Bugged Death's Guard Sash

Are those other items regular items from the Iratha's set, or also 'hybrid', forwarded ones?

Minus the belt the other Iratha items used in the test were all found in 1.13, and weren't hybrid/bugged.
I can safely say that whatever the item is named, it will count towards the set no matter what combination you use.

It's a shame the stats/mods aren't affected because if they were also transfered it would make for some much more interesting items, especially with uniques. As it stands though I wouldn't mind a pair of Cathan's rings with the set bonus of Angelics. But even as possible as that is I doubt we'll get that result. :)

Actually, if anything came out as part of the Angelics set it must be pretty OP. And if every single set has been mixed up when bringing them forward, that Angelics Hybrid is out there waiting for us!
 
Can I ask is this being done out of interest, or are people actually playing with these items?
 
I think there are some sets that could become viable but are mostly never used because of crappy weapon damage. Also the smaller sets that take up less slots also become a bit more doable.

I could imagine Cleglaw's set being a competitive bow setup if you swap the weapon and shield somewhere else (like say Cthan's and Sigon's_. Highlights would include:
Slows Target 25%
Knockback
35% crushing blow
1.25 max dmg / level
20% Ias
6% mana leech
6% life leech
10 AR / level
15% @ Res
40% cold Res
20% FRW

not horrible for three item slots
 
Yeah, weapon damage is the main problem with most sets. Or in the case of Sigon, that they take up just about the entire character.
 
I hadn't thought of that one Brak, I need to reinstall to get time travelling again but I'll look forward to seeing what happens with the Cleglaw set. I wonder if it makes a different what patch you bring them forward to, I don't think so but I'll give it a shot.
 
I actually have all unique and set items forwarded this way, although I don't play anymore I can see if I can find screenshots or readouts.

I wrote about this in this forum 6-7 years ago when I discovered it myself. What you need to do is convert a character with the items directly from pre-LOD (1.07) to 1.09 (or 1.10, don't remember). If you do convert a pre-LOD character to 1.07 first, then 1.09 (or 1.10 and higher) it will become 'normal'.

For instance, find a Gull dagger in 1.00 - 1.06 and convert that character directly to 1.13. The Gull will get 100% MF, even though it actually only has 50% MF. However, if you first convert it to 1.07, then 1.13 it will retain it's original 50% MF.

Edit:
Found Steel Clash with +1 sorc which is great in 1.13 classic and the Jang Bong staff with 100% ED (24-56 dmg) and 2 paladin skills (0 strength requirement and character level 1 requirement, easy twink!!!! :O )

Agreed. But the same can be done with twinking gear with max dam jewels, jewels of envy, 6os hel'd big bad weapons, ... There's no way to get +1 sorc levels at lvl 1, nor res all, DR, ...
 
Hmm, good catch. Grand charms of strength? Chipped Amethysts in gear? I didn't count to see if you can actually get there. Even if you can only use it at level 3 or 4, I'd still take the +1 Sorc skills at that level though ...
 
Hehe, I guess but the character level requirement is returned to normal once converted to LOD. So, this is without a doubt the best twink weapon in classic.

I don't have D2 installed, but there are tons of more bugged items like this. Especially the ones with +1 character skills.
 
OMG I want that +1 sorc shield! :rolleyes: Lol

Perfect to pair with my Sacred Globe:
+3 to Charged Bolt (Sorceress Only)
+3 to Warmth (Sorceress Only)
+3 to Fire Bolt (Sorceress Only)

@Brak - I use +4 Str/Dex grand charms wherever needed.

50 Str/50 Dex at lvl 5 was rough!
