All Diablo2 Talk here.........

Well, finally had a decent day finding things…

First thing to drop was a Boneshade… I’m not sure what perfect is, but mine ain’t perfect. But I like it. Then I got a 3/5 die lightning Facet jewel that will come in very handy on my zon. After that I got a Lightsabre, maybe inexpensive, but still…

The best find of the day was… a cham rune. :slight_smile: I’ve never even seen one before.

I play on US West.

Other things…

The only “elite” uniques I’ve found are the Ethereal Edge silver-edged axe. That thing was awesome, and I was saving it for a Berserker axe-barb I was making. Unfortunately, it vanished into thin air. No idea what happened to it. Checked every character I have to see if I just forgot where I muled it, and it wasn’t on any of them :frowning: The other elite is the Windhammer ogre maul. My WW Fury Druid found that - Hell Baal dropped it for him. Most perfect drop I’ve ever gotten from a boss - my druid was using mauls/warclubs/ogre mauls. Specifically, he’d was using IK maul until Baal dropped the Windhammer.
Pit runs: just how much MF do you need to get something in The Pit? I’ve found zilch in there. White text everywhere I look. Not even any blue items! On the other hand, I was on my way to The Pit one day - I had just stepped out of the Monastery and into the Tamoe Highland - and when I killed the Champion Spearbabe camped outside the door she dropped Corpsemourn. Continued on to The Pit, where I again found nothing at all.

Current character in progress is my Wind Druid, who is now in A2 NM, and has yet to die.

Couple things:
MDSL: i’ll try to get on tomorrow to drop off that goldskin
Phase42: i might have an extra Ethereal Edge lying around – if i do you can have it. I just gave one away on a baal run this week, i wish i had known that you wanted one :frowning: OTOH you could always have that Cranium Basher i offered MDSL. Also, i have a few pretty nice elemental druid amulets, in case you need one (rare +2 elemental skills and some other decent mods).
Who: congrats on the Cham, that’s the highest rune i’ve heard of drop secondhand. Those trade pretty well as well, iirc.

By the way while i was playing in hell today Mav’s armor and Nat’s armor dropped, so if anyone needs either they’re welcome to them – otherwise they get stuffed on my set armor mule.

Also, i’m going to be trading off 12 annis again soon, probably friday afternoon. I’ll provide the list here first in case anyone wants to claim any before i trade them off:
16/14/7
16/13/6
16/13/6
15/11/8
14/12/9
14/12/8
13/13/6
13/12/7
13/12/6
11/19/5
11/17/5
10/14/6

Damn, the trading value is screwed up in West… I posted a message asking the OP in a thread how much he wanted for a Harlequin Crest and a Skullders. He replied that he wanted a pul-um for the Shako (about what I expected) and an um for the Skullders.

An UM for a Skullders??? He offered his Tal armor for an um to someone earlier… The Skullders wasn’t upgraded although it was ptopazed. I’ll think I’ll counter-offer and try to get the Tal armor instead, although the mf isn’t as good, the resists more than make up for it.

I’m going to have to read more threads on the rpgforums just to try to find out what I can get for the cham… I have no clue at the moment.

Teach me to read some posts after I post…

Phase42, I do have an Ethereal Edge on a mule. I have a lvl 14 or so barb I made to use it, but I’m really not playing him at all so he may never be able to get the levels necesary. You can have it if you want it. I also have a +1 elemental gcharm somewhere and maybe a +3 elemental druid ammy. If you want any of it just find me in game sometime.

And while we’re at it with the skill charms, some random cow gave me an offensive auras GC. First West paladin I see on battle.net gets it; it wouldn’t do much for mine (conviction maxes out a little above level 20).

Who_me?, are you saying that Tal’s armor should be worth more than Skullder’s? I suppose the resists are nice, but there are plenty of other ways to get resists. And the Skullder’s also has +1 to all skills. The only way I’d prefer Tal’s would be if I were wearing at least one or two other items of the set.

Yeah. I am saying that there is no way to value Skullders and Tal Rasha’s armor equally. You can keep the 20-some extra magic find, I’ll take the resists and extra defense every time. The +1 is nice, but not necessary.

Well, I’m the proud owner of a shako and Tal’s armor. Now let me see what I can find.

MDSL, i just found an extra Spirit Shroud on one of my brother’s mules, if you still want it.

Chronos if nobody else has claimed that offensive aura Gc, my pally would appreciate it. I’ll be on in 20 minutes or so, so if you’re around i’ll come by and pick it up.

theckhd, my paladin is holding the GC for you now…

And that’s the only way to wear Tal’s. Resists are for charms!

thanks Yeti, i’m sure i’ll see you this evening to get it.

Phase42: i found my Ethereal Edge by the way, so if Who hasn’t given you his, you can have mine.

theckhd and Who_Me:
I might take you up on that (Ethereal Edge). Ladder or non? I found and lost mine on non-ladder, and so the Berserker I was making is also non-ladder. But if you have it on ladder, I can always make a new barb :slight_smile:

I probably won’t be on BNet until Sunday (May 2). It’s Apple Blossom Festival week here, so I’ll probably be out and about tonight and Saturday.

Sturmhauke, the first pit run after you left netted an Aldur’s Deception armor… You have to get the druid to level 76 to wear it though. I’ll hold it for you until you want to take it.

Damn, didn’t realize this went to the next page…gotta move my bookmark.

I still prefer the Tal’s over Skullder’s. I have too many charms on him now to have room for enough resist charms to get me out of negative resists. I prefer magic find charms and 3 small 7% charms even out the mf loss where 3 small resist charms wouldn’t make a dent in the 40% cold, lightning, and fire resistance I get from the Tal’s. The Tal’s is also harder to find and can be used on my sorceress if i get the rest of the set. I just think the upside of the Tal’s is greater for the same price.

My Eth Edge is Ladder, by the way.

my eth edge is ladder as well. If you start a new char it shouldn’t take long for you to catch up to my Concentration Barb (i think he’s around 28), then you’ll even have someone on ladder to play with :slight_smile:

w00t, good news. Got a Jalal’s for you MDSL. Next time you’re on i’ll deliver.

Hmmm - might need a rush to get quickly up to clvl 55 to use that axe!

Actually we have two Jalals… we got a second one last night. So, if you see either me or theckhd, you get one.

Also found a +2 necro skills rare head the other day. Whichever necro didn’t get the Marrowwalk is welcome to it (it has a bonus to Bone Prison, so it’d negate the Marrowwalk bug).
