SSW Strategy

Submitted by Dennis_Anderson on Tue, 21/04/2009 - 1:25pm
I was just wondering what everyone's SSW strategy was. Do you have a list and just run down it until it bans you, wait til the hour is over and repeat? Or do you try and pace it to see if you can make the SSW last longer? I've been trying to keep track of how many searches I can get per hour before banning and testing different strategies to see what the most effect way to use the SSW is. Any input? :D

[quote=candyblossoms]I don't have SSW, but when I use my regular wiz I start at :45 or so and still get banned before the end of the hour lol. xD[/quote] Whenever I get SSW banned I run over to the SW and always get banned there too. Once I was banned from both in the first 5 mins of the hour... I was very disappointed...

I'm banned from the SSW too often to really care, but since I'm often online I go do something else until the next hour.

Okay, well of course, as everything else is with me, I have a very particular method on this too ROFL First of all, my items that are under 10k I typically stock 5 or more of. At the start of the hour I start searching these items, so I search, buy 5 items, then go to my shop, throw them in, and put prices on them. Then I go to the next item. My items that are over 10k I usually only buy one of, because of that, I end up searching faster and wearing out the wizard quicker. Because of that, I don't usually search for those items until 45-50 after the hour. Personally, I think my technique works well, I don't typically get banned until well into the hour and often find myself searching really fast at the end, just to get wiz banned before the next hour starts.

I break it up and rarely get banned. What I do is go back and forth between restocking set priced items from my SDB (no search needed) and restocking the stuff I need to search. By going back and forth in little bursts, I stretch it out and rarely get banned. The only thing I haven't been able to figure out, is sometimes it will ban me almost immediately after a previous ban has lifted. Like if it shuts me out, I wait until the hour passes and I can use it again, then I search for like 2 or 3 items and it locks me out again right away. This doesn't happen very often, but it does happen, and it seems really random. Anyone have ideas about this? ~ Love books?

I always wait until the second half of the hour to use the ssw, and that will usually get me to at least 0:55 of the hour, I get mad if the hour passes and I didn't wear out my ssw :P

Same. I usually start near the end then fly through my list of codestones, faeries, scratchcards and neocola tokens wait an hour and repeat. ________________________________ Are you feeling lucky? Click Here!
