ED vs. EWD, 350% ED possible?

[damacon]

Orange name means that item was shrine crafted in cube and the recipe needs a sacred rare item so the base dmg is very high and so on boosted by ED it comes with numbers like this also got that double MO

So to recap how you did it:

1) Find a sacred rare item (good base dmg)
2) Reroll it to superior
3) Cube it with a shrine (Which one do you think would be best for bowazon?)
4) Cube it with oil of luck? (Do oils of blessed luck still exist? I tried killing Griswold on terror difficulty but I can't get it to drop for me)
5) Use MO on it to get double effect?

I'm still totally lost on the right order to do everything in. Even though the documentation tells you how to do everything, it doesn't tell you which order everything should be done it to maximize your stats.

1) find sacred rare
2) use shrine to craft until you get your desired rolls
3) use shrine again with arcane crystal to bless it
4) use MO's until you you run out of MO space
5) use lucky oil on it

you cant roll rares into superior, that only works with normal quality items and can be used for rw's
for rw's the order in which you MO and socket the rune is immportant since you can overcome the 200% cap if you use your MO's first.
for shrinecrafting the order isnt that important afaik

Last step would be to socket punch it (if it doesn't already have max sockets), then make runeword w/ 5 jewels + rune (does that sound right?

are we talking about crafts or rw's now? im confused
crafts always have the maximum ammount of sockets

for rw's its:

1) find base item or gamble it if you dont have access to sacreds yet
2) make it into a normal quality item if it isnt normal already (catalyst of destruction + rune + item)
3) make it superior (oil of enhancement)
4) reroll with oil of renewal until the boni are at a desireable value and the item has either 0 or max sockets (since you cant socketpunch it if it has sockets)
5) use lucky oil
6) if the lucky recipe didnt work repeat steps 4+5. if it is an armor piece you want to get the 1% dr (if you use the item just for leveling this isnt as important)
7) MO the item with %ED but check that you can still wear it after adding the rune. if you got a lvl 100 rune you can add +20 required lvl which is 5 normal MO's or 2 UMO's
8) add jewels + rune (make sure you upgraded the jewels aswell. crafted jewels with lucky oil upgrade)

This is super helpful, thanks! What about for crafts? How do I tell if something is "rare"?

Rare is a yellow item. Magic is blue. Unique is gold. Crafted is orange.
