At first i thought it has 0 bonuses and is bugged.

Drop from hell council btw

Now that is a fail drop that is hard to beat.

Thanks for the socket!
On ladder, could have really used some value here.

Game uses

Taunt.
It is super effective!

For me this ranks directly after an ethereal

Arachnid Mesh... (btw. my first

Steelrend)

Chances to remove dura on gloves is quite low and you need 10 less Strength to wear them ^^

That is an interesting thought. Maybe I use them to do some Ubers...
Fortunately the game has compensated me with "almost" an Enigma one hour later

Can be used by a bowazon since she is rarely get hit. But 175str on a bowazon is quite such

I had just enough time to do a single

Tal Rasha TZ. In the very first tomb I came to I had two Sunder Charms drop at the same time. Now usually I would think this would qualify as lucky but sadly both Charms were useless to me, so yes this is in my view a failed drop.

Does failing yourself also count?
I just ran Ubers for the first time and:
- turns out ravenfrost looks very simlar to

Nagelring and the extra 28% MF did not help...
- I kept pressing the wrong button and apparently charging and smiting enemies are very differently efficient...
-- I forgot to activate

Holy Shield

somehow I managed to get through...

I wouldn't say the poison charm is useless, it is well rolled, someone playing a poisonmancer for example would love it. A fire sunder charm, even a bad rolled one, can be useful for a fire char using a Flickering Flame. Since this runeword provides

Resist Fire aura, it offsets the resistance reduction.

I realize the Poison Charm isn't that bad but I've already found multiple perfects and they don't trade for enough to warrant space in my stash, so I will generally toss them in a free for all game or give them away. I currently have several perfect

Flame Rift charms and I'm handing them out for free. I don't keep any elemental charms over -74% and a

Bone Break over -14%.

We all have some bad days, good that at least you made it. Kind of self-hardened playstyle

Tried to re-roll my 13 aura 1 skills Faith, and get... 12 aura 1 skills ...
Well... at least the next re-roll cannot worse...

Next re-roll was 14 aura 1 skills ... not exactly what I wanted, but now I can achieve last breakpoint with 50 ias. Will stop re-roll for a while.

At the same room, dropped both a grey Superior

Bill and a grey superior

Battle Scythe
both with 4 sockets and some % ed
but... none were ethereal

(for those who don't know why it would be a very good drop if they were ethereal, ethereal

Bill is the only exceptional Insight base Act 2 Merc can use on L27, ethereal

Battle Scythe may be used on L27 too with a little dex bonus - like

Twitchthroe)

I mean, a skiller is a skiller, but I almost had a heart attack in the microsecond I read that as +50 to life (I know that's impossible).

Free

Shako! 3:)

Still new to the game, really surprised i got this. No screenshot, you'll just have to trust. :p


I was farming arcane for my first keyset to uber trist. At the same time it was a tz, which made me go for it.

While trying to get to

The Summoner, my first high rune EVER in the game dropped:

Cham. At this point I knew that in scnl

Jah was pretty much the most valued rune and I was so pissed that it couldn't have been a bit lower.

A few runs pass, and in the same hour another rune, my second high rune, drops. This time, a

Zod. I know that this is probably extremely lucky but I am still pissed, even 2 months later that they couldnt have been a bit lower.

I think it took me three tries to get a 15/2. 1 in 8 odds aren't terrible considering how much variability some other items can have, and at least Faith's enhanced damage is static, but a bad run of luck can still cost you a dozen

Jah runes.

eRep triRes!
