Lets put this straight.

SOS = +5
This is true when all the stats of both weapons are identical except for the (+5) of course.

SOS > +5
This is also true due to the fact that it has better potential.

Its like comparing a sports car and a normal car. You've boosted your normal car, Turbo charged it... It will have the performance of a sports car, but thats almost as far as u can go... While the sports car still have plenty of space to improve.

I think it's time for me to :banghead:

How could you still be confused after what we've just shown? :roll:

I do.. I have a wolf lvl 18 and use him as a detour. ANybody knows how this is done???

Spawn rate at bandits for ((bandits)) at the corner of the stronghold is high. so bandits spawn nearly as same as the archers. (( i dont farm at Archers, lol, Fully booked )) So i decided to farm with bandits ((Where i got 5 SoS in 1 Week

))

So i use bow first. Broken - change - my super glaive.

so i summon my wolf as detour. Since you can select bandits from far away and bandits is quite a chaser, i just "go my wolf attack" and then "ok wolf come back with 5 of those bandits chasing you

btw my wolf is pure str, so i dont mind about his hp.

So with the 5 bandits, i can just kill them in no time. and then...yeah..
"Go my wolf, bite them, and bring all those bandits who's chasing you

- alternative way of farming...oh yeah. Dont forget the magic key F12

Im so out of topic...

sumone wants to flame me, lol..u cant

Lol you know nothing. :wink:

Sorry for the off topic but yeah ever heard of swapping a Z06 LS motor into a Mazda RX7? Did you know there are Honda Civics smoking super cars all over the nation? You can turn a Honda CRX into a 13 second beast with as much as I bought my used Saturn SL2 for.

you guys should realize that this is an useless discussion in the first place
you are comparing a tweaked item with a standard non tweaked one

that is just ridiculous
if you cant pay a sos a +5 is a GOOD alternative, but far from being the same.
So cut these useless flames.

Its no longer about sos v. +5

Its about partyaztec understanding he is a retard.

ok so sos is better than +5, i dint know that before. But if we compared two SOS spears lvl 16, would they have the same base stats?

Base stast Yes, but try and find 2 sos with exact the same %'s.

%'s are what makes an item.

PsYch008 has been playing SRO longer than you have Partyataztec.

PsYch008 is smarter than you are Partyataztec.

PsYch008 speaks english. Unlike you. Partyataztec.

I like how things are starting to go out of hand here :love:

And I never said that the +5 is better or equal to SOS. I only said that it's a good alternative if you don't have the money for SOS (and i can't really imagine a first time noob will have 6mil for a SOS bow -.-').

And to make it more fair here is a comparison to a SOS with better %:

The SOS is better in every posible way (except the price) and NO you can't compare lvl 18 weapons to a lvl 16 + nobody I know farmed at lvl 18 :roll:

Everyone seems to think SOS = +5. Where do they get this idea? It's a little-known fact that SOS is NOT the same as +5. A base SOS, with no alchemy or anything is a bit more than +5. shhhhhh don't tell anyone.

Why is the name diffrent?? is that the effect of +pluses??

ill be the first to flame that remark and say that if you knew anything about the game you would know that the SOS doesnt have a name before it because there aren't 2 other variants of it in a specific degree because SOS applies only to the first level weapons of each degree. The name is used on the normal items to differentiate two items which are from the same degree and look the same, but are different levels.

And to be on topic, SOS is without any doubt better than +5 , as you can see in the pictures the sos had better stats that are 0% compared over the +5s stats which are like 20%. And honestly what is the point of +5ing a regular level 16 weapon, you end up selling it for less than what you bought all the elixirs for.

So wrong again.

Imo:

Sos shield > +11 shield.

Got it? Its all bout the base stats, such as the very important blocking ratio.

Honestly, your a flarking twat.
Like Fk JUST said SOS = SOS Don't flarking compare it to some cheap ass random crap +XX ok?

SOS = Higher br %, Higher Crit %, Higher flarking everything.

Whoever is like Omg new 8th degree ajajajajaj! 64 SOS+7 Sheild is SHIT compared to 72+7 ahhhhh is incapable of reading FACTS. Well I'd rather have a decent sheild with a possible br 21+ than some random cheap br16 lvl 72. M'kay?

Random Insult = Partyaztec or whatever your name is, please press H ingame and take a long, long look at it. Cause you make less sense than khang.

Rather have a br 18 72+7 than a br 19 SOS 64+7, extra defense counts for something and unless you're lucky it's cheaper than trying to get br20+ on the SOS.

o.o look near the + 5 spear, u see that union logo..thats mine someone stole it *cry*

http://www.silkroadforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=22294

*on topic now*

as for comparing a +5 to an SOS u cant. An sos far surpasses a + 5 in many ways. Many people think that the %'s on the 5 are way better then the SOS but look closley..if its at 0% and its already higher then the + 5's % then the % of the SOS can go so much higher, therefore the SOS PWNS a + 5 (cept in price) :O
