how good are armor/wpn that is +1

[madboy]

why are they so expensive? armor that are +1 costs so much more than the next few armors that gives up to 5-8 def more, why are they so expensive and only give +1 more def?

[bside]

it's simple. people want the best one for their current lvl, not ones they can't wear until they lvl up 3 or 4, maybe more. 11 is better than 10, right? also, those +1 items (called HQ=high quality) can only be obtained thru the crafting, and the chance of making hq items rather than normal ones is really rare. (depends on skills, and other factors, though.) so they cost more.

of course, as they lvl up to the point where better gears r available to wear, they switch to those better ones.
