You got really lucky? Then share it with us here =)

Just got a

Vex.

My main is level 73, and the highest rune I'd ever seen drop before this was a

Ko. And it wasn't from anything really special, either, just a random monster in NM

Throne of Destruction

Terror zone.

(Also, that

Ko is on the same character. And I'm a hammerdin. Anyone have a

Pul for sale? I think it's just about HOTO time.)

This was my first/only

Ormus' Robes:
It has been sitting on a mule and mocking me for over a year.

This is the

Ormus' Robes that my cold sorc just saw drop from a random monster in P8 terrorized

I got a perfect one with

Nova on it. Only

Ormus i've ever found.

Aaand accidentally sold it by a misclick and a tiny moment's bit of lag...

.

Last week however, has been "interesting"... Mostly levelling my pure fire sorc up to where she could use the sunder charm and start going to hell.

Despite not actually playing that much relatively, found 5 skillers. Shapeshifter, curses, traps, necro summoning...

But then, several times when going to freebie games to drop things off, there's people dropping all sorts of GOOD stuff there that just leaves me a big "WTF???"(not to mention completely stuffed stash).
Like 3 martial arts skillers with 17-23 life each. A Mosaic claw. Almost a dozen

Ko runes. Halfdozen

Fal runes. The player dropping runes even dropped a

Vex, which sadly someone else got first.

Another curses skiller.
And another skiller i cant even keep track of which one it was, because so many this week.
A perfect

Kuko Shakaku. Sure it's not an endgame item, but it's wonderful for rapid levelling in late normal and much of NM

Nosferatu's Coil.

Stormlash.
5

Stormshield. From the same player... (Wait, whaaat? WHY?!? I mean, why did they even have 5 of those on the same character?) (not for me though)

Death's Fathom.

Mang Song's Lesson.

And while doing some NM Baalruns, the other player gave me the Fire skiller that dropped. Very nice for a firesorc, as i didn't have any of those before.

While doing a cowrun earlier today, someone suddenly just decided that i absolutely should have a full

Tal Rasha set. Socketed with Ists. Nice to get a whole set at once, as it fit my

Nova/FO sorc quite well, but more than a little "eh, what, uh ok".

And just now, just for once when i picked up a bad grand charm while doing NM TZ cows(right after finding the traps skiller, rerolled it just twice and got a lightning skiller. I've been used to rerolling over 20 times per charm to get a skiller before... So, 2 GCs drop in a cows game, 1 a skiller, the 2nd only needs 2 rerolls to become a skiller. That's just wow.

+12 skillers in a week of very casual playing.
It's stunning however that people drop so much things that have decent value. Pretty much all skillers except defensive auras have notable value, and midrange runes, certainly...

Right place, right time. That's all it is. Most people drop Sigon and Arctic set pieces, failed crafts, and vendor junk after they've outgrown them while leveling. Other people fewer and farther between step it up more, especially those leaving the game or making space for new ladder characters. Another possibility is if you're about to make a

Jah mule, what's the point of keeping items worth

Ist-

Vex or less?

In LoD, I saw someone post about a free drop game once and I got in to pick up so much stuff from HRs, 40/15 IAS jewels, and famous USEast classic duped rings like Corruption Grip and Viper Whorl.

In D2R, a similar thing happened a couple of years ago in a free drop game I found from in-game search. I got multiple

Ohm,

Lo,

Zod,

Cham,

Sur, and one

Ber. Last week, someone dropped an ethereal

Andariel's Visage that I picked up. In another game, someone dropped a Cure helm that I picked up, then dropped because at the time, I didn't realize that it's one of the newest batch of runewords that can't be created in non-ladder. Oh well.

First run. And she wasn't even dead yet. Also Also And 3 Gheeds.

Not a good drop per se, but a big coincidence...

Dropped a

Boneshade with exactly the same rolls as the

Boneshade in my mule
1

Bone Spirit 3

Bone Spear 2

Bone Wall 5

Bone Armor 5

Teeth
It was my second

Boneshade

(chances of a specific roll according to maxroll: 1/32 - 3.13%)

I have 2 stashed

Boneshade on one of my necros and the other day I put one on swap and noticed they also both have exactly the same roll. I actually thought it might be an item with fixed stats because of it.

Normal Meph run. I already got one

Eth pair with a decent roll for the

Nova Sorc of my son and therefore I think I try selling them unid...

Another lazy Saturday afternoon in Stony Tomb. That grand charm was better!

What makes this lucky is that I had to cube it for sockets and got lucky and rolled 4.

Got a perfect 2/2/2 roll on a

Tal Rasha's Lidless Eye.

Lol, me too (yesterday or the day before. I do not exactly remember)

1) My second Hell Cows turned to a terrorized zone. A few seconds later a

Ber rune dropped.

2) After R2D release I started with a sorc as many others did.
3th act on hell dropped me a

Cham.

Nice one

First

Zod ! \o/

Gifted to me by

Travincal earlier today.
