I've been doing heavy boot at level 43, I didn't realize the item type mattered lol. Will switch to boot :D

Yeah, by hats I meant circ/diadems etc. I had a lot of luck gambling for LLD ones on my 42, and want to have a self-found one for a sorc... Eventually. They are expensive to gamble =[


heavy boots need ilvl 40 to roll 30frw
so at clvl 43, 20% of them couldn't have access to that affix due to the -5 to +4 RNG

That said, I just realized that I listed prices as if you could possibly reduce vendor price by 30%, but you can't use gheed before clvl 62, so only edge bow is available... eh

boot 43
heavy boot 45
chain boot 48
light plated boot 52
greaves 55

I'd gamble boots, you dont need def on tri-res boots, the lower clvl means lower igg cost.
12,743 gold at clvl 43
10,832 with 15 rvp
8,921 with 30 rvp

I wouldn't gamble hats. I don't see any use with all the RWs/uniques/sets/craft outperforming them. You'd need them to at least be eth, but you can't get eth items from gambling.
Boots arent really profitable either, unless playing classic.

Top options:
circs, amys, claws

rings and gloves are ok but not great

or wait... by 'hats' did you mean circs?
If so, you need clvl 92


Hmm, switched to gambling boot and wondering something.

When I was gambling chain boots, I'd often get 1-3 rare per inventory. With boot, I often get full inventories without a single rare. Is that normal?

Edit: I think I was just being unlucky.
