i hope you guys understand that just about all of the high level wizards don't even HAVE weapons. i would much rather have 2 shimmering orbs than a staff i barely hit with, but that's at high level, now i'm very much content with my newly bought Runed Totem staff.

oh and about the making money issue: sometimes your lucky. I was at the dervish camp in Northern Ro on Fennin Ro and for some reason for about 6 turns every derv that was on my turn had a BRONZE weapon! i got 3 bronze rapiers! (3pp per rapier) i made 30pp in two hours !
