1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Yeah, I meant rares like this: (note that this is the 1.08 circlet...)
Code:
Brimstone Brow
Tiara
Defense: 43
Durability: 23 of 25
Required Level: 52
Item Version: Expansion
Item Level: 75
Fingerprint: 0x1b08a35d
+13 to Life
+20 to Maximum Stamina
Magic Damage Reduced by 3
[highlight]+2 to Amazon Skill Levels[/highlight]
+2 to Mana After Each Kill
I have lots of 1.07 blue circlets like this:
Code:
Prefix 1260 (Hierophant's) Coronet
Defense: 36
Durability: 30 of 30
Required Level: 27
Item Version: Expansion
Item Level: 77
Fingerprint: 0x5806aa45
[highlight]+2 to Druid Skill Levels[/highlight]
and I mean that literally...I have over a dozen blue +2 Drood circlets:scratchhead:
I have fewer for other classes, but still get them frequently...but 35 (and counting) rares with sufficient alvl have failed to get +2 skills...I'm coming to the conclusion that they CAN'T! :weep:



Regarding Tal's Orb and MF, its true you don't have to stack on obscene amounts of MF to get one...ANY Champion/Unique in Nightmare or Hell has ~5% chance to drop set quality even at 0MF, but with the proper amount of MF (633 in NM, 282 in Hell) ALL class-specific item drops from Champs/Uniques will be at least set quality...I know I'd rather not have to wait until the 20th Swirling Crystal dropped (on average) to get Tal's Orb...:wink:

Edit: I did some more calculations on this, and IF NM council is mlvl 61 (so sayeth ATMA), and IF the qlvl of Tal's Orb is the same as the base (Swirling Crystal, qlvl 43), then actually 612MF will suffice to force Tal's Orb if a swirling crystal drops (1:878 according to ATMA, but I'm not at all sure how accurate that is, TBH...). For Hell council, its mlvl 93, qlvl 43(?), so actually only 257MF, but the odds of getting a Swirling Crystal drop to 1:3974

Yeah, I don't have a single rare item with +2 class skill. I picked up lots of orbs in 1.07 but I haven't seen 2 sorc skills yet.

Code:
Ghoul Visor
Coronet
Defense: 31
Durability: 24 of 30
Required Level: 27
Item Version: Expansion
Item Level: 93
Fingerprint: 0x633144fc
+14 to Strength
Fire Resist +8%
Lightning Resist +46%
Cold Resist +8%
Poison Resist +8%
20% Faster Cast Rate
+2 to Cold Skills (Sorceress Only)
10% Chance to cast Level 3 Charged Bolt when struck
Would be cool if spawned with 2 sorc skills instead of 2 cold :/
 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Damn...

Frozzzen is right, I looked, and not a SINGLE one of my rares has +2 class skills (and I'm a packrat, so I've got LOTS...). Dunno why it never occured to me before...guess its because I play in several patches, and you see +2 rares all the time in later patches...and of course I see +2 blues all the time, and occasionally craft +2 weapons...

I'm pretty sure this means that all the +2 class skill prefixes are MAGIC (blue) only in 1.07...THAT'S a MAJOR change that didn't make the patch.txt file!!

Would others check their rare stashes, just to check? This is definitely something that needs to be put in the new guide...

Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Finally my Amazon has reached 99 :)

It is also my first ever lvl 99 char.

Now i just need to hoard some runes and start more crafting..

PS Also found a OHM rune in 1.07 frigid highlands :)
 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Cows are a reasonable route to 99 in 1.07 and the number of runs in 8 players games (via TCP/IP) is not too bad, nothing like in 1.10+. It's in the hundreds, not thousands, IIRC. There are a decent number of 1.07 99ers around- mostly cowazons and sorcs that I know of.
 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Yepp what purple said.

The biggest hurdle is boredom of having to start multiple instances of diablo imo..
 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Snooker, big congrats, on both the 99'er and the Ohm!!:thumbup: Thats the highest rune I've heard of dropping in 1.07 in years (I know someone got a Jo once, a long time ago...). Did it drop from cows?

@Klonki: Hell Baal is NOT run for XP in 1.07...at least not by anyone sane, as he can and will instagib any toon with less than about 2500 life AND at least 4frame hitrecovery (which means Sorcs, Necros, and non-wolf Druids need not apply, and Zons need 174FHR on charms/gear...pallys, barbs and 'sins 'only' need 86FHR, but don't forget that none of the runewords with huge FHR work yet)

Oh i see. Isn't the Life also increased on the monsters down there at the WSG + Throne Room?


 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Ty all

I have really had crazy luck with runes i 1.07 . I have found

Ist
Lo
Gul
Ohm
Vex
Ums

Lo and Vex and Gul was found when i was racking. The Ohm was found in frigid highlands and the ist i think aswell...
 
It's just because of baal's inferno like skill in 1.07, its just instant death if you don't have those stats.
Think about all the times Baal hits you with that inferno in 1.13 every time you fight him...those would all be deaths.

Congrats on the 99er, even in 1.07 its still very impressive. If my 7 mules would automatically follow me, I would do it too, I just hate loading them all up.
 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Yeah Kestegs that is really the most annoying part.

I also to prolong my pain partied up with all mules and brought them to cow level alot of the times. The reason is to get 8 player drops and the "downside" is that you share the XP. Although its not always a downside as i leveled a sorc and barb mule to lvl87 that way.
 
Can't you just bring them in unpartied? I can't always remember the way it all works. I thought you got 8 player drops as long as they were in the area.
 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

In any case, congratulations on the 99er! You should write up your experience as help and inspiration to others!

Beta Bramble is indeed a real temptation for high 1.07 runes. I still have a 1.07 Sur from cows that I've been intending to make beta Bramble with but I haven't done that yet.
 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

@Kaerion.

The Lo have been used already for Grief. The rest of the runes are unused. I have Ist + other runes in 1.09 aswell.

Call to Arms is the plan. I did have runes for the runeword before i found the Ohm :). So now a bramble is in the cards for the future:whistling:

Right now i am trying to find a war sceptre rack (3 holy shield is the goal) to use for the runeword.

@Kestegh

Nope unfortanely not.They have to be partied.. I have tested this previously. I think i recall posting my tests and results in this thread (w good while back)
 
Re: 1.07 News, Info and Gossip

Congrats!

We expect a Mat thread :D I'm curious to see her gear :thumbup:
