I have to say, the official trading house still has a lot of depth.
Wei Kai only took a quick glance at the inventory and found that there were dozens of Epic pieces of equipment, and even three Mythic ones.
This was not something a typical small shop could compare to.
As for Legendary equipment, there were thousands of pieces, making one dizzy just looking at them.
In the real world, equipment is not class-specific; as long as the level is sufficient, it can be worn.
Because of this, when choosing a piece of equipment, most people select based on three aspects: "attributes," "affixes," and "special effects."
The priority of the three conditions is: Special Effects > Affixes > Attributes.
Wei Kai’s first-tier branch is Swordsman, so he needs to choose from Strength and Agility attributes.
Affixes should primarily focus on attack speed, movement speed, critical strike, and critical damage.
Finally, regarding special effects, it would be best if they could directly boost a certain skill, like the Wild Boar Charge Set.
For example, the Epic equipment Wei Kai is currently looking at.
Phoenix Play (Epic): Gloves
Level: 20
Strength + 20
Agility + 20
Attack Speed + 10%
When equipped, the casting speed of "Chain Strike" increases by 100%, and each hit additionally inflicts 5% of Agility damage.
One of the luoshen set, powerful effects can be obtained when the set is complete.
This piece of equipment can be said to have no highlights in terms of attributes.
But its special effect made Wei Kai drool.
A 100% increase in Chain Strike’s casting speed means that the seven hits of Chain Strike, which originally took 3.5 seconds to complete, now only require half the time, or 1.75 seconds.
This not only means that damage can be dealt in a shorter amount of time, but also that enough time can be left to dodge skills or add other attacks.
In addition, it can also make each hit of Chain Strike carry an additional 5% of Agility damage, which is equivalent to seven more attack frequencies.
If combined with other special effect equipment, the effect will be even more terrifying.
Overall, the boost this equipment provides to "Chain Strike" is a qualitative change!
Most importantly, it’s also a set…
Wei Kai was very satisfied with this piece of equipment, but when his eyes fell on the price tag, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
10 million!
This price could buy a luxury mansion on the ground.
“Manager, this equipment…”
He looked up, ready to bargain with the manager next to him.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the manager heard this, he immediately preempted him: “If you like it, you can get a 5% discount! A flat price of 9.5 million, guaranteed to be the cheapest in the entire Yongning City.”
“…”
I still wanted a 30% discount.
Wei Kai was speechless for a moment and had no choice but to look at Tian Xiaoling, asking her for help.
Tian Xiaoling immediately spoke: “Manager, this is a set, isn’t it worth this price?”
“No, no, no, it’s precisely because it’s a set that it’s valuable!”
The manager explained with a smile: “The effect of a set is much more powerful than individual pieces; once collected, it can definitely rival Mythic grade.”
“But the trading house hasn’t collected the whole set either,” Tian Xiaoling said with a smile, “A set that can’t be completed is not as good as individual pieces.”
“This…”
The manager was speechless for a moment.
In fact, what Tian Xiaoling said was not wrong.
The higher the quality of the set, the harder it is to collect a full set.
And the highlights of most sets are generally on the set effect; not being able to complete a set means losing 70% of the effect.
For example, the Wild Boar Charge Set Wei Kai is wearing only had a simple effect of “+5 Strength when sprinting” before being fully assembled.
Only after being fully assembled did it gain the two powerful effects of “acquiring the Charge skill” and “doubling speed and doubled Strength when Charging.”
The Phoenix Play Gloves in front of him are Epic equipment, which also makes the difficulty of completing the set several times higher than that of Legendary grade.
Even a behemoth like the official trading house couldn’t complete it, having only a single lonely piece.
If it were an individual, it would probably be even more difficult, perhaps impossible to complete in a lifetime.
Of course, Wei Kai was interested in this equipment not because he wanted to complete its set effect, but merely because he valued its boost to "Chain Strike."
As for whether it could be completed, it didn’t really matter.
“Then… how about another 10% off, 15% off?”
The manager asked with some difficulty.
“50% off!”
Tian Xiaoling began to bargain without hesitation.
A single strike to the vital point!
“Hiss!”
The manager immediately gasped, staring at Tian Xiaoling and saying, “Xiao Ling, you’re trying to kill me!”
“Manager, you’re joking. This piece of equipment has been in inventory for over three years. If it keeps not selling, that’s what you call a huge loss,” Tian Xiaoling said bluntly.
“Sigh!”
At her words, the manager sighed helplessly.
“But this price is too low; it’s really impossible to explain to the higher-ups.”
“45% off!”
“The lowest I can go is 20% off.”
“How about we both take a step back, 40% off?” Wei Kai also chimed in.
“This is too difficult,” the manager said with a troubled expression, “How about this, since you want to replace your equipment, if you buy a whole set, I’ll give you 40% off.”
“Then I’ll take another look.”
Wei Kai smiled slightly, not rushing to agree, but continued to browse the tablet in his hand.
His smile left the manager a bit confused.
Do you want it or not?
However, he was, after all, the manager of a trading house and had seen many ups and downs, so he quickly regained his composure.
Wei Kai continued to check the equipment.
But he quickly became somewhat disappointed; none of the remaining equipment in the inventory fit him as well as the "Phoenix Play Gloves."
There was indeed equipment that boosted Warrior skills, but they boosted "Taunt" and "Battle Roar."
Taunt is the soul skill of full-tank Warriors, while Battle Roar is the core of Berserkers.
They had little to do with Wei Kai’s specialized branch, the "Swordsman."
Since special effects weren’t working out, he could only choose based on affixes.
Wei Kai re-browsed the inventory equipment and quickly selected a Legendary helmet and an Epic armor.
After selecting these two, he still needed shoes and pants.
This time, he would have to choose based on attributes.
If only attributes were required, it was actually quite easy to choose.
In just two minutes, Wei Kai had chosen the last two pieces.
Among the five pieces of equipment, he was naturally most satisfied with the "Phoenix Play Gloves," followed by the two top-tier special effect helmet and armor.
Finally, there were the filler shoes and pants; as long as the attributes were high enough, he didn’t care about other aspects.
After choosing, he returned the tablet to the manager and said with a smile, “Manager, can I get 40% off now?”
The manager chuckled: “No problem. I’ll give you 40% off on these gloves.”
“Manager, that’s not what you said just now!”
Tian Xiaoling, the master bargainer, stepped forward once again.
Subsequently, both sides engaged in another round of back-and-forth.
Ultimately, the discount was settled at a total of 20% off.
A total of 15.7 million!
