Countess Runs

[Matrixnetuk]

Hi Guys,

I have been running countess NM for a while now and have noticed sometimes after running through 5 floors of fun she keeps her runes grrrrrrrrrr

Am I doing something wrong?

Yes, you are ignoring the semantic difference between "can drop" and "does drop".

There is only ONE monster in the game where "can drop" and "does drop" are the same, and that's diablo clone. For all other monsters, the "can drop" is usually much better than the "does drop" in almost all cases.

Actually not the only one. Duriel always drops a scroll of town portal. I can't think of more such monsters right now though.

is the bug fixed where, countess drop turns into a bishiboss drop if you go explore to two extra rooms filled with gold, I know it used to be like this in .09... best is to just kill countess straight away and then go pick up the gold.

thanks guys

Ive run countess so often now always getting runes... it came as a shock to me in NM that she didnt ..so yup I was getting complacent

Mind you on the way down to her ive scored some really nice equipment
Silks of the victor my fav to date and an ethereal duriel shell (pit or countess)

still loving this game and only playing with gear i have found!

cheers

Mephisto always drops a green breastplate.

Mephisto always drops a green breastplate.
He probably robs them from random monsters in act 2

first time you kill andy, she always drops a normal gem + 2 chipped.

If we take first time kills into account, then Hephasto (hammer) and Meph (soulstone) can be added as well.

WRONG! I killed Duriel one time to comlete a normal quest on my own and he dropped absolutely NOTHING! No cash, no town portal, NOTHING! Now that was a great drop!

Your pickit picked everything up before you could see it. :lol: (j/k)


I know the Cow King always drops a stamina potion (or is it thawing? :scratch: ;haven't killed him in a long time).

[ripsky4501]

Eschuta's isn't bad...Duriel runs everybody!!! :lol:

I don't think I've ever killed the Cow King...

Yeah. Normal difficulty, a couple hours into 1.10 Season 2. Completely un-twinked, and Duriel dropped a Tarnhelm and Deathspade for my Avenger. Those were worth a lot to me at the time...

[Diabolico x64]

I know Duriel in nm or hell, for dropping various unique rings, like dwarf stars and ravens, and for dropping a homonculus one time.
