Curio Question
Hello,

is there a way to get decent Curios? The max desired stats I have are Health +20 and Toughness +15. The Melk shop also just sells crap and no real luck with the normal store. Max played difficulty is Heresy because I am collecting weapons for difficulties above.

Thanks

I'd do Mystery Curios rolls in the Melk shop, and check the other shop every hour.

That's a good Idea. Thanks.

Tbh I've been using the same curios since like level 15-20. All I've done is upgrade them to the max and changed the blessings and whatnot. All I go for outside of stamina and wounds is damage reduction from whatever enemies (I'm not going to pretend like its helping, but it might be).

Mostly Melk and not his gamble, that is just money sink.
You can get lucky, but you have pretty much the same luck in normal shop as well.

Most of my 21 HP, 17 Thougness, 3 stamina curios are from Melk limited offer and about 2-3 from mission reward.

nope. Just pray to the Omnissiah that you will be blessed when checking melk's shop or the curio weapons shop every hour. the highest you can get is 21% Hp and 17% toughness with a base power of 80 not including traits. a max power curio you can craft is 200. But its very nitty gritty that doesn't really matter to get it that high that's as high as you can get it but what you're using is fine.
Bought some from Melk's Mystery Box. Out of 8, 4 were pretty good. I am also using the ones that I've got from lvl. 20 or so.

I only keep about 10k in melk coins for raw purchases, the rest go into curio gambling, especially now that I have almost every blessing I want in the game.

It's really the opposite of a good idea, my god. If you like deleting all your ordo ingots, maybe. Save those for when a weapon with a desirable rank IV blessing shows up instead. Mystery purchases in this game generally are mostly good for deleting your currency when you feel like it's burning a hole in your pocket, and getting nothing but vendor trash in return.

Rather than do that, check the requisition shop as often as you can manage and eventually a good curio will appear. The sad fact is that it's pure rng ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ nonsense, and 99% of the curios that show up both at melk's and at the regular shop are total garbage and a waste of everyone's time. Or in other words, player retention measures in 2023.

And you really want +16% toughness at a minimum, ideally +17%. Likewise health, +20% at a minimum, +21% if you can get it. Stamina goes up to +3 so probably dont settle for +2. Wounds only ever go up to +1 so you're fine settling for a lower power rating curio there.
