vleademir Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 Going to be mining and smithing 30k iron into knives. Should I pick them up or no? I am mostly training at dust devils where the accumulator wont work, or places like that. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anonymouse_ Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 They won't last too long if you don't pick them up. You'll use them up in about 10-15 hours...which is a complete waste of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goobore Posted October 19, 2007 Share Posted October 19, 2007 ... into knives. Should I pick them up or no?... If the portion of knives that you pick up is "p" then 1/(1-p) is the amount of throws that you can get out of them. So if you pick up 50% of them, p=0.50 and 1/(1-0.5) = 2 throws for each If you pick up 66.6% of them, p=0.666 and 1/(1-0.66) = 3 '' If you pick up 75% of them, p=0.75 and 1/(1-0.75) = 4 '' If you pick up 80% of them, p=0.80 and 1/(1-0.80) = 5 '' So, for example, if you picked up 75% of them then you can throw each one 4 times before it's gone. That means that you can get 4x the exp out of them. Now, level exp roughly doubles every 7 levels so 4x exp can earn you an extra 14 levels in your training with no extra cost. (Well, it does take a bit longer) Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
