[Summoned]

I just dropped by Andy after the monotony of Pindling all day long with little success... well, okay, 3 TC87s isn't "little success." But this is the first SoJ that Andy has dropped for me.

While questing in Act 5 Hell with my druid, I found this:

I gave it to my zealot's Defiance merc and he's loving it! His defense goes up to 7900 or so when his aura is active.

Remember kids, ID all rares! You never know when one of these little gems will drop.

The Twitchthroe will come in handy for a bowazon I'm planning to start on, as will the rare orb for my upcoming MF Blizzard sorc. My fishymancers merc now uses the Meatscraper, and that Fireboltring will be cool if I ever build another Firetemplar, which I probably won't .

Btw, my fishy has around 300 mf, is that enough? I use the gull, shako and skulders as my main mf items, what else can i add?
Thanks

Edit: Should i use that shadowkiller for making an iron golem, seeing as i don't plan on questing to Act4 anytime soon and that i don't really play assassins...

Add Change Guards (25-40 MF), Goldwrap (30 MF), War Travelers (30-50 MF), a Nagelring (15-30 MF) and a Rhyme Shield (25). You should get 125-175 more MF. And don't forget the always reliable Gheed's Fortune Grand Charm for another 20-40 MF. This should be doable for a fishymancer.

Have you already socketed the Shacko, Skullders and the Gull for more MF?

After consulting ATMA's drop calculator you get a 136% better change of uniques with 300%MF and a 160% better chance at 450%MF. The chance for sets is 187%/236%.

 

[phatbrava]

i've also gambled my first unique: The Rising Sun amulet

You're shadowkiller IG won't last that long so unless you really don't care then go for it!

A MF necro can have alot of MF.

Chance Guards, two Nagels, skullder's with ptopaz, shako with ptopaz, ali babas with two ists (if you want), Gheeds and a Goldwrap along with MF charms and maybe an MF ammy, Rhyme shield on switch and maybe some War Travs (I always keep my Marrowalks on). You should be able to hit beyond 400MF comfortably at least.

Let your merc have Skullders/Tal's Amor and a Tomb Reaver and Shako for the boss kill and their MF adds to yours for another ~ 220-230MF.

[bill_n_opus1]

I just had an interesting chest drop.

Am doing p8 Pindle/Meph runs. I find that I get way too many full rejuvs and so doing the Pindle and then Meph I tend to use one or sometimes two full rejuvs if Meph focuses on my merc.

Anyways, the chest at the end drops three runes. Ral, Eth, and Tir among the usual piles of gold and potions etc.

I've never gotten three runes from that chest or any other for that matter.

Interesting.

Questing in the Bloody Foothills to go introduce Mr Shenk to my frenzybarb and a rather unexpected pleasant surprise from a quill rat:

http://img43.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshot0054za.jpg

Thus topping the ist I found in nightmare cows a few days ago and equaling the highest hellforge drop I've ever seen.

Should I cube it with the one from hellforge, that puts me an Ohm away from an Exile which a week ago seemed like something I would never even have thought about.

Or I can wait for two jahs and make him two furys since he found both of these
