So I have a "weller" lvl 85

During the last event I welled a bunch of whites for muting, low level stuff

I recall not having a lot of side drops, a lot of the time only the item I dropped, barely ever higher level sides

Today I did items close to my lvl on main, got like 5-6 items drop multiple times, to the point I couldn't pick them up (shoutout to mobile)

this begs the question: am I a fool who has been welling wrong this whole time, if yes how to well to get best drops?!

Try use magic luck on last hit.
Yeah same item lvl may affect more side drops to drop + one lvl higher.
For more information try get better opinion since I don't well very often .

This game don’t give to fucks as your level.


From my testing

Level 64 death char gives you best yield of 55 drops (white or magical +)

Other than that . I have done a lot of mirro mazes which takes your chars past 95:100

And I have allways gathered
More items on a death char at the level I am talking about

There will always be people who disagree
But don’t listen to them
They are liars

I agree with this statement. 64 death Weller gives most amount of 55 items.

Cannot speak in respect to mirror maze, but in my 101 climbs, I noticed more drops from the level 64 char.

As for your question about welling...
I have noticed you gain more side drops if your level is closer or less than the item that is dropped in.
It seems I get more side drops more often on lvl 45 items and higher than on level 30 and lower.

This is pretty much 100% correct. How to explain, I may be misinterpreted, but hopefully it makes sense.

Character level 63-69 and welling level 55 items will yield MORE sidedrops. (@ level 85, the sidedrops may decrease because of the mechanics.

Character level 55-60 and welling level 45 items will yield average side drops.... but, you will have a better chance of side drops being level 50 or 55, and more chances of getting MORE side drops.

Now I always well white items within my character level range... so if I am level 15, I will well Tier III / IV / V items and the side drops are decent (most of the time), but, I also have a chance that the side drops are TWO(2) Tier LEVELS higher (OR level req)... for example; I drop a Tier III white into the well and my character level is 8, the side drop rate increases and ALSO have a chance of SIDE DROPS being upto Tier V (level 10 req).

I hope this helps. Test it out for yourself, you may find it more beneficial to have a Death Caster Weller on SC @ level 63 or 69.

It should be worth testing out whether there is an ideal level, or the lower you are compared to the well monster, the better the drops you get, unfortunately I don't have good enough gear for this.

If that's the case then you could have items on you specific to the type of monster spawning, like plates vs physical, robe vs caster, also not sure if you drop armors into wells that they wear that if true then use mage vs plate drops and melee vs robe drops...

At any rate I need to have all my mules to be different level wellers if I want to get the most bang for the buck for the whites I drop, since I collect lvl 10+ whites.

You might consider doing this AFTER we reset since we have a few alchemists now…..

I already Well Tier III items at level 1-10 (and even 15) because the drop rate is still sufficient, you also gain prof points (if Rank is below the character level).

I will Well Tier IV / V / VI whites at level 15-30... again, the drop rate (sides), prof etc are good.

I will Well Tier VII to X from level 30 to 45... same reason as above

If (if) I have level 45+ whites, I will well them at level 55 to 70.

You can test these out for yourself to find a medium level to welling Whites of certain Tier (level) based on your character level.

Good... oh, btw, from level 1 and finding a Well in your catacomb and dropping White Tier III items... your armor and main charm should have at LEAST 2xx max life, I actually use Wpn/Armor & charm with max life (Tier III of course) above 150 max life. Just a heads up.
