MF/RF tournament results - Balancing the Finds

[Grisu]

Congratulations @Grisu - Nice finds, any plan for the Zod?

Nope - Aviendha is my UT 99er after all and a Blizzard sorc doesn't really have a use for a Zod rune...I might transfer it to another D2R character once I build some more characters, but I lack the amount of good bases I have in Legacy. No eth Reaper's or such things in D2R yet and no 15% superior eth weapons.
Any recommendations?


Great finds everyone and very neat writeups everybody, esp. @ipsilantee!

 

[Pb_pal]

Dropping in to say a big huge CONGRATS! to everyone, not least of all @Grisu for taking the win. A well-earned victory, and I always love seeing a Zod drop in the SPF.

Well done all, some fun finds among the bunch as well, enjoy your new holiday toys!

Shame I couldn't manage to run this one, but alas RL is majorly in the way. Next year I'll just have to come back and make you all pay.

Thanks of course as well to @ffs for hosting!

I chose to run Pindleskin for 20 hours on /players3 (about same kill speed for my Meteorb sorc, but a small bump in experience). My one and only set wasn't particularly strong, but I was very happy to pick up four grail items, bringing me down to 29 remaining

Spoiler: Grail and Non-Qualifiers

A few TC87s I've needed for a while



The last facet I needed!

I've had a lot of these drop, but not with so much life. Do I just make a singer now?

Thanks again ffs for putting this together and grats to everyone on a lot of cool finds

 

[Kruemelmonschda]

I am late. Sorry for that. I spent the last week on vacation and just got back. So here are my results.

Spoiler: Pindleskin /p1

I started running Pindle with my trapper at /p1 for about 6.5h. During those 6.5h i found all four of my five grailers ([!]), one Skiller, and three of my five final qualifiers in run number #361, #479 and #646.

Spoiler: Pindleskin /p3

As i wanted to reach lvl 90 during the first 10 hours and /p1 was not giving me enough experience i switched then to /p3. I hit lvl 90 after about 9h. During those /p3 runs i found not much, but at least i hit a grailer.

Spoiler: Lower Kurast /p7

I then switched to LK with the same trapper hoping for a lot of runes. Well, runes were scarce unfortunately, but i got a lot of skillers though (8). The Vex Rune even came from a corpse - not from a super chest.
