So I’m getting into the business of selling legendary weapons.

What is more cost efficient? Buying T6 for lowest prices possible (highest buyer), or buying t5 and promoting them?

Neither of these is particularly cost efficient. At the time of writing, it is less inefficient to promote T5s, but movements in the prices mean buying straight T6 could be better tomorrow.

If you have to ask this question, I think the market will eat you alive.

I stopped upgrading my t5 materials to t6 a while ago, more often than not I was ending up with an output of only four t6 which was costing me gold in the long haul.

Plus the skill points themselves are potential money makers through other recipes once you’ve saved enough, so after taking that into account the averages are definitely in favor of just selling t5 outright, or buying t6 at highest order.

It’s like anything involving chance though, there’s potential to come out ahead, but for the most part you’re better off taking the more stable approach.

most efficient is sell all your T5 and buy T6 with the gold.

As of typing this, only powerful blood is ‘break even’-ish in terms of upgrade the rest are all losses.

Most times, if your plan is to use the T6, it’s not cost effective. Fine mats more so than common.

Search the page for “5, 0c” to identify the T5 to T6 promotions and check if profit if used is positive. Note this varies as prices change.
