unidentified duriel's shell

I got a duriel's shell from hell andy, but it has a base defense of 203. The range for cuirasses is 188-202. Why is this one 203? Maybe a mistake on the Arreat Summit?
 
Re: unidentified duriel's shell

Duriel's Shell has got the "Enhanced Defense %" mod (like most of the armors). All items with that mod have a defense of max+1.
 
Re: unidentified duriel's shell

Unqiue body equipment (such as unique shields and armors) with ED have maximum base defence +1. For example, you'll notice all UNID Moser's have 56 defence. This is why things like The Spirit Shroud and Skin of the Vipermagi always have the same defence stat (because their %ED is static).

If you upgrade, then the base range comes into play.

Edit: got pwned.

Note that this is not just for uniques, it is for every item with +% enhanced defense that wasn't made by the cube.
 
Re: unidentified duriel's shell

Ok, this is messed up. The duriel's ided itself in my stash. It was stowed in the h cube. I am not kidding, it identified itself in my cube, in the stash.

I have an unidentified bone helm in the stash, outside the cube. It is still unid.
 
Re: unidentified duriel's shell

Did you maybe "Identify all items" at cain, before you found the bone helm?
I've done this a lot and wondered how my unid torch got IDed ..

Anyways, note the max_defense + 1 is only for things that SPAWN with ed. If you take an armor and make a rune word out of it that adds ed (like fort) the defense WILL NOT be set to max + 1 for the calculation of the ed. I found this out the hard way :sniff:

When you have Cain identify your items, he identifies everything in your inventory and cube, regardless of where the cube is. Anything in the stash but not in the cube is left alone.



 
Re: unidentified duriel's shell

No, the bone helm and cuirass were both gotten from hell andy at the same time. The cuirass (in h cube, in stash) was ided and the bone helm (in stash, next to h cube) wasn't. The cube was in my stash, so its contents shouldn't be ided. Maybe this was a fluke.
 
Re: unidentified duriel's shell

Read the above statement again. He identifies anything in the cube regardless of where the cube is (ie. even in stash).
