when did you switch to gorgets? 93 or 94?

Just a little FYI, some might find this useful. Also maybe correct your Poisoning section? This is more efficient. Sorry if some people dont rly understand what im trying to point out, I know the way I organised this is kinda difficult and probably easier for the person who wrote it to understand. But anyways heres poisoning in a nutshell.



poisoning from 50 (50-67.3 normal - 68-99.2 greater - 99.2-100 deadly)


--------------------
50 - 67.3 Normal Poison ($1.5k)


[Notes: 50-67.5 = 1 Keg, or about 200 ns, total price roughly $1.5k)
regs used: only 2-300
Kegs used (normal): 1
total price from 50 to 67.3: roughly $1.5k

---------------------
67.3 - 99.2 Greater Poison

[Notes: (about 450 shade per keg or $1.575k per) :
(67.3 through 76.6 = 1keg : 76.6 through 83.1 = 1 keg :
83.1 through 89.1 = 1keg : 89.1 through 95.1 = 1 keg :
95.1 through 99.2 = 1keg)
regs used from 50 to 99.2: 2.55k shade*
Kegs used (greater): 5
total price from 50 to 99.2: $9.375k

-----------------------
99.2 - 100.0 Deadly Poison

[Notes: (about 3.5k shade per keg? {could be a little off} or $12.250k per keg)

regs used from 50 to 100.0: roughly 3.2k shade
Kegs used (deadly): only about 10 or so potions from a keg I have filled
total price from 50 to 100.0: estimated 11.0k


post notes: total cost is considering shade costs 3.5per since some places sold for 4 and some sold for 3, i just split the difference
this doesnt factor in Gcure pots youll use (about 20 or so)
or any other factors such as pks etc.
also this was done as a first skill on a fresh toon.
