Nithalak is a great place to farm uniques to make arcane crystals but they are all tier 2 uniques. Anyone know the best place to farm for tier 1 uniques? They're helpful to twink newer characters.

- but what this mean and how this work ?

It's same as "on kill" but also working with any spells (still will NOT work for summons' or merc kills)

Uh.... nearly every TU of tier 2 require level not higher than 30 and stat(-s) not higher than 150. Both are very easy obtainable while walking thru first 2 acts in early runewords. I see no problem in twinking t2 uniqs :\

can anyone tell me breakpoints for throwing assa?
(find in search fhr - 200, fbr - 174, ias - ???)

i know about speedcalc but i cant open it on ubuntu

Not easy to calculate without knowing if you use Thiefling morph or the weapon type or if Assassin gets speed from skills and what combat speeds you may have on gear/charms. I guess D2stats doesn't work with ubuntu either, so you have to add them up manually and figure it out yourself.

It works if you run it via Terminal.

Open a Terminal -> CD to where the .jar file is located -> then type:
java -jar Speedcalc.jar

Also, if AnimData.txt exists (with an uppercase "A"), you may need to rename it to animData.txt to avoid an error.

Which spells get a boost from this mystic orb ?

in other words where can you find out what all spells are considered physical/magic spells?

For example is the Paladin's skill "Vessel of Justice" a magic spell? And what the heck is a physical spell?

TIA

"physical" is just the damage type. like magic damage, and the other 4 elements. vessel deals physical damage despite being a spell.

For example is the Paladin's skill "Vessel of Justice" a magic spell? And what the heck is a physical spell?

1.) It's a physical spell. (Skill icon will say "SPELL" and then in that instance, it also says "PHYSICAL DAMAGE: xx-xx"
2.) A spell that does physical damage.

tl;dr a skill that scales as a spell (gains spell damage, energy factor, etc) but doesn't use your weapon's damage. It's the same as a fire spell or poison spell, but physical damage.
