Wait if luck trial is removed then how on earth can RW compete with SU for endgame weapons now?

Love the update - just hit 120, thanks Marco.

Anyone else having a bug with the Black Road Challenge? I got the first 3 requirements no problems but I got a scroll that says "cube with 2 arcane crystals" anywhere - I've done it twice, but no "completion" on the charm and no additional scroll - just eats the crystals. Any advice?

No idea, I know rw's been nerfed a lot in damage. So we gotta make some rw's and compare.

Well, you can still use 5 jewels inside of the base, and the jewels themselves have the potential to be much stronger than say, gems and runes. And the xis runewords are strong. But true, it is much more expensive for a very good runeword.

Yep, I guess it's time to reroll to totemancer.

The number of ED itself is scaled down, but the actual damage of the weapon is roughly the same. On Single Player, I had a

with MO'd up to 200% ED and it still had the max roll defense on the item. It just looks lower because the ED was scaled down, so perhaps its better to test that base items were adjusted and %ED has a greater effect per 1% now?

Is there any way to obtain a better resolution than 800x600? Am i missing something in the options?
