Good morning everyone.

I just have a question on + Skill Charms.

Where is the best place to find them?

I heard it was in the Flayer Jungle, Nightmare. On the weekend I completed 60 runs.

I found 29 Grand charms, of those only 1 was a skill charm, and a +1 Bow/Crossbow charm at that.

All the other Grand charms had really low mods, like nothing you would even remotely want to keep, stuff like +17 life , 15% fire resistance, with no second mods.

Did I just have poor luck, or is the NM Flayer jungle just a myth?

Or are my expectations too high? Like is it expected that you would find one about every 50 runs or so

I just used a Lightnign Fury Amazon with 200% MF. U dont need MF for charm runs do u ? I just used the Amazon coz she can clear the jungle pretty fast, although since she is so gear dependent I cant load her up with MF gear.

I found 3x Baal Grand Charms 2, I wasted 150 perfect gems to re-roll them, and only got 2 skillers, is this normal?

This was my first time re-rolling grand charms.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Gaz

150 pgems is 50 rerolls. 25 rerolls per skiller. Doesn't sound bad --- how many grand charms do you need to find to get a skiller?

You actually answered your own question before: 29 grandcharms, one skiller. Of course, the sample here is WAAAY too small to guess the real chances, but at least the two results are remarkably similar

No, you didn't have bad luck. It was just about average.

NM Flayer Jungle is not really a myth,
but the % difference is so small as to not really make a difference.
It is the first area you can get a Skillz gc, tho.

Don't confuse these %'s and think any area has a higher chance of dropping a gc,
because they don't.
However, *IF* you do find a gc there, *THEN* the chances of it being Skillz is 1/23.
If you wait till Hell Baal, the odds only increase to 1/24,
so you can see there's not much difference.
Same goes for the gc's you reroll from those areas.

Remember, % is just an average. You won't automatically get one
every 23-24 times. It could be more, it could be less.
Over thousand's of times, tho, it will average out to that.

LOL

I just read on the forums ages ago that the NM flayer jungle was a really good place to go for skillers - I think my expectations were a bit hig, I think I was sort of expecting a skiller every 10-15 runs When realistically finding one about every 50 runs is probably a bit closer.

I found about 1 GC every 2 runs , so I guess the expectation should be roughly 50 runs for a skiller, give or take.

what a Noob I was .


I found a good way to get PGems though to re-roll. Just do your mf runs as normal, and when u find normal/exceptional uniques, just open up a game called "trading for PGEMS"

heaps of ppl will join, then just trade each unique for 2-10 gems.

After about 1 hour of MF, u can easily sell your gear to low level characters for their cubed up gems , and then have around 50 gems. Plus they will think the normal / exceptional items u r giving them are 'l33t' gear.

very useful for re-rolls.
