found this in terrorized Chaos. Not sure if going to trade or keep for style points

This looks extremly rare... blue

Monarch + 4 OS +

Eth + self repair! Nice! I suppose because of the rareness there is no info about trading values in the web. I think this shield would be nice for a Javazon.

Eth. titans +

Eth. blue faceted

Monarch.

Seems none of these have ever traded here so no clue on the actual value/relative to JMoD.

Yup, only found 2 threads on d2jsp ISO it (I don't think either ever found it), but no actual trade data. How would you speculate one would evaluate an item like this?

Excellent question.

Realistically, you're looking at roughly 3x the rarity of a JMoD in the stats alone (basing that on maxroll claims..alternatively, repair has 2 levels of which you got the better one but so does a JMoD so at equal math it'd basically be the same the rarity as a JMoD).
Except you also need this to be

Eth (5%) vs. JMoD to not be

Eth (95%) so that's another 19x the rarity.
Meaning overall you're probably looking at somewhere around 19 to 57ish times the rarity of a JMoD here.

At the same time, it is objectively better than a JMoD for more builds than not.

And that's still ignoring the style points a lot of folks would see in it being

Eth.

So assuming JMoD is still around 30

Jah, give or take, personally I would place this at at bare minimum 200

Jah, probably significantly more tbh (as in 4 digit amounts). But that's just me...would love to know what others may think (and what you ultimately end up getting, if you do sell it).
[Personally not a fan of the

Eth style, otherwise I'd swap you my JMoD in a heartbeat ]

That said, let's not completely derail this topic with your

Monarch, baller as it is. Do feel free to add a post in the price check forum for it to get some more feedback. There's bound to be folks far more qualified at pricing things than me.

Gotcha, yeah most people seem to be falling into either the "wow that's super rare, style points or not" and the "it's not BIS, JMOD is better cause block %, therefore this is garbage" camps.

So, I started playing with a friend about two years ago, in 2022, played for a couple of months and gave up the game.
Recently, we suddenly remembered her again and continued to play and farm around the fan together.
By the end of the second week, I start complaining to a friend that the drop is not happy at all, the maximum rune is east and some not very expensive unique items, a friend explains this by saying that the game is preparing something special for us
And so, two days later, I go into the game, go to the horror zone to Diablo, 1 race the rune

Zod falls, 4 or 5 race this cute charm falls from Diablo himself. When I read its properties, I didn't understand it right away....

This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. And I have a child.

Magic / Rare stuff preccedes high runes and this is one of those.

What i want to know is has anyone reached you or has your inbox on this site been flooded by private requests?

And to think it usually takes forever for me to get 1

I hope for you that your wife cannot see this posting...

Some weeks ago I decided to go for 200 FCR on my Lightning Sorc. Even though these builds might not be the best damage dealers, I love the fast paced play style that comes with it. So I equipped some crappy Blue 10 FCR Amulet, Skin Of the Viper Magi and so on. Of course a 2-20 Sorc Amulet would be nice, so I started selling low value items for crafting materials (I hesitate to spend runes for it). After ~70 amulets I got my first more or less plain 20 FCR Amulet (without skills). I was happy and equipped 15/Lightning

Ormus' Robes. Some amulets later I got this beauty and I am still stunned. My sorc might not be happy about it, but I for sure am

i would trade for that ngl.

This looks to me like a really decent Fortitude base for a merc.

Probably both the best

Sacred Targe I've found and Spirit runeword roll combo I've gotten so far.

And this is why the game will be played for many more decades .

Today my best drop from pit 2

Terror zone

When lucky might be unlucky! For many of us in the U.S, Thanksgiving is a Holiday week off. I figured this would be a good time to do a little casual

Key farming, so I made a pack with myself. Starting today, I would play only as long as it took to get a single

Key and then get off for at least an hour before doing another

Key run. I revved up my Sorc, and headed to

The Arcane Sanctuary. Sadly it took a little less than 15 seconds to find and kill him, he dropped 2 keys, and being true to my pack I logged off. Oh well, I can always play solitaire for an hour???

I think you'd need to play solitaire for 2 hours since he dropped two keys :p

I don't wanna calculate how likely a roll like this would be. This is so damn close to perfect. Invaluable.

Lucky me: This was my third Grief roll. I'm not min-maxing every runeword, because I am not super-rich, and only using self-found bases, so I guess this is the best weapon I ever possessed. I think of personalizing it.

I've been debating if I got really lucky, or the opposite...
And soon after
So close, and yet so far...
