Highest i've had from welling was a 15x.
Highest i've had from eps is a 19x

the 21x recently found on hardcore was from a group explore where they whistled to 45 as 5 man group then explored 45 to 71.

80% of the 2xx+ items are muted these days


Having a welling character makes sense if you intend to empty the market of level 45-55 whites. If you intend to only well the items you find you probably dont need one in my opinion.

I prefer to just save whites in my vault and well them as I come across a well while soloing. I'll use 1 piece of ml gear and try to stick to white items within 10 levels of my char level. I prefer it this way as welling is great prof if done around your level. Throwing in a lvl 20 item at lvl 35+ will award basically 0 prof gain.

I've found almost nothing through welling, but do make great muteable items. Basically all of my gg drops have been found from eps/exploring.

No welling char for me then. Probably just leave it to others and try to use whites to fund my vault costs over time. :)

So how do most 150+EE come into the game if not wells? EP? High level monsters?


If you get bored you can take a look at my blog where I catalogued most of my interesting drops since I started slashing until blogs were discontinued by the forum:

https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=74639039&f=276

There are quite a few decent welled drops in there. For example, the first and second useful overspawns found after the rewrite that made it possible to go over perfect with ML were found by me and were both welled ;)

The second one is a 182 ee 8 int lvl 30 scale so I guess that’s higher than 150.

I’ve only found two 200+ ee drops and they were both from EPs but I’ve found a ton of nice things welling (always with ML) and I almost never switch gear to well. I make sure my ML gear is good enough to fight with :evil:

Do you have a dedicated Weller? Do you have more than one?

Are they melee or mage? I'm considering making a character to well with as I tend to find a lot of whites on my climbs.

Also, do I really need magic luck gear? It seems tedious. Can I still pull 200EE items without it?

Selling whites all the time feels more tedious than just chucking them in wells myself without ML. Would I come out better off in the long run selling whites or chucking them periodically without ML?


Just be cautious when you well a higher level item as it can be lethal when fighting the monster, especially when it's a good item. I just whistle when I find a well. I seldom save items for welling, but if I have the storage space I'll save even low level daggers just to see if I "get lucky". GL with your finds! :thumbsup:

I use a mage 35level + for welling as I have a robe/ staff with just ml on them..so with a ee charm /heal can work. So kind of i guess ...gear wont work with melee class..
