Weapons: Search for weapons only
Armour: Search for armours only
Charm: Search for charms only
Level Range: Search for items within the maximum and minimum level range given
Min Magic Level: Search for items with the magical item level given or higher
Cost Range: Search for items within the maximum and minimum price range given
3 big boxes below: Search for special modifications the item shall have
3 smaller boxes next to them: Minimal number of the modification the item shall have ( 0 = modification not necessary )
Only items i can use: Search for item you can wear at this point (depends on your level and character class)
Example
Weapon, Level Range 10-15, Min Magic Level Arcane, Cost Range 20-30, Dexterity 30. Search for all weapons within the level range 10-15, that have at least the magical quality arcane, cost betwen 20 and 30fg and have at least 30 points dexterity.
Note: If there is only 1 variable outside this parameters, the item will not be shown in the result list. So you should search differentiated in order not to miss any item you might want to have.
Search Flood If you search to often within a short time range, you get this message. Leave the market place and wait a few seconds, then you can go on.
This is a protection against item snipers who might refresh there search many times in order to steal items on the market place from others.
In which order are the results listed?The items are ordered by price from low to high, if there are too many results, you will just see the cheaper ones, so make sure you have given enough search characteristics..
You will see a list of items that match your search characteristics, you can see the price right of the item. To see all information, hold your mouse button on the item you like.
Why are there items in different colours?Black items can be equipped by your character, red ones can not.
(because your character level is too low or your character class in general can not equip this kind of item)Follow these steps if you want to buy an item:
- Go to the market place and search for an item of your choice as explained above
- Drag and drop it with your left mouse button to the big box in the left corner
- Right of this box enter your gold password and click the
- Buy item button next to it
- You will now have the item in your inventory and the fg is automatically taken
- Note: You can NOT retract this once you have bought the item, also if you just clicked by accident!
- Go to the market place, click the selling items button and open your inventory
- Drag and drop the item you want to sell in the big box on the left, you used for buying items already
- Enter your gold password in the box next to it
- Define the price you want to have for the item by setting it in numbers in the little box beside
- Click the sell item button
- You will now see a number in next to the box Seller Fee and a new button called Confirm fee and sell appears.
- This number is a fee of 5% of the price you entered and will be automatically sent to the forum bank every time you sell an item
- In case your price is 20fg or higher, this fee will be paid directly to the forum bank.
- Note:This fee will not be paid back, e.g. because you did not sell the item, decide not to sell it any more or the ladder is resetted.
- Refresh the selling list by e.g. leave the market place and enter it again.
- On this list are all items you have for sell.
Note:
- There is a maximum of 10 items each character to be for sale
- Items that have not been sold after a period of time ( 7 days?), will automatically return to your inventory.
- You have to put them on the market again and pay the fee.
- You will have to wait 24h to remove an item from the market place
- You can not raise the selling price after you have put an item on the market
- You can only remove it again later on and put in on the market again for the new price, but remember the fee
- You can reduce the price of items on the market place after 3 hours: Drag and drop the item in the big box and change the price, afterwards click the editbutton
- Items you do not need any more at all can be completely deleted by drag and drop them into the trash icon. The item is now permanently deleted.
- The item quality has to be magical at least to put it on the market place. Normal items can not be sold there.
- If you do not now if or what an item is worth, you may have a look on the market place for similar items or feel free to ask our price check experts
for their opinion in this thread: - Pricecheck-Thread
- Remember that these guys are doing this hard work for free and spend their spare time for this, so be friendly and patient
What is muling?Muling is the process of storing items on chars due to a lack of space in order to use them later on or to sell them maybe How to mule?
It is NOT designed as a feature of the game and because of this just possible in a quite risky way:- Put the item on the market place and set a price
- A friend or your mule char now searches for this item and buys it from the market place
Note: In this period, ANY other player may buy your item and keep it and you have to pay the seller fee like in every common item sale
Hint: Keep 2 browser windows open, your normal one and a backup in the login screen with entered data or ask a friend to be ready
for the case you get connection problems.
No one will take care if your internet connection troubles.
If the item is worthy, set a high price although you have to pay a higher item fee.
It is more secure to pay 50fg fee if the item is like 1000fg worth, instead of loosing a nice item you put on the market for 1fg
Use unequal price numbers to find your item easier and keep of item snipers at least a bit.
Make sure you know/note down the main characteristics of your item to be able to search for it in a more directed way
6. Common abbreviations:BIN (buy it now): The owner of the item will sell it for this price at once.
Similar to FT (fast trade) in the diablo2 section, but here this term is used in another way
FT (for trade): The seller is offering an item for sale
C/O (current offer): The currently leading offer on an item
iso (in search of): The thread opener is in search of this specific item
diso (desperate in search of): The thread opener is desperate in search of this specific item
Pc (price check): Rating of the price of an item by an expert person
imo = in my opinion
np = no problem
nt = no thanks
atm = at the moment
ty = thank you
acc = account
pw = password
mp = market place
mq = master quest
mq charm / mq weapon = a very nice item which will bring you to the master quest
pvp = player vs player
ee = enhanced effect
int = intelligence
vit = vitality
dex = dexterity
str = strength
regen = regenerating
dual regen = life + mana regenerating on the same item
7. Transmutation Box What about this box
This magic box is similar to the horadric cube in diablo2 and works in a matchable way:Put 2 items of the same kind in the box and hit the transmute button. Cross your fingers now.
The magic quality does not necessarily have to be the same.
The modifications of the 2 items will now be randomly exchanged and you get 1 new item with new modifications.
The kind of the item stays the same, the magical quality depends on the ingredients.
Example: You insert 2 diamond swords with the magical quality magical and rare.
You now get 1 diamond sowrd out of this with new modifications, it's magical quality varies between magical and rare.
There is also a very slight chance even to upgrade the quality to the next level, mystical
Magic Luck has a positive effect on this chance to upgrade the quality, but i will not go into the details in this guide.
8. Well of EvilIn this well there is a very old and strong monster resting till eternity until some idiot ( you
) throws a normal item that you have found some time before
into it and wakes it up. So well, how would you react when sleeping for a while and get wake up then suddenly? Right, you do quite the same as the monster, attack the intruder and beat the hell out of him. So beware, it may be a lot stronger then you. If you beat this monster, you will receive a nice bunch of experience and the normal item you have thrown in suddenly has a magical+ quality. This is a nice way of getting nice and expensive items, but remember you have to beat the monster, otherwise you receive nothing but death (if you do not run away) and the item is lost. And the monsters will get a lot stronger while you level higher and you need better gear to be competitive.
Hint: There are 2 level ranges existing, in which fighting these well monsters is very effective.
( if you have high end gear you won't care, but i guess you will also not have the need to read this guide then because you know these basics already)
The first is level 1(- about 10)
Well monsters are quite low and weak here, like you are. But you have the advantage to buy good gear, e.g. of tier III which can originally only be found at level 10 upwards. But there is the market place or you have found such an item before already. Killing them will no be quite easy, but there is a disadvantage I will come to in a moment.
The second is level 70 ( from 60+ upwords)
Well monsters are stronger then you are, not unlikely a lot. But all monsters are capped at level 70. This means, the further you come across this level,
the smaller the possible distance between your level and that of the well monster gets. At level 70 you have even the same level.
During the levels between you will most likely notice, that you can not beat the monsters in most cases. So there is no sense in throwing nice normal items that
may get something very worthy in the well, because you will not beat the monster and loose them. So be clever and keep these items. The key term is extra item slot gear. Especially in the higher levels, you can get these items quite cheap, so use this feature to enlarge your storing capacities.
If you notice you also have huge problems fighting the normal monsters and have no financial means or put some stat points wrong, you should not grind to much.
Reroll your character to level 1 and give it a new start. You will keep all your items and may now put the items you found into the well, you may get something
you can use on your next climb or sell it for fg to have new financial means.
But watch out: Your extra item slot gear only works when equipped. On level 1, your ordinary stuff will most likely not work any more, because its prerequisites were at a high level. This is the same with your basic gear, it will return to your inventory as well. So you need low level extra item slot gear, which is more expensive. You should rather gain experience to level 5, it makes the items much more cheaper and maybe mule all magical high level items to another character to save the spaces before you reroll. If you have more than the 8 items,don't worry. You do not loose your gear. But you are not able to pick up any new.
Example: You have 15 items in your inventory after the reroll, but can only wear 8 of them. If you now put something in the well and it turns out to be very nice,
you can not pick it up. You would have to throw away all the items until you have 7 left until you can pick this item up. This can be very frustrating, so remember this.
9. Shrine of Mu'rakarThis shrine is a possibility to gain life and mana outside combats, it is a kind of life and mana potion.
Click the symbol and drag and drop a magical+ item inside. You will now gain a number of life and mana added to your pool.
If the item quality is higher, you gain more, but before you throw something inside, you should think about if it may be worthy
and better used for muting or for putting it on the market place.
10. Guild points und Master quest What is a guild point?
Guild points represent the activity in ladder slasher of different guilds and its players here on the forums and determine the position in the d2jsp guild list. More guild points represent prestige, an active guild and a strong company.
What happens if i leave a guild?
The guild points will stay in the guild and you will not see them in your personal profile any more.
How to get guild points?
By attempting the masterquest, this is possible from level 71 onwards (any time after you have reached level 71)
How many guild points do i receive for a passed master quest?
- One of the 4 basic characters -> Samurai - 2 guild points if pass
- Samurai to Paladin - 5 guild points if pass
- Paladin to Monk - 6 guild points if pass
- Monk to Ninja - 7 guild points if pass
- Ninja to Warlock - 8 guild points if pass
- Warlock to Headhunter - 9 guild points if pass
- Headhunter to Alchemist - 10 guild points if pass
- Alchemist to Reset Ladder - 100 guild points if pass
- If you do not pass, you get 1 guild point at least and 1 more for every unlocked character class later on
- Numbers are doubled in hardcore
What happens after the masterquest?
The character is rerolled to level 1 and if you pass, the next secret character is unlocked. If you fail, you will just be rerolled to level 1. In both cases you keep all your items and get the guild points as written above.
What is the master quest like?
You will have to find out yourself and make your own experiences. But always remember: You do NOT need any gear or an high end mouse, this
quest all depends on your faith and a tiny bit of luck.
When is the ladder reset?
If a player manages to unlock all classes and passes the masterquest with the last one. All characters are rerolled to level 1. But you keep all items.
A reset on softcore does not affect hardcore and the other way round.
11. Accessory charm
How does it work?
You equip it by drag and drop the charm in the accessory charm slot in your inventory.
So you can use 2 charms at the same time, but the do not work in the same way:
The acc. charm does not give any stat points and and its effectiveness is reduced by 50%
You may use this charm to attack, but it is not very effective.
You should rather use it to heal yourself:
Choose the charm by clicking on its image or hit the hotkey "a" (red box around it when used)
Now click on your name and you will heal yourself.
It does not work?
Remember, you can only use this charm during a combat and it costs mana like every charm, so no mana = no heal.
Can i use it also as a main charm?
Yes you can, and it is even more effective here.
The main charm works with 100% and has all the advantages shown, of course.
These healing charms exist:- Wild heal: Small minimum heal, high maximum heal. huge difference
- Heal: higher minimum heal, not so high maximum heal. medium difference
- Focused Heal: higher minimum heal, medium maximum heal. small difference
- Features will be more useful when the player vs player mode is implemented
- Also monsters may use these charms and heal themselves
- Hint: As a melee char you may fight against level 1 monsters and use this heal charm until your mana is empty. This speeds up your life regenerating periods by far
- Casters do most likely not have any use for these charms, as they run out of mana before life usually
