolier last Dark Harvest on my groundbreaker armor. Feeling better about it now that they're in the AH after this DH. Blew a lot of CE on revives & reviving others during newb days - I am better prepared for these things now, though I'm still not a great clockworks fighter.

I still haven't put on my Black Rose Regalia for the fear of "what if I wanna sell it someday for mad CE?!" but I got some good advice on that from another forum poster. to paraphrase 'just wear it already!'

and... TED: Don't Regret Regret reminding me that its just a game. (http://www.ted.com/talks/kathryn_schulz_don_t_regret_regret.html)

@ToastySouls

PUG means pick up group, in reference to not pre-organising your party members before you jump into the dungeon: just getting together with any random player at the time (which is what a lot of us not in guilds do)

Speaking of that... I seem to be some sort of Material Magnet. Irregardless of what gear I wear or my game progress, 60% of materials go to me (in a four person party) when I'm using my primary account. Maybe it's some sort of secret gift to paying players? :/ I feel so guilty when I eat all the mats in a level (and I'm wearing rubbish armour in a party with 3 other 5 star players)

Thanks for the reply guys! I really enjoyed reading them an i know some of them are exceptionally painful! >w< keep em coming ;D
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quite a while ago I attempted soloing one of the supposedly easy daily prestige missions as I had done previously, but this time it was a devilish drudgery...you know what's coming, it doesn't sound too bad, but I spent about 150 ce on revives, didn't actually complete the mission, annoyed ALL my Unity guild mates until their brains echoed my name, and that left me without enough ce to craft my level 9 and 3 quarter Storm Driver that I had meant to have also been heating in that run...0.0

@severage: hahaha my first 5* weapon was also the DVS, I thought it was so cool, fancy and fast, until the DA took over...

Getting an Emberbreak Shield from a treasure box after the (solo) vana fight -_-

And when I tried to do the 1-29 depth no death run today for the achievements, I lagged in the last arena and got mauled by a horde of mechas! It was depth 23, so close and yet so far!!!!! (ノ ಠ益ಠ)ノ彡 ┻━┻

Spending over 3,000 CE total

Spending over 3,000 CE total on energy revives before I understood the value of CE and the fact that it's ok to just accept a loss and try again another time.

Crafting a Cold Iron Carver (at least I was smart enough to stop there).

Besides every day?

One time I burned one of my triple UV tickets from the shard bomb compensation on my Voltaic. All family bonuses. None more than +2 or particularly useful since I almost always use Mad Bomber for significant charge and damage bonuses. Then again, I have developed the habit of using the initial detonation damage for Vaporizers for element damage instead of bothering to craft whatever shard bomb deals element. I could use HDecon but Blast lines are how a bomber cheaps out.

There have probably been worse things I have been stupid/inattentive enough to experience but that stands out the most at the moment.

My most recent brain fart

My most recent brain fart (although it wasn't too serious) was when I installed out guild alchemy room in the most inconvenient spot, simply because I wasn't thinking. Had to grind up another 90k to move it. Granted my guild got a good laugh out of it, haha.

If I remember any GOOD ones I'll be sure to post them. I've had plenty of moments where I went moron-mode that could raise a good laugh.
