Description
I had my first HR drop! I imagine I must have been quite lucky, since I've probably only done ~5 hrs of dedicated farming with an efficient build so far.
Buuuuut.... it's a Cham. I had no idea what its value was until I looked it up on the trade value guide. Suffice to say, it's probably still the most high-value item I have so far, but not nearly as valuable as I'd initially hoped. As the website description says: "A rune that, when it drops, makes you think: "Why couldn't I have been just a little less lucky and got a Jah to drop instead?""...
Is it true that its only use currently is mostly to socket for Cannot Be Frozen? Should I hang on to it and hope that new runewords come out that might use it? Or should I try to trade it for 3+ Ist and use that to gear my char? I'm currently farming on a budget Blizz sorc that's using a Druid torch (I know....) and has no skiller charms or Mara, so I could probably kit it out fairly well with 3 Ist. I do already have basic items like a Shako, Magefist, que hegan, Scarabshell Boots. Not sure if I'll regret not keeping it?

Can be used to make Runewords:

If I had that choice, I would keep it till I see what the new runewords are. The patch is coming up and it's value might jump largely. If it doesn't you can still trade it later.
I've found a Cham really soon after the release of D2R, I still have it. More like, I forgot about it - since they announced new Runewords, I'll just keep it to see what will happen or if it gets any more use/value.
For me there's no need to trade it right now.

OP
Is it possible that after the ladder season, we can make those new runewords on normal chars (which have never been in ladder), too?StonerSmurf wrote: 2 years ago If I had that choice, I would keep it till I see what the new runewords are.

I believe they stated that at the end of the ladder season the new runeword(s) will then move to non-ladder. Then, the next season will have season only runeword(s) until the next reset and move on to non-ladder. And so on and so forth.misaochan wrote: 2 years agoIs it possible that after the ladder season, we can make those new runewords on normal chars (which have never been in ladder), too?StonerSmurf wrote: 2 years ago If I had that choice, I would keep it till I see what the new runewords are.

If you're in a rush, you could probably just trade it and gear up your sorc to have an easier time. 3 Ist can get you a Tal Rasha's Guardianship for 1 Ist, a mediocre pair of War Travelers for 1 Ist, and a The Oculus + 2 decent Nagelring. Maybe with some change left over for that last bit. Or a Tal Rasha's Adjudication for 1 Ist or slightly less. So as far as mf goes you'd be fairly set right there if you sold it. Which could potentially lead you to better finds in the "here and now".
Or like you said you could save it until 2.4 runewords are at least announced, see if there's anything in there you will want that requires a Cham, and then make the decision. There's also a chance that prices for it will go up with increased possibility for usable runewords at that point.
All about patience or immediate rewards.
Personally I'd hold on to it. It doesn't take much to decently gear up a sorceress after all. some mediocre finds here and there and you're all set.

They said they will make runewords available to non-ladder characters after each ladder, yes.misaochan wrote: 2 years agoIs it possible that after the ladder season, we can make those new runewords on normal chars (which have never been in ladder), too?StonerSmurf wrote: 2 years ago If I had that choice, I would keep it till I see what the new runewords are.

Awesome! Will keep it, and also keep my fingers crossed. Thank you all.
For what I've understood, the new runewords are just for ladder, so no point waiting on your char for new runewords.
Either, you find a decent runeword that uses it, or just trade it. There might be someone interested in said runeword.

let say 2 month till new ladder start, and 4 month till it ends, so we are looking at at least 6 months till Cham can be used in new runeword for non-ladder season. Also most of trading activity will happen in ladder season, so I dont see much point holding to Cham and hope its value can increase a lot. break it into 3-4 Ist to gear up you toons and enjoy the game now. There is always some thing better in the future.
Remember, a random HR of not your choosing is better than no HR at all.
I would go with a gear option as well. Why?
1. Too much time until new runewords will arrive for non-ladder.
2. Gear helps you to clear up faster and most probably with better MF. The speed of clearing mobs is the most important in this game Therefore, better gear, quicker farming, more items to trade. Just imagine you trade your Cham now for 4 Ist, gear up, farm and in a week you sell enough farmed gear to buy a new Cham with your own currency. Just an idea...
P.S.: For farming the Hell cows you don't even need MF, just speed. So, if you spend a few days farming the Cows, you will get enough Wealth to buy another Cham

I had a friend get a bad trade off that same idea. He rolled a perfect cta 6/6/4 and was offered a Zod. His mind set was its higher than Jah and Ber so F$&# yeah let's do it. He was very sad when finding out the truth and price.
Xbox GT: Cinomed541 add me if you need someone to play with.
Bruh. Let's get real. Spend that shit.
Why just sit on a rune for the next 6 months just so that something might happen?
You gotta wait for the ladder to start, which could be God knows when... then you gotta wait til it ends... no way.
Trade it for Vex + 2 Ist and go buy yourself something nice.
That's way better value than sitting on it.

I say sell it and boost up your sorc. Get Tal's and an Occy and you'll be farming much quicker and will be more likely to land a big drop!
