this is an imbue guide, not gambling lmao
https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=84960528Gambling (Classic):
Don't gamble weapons. In classic you can't gamble exceptional level gear so weapons are useless. The uncommon exception is if you're looking for specific LLD (twink) items, or (even more uncommonly) an IAS flail for an auradin.
Gambling should always be done at the highest character level possible, even though the price of gambling goes up. Ideally you should just wait until you have max gold before gambling if you're not dying. If you do have extra gold and don't feel like waiting, or you're just waiting in town for a friend to finish being slow and you're feeling lucky, the best items to gamble are as follows:
0-23: Nothing, unless you really want something specific to help you level, like a better bow as a bowazon.
23-40: Caps and Skull Caps. Chest armors (quilted and leather) are another option, especially if you need the upgrade, but they are more expensive so you have a lower opportunity to get rares with good mods.
40-42: Leather Gloves, Heavy Gloves, Chain Gloves (25str).
42-60: Boots, Heavy Boots, Chain Boots (30str).
60-70: Belts (25str), Heavy Belts (45str), Plated Belts (60str) (No Sash or Light Belt).
70-93: Bone shields.
93+: Amulets.
I particularly did not agree 100% with this list in the guide above, as I think that in the classic for clvl90+ it is more appropriate to bet on amulets for their good igg resale value for the NPC.
Also good jewels can be traded with other players for items not available for gambling (Martel, Ornate, Ghim h/s) or even sold on jsp for fg
(Never forget trades as they are usually the smartest way for 2 players to get what they want at the same time!)
