Yeah I know I am outdated, I do not even know these new MK2 stuff. What are they, and how do you do it?

It's another upgrade trail, you go from Lev 12 (Mk 1) back to Lev 1 Mk 2 But Lev 1 Mk 2 is NOT more powerful than Lev 12 Mk 1. At the end you get about a 20% boost, but it costs all that silver again Put simply: Mark One:  Mark Two:  |

So does it cost 500 gold to upgrade to MK-2? Yes the Initial cost to start the Mk2 Trial is 500 gold then it will cost Silver the same prices as it did for the Mk1 trial |

If you're going to Mk2 something, be ready to commit additional gold because remember, you actually LOSE HP or DMG when you pay that first 500 Au. I don't know the comparisons where a Mk2 item matches it's Mk1 and at what point it starts to surpass it.

Any single lvl 12 bot or weapon costs 500 gold to enter the mk2 phase. Each MK2 lvl is 20% stronger than the normal lvl. To break even, one has to get said bot or weapon to MK2 lvl 10, where it will still be a hair less effective than it was at Lvl 12. Upgrades cost the same time and silver as they did the 1st time.
Very expensive, but in the end, that single item will be 20% better than it was at Lvl 12. My silver reserves haven't been this low in a very long time. Working on my 4th mk2 weapon atm.
I'd advise anyone thinking about the MK2 enhancement to be very selective, since it doubles the cost. Also, anything starting mk2 should probably be taken out of use til it gets to MK2 lvl 10, else you're going to be underpowered compared to your lvl 12 stuff.

Ahh alright I see how MK-2 works, I only had a vague idea of how it works, thank you for clarifying guys.
hmm 500 gold huh...$26 bucks will get me 2,500 gold, but the weapon has to be worth it too.

The only thing on my radar to go the Mk2 route is a Golem. It's the cheapest and fastest bot to level up. And in my league of D2/D3, it would be a nasty surprise to drop my Ember/Taran/Magnum Mk2 Golem on an unsuspecting red about to turn my beacon. I likely won't level up the weapons past 8 or 9 though. Not just because I want to be fair, but I also don't want to do too much damage that I start climbing again.
