True! Though I did have a 50% chance to roll 4os. :P


Can you explain that to me please? My knowledge is poor, and I'm wondering why an item that has a chance to get 1os, 2os, 3os, or 4os has a 50% chance to get 4os upon socketing and not a 25% chance. Are the chances really weighted differently for some reason?

I'll find a link to a jsp thread that will explain it better than me, but basically, the roll uses a base of 6, so since shields can only roll up to 4os, it becomes:

1os: 1/6 = 16.67%
2os: 1/6 = 16.67%
3os: 1/6 =16.67%
4os: (can't roll 5os or 6os) 3/6 = 50%

Hope that makes sense. :)

E: here is the link to that guide on socketing

Zomg! Awesome Sacred Armor ebug base! :D


3os or 4os would be fantastic


'Fortitude' base for merc obtained :D :thumbsup:

That does make sense to me of course, I just don't understand why the game would consider 5os and 6os as potential rolls in an item that can have a maximum of 4os.

e/ really nice drops this update though :thumbsup:
