The Spoils of Our D2 Toils - The New Item Find Thread (March 2011) o

[RobbyD]

It was suggested that the timing, story, and stats of this item merited a new IFT, and Thyiad agreed, so here we go:

I ran 1.09 Countess for the Vex rune drop that I discovered she is capable of. I made a character dedicated to the cause, GIEB_VEX. After nearly 2 years of trying, Countess finally dropped that Vex. That Vex was precious to me, my most coveted drop. But I knew it would do me more good in 1.10s than 1.09. With that Vex, and a Gul and 4 Mals, all dropped by 1.09 Countess in the course of completing this quest, and some normal gems, I made an Ohm Rune. With that Ohm rune, along with an additional Mal and Ist procured in my 1.09 Countess Vex quest, I made a 1.10s Runeword in a War Scepter with +2 Holy Shield staffmod, also procured in 1.09:

The perfect ED just adds style.

No Hellforge rushed runes were used in creating this item.

It's just occurred to me that if I move the posts from the old IFT into here they'll show up BEFORE your post Robby. So I won't.

Grats on the CtA.

Congratulations!
I know that a +15 Beta CTA is the most useful item you will ever find or make. (It is much less aggravating, though, if the battle command has a longer duration than the battle orders. I know from also being a temporary wielder of the CTA that travelled from Ray Patean -> Pyrohemia (me) -> Maareek -> NagisaFurukawa -> ???)

No Hellforge rushed runes were used in creating this item.

This makes me feel a little embarrassed that I combined my 1.07 Vex and Gul and 1.10a Gul with a hell forge rushed Ist + Mal.

very nice, good job
I ofc did not expected anything else that +15 or +14 according to SPF statistic
so congrats to that and enjoy 1.13c patch

Thanks.

My other CtA (posted in the last IFT) rolled +12 BO and crap for all the other ranges (almost the bottom of the ED range), and my 1.10a CtA rolled +9 BO, so the 'SPF statistic' is bunk.

Running council with my Holy Freeze Zealot netted me Jah, Sur (sshots will eventually end up in my TP) and this:

Wolfhowl
Fury Visor
Defense: 342
Durability: 17 of 35
(Barbarian Only)
Required Strength: 129
Required Level: 79
Item Version: 1.10+ Expansion
Item Level: 85
Fingerprint: 0x366af8b4
+12 to Strength

+127% Enhanced Defense
+6 to Werewolf
+6 to Lycanthropy
+6 to Feral Rage
+3 to Warcry Skills (Barbarian Only)
Level 15 Summon Dire Wolf (9/18 Charges)

Stats rolls are so and so, but skill rolls are perfect. That's always nice.
A perfect skills roll is 1:128. A perfect stats/skills roll is 1:65536 (so not happening).

Found this with my current character in Skunkbelly's UTC. Useless for him (a Mauler), but the next caster I receive is going to be very happy (though they'll have to wait until Act 5 to use it).

So much suffering...

No items, but I wanted to get in some grovelling at RobbyD's perfect CTA early in the thread
