Odd weapon from Imbue

[MalVeauX]

Hey guys

I found a low req Maiden Jav with +3 (white) skills and used it on Imbue in normal. The Jav changed to have +4 skills instead suddenly. Did I just get a stacked mod or something that gave me the bonus +1? Seems odd to me because I didn't think it was possible to get +4 on a single skill branch listed on an item like this. Maybe it's possible to get higher then with stacked mods?

Here's the jav:

Would appreciate any info on if this is not supposed to happen, or if this is normal for mod stacking.

Cheers,

Dont know about the +jav skills. But imbuing things rerolls all the previous stats, so it was just luck that you got +4 on it. Didnt have anything to do with the previous +3. Just thought i would share.

The whatevermods on the javelin ranges from +(1-3) javelinskills, you just rolled an extra javelin skill on it, harpoonists prefix. Thats the way it could be.

Can go up to +6. "Natural" staffmods that occur on white items like +3 Javelin skills are additive with magical skills; IIRC item manipulation rerolls both.

Any combination of +natural/+magic could have been the case. So 1/3, 2/2, or 3/1.

Ahh ok, good to know then. Thanks!

Rares cannot get more than +2 to skilltrees from automods and the +skilltab bonus from affixes cannot be higher than +2 as well, so rare javelins/bows/spears can have up to +4 while it's up to +6 for magical ones.

Nice Jav's!!!!

You got a pretty descent roll on those.

They are definately keepers.

If you are making a Poison Javazon- those would be almost godly.

+4 to skills and knockback. Like my Grandma used to say. . .
