I am about to start cubing grand charms to make some +to skills ones, and
I was just wondering if someone could tell me where should I search for
a gc to cube. I heard somewhere that gcs found in nightmare
act 3 Flayer Jungle have the highest possibility
of spawning with +to specific character skills, is this true?

Also, does the level of my char cubing the gcs affect the chance of getting
skills on them? And does the difficulty lvl have anything to do with it?

I think i once saw a very good site about cubing gcs, if anyone remembers
it please post it here.

Thx for the help. :howdy:

Any charm from Lvl 85 areas
will be good for you for all prefixes and sufixes

I've seen that NM flayer jungle thingy also. It comes from the fact that GC dropped there have narrower change of becoming something else than skiller I presume. Character lvl doesn't matter but items lvl. Neither does difficulty. But like said it's better to cube high lvl area GC:s or Baal GC:s because then you might get awesome mods with skillers :thumbsup:

I think it's actually possible to cube a GC dropped from "Über Diablo" to a +1 skill charm with 50 life...

I know you can cube Hell Baal GC's to skillers with 45 life..

What about a charm from Pindleskin?

So, all around the best gc's I can cube are ones from Hell difficulty Baal?

I'm only looking for p&b & necro summon gc's, but of course I can trade other
good charms for them, so I guess I'll run Baal until he drops some gcs.

Thanks for the help :clap:

Well tengu, those will be the best IF you want the +4x life mod, if you just want the +skill go for nightmare flayer jungle (about 1% chance to be a skiller, that is a LOT by ingame standard)

I was just thinking, that maybe, after all, it's better for me to search for gc's
in the nightmare Flayer Jungle than Hell Baal.. Also 'cause my bonemancer
has a really easy time killing the Flayers and their kind.


P&B skillers seem to be quite expensive, but i have no idea about the worth of
necro summoning skillers..

Could someone please advice me on the values of different skillers?
I ask this here because no-one has ever answered my question on the trade
values thread.

I believe that poison > summon > curse, but how many p&b / summoning
skillers could i buy with say +bow skiller or +java skiller?
