how about malangdo? do people buy well enchanted but no upgrade TSOD? how about erde? chakram? daggers?
why do people go for +9 faw? theres no bonus except for some defense?
They bought it in the past, but as you've said with the recent crimson weapon addition most of the common weapon got outshined and less likely to sell that worth its enchanting cost.
Some of the malangdo enchantable weapons that are still relevant and sought by lots of people have price above 5 million, e.g Hurricane Fury, Tae Goo Lyeon
Erde are trash for any EA enchants below 10, they're more useful for RK's than genetic nowadays due to extra sp bonus they got the highest weapon damage for DB RK's on equal enchant level against TGL but they lose in terms of dps due to TGL 20% cast delay reduction and at minimum EA 10 they stood better against 4 slotted weapons like main gauche, mace, pike, etc.
As for genetics mainly stick to crimson mace or robot's arm nowadays for unbreakable 1-hand end game weapons.
For leveling RTE still favorable due to good atk boost from sword training and axe mastery
TSOD might be shine again when the slotted version introduced in the future, they got outshined by Lacryma stick and crimson rod combo heavily now due to less mdef piercings and the skull cap combo bound to achieve its max potential
Chakram only good for low level sinx, Crimson katar far more dominant nowadays because you're not bound using the sin cuffs combo. With cost to achieve chakram perfect enchant I can make lots of +10 crimson katar using mastersmith alone
as for daggers, CK spell enchant still sought for WoE chasers and sorcs and due to introduction of KOSR that let you spam DD for infinite crystallization.
PvM wise FQL plummets everything so far for both physical and magical daggers.
Read again here what's enabled by refining FAW to +9
One more things I forgot to mention, about the booming slotting pantie business due to introduction of etran's undershirt
Slotted holy robe also still used for ME AB's, maybe useful for sura too when tanking strong demon monsters scenario
