So I just missed a 1.7m+ profit morphing potion ABing, and also, like 2 other potions with 400k+ profit in the past hour. Why exactly is this happening? Is there settings I could tweak a bit to decrease my chances of missing items? It's a little depressing to watch hahah

    You just missed it :p~
    If you want to raise your chances of buying items you could lower your buy times I suppose

    Sorry Waser

    and my times have been 1300ms to 3000ms. I've been seeing them in the thousands more though lately.

    Well, ABrosia isn't the "buy everything that restocks that gives profit no matter what" AB. You just have to be lucky with your refreshes and buy times. Someone else might have gotten it legit or with another autobuyer on lower settings.

    Well you are in Magic so there are a lot of people looking in there for potions to make millions. Like said above, you need some luck with it, dont expect to buy every potion that pops up in there, expect to see a lot of red like this:


    2011-12-18 14:08:33 - Missed Desert Scorchio Morphing Potion: Sold out. (Est. Profit: 1744411 NP) <--- See you aren't the only one in there, i tried too
    2011-12-18 14:08:39 - Missed Snow Wocky Morphing Potion: Sold out. (Est. Profit: 351112 NP)
    2011-12-18 14:08:42 - Missed Red Blumaroo Morphing Potion: Sold out. (Est. Profit: 257239 NP)

    which isn't bad considering ABing in magic is extremely dangerous and get you frozen quick.

    AB"s competitive, expect to miss a lot

    if you grab a lot, you'll get frozen. So it's up to you.

    I miss 90% of the time in magic too. And when I buy something, they can be sold in the shop for 99k or less. :/

    But I'm staying on the safe side.

    When you say you've been seeing your buy times in the thousands more lately...what sort of buy times do you mean and what do you mean by lately? The past two days, my buy times went up to like 5000ms and I've not figured out what the cause was. I've only been ABing for like a week or so thus far so it's hard to determine a pattern at this point. My buy times are normally like 2800ms or so.


    I've not AB'd in magic much, as I just don't see myself ever winning anything against all the people in there...and I'd rather not get frozen. However, the thought of winning something worth millions is very tempting.

    The only shop I sit in for ABing is The Neopian Post Office.

    I miss quite a few... but every once in awhile I get a good one.

    So far today I have been shop banned but usually I am making 250k-600k daily from stamps worth 80k-99k. The big ones are like icing on the cake. :)
