yeah ive seen this xploit explained here a while ago. they also made post in battlenet forums.
i am surpriced to see this is not patched yet.

There is also an exploit that crashes server so you can reroll items using the charsi imbue quest over and over untill it gets the stats u want.

Must not be a very good exploit if nobody is using it.

the boots cannot be kept upgraded that s why the crash occurs at all . player is trying to generate an item which is undefined according to the itemlist in d2 .
item is upgraded , server checks if item exists in itemlist -> false -> crash+rollback -> player/s roll back to the most recent game-save aka to some point where they haven t upgraded the item .

( item is old 08 and blizz didn t bother or forgot to add its other versions to the itemlist , thus undefined )

in earlier versions (< 2019 ) their checks were better because it was : 50 % server crash + item poofs , 50 % server crash + item doesn t poof
today ? as we see item doesn t poof at all anymore , lol

Well... a select few use it. It's a great exploit

it would be a great exploit if it wouldn t nuke a whole server xddd

there used to be methods that rolled back games+chars without crashing the server , i wonder if there are more of these out there

I agree and to be clear I should of stated that I'm not sure if this imbue exploit is what is crashing the sever.

i was going to test it to confirm it worked but didn't want to accidentally upgrade my 08 boots if it didn't

Please note those iso items on Page 1, time to get some fun char gosu items ^^

What 08 boots you guys using? ^
