Re: Andy Gives up the Goods - The D2 item finds thread (November 2011)

Anyone else crafting these? How is your average of 2/20s?

I crafted a bunch of gloves some months ago and another recently. I averaged one 2/20s in 127 tries in the first and one in 138 tries in the second. They are really elusive.

And those almost almost godly ones...? D2 taunts me:

Hailstone Knuckle 
Chain Gloves 
Defense: 9 
Durability: 8 of 16 
Required Level: 73 
Required Strength: 25 
Fingerprint: 0x9abb0546 
Item Level: 97 
Version: Expansion 1.10+ 
5% Chance to cast level 4 Frost Nova when struck 
+2 to Passive and Magic Skills (Amazon Only) 
Knockback 
+11 to Strength 
+2 to Dexterity 
Lightning Resist +27% 
Attacker Takes Damage of 3

(they can be still great if using a MB build and IAS is taken cared of...)

After totaling more than 650 tries, I was able to get what I needed:

Dread Fist 
Chain Gloves 
Defense: 11 
Durability: 9 of 16 
Required Level: 57 
Required Strength: 25 
Fingerprint: 0xae635203 
Item Level: 97 
Version: Expansion 1.10+ 
5% Chance to cast level 4 Frost Nova when struck 
+2 to Passive and Magic Skills (Amazon Only) 
+20% Increased Attack Speed 
Knockback 
+19% Enhanced Defense 
+5 to Dexterity 
Attacker Takes Damage of 4

In the first bunch got these nice ones:

Wraith Clutches 
Chain Gloves 
Defense: 8 
Durability: 16 of 16 
Required Level: 57 
Required Strength: 25 
Fingerprint: 0x4588f784 
Item Level: 96 
Version: Expansion 1.10+ 
5% Chance to cast level 4 Frost Nova when struck 
+2 to Javelin and Spear Skills (Amazon Only) 
+20% Increased Attack Speed 
Knockback 
Cold Resist +6% 
Lightning Resist +26% 
Attacker Takes Damage of 4

I still have some packs in the to craft stash, dunno if I should spend them or not. Not only crafting is boring, buying the gloves also.

Hmm, you crafted them with a lower level character, better odds? Doh I should have consulted the afix calculator...

Wow ... does anyone know if the upgraded online store cd-keys will work with a disc install? This kind of thing makes me want to run old versions heh.

I just reinstalled with the digital online copies and my LoD was already in 1.12 when I first tried playing.

So no, you'd need the CD's to get 1.07

Re: Andy Gives up the Goods - The D2 item finds thread (November 2011)

It’s been a banner week for me in 1.07.

I racked both elite unique axes:

Messerschmidt's Reaver
Champion Axe
Two-Hand Damage: 78 to 246
Required Dexterity: 65
Required Strength: 143
Required Level: 70
Axe Class - Fast Attack Speed
Indestructible
Item Version: Expansion
Item Level: 87
Fingerprint: 0x6c544e16
+15 to Strength
+15 to Energy
+15 to Dexterity
+15 to Vitality
+200% Enhanced Damage
Adds 30-70 fire damage

and,

Hellslayer
Decapitator
Two-Hand Damage: 100 to 267
Required Strength: 175
Required Level: 67
Axe Class - Slow Attack Speed
Indestructible
Item Version: Expansion
Item Level: 87
Fingerprint: 0x7cbeb06c
+35 to Strength
+60 to Mana
+150% Enhanced Damage
Adds 40-60 fire damage
10% Chance to cast Level 3 Fire Ball on attack
+2% to Maximum Damage (2.5 per Character Level)
+2 to Vitality (2 per Character Level)

The Messerschmidt's Reaver doesn’t offer much but the Hellslayer seems to have pretty much everything I could want in a 1.07 unique (damage, unusual mods, and most important a reasonable required clvl).

After more than enough racking I then decided to drag my Frenzy Barb to what I’m currently considering a point of completion: Level 81, dual Grandfathers. For reference, I only play 1.07 solo (and therefore at players 1) and my Frenzy Barb defeated Hell Baal at Level 63 (using dual Bloodletters), so, reaching my endgame setup happened to happen very post game in this case.

To celebrate reaching my endgame weapons I decided I’d take my newly geared Frenzy Barb to do some Council crushing. The early results were very exciting:

Cloudcrack <--- My highest TC unique drop (from a monster).
Gothic Sword
One-Hand Damage: 35 to 100
Two-Hand Damage: 97 to 150
Durability: 29 of 40
Required Dexterity: 20

+30 Defense
+10% to Maximum Lightning Resist
Adds 30-60 lightning damage
+2 to Light Radius
Attacker Takes Lightning Damage of 15
5% Chance to cast Level 2 Fist of the Heavens on striking

Tal Rasha's Adjudication <--- My second in 1.07 (so it can go to 1.09 :alright: ).
Amulet
Required Level: 67
Item Version: Expansion
Item Level: 93
Fingerprint: 0x1f4b98c7
+50 to Life
+42 to Mana
Lightning Resist +33%

+2 to Sorceress Skill Levels

Prefix 994 Grand Charm of Quality <--- Exactly what my Barb needed to top off his resistances!
Keep in Inventory to Gain Bonus
Required Level: 22
Item Version: Expansion
Item Level: 90
Fingerprint: 0x566a0a2e

Yes, it’s been a good week :thumbup: .

Been leveling my avenger to 88 in the AT. Best finds: a Raven Frost and a green lacquered plate. Both dropped from non-unique monsters, go figure!

Re: Andy Gives up the Goods - The D2 item finds thread (November 2011)

Okay, so I'm minding my business charging through the jungels in hell. I see a boss pack. Decide to kill it. My merc comes up behind me and kills a flayer. Boom, Cham rune! Would have much preferred a lo or ber, but I'm not complaining, even if cham is basically a useless rune. :whistling:

Chammy

I hate you. Seriously. This is all.

I deserve this much, I guess.


Edit:
Mal & harlequin crest in the 3rd of about 10 runs.

Gul from hellforge.

Re: Andy Gives up the Goods - The D2 item finds thread (November 2011)

Well, isn't this something. For the first time ever i'm not running LK for the runes and see what drops in 4 days of running: ohm, sur, ohm and lo. Oh yeah, i'm almost forgetting the 3 mals i got there too. Didn't get what i was after, but with all this it's kinda hard to complain. So i won't .

 

[Vantek]

Re: Andy Gives up the Goods - The D2 item finds thread (November 2011)

I wonder, what were you after then?

 

[Verno]

Re: Andy Gives up the Goods - The D2 item finds thread (November 2011)

What amount of MF are you all using in LK?

 

[Kestegs]

What amount of MF are you all using in LK?

That shako is from 1.07 and is off of an armor rack. MF doesn't affect rack drops, or the drops out of the 6 special cheats in LK.

Re: Andy Gives up the Goods - The D2 item finds thread (November 2011)

So! Did a little over a thousand pit runs (1011; 97 on p8, rest on p1) with a hammerdin (93), a poisonmancer (91, no dweb though) and, lastly, a Fabian-style-inspired berserker (91). I gotta say, zerkers are teh ****! Cut my run times from around 1:40 to 1:10, and in addition to that there's the horking! Percentage-wise, I would estimate an increase in effectiveness of up to 80%. All three characters have 400-500 mf (of course they share some gear)

Anyway, I have been trying to fin a Griffons since I came back, and behold, at run 497 with the zerker, three before I would have quit for the night, at last:

Re: Andy Gives up the Goods - The D2 item finds thread (November 2011)

Rare summoner amulet (1.10a loot) and appropriate music mandatory to listen to while remembering the days that have passed us.

It goes to my summoner's stash along with other items he keeps there in case of Baal run death but I doubt it sees any other use. Enigma has changed many things.
