Yes, itemization in LS is amazing. Why? Because items with good stats rarely drop. The following "User Blog" is for me to remember my LS exploits and to remember how difficult it is to get good stuff in this game ^_^

Using Maps and Exploring for Maps: A cautionary tale

This morning I decided to finish off my Lvl 70 fighter's MQ and work on his next MQ. Of course I'm solo, so this was all done in slow motion B)

Okay, so I failed his MQ... Middle (correct!)... 50/50 shot now and... First key! (BOOM, go back to start.)



Here we go again! Oh well, NP. Let's use this opportunity to try out some maps. Let's use bad ones so I can clear them from my inventory :D

Maps are awesome. This is a tier I map with pretty much no bonuses, but it's already dishing out GG drops at level 2!



This is going to be a sweet 5-minute glyph someday :P

Alright, nothing else worth mentioning dropped from this map, or its duplicate. After the 3rd map, I reached level 15. Time for cata!



But check this out from pinch of evil!! Perfect ee, pretty sweet huh!?

Moving along. Lots of random 5, 6, and even a 7-prop drop... and then there was this gem.



Definitely one of the best Tier Is I've seen that isn't an unspawn :thumbsup:
Anyway, it'll make a lovely glyph as soon as I become skilled enough to do angelic successfully ^_^

Killing EPs solo down 2 trapdoors isn't that fun, but once I finish exploring I'm gonna get a sweet map, so it's gonna be so worth it!!!
