1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

@Arkardo: I can't comment on the Passion/Kingslayer options, but one thing to consider for good PDR with 1.07 gear is a crafted body armor. I've got a couple with good PDR and some other mods, and now after Larzuk they have 3 open sockets, so filling them with Sols gives a lot of PDR on just the torso. Of course, 1.07 Arkaine's is very hard to beat.
 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Arkado--Rift synergized FO, Demon Limb synergized Enchant, and Memory synergized ES should do just fine for a melee sorc. You'll have a high level Warmth to refill your ES, and hopefully a 1.07 eth Thresher for your merc's Insight.

That's quite an interesting suggestion. As of now, I haven't done any crafting yet and saved up every jewel.

So you're suggesting something like this skill point setup:
20 Ice Bolt
20 Warmth
20 Fire Mastery
20 Telekinenis
1 Cold Mastery + leftover skill points

Sounds good... but won't recasting Enchant every few minutes get annoying? Even if, it does sound like a great option! :thumbup:



 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

You don't need to prebuff Demon Limb too much since you can only help the Fire Mastery--the CtC off Rift will be doing a lot of damage with Cold Mastery

1.07 Harley + Sol
1.07 Gladiator's Bane+ Sol (does this have CBF?)
String or Verdungo's
Volcanic (or Glacial) amulet of Life Everlasting, Mara's, Saracen's Chance, Angelic Wings
Ravenfrost (for AR) or some rare rings for stats, Angelic if you just need AR
1.07/1.12 Laying of Hands
? boots

Demon Limb + Lidless Wall
Rift + 1.07 Gerke's + Sol

A L23 enchant lasts for 642 seconds, so it shouldn't be that bad. Ice Bolt and TK should help keep you safe(r).

Alright, that sounds awesome. I'd make it right away... but I don't want to forward the 1.07 stuff yet. I still have 1.07 and other older patches to play through. :scratchchin:

I think you made a wee mistake there with the Lidless Wall though; it doesn't boost the Enchant charges. :thumbup:

Any suggestions for the base weapon? Since it can only be made in polearms and scepters, I figured I'd use some kind of scepter with Holy Shield. That way I might be able to use it for a Riftadin later, should I ever want to make one.

These are the 1.07 stats for the GB btw:

The Gladiator's Bane
Wire Fleece
+150% Enhanced Defense
Magic Damage Reduced by 20
Damage Reduced by 25
Attacker Takes Damage of 20
Poison Length Reduced by 40%
Indestructible
+30% Faster Hit Recovery
+50 Defense
Cannot Be Frozen

It'll boost Fire Mastery, the Volcanic Amulet will boost the enchant damage w/Fire Mastery when you hit as well.


 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Guys, I'm posting here first because of the inordinate amount of pros here, but if anyone thinks I can get more or better info posting a new thread please say so....

As of a couple of hours ago I finally did the update to the new patch by simply connecting to cattle.net.

Each mule was started in a new 1.12 game so the items they hold would be "updated", then I created a new character(necro) and just as a test I attempted to load Arkaines Valor onto said character, but before I got to that point a window came up that said "The item data in this file may be corrupt, do you want to continue loading?"...I clicked NO.

Everything then looked normal, so I loaded the armor. When I tried to start the game I got "Unable to enter game, bad dead bodies".

I'm COMPLETELY befuddled here, I repeated this process again after deleting the necro and creating yet another char. and it yielded the same result.

Someone, ANYone, give me a clue as to what the hell I'm doing wrong pretty please(crosses fingers thinking this is simple and Im just ignorant)

Mucho thanks as always...
R.

EDIT:Hope this all made sense...late..tired...fading...ZZZZZZZ
 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Ill give that a try as soon as I get home Galtwish, thanx for the assist, I was starting to panic. That would have been a lot of wasted racking if I were to somehow screw it up....

Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Hello to those (few?) remaining players of this good old broken patch:)
Tried this version recently and now my second sorc has reched Hell WSK waypoint (first one got deeds from Hell Nilly, yes that was stupid from me to visit him), I doubt I`m making a guardian with a werewolf/frenzybarb anytime soon.
Haven`t done any crafting yet as i want to get a little higher lvl (78 currently), as well as any rack running (it scares me how boring it might be).
And just after about 50 (or even less - just made my first 2 4Ptopaz armours and 3Ptopaz helmets) Blood Raven runs this drops:

Tal Rasha's Lidless Eye
Swirling Crystal
One-Hand Damage: 18 to 42
Durability: 29 of 50
(Sorceress Only)
Required Dexterity: 20
Required Strength: 20
Required Level: 65
Orb Class - Slow Attack Speed
Item Version: Expansion
Item Level: 76
Fingerprint: 0x3b39a1be
+10 to Energy
+113 to Life
+77 to Mana
20% Faster Cast Rate
+1 to Cold Mastery (Sorceress Only)
+2 to Fire Mastery (Sorceress Only)
+1 to Lightning Mastery (Sorceress Only)

I post it as i haven`t seen any1 posting this item here yet. Guess I`ve been really lucky - iirc there was a topic where its drop chance was estimated at 1:6k or so. Back to the Blood Raven untill I`ll get bored and probably will level some more (i found that with the modified .dll leveling isn`t such a pain - leveled to 75 twice in Nightmare pretty fast, just like i usually would in 1.12 and even though it seems slower in Hell, 91 should be pretty reachable).
 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

I didn't find a clear answer, but can someone clarify, is 1.07 Highlord's also faster run walk like in 1.08? Just figuring out, what version I should run :)
 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

I'm pretty sure I have a 1.07 Highlord's but I am away from my 1.07 machines, so I can check on those when I get to them if no-one else has had a chance before then.
 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

I only know that most uniques/sets are the same in 1.07 as in 1.08, but can`t say which of them aren`t. I recall some kind of data file with uniques (their stats or places where they become available?) being mentioned in this same topic, if someone could still share it I would be very grateful - nermind2(at)yahoo(dot)com.
Edit: thanks to the kind person ;)

I believe that is incorrect. While I've never actually had a 1.08 Highlords, every guide/stat sheet etc. that I have seen has the 1.08 Highlords having scaling deadly strike.

-firelights


 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

@Neskja:
firelights is right. The ONLY version with %DS/Lvl and FRW is 1.08. 1.07 will not cut it. Unfortunately, I too had my try in 1.08 - I hunted for a Highlord's Wrath, Windforce, and Stormspire - gave up pretty fast :(. Just to let you know, MF doesn't work in 1.08.
 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Has anyone info on legendary mallet schaefers hammer from 1.07?
Can it drop from lower kurast hell map (from rack).
Would be nice stats like these from guide, so qlvl of legendary hammer and(or) unique item.

Example of stats from the guide:

Weaponry

Bone Knife: 58 [69] / 1
Elegant Blade: 61 [66] / 1
Devil Star: 64 [70] / 1
Decapitator: 67 [71] / 1
Caduceus: 69 / 4
Mythical Sword: 72 / 1
Thunder Maul: 75 [91] / 1
Colossus Blade: 76 [85] / 4

LOL @ OMG
I just took a look at the odds for stormspire in 1.08 and with 500% MF (hardly any better than 0%) the best odds are 1 in 7.2 Million, ranging up to 1 in 327 Million for Pindleskin and lister & co. I am not surprised that you gave up, I am surprised that you even started facing those odds.

The highest treasure class in 1.08 seems very messed up because the odds for a normal monster to drop a sacred armour or giant thresher of any quality are 1 in 180 000!!!. For caduceuses and vortex sheilds the odds are about 1 in 500 000!!!. The odds of getting griswold's honor from a unique blood lord are better than a vortex sheild of any quality from a normal blood lord.
