@Fruit wow dude! amazing work!
The one last big question I have about 1.07 and I am not completely sure what the answers are, relate to item finding/magic finding and it's workings on 1.07.
Now the absolute two main reasons I have been trying to play 07 for so long, is to bring forward a 1.07 Valor and Shako. The nostalgia of using these items(back then we called them .08, whether they were from 07 or 08) on my Hydra/Thunderstorm Sorceress that was an amazing dueler before the hacks REALLY took over UsWest(and all other patches ). But I am talking she absolutely wrecked up until white rings and hex charms became available to a lot of people (white rings, had 90 to fire/cold/lit absorb, 100% IAS and probably forgetting some mods, so people would slap two on and made all elemental charms obsolete. Hex Small Charms gave 90 to Strength/90 Dex/90 Vita and there was also a version that gave 90 to Energy instead of Vita). These 2 particular items made it so Bowzons and WW Barbs were really the only characters left in BM or public duels. Before them, I could plant hydras around my and stand there waiting for a loaded Barb to come, thinking he will tank me easy and one shot me, and he would drop before he could even touch me, because I had the Hydras up so high and a high TS to boot. People weren't used to them, it was a rare build. I really should make one again for the fun of playing my favorite char ever again. There were many other dupes and bugs, but those 2 made the game a joke until the ruststorm came lol.
I have read guides and what not, but I want to be for sure and I am not 100% sure on treasure class things exactly.
Question #1) Can I Find Valor+Shako From any bosses, Mephisto/Diablo/Baal? To me it looks like that they are capped out at a certain TC and cannot drop a Unique Balorg Skin or Unique Shako. But I don't fully understand it.
Question #2) Can I find unique Balrog Skin/Shako by running monsters in act 3,4 or5? Like could I get lucky and find a Valor or Shako by killing monsters or boss packs in Chaos Sanctuary, Worldstone Keep Levels, Baal's packs, COWS or other of the higher level areas in the game?? Can I luck out there and get those two uniques and possibly other desirable items??
Question #3) I know that rack running is the best chance for finding Unique/Set Balrog Armors, Shakos, Grandfather Swords, Winged Helms, etc, but what is the next best ways if one doesn't want to run racks? Is that the only way? I guess this kind of ties into my first 2 questions. But is there any way of running bosses or running general areas, like the Secret Cow Level, to get my Valor and Shako and some of the other uniques like Wiz Spike, Valkry Winged Helm, Vamp Gaze, Skullder's.
I also want to get max damage charms and magic items with a really good premod and postmod and Larzuk it for awesome 4 socketed Shield/Armors 3,Socketed Helms or very high socketed weapons. But I think I understand I just need to luck out on finding the charms and the things to get socketed, I just need to get lucky and find it in the wild or shop them from people like Larzuk himself or Anya.
Thanks buddies!
