[Hypa]

Just wondering out of curiousty whos got the highest % wise in a BOTD weapon,Plz state wat realm you are on too if u can :thumbsup:

[Arieta]

Well, i cant afford one but i believe l2aider has a 412% Eth Zerker, he posted it somewhere.

[thedarkchild]

Blobs has a 414% ebotd zerker and i saw a 415% ebotd zerker b4.

[hyphon12]

I have a 394% Eth Botd Great Poleaxe... maybe not the best but mad style points and it was my first try, so give me some credit =)

[Omikron8]

Kudos to you! A Great Poleaxe looks way better on a Barbarian than a dinky berserker axe or a sword/shield setup.

[Taz]

better than a ghost spear/g trasher/war pike too imo.

[Asheron]

Blobs has a 414% ebotd zerker and i saw a 415% ebotd zerker b4.

woah,I didn't knowz0r.. O_O;; Blobs is teh sex. :surprise:

[TheKbob]

I have made BotD:

Crusader Bow
Eth Zerker
Eth CB
Eth Great Poleaxe (x2, they that good!)
Eth Ghost Spear

I only have the CB(which is lame %) and my Best GP (389%/15%) still with me. I usually get pretty lame rolls on mine. My zerker got 361% :cheesy:

Ghost Spear I think got 380s and Crusader got 370s?

No 400%+ for me though, that warpike would be dreamy.

~Kbob

[LordDrift]

I have a
414%Ed Eth BOTD Zerker Axe(believe me i traded so many runes for this)
379%ED Eth BOTD Zerker Axe

USWest/Non Ladder

[Fearoth]

400/12 Eth Cb- was done in a normal CB so perfect Ed rolled :) and who cares about life leech anyway Oo.

[Meosha]

...and the fact that all of these have been made with duped runes disturbs no one?

[ch33s3 m4st3r]

I have 1 account with mules full of eth botd zerkers all 415/15 and 1 account with mules full of eth botd cbs all 415/15

[Omikron8]

At some points you realize that dupes control the economy and have destroyed all other trade values and you accept their existence and use.

[Meosha]

Perhaps I should be more specific.

How many of the people responding to this thread are dupers themselves?

[ƒenris]

I'm a duper.

I did find the ohm for my chaos in the pit though.
I have

Lol I owned cheese master's exile/botd charger with my 09 smiter, using a norm HoZ and priests ws of quick. 0 combats. Then he took me off f list and went to cry.

Like Omi said, you just need to accept the fact that duping happened. I'm not supporting it, or saying it was a good thing, but it happened, and there's no changing it now. I don't mind dupes myself anymore; I view them as just another unique item in the game. I mean, it's not like they're hacks; they DID actually spawn at some point and time, so I've just come to accept their existance.

As for duped runes, there's no way of knowing whether one is or one isn't, so it's not worth worrying about. That's just way the game is now.

[ƒenris]

My ohm isn't duped. GG.

damn ill just have to take 5min out of my time to find my own, o well.

[mcm]

I made an ebotd war pike just because i found the war pike, ended up being 398%, but its so slow I just use it on my mf sorc merc.
I also have a 394% ebotd zerker but I trade for that one, I didn't make it myself :( I'm kinda scared to make more, I think I used up all my luck with the war pike.. 50% is such a big range too... I guess its not as bad as the PURE GAMBLING that you do when making a bramble..
Pretty much all of my runewords have sucked, mid 40% dooms with low ED, low ED beasts, 750 enigmas. Sigh. The one perfect runeword I've made is a crescent moon, got +11 magic absorb (all I cared about when making it :)

[Pure-Hate]

I have a 397/15 ebotd zerk and a 409/13? ebotd great polearm =)

[Da1nONLY]

:scared: *runs away from the goodness* O.o

i have zero eth botds, now what?

[Loca`ne]

ok please forgive my newbness but what does the eth stand for before botd? At first I thought the e stood for elite but then I saw Eth... totally clueless unless for some reason you all are using the Eth rune name. And even then... still clueless. :\

also, to keep ontopic, I plan to make a Giant Threasher botd weapon for my polearm ww/conc barb. Hopefully i'll get some decent mods. ;)

It stands for Ethereal. Since Breath of the Dying contains a Zod rune, it has the Indestructible mod, and as such can be used with Ethereal items without the normal Ethereal problem of the item permanently degrading.

[Loca`ne]

ooooooooooooooh, that makes total sence!

and because it's etherial it has better base damage therfore better ed damage. ok thx so much... that's a total help! :-) would have wasted this Zod rune I just got on some supierior giant threasher.

[xtc_sazabi]

412% ed ebotd zerker for me. West NL.

[Killfrenzy]

i recently aquired a 385% eth zerker axe. HURRAY FOR ME!

[LoneRunner]

I made my own ebotd, found the Axe. Guess what? 355%ed... crap.

For the future, I look for a good rune to make a fair trade (maybe): my ebotd + the rune for a 385%ed+, let's say. It made me sad when I saw it, but I got lucky first time, by finding it, didn't I?

[LeTHaL_BaNaNa]

I made an ebotd war pike just because i found the war pike, ended up being 398%, but its so slow I just use it on my mf sorc merc.


I hate those ppl...

[Watzit2ya]

Worst Ebotd i made Was from a Eth Sup CB had 14% ED from superior, it turned out to have 369%. Never been so pissed in my life.

Second one i made was from another Sup CB with 13% on the superior, it has 408%/15ll made it worth while

[Soepgroente]

I have 1 account with mules full of eth botd zerkers all 415/15 and 1 account with mules full of eth botd cbs all 415/15
You really rock.

[Sint Nikolaas]

:lol: this thread..

really guys, nice of you that you care enough for the commerce on bnet etc. luckily trading / pvp / pvm isn't screwed with all this shiz..

:grrr: Sint :grrr:

[mcm]

You're not crying are you? harden up man.. they're just bits on a wire after all..
And to the guy whining about my use of the war pike.. well, it was a dumb thing for me to do (making it in the first place) and I wanted to exemplify the fact that I seem to make good runewords with low use and crappy runewords with high use. The war pike is just too slow for anything but a charger (and merc.) I did try to make a zerker barb for it, just to see 20k zerk dmg on the player stat screen, but damn does he get his *** kicked! (0 block, no def = bad idea)

[Lunatic]

359/15 eth BotD GT. :P Gogo grim reaper looks with sucky %ed. :P

[ivan_elverlund]

I have a 400%ED/52AR/14%LL Great Poleaxe on europe ladder. Nearly all the runes and the pole are legit. The zod is from a trade, so i cant say where it comes from?! And true the GP is really a great weapon.

[kfowler]

Better to have dupes than iths, hexs and whites. At least dupes are actually based on real items.

[Kretschmer]

BOTD has ith stats, anyways.

[kfowler]

BOTD has ith stats, anyways.

It may have Ith stats but at least there is the possibility of legitimately creating this weapon. However, small. A monster will never drop an Ith.

[Asheron]

A monster cannot drop a BotD weapon either,it can only be created and Ith weapons were created with runes just like a BotD now so yea. T_T

[skygoneblue]

Ith? I have a ton of Ith runes. Did I miss something?

[dnaumov]

Ith? I have a ton of Ith runes. Did I miss something?
You missed the hacked "ITH" items from the 1.09 patch.

[skygoneblue]

Ok, fill me in! :grrr:

[gvandale]

Ok, fill me in! :grrr:
imagine items with stats like botd etc, back in 1.09 when that was impossible. it was done through a stupid hack method, and came out with insane stats.

g

[Soepgroente]

They used a hack to remove the runes and fill in jewels, you don't have to hack to create a BoTD, just insane luck to find a zod.

[Sim.The.GoSu]

and more insane luck to find the vex and the item...

[skygoneblue]

Ahh, but even still, BotD is one of the most ridiculously overpowered rune-words out there. The damage output makes plowing through Hell seem like a cake walk (which is not something that I think should really be possible).

I really hope that Blizzard gets rid of these overpowered rune-words in 1.11...

I'm personally kinda sick of people making stupid builds with 5-6 huge rune-words and making them work. A singer barb? An assassin with only traps? A paladin that can cast 15k+ damage faster than most sorcs?

Please... :cheesy:

[Halciet]

I was under the impression that 1.10 was the final patch, kinda the "going out with a bang" edition.

-Hal

[squigipapa]

Ok, well back on topic here .. Mine is definitly not the best ebotd but anyway .. here's a screenshot of it ..

http://diablo.littlemonkey.ca/uploads/05-Breath-Of-The-Dying_-_Champion_Axe.jpg

ok, well that's it .. :)

[Lordjim]

Hal

I think there has to be one more patch so Curse Necros, Summing Druids, Magic Arrow amazons, Blade Fury Sims, Artic Blase Druids, Blaze Sorcers and Grim Ward Barbs OWN all!!!!!!

:lol: :clap: :lol:

Jim

[LordPomposity]

grim ward barbs...

I shouldn't have even dignified that with a response. Oh, well.

[LordPomposity]

Speaking of Iths, have you ever thought about how much worse they would have been if BotD had existed in 1.09? You'd need to re-zod an etherial, which would use up one socket, but...

With Zod and 5 Ohms: 665% ed, 60% ias
With 6 Ohms: 715% ed, 60% ias
With Zod and 5 40/15 jewels: 615% ed, 135% ias
With 6 40/15 jewels: 655% ed, 150% ias
With Zod and 5 shaels: 415% ed, 160% ias
With 6 shaels: 415% ed, 180% ias

I think I'm going to be sick. Could any of these hit the 3 or even 2 frame fury breakpoint with the right weapons (Dragoon's calculator 'only' goes up to 120% ias)?

/not condoning cheating in any way, just in horror.

Sorry, it won't happen. Besides the problem is not entirely the runewords but the imbalanced synergies/capabilities between different characters. Contrast the Barbarian, who has no useful PVP synergies besides concentrate (and lets be honest, this is not a primary PVP offensive skill) and has received nerf after nerf to WW, to the bone necro who has complementary synergies to skills that are all used in PVP who is able to do twice the average damage of most barbs, and in an unresistable unblockable fashion with far more range and mobility. This is a crime against RPG axioms such as greater risk = greater potential. Shame on Blizzard!

Their item design leaves a lot to be desired also. Even with the 100+ new items, we still have a very very small number of highly desirable properties and items that are relatively easy to obtain, relegating the "other" unique/set/runeword items to "Free Stuff Here" game candidates.

Example: Steel Shade. Can you imagine a more pathetic helm? This is an ELITE UNIQUE. +fire absorb, relatively useless. Replenish life +13, useless for a clvl 62 item. 6% mana leech, you really need this from a helm? Please. All that's left is defense. Oh boy.

There are a few examples of balanced items, like Beast vs Doom..

Doom makes enemies slower.. Beast makes you faster..
Doom has more listed damage.. Beast gives you +%dmg aura..
Doom has a nice deadly strike boost.. Beast has a nice open wounds boost..

These are the kind of tradeoffs we need to see more of.. more feasible options please! I like the runemaster idea.. let the player customize their item. More of this would be great.

[warlock_666]

Sorry accidentally double posted :scared:

[warlock_666]

i have zero eth botds, now what?

Same here, I think we go into the loser uber noob section of battle.net :(

Ah well, at least we will both be there :buddies:

[TheKbob]

I just made an eth BotD Archon staff, 357%, but still sexy cause I have a staff that owns :drool:

Druid using a staff, oh yeah.

1.10 I am satisfied with. I had an ith or two but never for longer than a day. I always got the crappy CBs or BBs, never the really big 915 (King of Iths, 915 Dmg CB w/60% Ias, best for WW barbs, or Ith Zerkers).

I had a Zephyr too. THAT was fun :lol: Without Zephyr, though, the main bow is still Wf. I'm amazed a unique can corner the market for so long as Wf really has.

Look at 1.09 Pally dueling, 3 weap choices:

Cruel, Fury, Ith

1.10:

BotD, Ethereal Elite Uniques, Uber Rares

Looks same to me.

I really did think the new runewords were a joke by blizz. The mods were just too good to be real. Chains of Honor was the only one I could believe. All the aura giving, +Teleport, +BOs, and more...

I'll stop rambling now, honest.

~Kbob

[Boxer1]

i have a 413 eth botd zerk on ladder and had a 409 eth botd cb until today... lost that sucker + a couple other valuables in a transfer accident >.<

[skilledlord]

the only one i made so far was a 352 eth zerker, broke me when i saw it. the zerker was superior too.

[spencert]

Made a eth botd zerker on ladder 8 days ago... after taking ages and wealth trading my real ber for a real cham and buying another real cham. Not to mention almost begging to trade for a 15ed eth zerker. Paid twice the normal price ... many thanks to blizzard for prematurely annoucing ladder reset.

I cover hands on the screen and slowly reveal number 3 ..... 7 ..... 8.... I could feel a lump in my throat... :hanky:

Still find my 278ed eth death cleaver to be a better weapon. :rant: However, there doesnt seem to be much between the 2.

This is why I dont really see the point in trading for a superior Ethreal Axe. They cost a hell of a lot more and will only be better than 400 if you get very lucky on the roll. Sure if you found the axe go for it but why pay tons more when any e botd beserker axe is godly?

If you're rich enough you could always re-roll it until it gets above 400.

[KaUgA]

God, I must be utterly unlucky (alliteration, cool I know what the word means yet I can't spell it...). The best rune I have ever found is a Gul rune, which I traded for my first and only SOJ. How in the world do you players find this stuff? I know my job and social life interfer's heavily with my D2 playing, but this is completely ridiculous. I mean seriousley, someone having 2 chars full of BoTd weapons? My best char, lvl 88 meteor sorc, has the following:
Eth Skullders with Ptopaz
Shako with Ptopaz
33% mf ammy or +1 sorc skills 10% FCR ammy
Magefist or 33% chance gaurds
33% boots or Unique scarab shells
Tals Belt
Nagel Ring 34% or 1 Soj
Nagel ring 33% or Carrion Wind
Occy or Gull
Rhyme or Lidless

All my gear has been found or traded for. It completly blows my mind how some people are Bill Gates rich in D2. I mean mutliple BoTd's on a single char? That is insane, I would bet Blizzard didn't mean for this to happen, but it has. As for the dupers, God, you are cheating at a computer game for chris sakes. A computer game, something you buy for fun. This doesn't even make sense to me in the least bit. I do not understand it and prob never will. For all the runs I do, you people sicken me. You are a disgrace to the D2 community and I hope you get your own. I wish Blizzard would take a ****-esque stand against you and ban your IP and Cd key forever.
Sorry for the rant, it just makes me sick

[spencert]

If you're rich enough you could always re-roll it until it gets above 400.
Those were real runes... wont disappear during Rust Storm. Took me one whole ladder season + lots of trading to be able to properly equip a Barb and Nec. Dupe runes are pretty scarce and still pretty expensive in my parts ... reroll is only an option for you guys in East and West where runes are relatively cheap.

[slipVaYnE]

Kauga- This may be just me, but i was always under the impression that a perfect nagelring was only 30%. Maybe you had a typo or two. If i am wrong, please correct me, because i would feel pretty bad for tryin to correct if you were right. Anyway, im gonna look that up.





adam

[KaUgA]

You're probably right, I was typing the list out of memory. Maybe the rings are something like 23%, regardless though, the point of my rant remains the same. I was just getting a little frustration off of my back.

[LordDrift]

woot

Traded 414%ED Zerker Axe + a Few RUnes and got myself a 415%

[biko]

I dont have any botd at the moment but I have had these:

Ebotd zerker 398/13
Ebotd cb 400/14
Ebotd cb 399/13

Those are the best I've ever had.
