Grats! :D
Still gonna farm for juicy rares? What kind of items did you have in mind?
On Duriel's drop:
From checking the code a little bit, the quest drop seems very persistent to drop the initially-picked quality (it will try up to 5 times). What's interesting though is that it will still drop the failed item.
So in your case it picked a Grim Shield, then determined it should be unique, but there is no unique variant for a Grim Shield, so it gets downgraded to a rare. Then the game will roll a new item base because it really wants to drop that unique. (The failed unique will still be dropped however.)
So then it picks a Knout, and also did not find a unique variant, so it got downgraded and dropped, and again the game rolls a new base. And so forth. You probably haven't checked the durability of those items, but I bet you that those 3 exceptional items had 5x durability. :P
Not totally sure why that Gothic Sword is rare, I think that might be a "regular drop".
for sure man
this is the main reason why I wanted to play 1.00, was to find some awesome pre patch modded drops.
i'll keep posting here all the items I find
my first hell cow king kill got a pretty useful oldschool dexterity mod belt
-40 exe. I'm wondering, I know that you don't get 2 handed damage on swords with this patch. but does it still show as 2 handed damge?
if this is 115 max damage for 1 handed, it's a super sick exe. but if this is the actual 2 handed, it's trash
