How important or useful is the affix: adds xx-xx damage? I am certain I don't understand it because it doesn't seem that good to me.

46-49 base damage on blade talons
Eth XisJudge with ~200 ed = 207-220 damage

thai jewelcraft = 4 min damage + 3 from affix = 7 min damage per jewel

If you use 20x jewels like that you're doubling your physical damage and thus lifesteal (which you'd get from gear instead of jewels), and so on. The less base damage you have the more value it gets.

That makes sense. Thanks for the quick replies. I found the Crystal of Tears UMO (adds 7-12 damage and -2% max life), and I guess now I'm curious if that is worth putting into an armor piece for the 10 levels it requires. Based off what you said, I think it may be. (I am playing an Iron Spiral barb)

better use on low ilvl quiet-shrine (or creepy for str/cb or ornate for lightning pierce?) crafted boots. use the rare downlevel recipe with a sacred rare item + rare ring + rare amulet = sacred rare item ilvl 1. this will put your required level to wear them at about lvl 30-50 depending on the affixes that spawn on the craft.

I might be wrong but wasnt that a previous ladder feature with a specific roll where other items could get other oskills too.

@sirius stop complaining. its rng. it will roll eventually. maybe the weapon you are rolling is not high enough ilvl.

The possibility of the Oskill being unable to appear was frustrating for me, not the small rng chance it has :) Good to know that it is possible afterall thnx

Why there is dext bonus on tiefling form? it's a caster form so useless for ar , no def bonus because of 0 tdc and it's not enough for max block caster build :/ so I don't understand
