1.07 News, Info and Gossip

At least with a Jo you can make fury ^^ I'll get back with you guys when one drops....

...How is life on Mars with the new flying cars??
 
@pharphis Cheer up, the game has one for you too!

Code:
Players 8/Party 8
Cham Rune > 1 : 8617684    Hell Bovine - [H]    The Secret Cow Level - {mlvl 90}
450 cows per run
8,617,684/450 = 19150
3 Minutes per run
19,150*3 = 57,451
57,451/60/24 = ~40 days of 24/7 p8 cow farming. Go go go!
 
I have 440 million gold so maybe I won't care if repairing is expensive but ugh sounds like too much to hope for on a craft.
 
Having a second look at this because I still want to try one out, and found that I do in fact still have my Tiamat's...

Why mpk ring? Wouldn't leech or soj or even more mdr be better? ravenfrost?
Any opinions on a better shield than tiamat's? The dmg boost seems like it would be minimal though the res is nice...
Maybe I should craft some javs...'

edit: I'm totally out of rubies so no chance to craft javs. Will have to use my unique ones with low base dmg for now.

Leech ring could be enough, I haven't tried it. MPK has it full all the time.. I like the cold dmg Tiamat's gives the most; it has all the councils chilled with just one Fury. Replacing it with something else and putting Ravenfrost on could be an option.

I haven't felt anymore extra need for MDR after I maxed my LR, and one Dwardstar feels to be enough. Just don't go Jab them if you are amp'd and especially if there's any aura(s) involved. I do Jab them then, but there's NDEs involved. Maybe some life SCs instead of all FRW?

I'm emphasizing FRW the most, as I feel I'm running most of the time (and picking up stuff..) and the actual killing is rly fast. Trying to squeeze some CB more (gloves?) could work however.

Picking up some gold is more than enough for repairing.
 
I've been running Council with my whirlbarb... he is NOWHERE near as fast at killing them as @Grape's zon, but its after they're dead that he really shines...I would estimate I get roughly 2x more good lewt from horking them as from killing them in the first place!!

He's wearing Skulder's for the MF (and the 25MDR!!), and uses Ist'ed Gul/AliBaba on switch for horking...

I tested if WW ever hits with the offhand weapon by equipping a wand primary and a great big hurty Colossus Blade secondary, and whirling through packs of mobs... at first, it seemed that maybe it was hitting with the sword, then I facepalmed and took off his CB gear :oops: ...after that, it quickly became apparent to me that he was doing very little damage... so, pretty sure ONLY the primary weapon hits with WW in 1.07.

That made it a pretty easy decision to use a Crainte Vomir offhand...the FRW makes it not too painful to wear Goblin Toes even though they have no FRW (if ONLY 1.07 Gores had CB...), and the 10%DR combines nicely with the 15% from SoE to make him alot safer when Amp'd

Only really scary moment this weekend was when a boss Heirophant w/Might aura followed him into the Council, one of whom had Fanat aura, and at least one of them had Manaburn/Cursed...THAT was nasty!!!

Nice! IPDR and MDR are underrated. MDR is especially good in 1.07. Think it would go good on a merc? I found one from mephisto and its been collecting dust...
 
Wire Fleece is ilvl 70 (TC72) so it falls outside the possible drops in 1.07. But in 1.08 Duriel+ may drop it. Mephisto has the best chance as usual. He can also drop Valor, but its really really rare. I haven't got it just yet.

Edit: max TC per boss (same in 1.09, no bosses can drop TC90)
Andariel - TC69
Duriel - TC72
Mephisto - TC78
Diablo - TC84
Baal - TC87 (broken?)
 
@WoRG - B-10 .. BINGO! Run #799 (40 blues to go along with it.)

I have 2 of those (while racking something else, don't remember).

Pretty amazing shield! If you don't need fcr or I guess dmg from tiamat's, it's the best imo
 
Soo.. how many fal/ort runes am I going to have to waste to get increased stack size + replenish on matriarchal javelins? I'm not sure if they're even better than titan's (though amp dmg would make them better imo... I should swap out saracen's with frw ammy)
 
@pharphis
Just settle for a couple of pairs with Amp? Could be a little easier task...

I'm actually happily running with just one Amp pair, but I like to check vendor(s) for possible socketables.
 
@pharphis I don't think you really wanna try for BOTH increased stack and replenish on the same jav...probably REALLY hard to get:
1.08 Patch Notes:
- Increased chances of extra quantity affixes on throwing items.
- Increased chances of regenerate quantity affixes on throwing items.

I have crafted javs with one or the other, but never both...

I'm with Grape here, probably a LOT easier to just get a couple good ones with Amp.

:(

I'm using buriza on switch, though!

Oh well I guess.

edit: yay

1.07 Champion Sword: 1Hdam 7-51, 2Hdam 21-84 +200%ED, +30min +100max

1H: 7*3+30=51 to 51*3+100=253 <------everything works just fine!!

2H: 21*3+30=93 to 84*3+100=352 <----+30min/+100max NOT applied...

So, as I've been saying, +min/+max works on 1H uniques, but not on 2H uniques... 1.07 can be strange...
