Alright. I've run Andariel for what seems like forever (even tho it's only been 2 days). So I'm going to do another raffle in order to see when pieces of my "dream" gear will drop. It will be a simple raffle for I will only be running Count (/P1) and Andariel (/P8). I've already completed over 120 runs. It seems like I was extremely lucky the first 50. I've done okay since then, but not nearly as well. (I have found a Raven Frost on run #79, so that's off my list now, Gheed's [25%] on #97, as well as War Travs [48%] on # 117)

My current MF% is 225 w/ all MF gear equipped (would have been more, but I sold Shako... Kinda regret that decision). I will wear regular gear and swap out for my MF gear upon kill of the Countess and Andariel only.

So, here is the list of items that I'm ISO w/ the corresponding drop rate of bugged Andariel w/ /P8 and 225% MF:
  • The Scalper (1:286)
  • Gore Rider (1:637)
  • Highlord's Wrath (1:823)
  • Arreat's Face*non-eth* (1:1174)

^Bugged Andy ratios^
^The other drop % for the Countess and other elites were just too depressing to post^


I will be starting over so next run will be run #1. I will not be progressing into Act 2 until I find each one of these items!! Since I'm a Throw Barb, I must walk. I plan on skipping all mobs unless I encounter a unique or elite monster. To be fair, I will inform you all that my Tower location is across the map from the WP, so I come across at least 2-4 elite monsters each run within the Black Marsh. I always kill them. I have great Catacomb map rolls so I only encounter 2-3 mobs w/ an elite in order to reach Catacombs lvl 4.

So the only possible drop locations are:
  • Black Marsh
  • The Forgotten Tower levels 1-5
  • Catacombs level 2-4


Name the item, drop location, and it's corresponding run #. I am not doing monster specific. So if you say Arreat's Face, Catacombs lvl 4 #1200, then you call for any monster (Andy included), chest or corpse to drop that particular item on that particular run. The first time that a particular item drops is the only time it is counted. Redrops are not counted and will not be rewarded.
Just FYI.

20FG will be awarded per correct item drop (or closest to the actual run #)

*I will be using the Price is Right rule if there is a discrepancy concerning two people being the same run # distance from the actual drop #. For example, one person guesses #2 and another guesses #6, but the item dropped on #4, then the person to guess #2 would win the 20FG.*

I only do runs @ work when I don't have anything to do. So I count myself. I know there are run counters and mods that show your runs, but I honestly I have no idea how to use any mods. I'm not very tech savy. I tried using PlugY last year and failed miserably. That's why I run 1.14 w/out it. It's just easier for me to play vanilla w/out any mods. I'm old school so I usually count every 10 and make notes on when good stuff drops so I can write it in a post.

I've been reeaally bored at work lately so been running a lot...


Btw, you can list every item w/ your prediction on when it will drop. You don't just have to pick only one item to guess. But your call bro
I plan on doing around 2000 runs or until I finish my list (whichever comes first). I feel like I should be able to obtain every item on the list w/ that amount. If not, then I will give up on running Andy lol

You have no idea how lucky I have been w/ my crafts this WT. I have always made crafts w/ every character I do, but they have always been sooooo shitty. But Abroham Lincoln must have Midas' touch cause everything he touches turns to gold! I haven't posted it yet, but I did a group crafting of Blood Rings and 1 of them is pretty decent.. like really decent... like slightly above average.
