Gambling for gg items

Hey y’all, I’ve finally gathered all the necessary +gold find charms and got one of my characters to level 93, so imma take up gambling.

Here’s my laundry list of things I’m looking to get (in descending priority):
-Dual leach ring(s) with good secondary mods (my current ones suck),
-a throwing weapon that procs amp damage, has >275ed, and ias,
-2 20 circlets-diadems (seems gambling a griffon’s eye is more likely than finding one outside a town),
-the elusive tri-res, +walk/run, +mf

Boots
-

Has anyone had any luck gambling gg items? Are there any other items I should be looking for?

I’m ssf offline, so unfortunately I can’t trade for anything

I’ve gambled a 28 @res Mara’s, couple of 10 fcr rings with strength and multiple Res, couple of decent Tiaras/Circlets/Coronets. All SSF, give it a try bro just be patient. I’m also hoping for a Griffs

I occasionally gamble, I've gotten some close to GG rare coronets/tiaras, but nothing noteworthy otherwise. Good luck

If you're SSF, the only valuable thing is... what you need.

On my side, I have spent quite a lot on coronets and on rings. Was luckier with rings, but that does not mean anything.

If I were you, I'd simply take the weakest piece of my current build(s) and try to gamble on it my extra gold (on my side I gamble everything that remains on my personal stash as soon as my 3 shared are full).

My only advice is to make an Edge and buy the cheapest

Gheed's Fortune with -15% vendor prices you can find. The best I can remember gambling is

War Traveler, after 80 million gold. Currently hoping for a Griffon's when I get gold back, but doing pindle runs mainly (I think that's more likely than gambling one).

80 million gold

how's that even possible with

Cap of 10 million? you need like 70/4 chars=18 more chars just for hoarding cash.

is that what you did?

Oh, nothing like that. I gambled for

Light Plated Boots over a couple of weeks or more. Just, every time I filled up to the gold cap, I'd gamble 10 mil on boots, then load up on gold again, repeat.

This was a bliz sorc, so it may have taken a month actually. But with a GF barb, probably could've done that much in a couple of days; each trav run is like half a million or more, I've heard.

I think this is pretty unlikely--maybe was more true before they fixed the

Coronet gamble bug.

This is based on my personal experience, not actual measurements or stats, so take it with a grain of salt. I'll be generous and say a gambled

Coronet results in a

Diadem 1 time in 20 (I think it's less than that, but for the sake of argument). The odds of a gambled item being unique is 1 in 2,000. This means your odds of gambling a

Griffon's Eye might be in the realm of 1 in 40,000, assuming you only ever gamble coronets.

Gambled item prices scale by level. I'm going to use a level 85 example, since that's the cheapest realistic character I have (lowest level that could still gamble a

Griffon's Eye).

At level 85, the base gamble price of a

Coronet is 150,940 gold. Reduce by 30% through

Gheed's Fortune and Edge, that's 105,658 gold per gamble. In 10.85 million gold (one full stash plus backpack), the raw number of gambles is 102, with 0.6 of a gamble left over. However, coronets tend to have high resale value--we'll be generous and say it averages to 30,000 gold reselling non-Griffon's back to the vendor. That extends your number of gambles per stash by (102 x 30,000) / 105,940 = 28.9. Leaving you with 102.6 + 28.9 = 131 effective gambles per stash, rounded down.

(40,000 gambles needed / 131 gambles per stash) = 303.8 stashes' worth of gold, or roughly 3 billion gold.

I don't know how long that would take, but a long time. I've heard a gold-find barb might make 500,000 gold per

Travincal run. That'd be 2 runs per million, times a thousand per billion, times 3, or 6,000

Travincal runs. Now,

Griffon's Eye can't drop from the high council, but runes can. And with that many runs, I think you'd find enough runes to buy a Griffon's well before you gambled one.

Could be wrong. I don't know who has the patience to test it.

[edit]
Forgot your backpack gold. Reduces the overall calculation by ~300 million gold, or 600

Travincal runs.

Man thats cool calculations But sory you ABSOLUTLY COMPLETLE WRONG ! Your calculation dont make any sens ! Thats why:

I MUST GAMBLE SOMTHING SPECTACULLAR IN THIS GAME !!!!! Whats calculations ? Thats must be done !

Btw a gambled most of the time coronets/circlets. Meaby 10% of my Gambling was focused on amulets (when i have my crafting Obsession days ,but now im cured ! dont worry !).

My results dont exist to this moment. Once i get

Circlet for my hammerdin to accept for some time... (+2/20/14all res + dont rember). But still not be spectacullar for me because without MF.
Now i have another one with MF but not gambled myself :'(

About amulets.... for crafting...
i get 1 or 2 cathans amulet.
and my best Mahims....

i add even few screenshots in past when i spendingtens of ists for gold only. (i try find one of them). I dont know how many only ISTs i spend for gold but i think that was somthing beetwen 50-70.... only ISTs. I take gold from other sources offcourse but dont have idea how many and from where and hwo....

Thats mean
calculations are wrong !
Im SURE i gamble somthing spectacullar. Thats SURE in 100%.

i dont lie one of the screens i found. when i gambled for ISTS gold.
second best result from crafting i found on screens i have.... ofc i have better one now but that again give as a
100% SURE PROOF thats calculations dont have any value and that mission must be complete ,because world we all known can even stop exisist ! MAN ! DO YOU UNDRSTAND THAT ???

PS screens come from April 2022

Man I’m sure the abc6 guy is really nice and has some good points, but I can tell English isn’t his(or her) first language...I just can’t understand what he’s getting at.

Yea so my barb has just under 1200 gold find, but I still only average like 250k per trav run... wa wa

Yea tracking during these runs I’ll pick up some runes, but I’m ssf, so no trading unfortunately.

I know the chance to find a griffons gambling is low, but it’s also super low from level 85 area running.

I got a highlords and a 29 Maras on back to back days of gambling on bnet. I know this is like 1 in 100,000 and the whole reason I was gambling was for these two amulets or for some crazy +2/10FCR/Str/Life whatever.

If you are gambling tri res

Boots you should do so on a lower level character since it will increase your odds and the gamble will cost significantly less, causing your gold to go a lot farther.

Happy hunting!

If pure ssf, no trading, you're statistically more likely to get a drop from pindle runs than gambling--assuming 200 mf or so. It's a rough grind for sure, but better odds.

If you don't find one first, I'll let you know which happens faster for me. Probably 50 mill in on coronets, maybe 1000-ish runs on pindle.
