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

I wonder, what were you after then? :P

Actually i was looking to improve my pitberserker either by finding the sc's or finding enough flawless gems to roll some good sc's. So far i haven't really. Only somewhat good was a 4% resist all sc (with 2 str IIRC). I was more after fine sc's.

Also forgot to mention the second ohm and the lo were exactly 8 runs apart. So in < 5 mins i'm two HR's richer. If only i could keep that pace up :whistling:
Btw did i mention i have the greatest LK map ever! Seriously, i don't think i could ask for a better map even if i could draw one myself.

Did you punch sockets in to it - because I'm guessing prefix 1002 means prismatic or chromatic and that it had high base resists around 40ish.

I only ask because I don't think I have ever socketed a magic item and I think I may have probably left some good things on the ground because for some reason I thought it had to be 'jewelers of ...' to be useful when I could have socketed it instead and had a different prefix.



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

ioupainmax, in 1.07, larzuk can punch the max number of sockets (max number the item can have in that version) in blue items. Free artisan's/jeweler's :D

I'm not sure if it's "random" or certain since I only punched white items so far.
 
Re: Andy Gives up the Goods - The D2 item finds thread (November 2011)

It's random. I have plenty of 1os Resist Prefix of Stability/Whale type Armors in some old stash somewhere :)
 
Re: Andy Gives up the Goods - The D2 item finds thread (November 2011)

[OT]
Haven't found a new beta BKWB hence the tags. This flawless gem recipe raised my interest. I'm running Andy in 1.10a and score flawless gems frequently. Just today I got bored of rerolling GCs and simply stopped collecting flawless gems. I think this could be a thing to keep my interest up and high.

I just tried cubing the first elite magical item I found, a Shadow Bow and it got 4 sockets, max is 5. I'm quite confused about the number/chances of sockets that is possible so I think I have to conduct some further tests.

I'm also trying to think of a good base to start plunging my gems into and after very quick brainstorming I settled on Caduceus. A few questions:
-Shopping one is possible in 1.10a, correct?
-Ideally I'm aiming for 5os Marshal's/Priest's/Cruel Caduceus of Quickness/whatever + staffmods. Can you think of anything that can possible be huge if it gets the right affixes and staffmods? I was also thinking of Archon Staff but I don't have any idea what could come up and who could use the thing that came up. Maybe Matri Spear/Pike? Bows feel like a lost battle because of Faith. Maybe claws, though 3 sockets isn't a huge improvement over 2 sockets that is possible in 1.13.

Well, I'm going to eat pizza now and read all this with care later.

5-socket caduceus
Prefix: Either Rose Branded or Priest's
Staff mods: +3 FoH (+X conviction) or +3 Blessed Hammer & +X Concentration
Suffix: For FoH it is already godly without a suffix, but for Blessed hammer of the magus is probably required for it to be used.


You could also go for the 3-socket Fool's Runic Talons of Quickness. This is much more likely than the above at only 1 in ~20 000 I believe including the socket roll. Runic talons also have the possibility of 3-socket +6 LS claws. Since it is a random 1-5 socket roll in 1.10a re-rolling claws gives you a 60% chance of the socket roll coming out okay, but doesn't let you gamble on the mystical 5-socket magic items.

Suicide branch from Nightmare Baal on my lvl 60 ww barb, quite surprising as he dropped three uniques at once
 
Re: Andy Gives up the Goods - The D2 item finds thread (November 2011)

okay, what the hell is the deal with IK stone crusher maul?
I have five (!) of these worthies sitting in my stash, not counting the one I'm using on my IK barb. And I have never self found the boots or helm, let alone the armor.
 
Re: Andy Gives up the Goods - The D2 item finds thread (November 2011)

Hit a stash in Durance 3 on the way to Mephy and out pops a Ber, CoH for the barb for sure, and the rusty Lo will go into a Phase blade for Grief, if I could ever find or make a 5 socket one.

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

Wow great Tomby :) too bad it isn't eth really :( Grats anyway :D

Maxicek, a tiara like that cost me a bunch of runes, so in a way you just found a bunch of runes :) And since you needed it, it's an almost IMPOSSIBRU drop :p D2 giving what we are looking for ^^ Grats!
(If it was a circlet or diadem, I would stalk you forever until you had swapped it for my tiara :p)
