Anyone able to tell me what Level 2 and 3 of this skill are (would be nice if we had that somewhere to reference for all skills). My question is if I want Mind runes, does it make sense to spend so many upgrading this skill when I doubt I will get that many back?
Has anyone run the numbers on this skill....seems useless to anything except a Paladin and maybe not even them. Even though this game has TONS of new items, it still rarely ever gives you any unless you buy them....and gold is more valuable this time around. So the fuel for this skill is somewhat low (on average). In terms of rune acquisition, seems like it would make more sense to buy or trade for them, maybe even if you're a Paladin. If I have a ton of green runes, why waste them on this skill (unless the returns are high when breaking an item) when I could get a 15:8 (I think) return rate on exactly the rune I want when trading.
Name me a class that would actually use Neatness? A warrior wants mind runes and magic runes. I think Level 1 of this skill costs 9 mind runes and 2 magic runes so now I'm 11 runes down. How many items would I have to break (on average) to get those 11 back considering that some of them will be might runes and crystals (which I don't want)? Take the total sale price of those items and I think it makes logical sense to take the money. Maybe if you Save/Reload so that you only get the runes you want, but still that's a lot of items and I don't seem to have gotten that many. It becomes even more absurd if you take the skill past level 1 which is probably what you have to do in order to get runes and not crystals.
Has anyone upgraded it and gotten back a better return than you would have just using the runes directly or what you would have gotten had you traded them?
