Oh, and your right about using up my luck for the next 8 years, the next run i got a breast plate. guess the colour....:rolleyes:

Blue. Magical Breast Plates are as common as snowflakes on Mount Arreat.
 
Man, that is a bit tricky.

I think the one that sounds the best would be to make an SPF Relic.

You could build on that and do weekly mini-tournements were you can win the SPF Relic for a day. Not these full blown tournements but simple ones that could be accomplished in a day. Or the best response to FB's top 5 polls.

As for something useful, I really like the idea socketing and then unsocketing and making an uber runewood in the indestructible eth item.

I know this can be a real delima, to date, I've found 5 runes higher than Um and of those 5 I have exactly 5 still sitting in my stash. If nothing else, I'm feeling inspired to go and make something useful instead of letting them sit and rot.
 
rofl u shld gib me teh zod ruen so i kan uz it 2 maek teh ubar wapnz!!1

ROFL!!1

(Congrats. Now hand it over, spanky. :p )
 
*cups hands over mouth* Chaos! Chaaaaaaaaos! I need you!

The best option is saving it for that sexy, sexy ethereal rare weapon. Some ethereal Thunder Maul, Cryptic Axe, Giant Thresher, War Pike, Archon Staff, Cryptic/Mythical Swords, Assassin claws or other uber elite with 400%+ ED, 20-40% IAS, scaling AR and damage, and multiple sockets among other things. You could try getting the forum involved with a 'best rare --zodworthy contest' Rares have so many style points over uniques its not even fair.

If per chance, the rare idea doesn't work (because God knows not everyone shares my unhealthy lust for them) I would say socket it into an ethereal tomb reaver along with 2) 40% ED/15% IAS jewels for the meanest Fury druid this side of battle.net. Could use it to entice icebird to leave WoW and come back to his D2 roots... ;)
 
Well... obviously you should use it in a wirt's leg and make some weird kind of character around it for your wirt leg grail thingy... :p


gratz on the find by the way... i know i would be depressed by it :scratch:

i like the sound of this. "THE ZODWORTHY RARE CONTEST" has a nice ring to it. i havent seen any real good ideas for the zod (besides socket then unsocket and make doom) and im sure the contest would get more attention. unfortunately i have no rare worthy of a zod but i bet other people do. and i thought i was lucky when i found a cham but wow. Congrats bob on the amazing find. good luck finding someone worthy of it.

Just find an ethereal superior great poleaxe with 5 sockets, socket your zod and use the cube recipe to unsocket it. You willl notice that the weapon remains undestructible. Then it is ready for the 5 runes of Doom, and you will have the most expensive runeword weapon ever!

It can work also with Giant Threshers, Legendary Mallets, Thunder Mauls, Berserker Axes, Glorious Axes or Champion Axes.

Or just give it to me, I am a man of ideas! :)

Anyway, congratulations. Don't waste it. You might just have fun with something like this:

Matriarchal Pike
Two-Hand Damage: 55 to 229
Durability: 13 of 13
(Amazon Only)
Required Dexterity: 139
Required Strength: 122
Required Level: 60
Spear Class - Slow Attack Speed
Item Version: 1.10 Expansion
Item Level: 84
Fingerprint: 0xd182b21e
+2 to Javelin and Spear Skills (Amazon Only)
Ethereal (Cannot be Repaired), Socketed (6: 0 used)


If that is true, i think mine is gonna be cleaned and dusted off then im gonna have one sexy runeword ( ethereal indestructable enigma, coh or beast berzerker axe anyone? )
 
About that zod glitch, I'VE HEARD OF IT! Test it first before doing the real thing. Don't wanna people whining about how they lost their Zods and Hels.

Also, it is a bug. No feature here. It is cheesy, may be frowned upon by some of us, and might even be corrected in future patches (yeah, right), making the whole thing less than useful.

Watch out.
 
gratz on the find Bob :worship: , couldn't have happened to a more stand-up fella.

if you decide to give it away, i also like the idea of "best rare item" type scenario. i'm very interested in seeing what people have out there. i recently found a 330% ED/10 ias composite bow that i'm upping for my newly created strafezon. i too think rares are much sexier than uniques.

well, whatever you decide, enjoy the moment...cheers!
 
One dream came true, now for the next, keep it 'till you find a Rare 450% ED Ethereal Elite Weapon worth socketing into.
 
Congratz to your beutiful Zod Bob, amazingly lucky :worship: , but I would be more happy if I can find a freakin ber rune anytime soon.

DX

Ahhh, guys do not, I repeat do not do this to your items. The glitch only works/worked on items that were zodded in .09 and then had the zod removed in 1.10. Lots of people did this with eth arreats faces and zak shields on bnet (among other things) to give them crazy defense while still being able to socket them with something more useful (read: 40/15s, um/resist jewel, etc..). I am not sure if the glitch has since been fixed but that is/was how it was done.

That being said, don't do this with your zod farting bob!!

P.S. Other than the sexy rare idea, I am really loving the eth stormlash or eth 3 socket tomb reaver idea :).
 
Nice find Bob. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. I agree with most here, save it for a rare. I remember seeing an assassin claw that was ethereal with close to 450 damage or there abouts. The guy zodded it. I can't recall if it was here or the assassin forum (where the zod would 99.99999% be illegit).

Just save it and wait. Or make a BOtD bow to reward the amazon who found it. Just the fact that bows aren't ever ethereal would be enough to irritate some people.
