Update , mostly from NM Meph/Chaos runs (baal sucked bc sometimes 5th wave would spawn cold immune). I'm currently in A1 Hell struggling badly. I've just went back to NM and continued farming hoping to find a decent merc weapon. Nothing yet though.




My one "trophy" find so far (Not using it bc belt I have gives life + rep life + fhr + I don't need DR if I don't get hit ;) )




My hat is also pretty nice (peasant crown)
Gloves are magefists
Rings are x2 rare rings with MF
Boots are rares with MF
Shield is block % with res
Amulet is rare with stats and res, I have a plain +1 sorc amulet in stash
Armor is darkglow :drool:
Most charms have +life, exception is the bottom right football is str/fire resis

Here are some sets I've completed already:



















Does anyone have any suggestions on when crafting is beneficial? I'd really love to try to craft a better amulet soon, if possible.

Edit: For those curious, I'll mostly be doing the following PvM paths (in Hell, p8): Mausoleum, *Ancient Tunnels*, Chaos Sanctuary (Skipping RoF), Worldstone 1-3, Throne Room

I don't know if you meant to skip RoF entirely, but at least kill the random Champion and Unique packs between the waypoint and Chaos Sanctuary.

Weapon is Spirit Long Sword?

Err... where is Cathan's Rule Battle Staff? ^^

Which random magic properties are you aiming for on an Amulet?

Spirit longsword, correct!
Battle staff - thank you >_< Oops, missed that somehow :lol: ALMOST COMPLETE :lol:


Amulet - Skills, FCR, Life, resis
anything else (like stats) are a bonus
Would really love skills/fcr/life/resis though :drool:

To first gamble an ammy for crafting:

At CLvl 93, and using the +4/-5 leeway in gambling for ILvl, the worst you can gamble is ILvl88 amulets. Using the crafting formula, INT(ILvl/2)+INT(Clvl/2) this means the amulet would be 44 and you would be 46, hitting the 90 necessary to gaurantee that, should the +2 skills prefix get rolled, you would keep the affix.

A CLvl90 character could gamble as low as ILvl85, which means 42+45=87, only a 40% chance of keeping that affix if you roll it on the craft, however, you could gamble as high as ILvl94. In truth, all you should need are plain +2 to skill amulets and a CLvl90 character, since each are Lvl90, it means 45+45=90 again.

Thank you
Is it worth it to craft at clvl 80-84? It's going to be a LONG time before im 90 :lol:
