General Notes

The Arcanna's Set is somewhat designed for a Sorceress, but even with the full set it would only be useful for one early on in the game. It does have a nice blue color scheme though.

These are the stats for the set in Diablo II Expansion Pack: Lord of Destruction, where there are partial set bonuses and hidden item bonuses.

  • The odds of gambling a set item is 1 in 1000.
  • Items with Rarity are expressed as a chance out of 1000. Eg 78/1000 would mean that out of every 1000 set items of that base item that drop, 78 of them will be this particular one. This is important for rings and amulets and several other items.
  • Item Level: Used in many in-game calculations. Monsters must be of this level to drop the item. All items in Arcanna's Tricks have an Item Level of 20
  • Clvl req is the character level you need to be to be able to wear the item. All items in Arcanna's Tricks have a Clvl Req of 15.
  • Hidden Bonuses usually work in conjunction with other items. For example, if you are wearing a set helm that has a listed hidden bonus as "Wearing 2 Items: +15 Str", it means that if you wear the helm with any other item in the set, the helm will show an additional bonus of +15 Str in green text. These bonuses apply to the individual item only, but most sets will have several items with these properties, so you can quickly find that simply wearing 3 items from a 4 item set will give you several additional magical bonuses. The bonuses stack together, so if you have an item that has bonuses for wearing both 2 and 3 items, if you are wearing 3 items you will receive the bonus for wearing 2 items as well.

Weapon Notes

  • Damage Bonus: This determines how you multiply the item damage by your stats to reach the actual damage. Multiply by the listed value per 100 points in that stat (eg if you have 200 points, your weapon's physical damage is doubled).
  • Weapon Speed: A relative comparison to other weapons of the same type. 0 is the base -10, -20, etc is faster, 10, 20, etc is slower, always in increments of 10.
  • Range: Melee only. From 1 (least) to 5 (most) in D2X. Numbers are fixed across item classes. For example, a 3 javelin = a 3 sword = a 3 hammer, etc.

Armor Notes

  • Light Armor: No stamina or speed penalties.
  • Medium Armor: +5% stamina drain and speed penalty.
  • Heavy Armor: +10% stamina drain and speed penalty.

Set Bonuses

Not a bad set, with a pretty blue color scheme, and a few items of use on their own. Arcanna's total set bonus isn't bad, with the Fastest Cast as well as a decent +mana bonus, but you can easily exceed those bonuses with four good replacement items, so this one has no real long term use, especially since not using a shield is such a good way to get killed.
