Second time this happened, two sunders in one game... I was hunting heralds in Tombs until one dropped Cold Rupture and went then on to scavenge the Ancient Tunnels when a random mob dropped Black Cleft... oO

Couldn't get a screenshot of drop. Was too busy scrambling to make space in inventory to pick it up!
You really want to sell this gem? I would make a Fire Lock
After a 20 year break from D2 I started playing D2R in 2024 with my sons (9 and 10 years old)

as happy as I am for you, it's sad how rare and yet unconcentrated this thing is. would be so much better if it rolled -15-30 ro fire or lightning res. would be a viable alternative to Infinity and other mainstream options

I know! I've toyed with the idea of keeping it, but there are just no use cases where another runeword doesn't eclipse it (Obsession, Phoenix, Infinity, Obedience). And I grinded a long time making my Obsession, mostly trading up pgems--I can barely imagine using anything else (except maybe Void in a really good base). Similar situation with Tyrael's Might isn't it?
I'm not saying I got lucky, I got effing lucky
Rolled GC and this came, sold for 2 Zod,2 Jah,2 Ber,1 Cham.
Nothing I previously found comes even close to this.
Nice found, you know that you can sell such charm for 15 Jah or even more?
Yeah, I know, did some calculations, and came to conclusion that this is enough for me
But I do realize that I might have sold it a bit too low price Was too eager to sell, really wanted to get Zods and Cham...
and if Cham is 2x Jah and Zod basically the same.... low indeed
Everyone talks about getting finding things. Well I got lucky crafting an Item. While playing LoD I had a character that created a Blood Ring with 40% Life Steal. Anyone else have this happen in LoD or D2R?

Can you show a screenshot? Was this recent? That must be a bug

I personally think 15F Mang's is BiS for a fire lock IF you get expensive gear in some of the other slots and charms to make up for the missing FCR and resist (if not it's worse). Obsession is a much better value/total stats if you value all the individual components (i.e. how many socket or grand charm slots does it take to make up all the individual stats / equivalent value of FCR) - but, there are a limited number of slots that you can get minus fire res in, so at a certain point if your gear is good enough in your other slots, the Mang's has meaningfully faster killing speed.
Now, while FCR and resist have a point of no more returns that you can match with Mang's with other gear, you cannot easily match the +%life given by Obsession. So, with Obsession vs. Mang's, I have about 14% more life on Obsession (if I also gain +all skills for CTA by swapping out FCR ammy to Mara and 1 Opalvein to SOJ), but -20% more negative fire res with Mang and an additional +5% fire skill damage on the socket. Also +1 skill on Mang's, but this is offset by the fact that I am currently using 1 gc slot on resistance charms (if I spend up on even better gear I can avoid this).
15 on the other stats doesn't matter for Mang's, it's just style points. But very pretty.

I can't remember. Does the -res work on Tainted or only on fire spells you cast (Blood Boil fire damage included)?

I don't think so, although I'm not positive. I don't use Tainted, I just use Chaos tree fire spells. It should work for Blood Boil, but only 50% of Blood Boil damage is fire, so I wouldn't use it over Obsession even with GG gear elsewhere for either of those cases.
