altonsy 14 Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Sometimes, I'll find a weapon or armor offer that has higher stats than my current gear but then, when I buy and go to equip, the stats change. Like, for example, I just found a weapon with max damage of 373 with a socket included. But, when I buy and go to equip, it goes down to 342, which is lower than my current weapon. What gives? It's very annoying. Link to comment
Popular Post Flix 5,116 Posted April 16, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted April 16, 2016 The damage displayed on items includes the modifiers you have on equipped items. Like if you had Tactics Lore +20 on your current weapon, the damage displayed on any weapons you look includes that. When you swapped out the old weapon the Tactics Lore boost (or whatever, Damage % , etc.) was lost. Same with armor. 3 Link to comment
altonsy 14 Posted April 17, 2016 Author Share Posted April 17, 2016 But it happens even if I keep the old weapon and equip it in one of the other weapon slots. Link to comment
Spock 271 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 (edited) Try unequipping everything, looking at the merchants offerings, and then reequip everything and look again to see if there is a difference. [Added] I meant to say "UNequip" everything! Edited April 25, 2016 by Spock Link to comment

altonsy 14 Posted May 1, 2016 Author Share Posted May 1, 2016 Thanks but, it includes the Underworld expansion so, technically, it's not original Sacred 1. I appreciate it, though. Link to comment
Spock 271 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Hmm, "Getting ripped off by Sacred merchants" ... Does that include real-life ones as well? Link to comment
Serboi 29 Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 (edited) But it happens even if I keep the old weapon and equip it in one of the other weapon slots. It doesn't matter if you equip the weapon in another slot, the bonuses from it will remain inactive. Certain items have a downside to them because you also do not meet the optimal level to use them, which usually is portrayed by their negative attributes to, for instance, your overall speed as well as attack speed. Furthermore, Trading and Charisma will help you to not only find better items at traders, but also have better overall prices. When you purchase at the merchants, starting around levels 40+, pay attention to both ATTACK and DEFENSE values since they actually operate on what the chances are that someone might hit you and what the chances are that someone might miss you and vice-versa in your case when you attack. ATTACK and DEFENSE are not DAMAGE and RESISTANCE. These are extremely important to find, best if they're part of an amulet or a ring or similar like that. You don't need resistances that much if the enemy can't even hit you. At a later stage, after Gold, enemies will attack faster and have a higher chance to actually successfully hit. Yes, merchants are out to get you. Edited December 3, 2016 by Serboi 1 Link to comment
