I wonder if it would be possible to get some good rare item in D2 expansion, then upgrade the char to LoD to bring the good stuff there.

As far as I know, if you think of the items in a game as a set, then the Set of LoD is bigger and includes the Set of D2 non-expansion. I cannot think of anything that is non-expansion only but yet transferrable to LoD.

I'm 99.9% inclined to agree.

There's items that are far easier to obtain in classic that are worth farming there to convert to exp for trading value but I can't think of anything that you can get in classic that you can't get in exp at all.

@louner, there are several items in classic (early patches) that were redesigned as part of LoD? In a sense they're no longer obtainable. Like, the item exists by name, but it's a kind of different item.

Irrelevant I think to the suggestion in your OP, but maybe an interesting piece of trivia for you.

All prices negotiable. BIN always wins. Americas (Pacific), but int'l trade times can be arranged.

Weren't they some items that have been redesigned in a way that they were better before LoD ?

That's a patch version thing though I believe, not classic vs. exp. So classic on current patch would still have it updated.

It should be easier to find SoJs.

I still got some of the old school uniques from the previous patches on legit old d2 battlenet. Like the good version of vamp gaze,

Shako, valor etc... talking 1.07 patch I believe it was?

Im not sure , maybe on Hell mode if you farm specifically that. But I believe most people will farm for SOJ on nightmare and normal in specific zones and bosses, so it eliminates the other ring options available and leaves just a few.
