Are L-faps really cheaper ??

Hello all,

As I have changed location and mob within EU for the first time, I'm trying to figure out what setup is best and am going through a lot of a fapping for the time being ... So I thought I'll buy a few more L-faps and when I saw the auc I thought bloody hell !!

T10 = 250%
T20 = NONE
Vivo 125 - 160%

Those are just prices that fetched my eye, but can a vivo t10 really be cheaper then a good old fap-50 @ 250% ??

Same goes for T20 and Vivo 125 ... anyone got some clever spreadsheets in play to add percentages to see how cheap L-faps really are (if they still are that is

ILW

The answer is nope...if you want to find the economy of the fap, find its average heal by adding together the top and bottom heals you get, divide by 2, and then take that number and divide it by decay. This gives you its base efficiency, then simply divide the number by the markup. so 2.5 = 250% markup. At that high markup, its complete shit, especially with its skill gain you get...

I'm more worried, if I'm using a L fap, it will be too slow. I use the tt fap when not in battle and that 20/minute seems so slow vs 25.
I will consider an (L) fap that does the healing/minute as my Fap50 if it's more eco. Have to look into it. But since I'm not using my F50 much unless I get ganbanged, I'm in no rush to buy and try an L fap.

Check Wiki. Eco stats there are pretty reliable.

Defintely compare before you buy. Another good thing is to check the stats on the ones in the auction. You can see YOUR ability this way. If you get an SIB while using the (L) FAP it may be worth your while (it was for me when unlocking medicine)

Like all (L) items, they always break when you need them most... something to consider.

The Vivos are so expensive because they all use Blood Moss which is only available in PVP4 and has a markup of about 4000% right now.

It seems to me, however, that with this VU the drop rate of Blood moss has increased significantly. I think that L FAPs will be more affordable in a couple months.

I speculate that Blood Moss will come down to at least 1000% in 3 months time.

I used adj hedoc 20 for a while.. but i can't get to like L faps..
They're slower and i never do many maxed heals with them, instead of when i use F50 or F80 i do maxed heals most of the time, they're faster, but they cost a bit more in decay?
Ok i'll be willing to pay for that

Yeah, and I am currently getting SIB on the Hedok SK-50, also available in PVP4 so larger markup. I can effectively use the Adj Vivo 15 in combat since it heals 24 instead of 20 per minute. For the SIB benefit, look for me at sweatcamp or Nea's

errm SIB... you actually need those skills if you use L faps, is a vicious circle.. for fap 80/50, u don't need more than unlocking medecine, if even that.
