Tyrael's Mighty Breakdown - Item Find Thread September 2015

@krischan seems like really nice pair of gloves for a build like Phoenix Striker. Would've used those on mine, for sure. Probably has other uses as well, especially when opting not to go with Venom and Trang's, or not feeling the need for Life Tap (Dracul's).
 
Interesting find by my Trav barb:

View attachment 3832

2 MA, 20 IAS plus almost perfect fire res, perfect MF and a small str bonus. That's four pretty good affixes and a useful one. That sounds rather good, but
I don't know much about MA assassins. It seems that Trang's gloves are popular, so is that a useful pair of gloves?
Not much good at all, so if 1.13 gieb to me........LOl
 
@krischan: Definitely keepers, at least until you craft a pair with 10% CB too. I recommend Tiger Strike / Dragon Tail or Phoenix Strike. Both great fun builds.

Also racked aldur's armor because whatever I had a good rack. Haven't seen a single winged helm rack ;(
 
I rolled a +1 traps/+5 dex Gc -> rerolled to a +1 lightning skill gc -> rerolled to a max dmg gc -> rerolled to a +1 pnb gc. Never have I ever had such good luck with rolling skillers. Unfortunately, this is an ilvl94 gc so I couldn't justify keeping them :/
 
Why for heaven's sake did you reroll a traps/5 dex skiller into something else? Being a Baal/Nith/Diablo GC isn't enough of a reason. Even if you didn't have another one with worse affixes, you should have saved your pgems until you found one.

Besides, rolling up a good affix together with 41+ life is very unlikely, so it would be a waste of resources to put all your pgems into that, rather than rolling up others as well and live with not having a chance on 41+ life on a couple of them.
 
I agree with @krischan
There's only three reasons to do that:
- One is filthy rich having so many PGs and knowing they would never use such "plain" skillers (and doesn't want to keep it for trading)
- One does not need such type of skillers (ever) and is "Baal" GC low
- One is playing 100% vanilla
 
You're right. I didn't think about that. I typically don't trade but I've found that there are some items (like 1.07 bases) that I"m just not willing to put the work into getting.

I'm not so much hoping for a +life skiller. I would take +skill/fhr, max/ar/life gcs, res/life gcs, etc. I mean it would be nice if I found a +life skiller. I don't really use +1 skill grand charms unless they have some sort of good suffix. I would much rather put a 3x 20 life or +life/+res sc's in those spaces rather than plain skillers. The only character I'm actively working on improving right now are my 85 barbarian and 93 sorc.

Trading, yes. You have a valid point. However, the ilvl94 gc is more valuable to me than anything I could get via trades for a +1 skiller without a good suffix.

I see your points and they make sense. It's just that I have my goals set and things like that aren't worth keeping for me personally. I've found that a light sorc and trapper both do enough damage without cluttering up their inventory with plain skillers. The PnB gc would have been worth keeping but I figured if I let that slide then I'm likely to let other things slide. I run LK for pgems and 4os monarchs so I find a few plain skillers here and there.

Once again, thank you for your input. I don't mean to seem like I"m brushing it off or anything.

Side note:

Took a shot at crafting some more caster amulets today. Went through just under 50 before I ran out of P. Amy's. I found a couple that were worth keeping for levels 49ish when leveling new sorc's. I also found a +2 sorc/10fcr/28str one. That will definitely be a placeholder! I also came across some dual leech amulets with level 95 req. I haven't seen that before so it was interesting.

I also spent some time today rerolling an 11% 4os monarch into a 35% spirit. Took me 33 tries before I got it. I hit 34% about 6 times but I finally got that 35. It's not perfect by any means but it's mine haha.

I have quite a few spirit sets and hel runes left over so I might try and take a shot at rolling a few 35% in other monarchs. After today's attempt at rerolling gc's I have 1 perfect topaz left. I'm fresh out of all other gems with the exception of 20 or so p. ruby's I"m saving for a large blood ring craft.

33 times.. :eek: And I was frustrated with the 4 rolls it took me to get 32%.

Not the worst role I could have gotten.
 
Sorry for slightly hi-jacking the thread (also kinda related to brief discussion in previous pages).

Obviously you should take screenshots of all the high runes you find, but how do people deal with running Countess and runes like Pul-Ist? I just got my lightning sorc to Hell Countess, already found Mal (have screenshot), but I was wondering, do people post screenshots of every individual rune find or just a haul pic? I'm going to take screenshots of all Lem+ drops, but is a haul pic enough of "proof"? Just trying to limit the chances imgur will get at frustrating me with the image upload that seems to work like every 5th time for me.
 
There is no proof on single player, it's all about trust. Cheating is much easier than on bnet. Nobody could hinder people from duping something, dropping it at a place where it could be found and in a proper manner and bragging with a screenshot here.

With a bit organization and knowledge, a cheater would have no problem to keep his dirty secrets for himself here without ever being caught, even when trading. As Yoda said: The dark side is faster, easier, more tempting.

But cheaters beware! You have to take measures to prevent being busted by people who know a few extra details about this issue and I'm not just talking about item levels and such ;)
 
@Neksja

If you choose to post screenshots, it is up to you how will you do it. Instead of uploading 10 pics, I'd do one haulpic and voila. If you really want to post screenshot of every rune, well, go ahead. People usually don't take screenshots of anything below Vex because Vex+ is needed for trading purposes and runes below Vex are rather "frequent" type of runes with less value overall.

Either way, it is fine whatever you choose.

Actually it is pretty close to the worst roll. GoMule adds the 50% Enhanced Damage for the 1.07 Base to the ED figure. So this is actually a 307% ED Death roll.
