Re: Crafted Items vs. Unique Items
Helm: No. Rare circlets are usually top notch, not to mention it's nearly impossible to top some of the u/s (unique/set) like CoA/Griffon's Eye/G-Face to name a few.
Armor: No. Runewords can beat the best crafted armors, not to mention plenty of sexy u/s.
Shields: No. Look above.
Weapons: Definately can outclass a rare or unique or set. Unfortunately, the godliest crafted weapon usually won't beat something like eBOTD or Grief.
Everything else is a yes.

Re: Crafted Items vs. Unique Items
Rings/Ammys/Belt/Boots/Gloves are all good possibilities.
As for weapon, you'd really have to get ALL the perfect mods on a phase blade I believe. 2 open sockets, fool's, IAS, the mod under cruel (can't remember atm) and other mods as per your build like life/mana leach.
A crafted weapon would compare but probably fall short.
As per chest/helm/Shield runewords are too good in those areas.

Re: Crafted Items vs. Unique Items
^ I don't think you can craft swords.
The best possible crafted weapon should be something like this:
Blood Beserker Axe
+ 20 HP
+ 4% Life Leech
+ 360% Enhanced Damage
+ 0.5 Maximum Damage per Level
+ 16.5 to Attack Rating per Level
+ 40% Increased Attack Speed
+ 2 Open Sockets
I think Cruel + Fool's should outdamage a Cruel + Master's.

Re: Crafted Items vs. Unique Items
I don't think so... even if an ethereal could be crafted, I don't think it can outdo Grief even with the additonal 50%...

No, any recipe which modifies the item's ilvl casts away ethereality, except for socket recipe, of course. At least, that's how I think it works like.

Re: Crafted Items vs. Unique Items
Melee fighters don't care about SoJs. But a nice crafted ring with 11% LL, high resistances, life, strength, dex... Now that's a different story :grin: !

Re: Crafted Items vs. Unique Items
If you're a caster and need the 10 FCR/Resistances/the potential 200+ Mana (NRG + Mana), of course it can. :tongue:

Re: Crafted Items vs. Unique Items
Crafting weapon and armor in 1.09+ is a joke, but in 1.07 magic only affixes were possible, and crafts could get 3sox from larzuk. Any weapon could be crafted as well.
How about a Tmaul with 580%ED, 62max, lotsa AR, 40%IAS and 3 sockets? Seeing how a eBOTD tmaul can't reach last BPs for fury/ww, there would be no way of beating one, even forwarded to 1.11b Put in 3 40/15s and we get:
700%ED, 85%IAS, 62max, some AR, some leech/life or dr/mdr depending on the recipe.
For a dmg range of 264 - 1502 two-hand damage.
GL getting one :badteeth:

Damn it, my 1.07 toon isn't levelling well at all.
