Looking for S6 Sanct on a 1,312 difficulty morning star.

[Stanley Burrell]

Hey, looking to hire a Cleric to S6 my currently S5'd morning star that has a difficulty of 1312. Don't have a -500 difficulty potion. Can pay quite well with either silver or cash -- Send me a PM with your price and availability.

Thanks.

That's a lot of suffuse (and a lot of time) without the super potion. I'd suggest getting a super pot from DR in Feb if you can't find one prior. Granted it's 50k scrip, but it's worth it in cases like this to shred off time and silver/money. a lot easier to get 962 bonus (100 to cover the roll plus another 50 for the S6 itself) required to do the S6 than 1462 which is 20ish to 25ish weeks of suffuse (depending on the cleric and their enhancement gear for bonus) just to have the bonus covered plus another 4 weeks for 200k devotion.

Just trying to help.

Yeah, I hear you! Just don't have the potion, but I'm willing to spend an extra 50k-BS-converted-into silvers just to get it done. I don't like how ceiling difficulty is increased each time I bring it up at the mobile WPS wagon + the Smithy.

Thank you though, I appreciate it.

Unsolicited advice? Sure!

My post cap cleric can start at about 885 sanctify bonus. Even then, you're looking at 23 weeks of suffusion. That's going to cost you more than the 50k BS for a pot, by a long shot at current pricing. "But I'm willing to spend an extra 50k-BS-converted-into silvers just to get it done." - that's not going to touch the cost of 23 weeks suffusion from a capped cleric currently. You're better off commissioning someone to be ready to cast at the open of Feb DR. The marginal WPS add in difficulty won't shift the cost much, if at all, and you have time to prep

Alright. Thanks -- I really don't know about the pricing of suffusion; like, at all.

The item adds the difficulty of the S6 and you need to be 100 over that to give maximum success chance. So 1312 + 50 (S6) + 100= 1462 resource bonus for that cast. . Suffusion is a maximum rate of 25 per week, hence the 23 weeks for a enhanced monster cleric already at 885 enhanced resource bonus. 885 + (23 weeks*25 per week=575) =1460. Many uber clerics are only doing S6 casts in order to chase the Holy Flame title thing right now, reducing an already small pool or candidates to even smaller. Assuming you can find one willing to commit to half a year for you, it would likely cost at least 7-8m per week, probably more. Looking at 200+ million silvers or more for that cast and 23 weeks of suffusion. Hence the advice to plan for Feb DR run instead. 50k bloodscrip for a potion + (S6 (4weeks) + 75ish suffused (3 weeks) ) , so something like 90 or 100 million silvers total and only requiring 2 months of a clerics time rather than 7 months.

Great advice in this thread. Much better to wait for DR or try to find someone selling a potion, even at a premium, because the suffusion-only route is massively more expensive.

[Stanley Burrell]

Well I've got someone taking care of it now, thanks guys :thumbup:

How are you getting 885? I'm at 560 and could take it higher with a fixskill, but even then I'm not touching 885. Ascenion could add an additional +65, but I would still be quite short of 885.

I was just quoting the previous poster, but I assume it's ascension and enhancives, including +50 spell rank enhancives like Hoy's socks.

Take a human a human with max magic skills and no racial bonuses
100 : Level
+ 25 : WIS Bonus
+ 25 : INF Bonus
+ 20 : trunc(MIU ranks/10)
+ 20 : trunc(AS ranks/10)
+ 151 : trunc(SMC ranks/2)
+ 404 : Cleric Spells
+ 20 : Shrine Bonus

Total of 765

Then +75 for ascension and +75 for enhancives for a total 915 if they're an Elf you can add on another 10 for a total of 925.

Okay, so a fixskill number. I was just concerned my normal number was too low and my training was wrong.

Yeah, was just making sure that my 560 bonus wasn't due to training being wrong.
