Greetings. I just found a Vex rune in SP. It dropped from a normal twig chest (not locked) in Act 5 on players 8 settings. My hammerdin is level 91 at the moment, and leveling up is nothing short of painful. This rune is just the morphine I needed... And so I ask you, Where did you find your best rune (highest level rune)? What level was your character, and what player settings were you on? Cool, now all I need is Pul, and I got a Hoto. That would be sweet... later. :thumbsup:

Best rune I've found on SP is Ist rune from Pindle.

Setting were on /p 1 and it was by my lvl 90 meteorb sorc when she was level 89 I think.

Ahaha, mine was Gul from hell Hellforge, but if Hellforge drops aren't counted, then Mal from The Countess, but if special drops are not counted, then Pul from a random fallen in Act 1 Hell.

I horked a Lo in Frigid highlands once (from a normal demon-teleport-annoying-turd, IIRC). /players1.

Those are sweet man. Of course Hellforge counts... As does the Countess.

Any idea where I can find a Pul rune? :wink3:

/players 1 Pit Level 1 standard Devilkin yielded me a Cham. I would've been about level 84 at the time. Still can't believe it :shocked:

My highest ever is um

Since restarting I've gotten one um and one pul from hellforge. When I played before I found several ums.

3 or 4 from hellforge
1 from hell Meph
1 from hell Countess
1 from NM Ancients way
possibly 1 or 2 more that I've forgotten about

If I'm not mistaken, hell Countess is the best place for any rune ist and lower making her the best place to look for a pul. :smiley:

Highest rune is a Lo - /P 8 Baal runs, my Bliz sorc was lvl97 at the time

My meteorb found a Gul rune from the Hellforge. Players 1. That same meteorb later found 3 Ists from Countess runs, 2 from Countess herself and 1 from a fallen on level 3 on the way to the countess. All players 1. 2 Mals, also from the Countess, by that same meteorb. Also a Mal back in 1.09, from the Bloody Foothills in Nightmare, players 8, by a Paladin.

I found both an Ohm rune running hell cows back in 1.09, and I've gotten two Gul's off the hellforge.

My best is a LO while running p8 in the fryer jungle with my lvl 90 styrfzon.

The best was a Jah rune from one of Pindle's minions. :cloud9: Someday, I'm going to have to do something with it.

My best is a Lo from a basket in Hell Durance Level 2, players 2 I believe (was mp'ing with a buddy). Same character found an Ohm 48 hours earlier on the way to the countess...level 4 in the tower I believe, on players 1. Those were both in 1.10.
In 1.11 I've received a gul from the Hell Hellforge and an Ist from the countess, as well as one from the Hell HF, along with several Mals and Ums from the countess (5500 countess runs in 3 months yields a lot of decent runes).

28-01-2006, 04:02
Lo, off a Durance 3 chest, back when I still ran meph.

AlterEgo
28-01-2006, 04:04
Ah yes, the every few months, "where did you find your highest rune? thread. :rolleyes:

As many know, mine is Gul, a few times - Countess (1.09), 1.10 Hell HF, and some boss in 1.10 Hell Ancient's Way.

28-01-2006, 04:35
A Lo rune off of a Durance 3 chest.
/players 1 with my (currently) level 91 blizzard/fireball sorc, who should have been anywhere from level 88 to level 90 when it dropped.

In the cold dark morning
Of the early dawn
The birds are yawning
A day is born
In the dank old basement
of a family house
Before a screen of clement
The bright rays rouse.
What was that? Did you see it?
A world in harmony
That all of creation fit
The gates I saw were pearly
And the justice I knew was God
Having tasted paradise
I'd trade it all for Zod

My 5 best runes have dropped from:

Pits (p8)
Hell Meph (p3? can't remember)
Shenk's minion (propably p8)
Ghost in Arcane (p5)
Gloam in Plains of Despair (p8)



What level was your character, and what player settings were you on?

I can't remember the lvl of chars in all those drops, and it doesn't matter either, because clvl has no effect on drops :smiley:

kresida
28-01-2006, 08:31
My best found is a Sur, came from a basket in Durance 2 on players 3, my sorceress was probably around lvl88-90 at the time.. Also found a Vex in the Pits with my lvl92 hammerdin, on /p8.

Lord_Vega
28-01-2006, 09:07
My best ever self found rune was a SUR, way back in 1.09.

I believe it was from hell cows on p8, while playing with my javazon.
What did I do with it? Socket it in my WF for the blind target of course, what else? :shocked: :rolleyes:

Rizzo
28-01-2006, 09:15

Ber from one of Baal's minion waves..no idea which one, as I do not check for goodies till they are all gone...

Jah from a jar in the Ancient's Way.

Both of these while doing the odd MF wander through..

John

P. S. Yes, they are both in what you think they are in now...*chuckles*

28-01-2006, 18:00
Well, Ort from quest 2 in act V normal :grin: I just re-started the game because I installed 1.11

But if I count my my 1.09 stuff, I have some um and I think I had a pul (or gul? I can't remember)

Maybe FB (if he wasn't banned) could brag on here :rolleyes:

Lo from one of those Icy tunnels in Act 5 at p8.

28-01-2006, 19:26
1.10
vex (in a nice HotO)
ohm (in a so-so CtA)
cham (no longer in my posession)

all from hell cows. got all three in under 500 runs. 2000+ runs later and havent seen anything higher than Ist. looking at the odds i figure 10000 more runs and i might see another rune about gul. im not including HF cuz i am with the dark-side and thats not a single drop (i have ~jah from my rushes).

28-01-2006, 19:57
Vex, from a chest in Upper Kurast.

Jesterrm
28-01-2006, 21:18
Best was recently, a Ber from a Lower Kurast "superchest", on p3 if I remember rightly.

Before that was a Mal and Ist, both lost in a bad computer crash a couple of months ago.

Tasdaz
28-01-2006, 21:26
An ohm in 1.10 running Pindle with my Meteorb Sorc (can't remember her level) on P8.

shleefin
28-01-2006, 23:13
best is ist from hell HF

otherwise it was a MAL at /p8 with my IK barb. dropped by a devilkin in tower cellar lvl3 on my way to countess (countess herself dropped a couple eld's, what a shock..)

jjscud
29-01-2006, 00:56

Could the realm you play in have something to do with that? :grin:

29-01-2006, 05:46
You got a gul from the WSK level 2 in our mp'ing days on bnet too! I remember that day.
indeed yes. and i found far more mid level runes in the few months that i played on us east than i have ever found in twice the time in sp, by a very wide margin... some days on bnet it felt like the twilight rune zone.
--
by the way edmond dantes! its been ages.. hope you are doing ok. trubbanot popped in to say hello in a thread i made recently too. i say the same to you as i said to her. i have all the equipment from those days, including the gul still sitting on mules etc. i have logged in every once in a while to perm them but i havent played since you said you were going back to sp that day.
if you are still playing, or are in touch with any from spf who are and want any/all of the items let me know. btw that delerium is still there and it belongs to you really.. dune

Mine was a Lo from Thresh Socket.
Traded it for some TC87s (about 5, iirc) and never thought the day I'll regret doing so would come...but, alas, it did. Specially now that I so badly want a Ber to make a CoH. Oh well.

Bah, CoH... :rolleyes: :tongue:

Lemming has two of them (archon and kraken shell IIRC) so he should be able to loan you one. He didn't have to work for them either, so don't feel bad about asking. :grin:

Hello, poop! :smiley:
Life's well, indeed.
Just doing a lot of reading so I wasn't able to post here that much.
But I always check the place.

Lemming always get the good stuff... some charm he has. :wink:
I really want to own one though, and not just borrow it.
A bit of bragging rights won't hurt. :wink2:

Oh, and do check my post in your thread some place else. Might get me closer to my current goal if you agree and find a way around it.

Pul (from Countress)

Don't have much HRs...

got my Ber from one of Achmelīs minions (not Achmael himself) during a Baal run. CoH is sweet :rolleyes:

29-01-2006, 18:59
Ber! ooooo :)

Funny thing is, I never found a Gul. I never found an Ist. However, I skipped over those, and found two Vex's! One was back in in 2003, and I believe it was somewhere in the the river of flame (t'was probably the hellforge--been so long I'm not sure). The other one was from a random unique in--get this--the MAGGOT LAIR!!! I've used one of them in a Heart of the Oak. The other one is patiently waiting for me to make up my mind.

For me I found a Fal rune from some normal monster doing bloody runs in nm.

Granted my Barb is only lvl 80 (BTW my first character that made it to Hell on its own :smiley: ) and in A2 Hell but I have done several (5+) pit runs and Hell Countess runs, but she seems to always drop really low ones (so far only ones over Thul was 1 Amn and 1 Hel), it seems see always has dropped an Eld rune, go figure.

Edit: reread the post above me and realized that I have found 3 Hel (1 from countess), 1 Fal but none of the ones inbetween (sp?) so no Io, Ko, or Lum Go figure

30-01-2006, 11:02
I only have 1.11 since a month, so Lum, from a random Friggin Tele-Imp, Act 5 Frozen Tundra.

Best 1.09:
Jah from something (huge packs of frozen Horror, Frenzytaurs and Witches) in the Ancient's Way

Another Jah from a Bosspack in the Wolrdstone Keep level 3. (One and a half years later.

I have never seen a Cham or Zod (except on some of the items people post here :grin: )

asdfgah
30-01-2006, 11:17
Ist from the countess I guess... I should have a gul rune from hellforge but I can't actually remember getting one =/

LowLander
30-01-2006, 11:54
Ist, from Hellforge with my Fishy. Waiting for a nice helm to make Delirium in.
Next best is Um, probably also Hellforge. Wasted in a shaftstop on a 1.09 druid.

Rest=below.

My highest rune is a Mal, from Hellforge. Or maybe I have a Gul from the beta? I Donīt remember.

Highest outside Hellforge is a Pul from some area in act 2 Hell. From a regular chest, IIRC.


The BEST runes are (for most of my characters) any of the handful of Shaels they find. Once or twice Iīve found one in act 5 Normal. Finding one that early is excellent. :thumbsup:

Other notable finds of 'really good rune for that character, at that stage' are

* a Lem from NM Hellforge with my Swordmistress amazon. It was later used to make her a Passion Champion Sword near the and of Hell act 2.

* The Pul rune that my S/U Worshipper tourney barb got from Hell Hellforge. He used it to upgrade his Fleshrender, and that made him a lot more powerful for the endgame.

Ber from Battlemaid Sarina and her gang. P8 WW IK Barb. Looking for that Jah (if i'd start playing again).

Mal from hell HF. P1 HF Paladin iirc. Some shield RW.

Um not sure where. Cubed to upgrade some rare axe that i've never used :p

Lots of <Pul
