Should I kill my sword?

  And ego a red and black llb while they're still relatively common? My current ego is a japanese two hander, and I hardly use her because she requires nx pots to patch up. With a llb ego all I have to do is prof a storebought llb. Plus I'm thinking of getting into ranging in the future.
  
  Buuut... my sword is already level 22 social. If I kill her I'll have to build from scratch. I'm not sure if I'll regret it or not.
  
  Advice? Opinions? :<

  If you're gonna use range a lot, you're gonna need an ego to really match the damage of Melee/Magic. You could go for the ego, but Wing Bow is better by far :c

  True, but with wing bow you have to think about repairs, too.

  Well, time proffing up a bow could be time spent farming gold->buying NX->repair pots.

  I suppose with that logic I should keep my sword, then. :P

  I killed off my 2 handed sword for a Xbow Ego since I to was getting into range.
  
  Ego's are useless when they have no use, they're just storage wasters.
  
  If your seriously not using your ego at all and I mean it just collects dust in your inventory then I would kill it and ego something that you will use.

  Are crossbow egos better for humans than, say, llbs?

  I ego'd it cause I wanted to...and since it was pure white and all...they sacrifice range for more crit and can run with range and arrow revolver loaded. For Magnum and Crash shot you can run while it loads but once fully loaded you are immobile. Firing rate is slower? I think...

  Wah... I'm so conflicted...

  Firing rate isn't slower if the bow's speed is faster. It just stuns less. Also, the less the range, the slower the aiming speed will be.
  
  Give it some thought about your ego. The point of an ego in the first place is to use it (constantly?) for its better stats. Spending a fortune on growing it is all part of hungering for more power. I never cared about those two reasons, so I just didn't want a (serious) ego anymore.

  Hmm egos doesn't really become useful until about STR 25 imo. It takes several million to get there, so it's a bit of an investment. Think of which ego you could use all day long at STR level 25 or so and go for it. If you can not afford to use it for hours at a time then maybe an ego is not for you.

  Well, I trashed my jap sword and got a llb ego. Here's hoping she'll be used a lot more. Thanks all. ^^
