You could theorically make a rare with 6/6 perrect rolls, but the item be completely unusable.

Perfect rolls don’t make an item a trophy.

What makes an item a trophy is high or near perfect rolls with the best affix combinations.

I guess there is an inherent difference in classification here.

If you want to think an item with near perfect stats with 3/4 affix rolls working well together and 1/4 affixes being a usable affix, but not best affix, makes a trophy item, then you are allowed to have that opinion.

I don’t hold the same standard as you, and that’s ok. I’m all for having a debate. However, I have tried to ask, why you guys think Fire Res > more Rep. the only thing I get is because you are a fucking idiot or these boots are awesome.

There has been no analytical discissuon into why you believe thee would be better. Only emotional retorts to try to bash someone into submission.

Please change my mind as to why these are better than:
30frw
10fhr
15 rep
20 life
40 mana boots

For ES sorc. And if you can make a logical argument as to why, then I’ll gladly recogonze that these should be in the trophy room. But I have yet to see any argument that accomplished that.

I’m am by no means the encyclopedia for sorc builds, however, I do have an above average base line. And I am always more than willing to learn from someone who knows better than
Me.

But if your arguments are based in emotion, than an analytical debate is never going to go anywhere.


the fact that you lack fire res

keke but following your theorycrafting, those fpk boots are also no trophy
you'd want 30-10-15-20-40fire and 30-10-15-20-40light


and try to be straight, u contradict yourself

i don't agree tho, i think a perfect item that has almost no use can still be a trophy... just by rarity and the beauty of it.

If I contradicted myself, then I wasn’t clear

I never had the intention of making the statement about the boots above.

I think you are referring to when I was talking about removing an affix and changing it for another.

I was trying to say: remove fire and replace with rep to give:
30/10/20/15/40

Or replace mana with lite to give: 30/10/20/10/40/40

I’m not seeing how mathetmically the Fire Res is better than rep given how long SvS duels are typically.

I mean following your logic, the fpk boots you mentioned are no trophy either, cuz u’d want 2x 15lrep single res instead

They are 08 boots.

''Brand'' is an invalid name suffix on boots. The improbable nigh maximum stats on Wraith Brand were already suspicious when they surfaced on Battle.net back in the day - but the name just kills them.

The only ''Brand'' occurring on legitimately generated rare/crafted boots stems from the character name which Anya magically inscribed onto the former thus granting the player eternal boasting rights.

Are you retarded?

That’s not an indirect form of me calling you stupid, it is a legitimate inquiry

The boots exist on battle.net, you know they exist, so what the fuck are you trying to argue about?

Wraith Brand boots exist on Battle.net, but they did not originally spawn there. ''Brand'' has never been able to spawn on boots.
Armageddon Slippers Amulet is another example. Neither ''Armageddon'' nor ''Slippers'' are available to amulet; the game cannot even pick ''Armageddon'' and ''Slippers'' to co-exist on a rare/crafted item.

These items (along with others in the same category) were not legitimately generated by the game; they were forged by someone with creativity beyond the original game design.
