1.

Crystal Sword 6 sockets. Keep. people want these because they have low requirements and will put 6X magic find or gold find runes/gems in it.
2. no one uses dimensional blades its either phase blades for damage rune words or crystal swords for low requirements to use as an off hand on switch for something like gold/magic find or using a support weapon like Call To Arms. its good to note that phase blades are indestructible so they will never appear ethereal.

Phase Blade 15%ed with 5 sockets is the rarest. (u can get

Larzuk to give it 6 sockets any time, u gotta roll in the cube for five or natural drop. so 5 is rare)
3.

Twin Axe is again the exceptional version of the item. For axes you only want berserker axes (elite wep) with 5 (higher value) or 6 sockets. Ethereal and non ethereal is fine. all other axes are trash
4/5/6/7/8. im grouping all the armors in one. For all the normal White armors (elite versions) (4,5,6,7) people only will want generally 2 types of armor. the

Archon Plate/ the

Mage Plate. Armor is classified as light/medium/heavy, and med/heavy have penalties so people go for the highest defense light armor. which is

Mage Plate for exceptional and

Archon Plate for elite. Mage plates are only used for Enigma which is 3 sockets. some people can respec late game with good str gear and put 0 points into str) people wont waste high runes making Fortitude out of a 370 defense

Dusk Shroud, but will use a

Mage Plate or even

Breast Plate with barely any defense because Enigma has

Teleport, and they are moving while casting so def is 1/3rd. if you get an elite armour base with over 500 defense on the roll keep it for percy use. but for trading your generally looking for 3 os

Mage Plate ED/

Eth/BOTH, 3 os

Archon Plate ED/

Eth/BOTH or 4 OS

Archon Plate With JUST ED. if its 4 sockets you only want ethereal if its strictly for your mercenary. 3 and 4 sockets both work without or without

Eth/ed if it naturally rolls high like 524 which is max for

Archon Plate. anything else might get a trade if someone really needs it but if their so poor they dont have their bases yet i dont think youl get much.
8- ethereal

Wire Fleece. this is your rarest/most valuable piece here. ANY etherial elite armour with 3 or 4 sockets is very good to keep. you can make a runeword on that wirefleece for a merc that would have higher def than an archon max roll of 524, so even tho its not archon its worth keeping and still rare.
9)

Berserker Axe only
10) these are only valuable when its +3 to

Conviction AND +3 to

Blessed Hammer/

Fist of the Heavens/

Concentrate. so good luck there LOL.
11) for the

Knout im not exactly sure i think people make Breath of the Dying which is 5 runes. but keep it until you know.
so for armour 3 or 4 os archon/mage plates with high rolls/

Eth/ED
but any ethereal armor with 3 or 4 sockets is more valuable. remember all these late rune words cost a fuck tonne and people wont want to use their runes unless its a top tier base.
for weapons u can get normal quality flails and crystal swords with 6 sockets (mf/gf) or 5 sockets Call To Arms. any ED/

Eth here is status/cosmetic. (

Eth look different) but all have value
for damage rune words youll want the highest base damage and there are specific ones. for axes always

Berserker Axe. phase blades for swords.
Spirit

Monarch is for trap sin and Wind druid too.

Add

Great Poleaxe to the Infinity base list.

4 sock ethereal

Sacred Targe and

Rondache for Exile.

4 socket

Flail for Heart of the Oak.

3 socket

Archon Plate for Enigma. 4 socket for Bramble or Chains of Honor.

4 socket

War Scepter for Rift.
