Soj

[Silverchair_000]

Hey guys, I just download 1.10, havn't played since 1.9.

Are SOJS as godly as they used to be?

 

[Uber PS-]

They are the currency just under high runes in useast ladder

 

[theyuw]

Yup currency as always jus like they used to be. Only the value in 1.10 is much geater than in 1.09 when you could easily hack loads of sojs.

i play on west sc nl and they dont seem to b worth that much hi runes take the caek by alot

 

[Andrew]

they are worth a lot on ladder bc of dclone and their 1337ness

yeah an soj on ladder is worth loads more than non ladder.

Yes, since there are no more duped sojs in ladder, but duped sojs in nonladder (there was duping method that you could change item's code number... so that it wont be duped soj, but newly created soj... this method worked until 1.09b from my memory) SoJs are prob rarest ring to find, i have found only 1 and found all other unique rings, i found 7 nagerlings, 5 manald, 4 raven, 2 dwarf, 1 wisp projector, and 1 to everything else except bul cathos and soj.... SoJ is more expensive than bul cathos tho. However, i have not yet seen ppl with 10 sojs, so i wouldnt say sojs are the currency, and there isnt a real currency yet. People would trade with items like uniques, and rares, and runes. (This is in west)

So do some meph runs, get gaze or somehting, and sell it for big profits since there is no real currency yet

its not like an soj is like a dollar and you need to trade like 10 to get anything decent. on east, an soj can you plenty...
Someone makes a game called an soj here, game fills up within a minute usually.

next to zod, jah, ber, gul, and vex runes sojs are back to (or almost, this is debatable) currency. Though Im pretty sure the soj will never trueley return to its old glory.

Yes, that is debatable, since not many ppl have any sojs. Sojs shouldnt really be referred as currency unless ppl gets hell lot of amount like in 1.09.
Also, runes arent currencies yet since, not many ppl have all those zod, jah, ber, cham, gul, vex, ist runes, The best rune i had was vex and ber in that list, including 1.09 and 1.10. Getting those runes are really luck/mf, what ever you'd like to call it.
For now, 'currency' dont really exists, jus rare/unique/runes to trade off and using one's opinion/experience in trade. Therefore, you can buy off tal's armor for shaft if tal's owner is new.

For example, some of 'equal trades' (in my opinion/experience) is:

Perf Thunder stroke = perf vamp gaze and shaft
shako = ss
vex rune, and ist = tal's armor and ammy
zod = tal's set/ik set + trang set
Gaze = 2 skil ammy with all resist and +str bonus/dual leech
Andy's head = crap item... since its pretty common/Shako (my experience taught me that andy's head is very common)

Now in 1.10, trading really depends on player's experience, opinions and how they look at mods of the items. There is no more currencies like back in 1.09 (hex, sojs, etc..) anymore, sadly.
