so what areas have a higher than norm set drop? i believe k3k does but do other areas like TA or faunt or tez... or torj jungle?

In general, u should focus on D-TA and K3K.

K3K is supposed to have set bias, but in my experience, TA even got higher change to drop set items than K3K.

in 1.13 it seems even nihlathak room has more droprate for sets than k3k

you mean the act 5 temple of nilhtath....?? and yeah i notice tran seems way way better than k3k even with the boosted drop bias

Hi
I want a suggestion, i have a lvl 120 assasin MKV build, with some nice equip but it can be better, already have 1406 of dex, it could be more, the situation here is, may i have to max the MKV skill? it's a dumb question because obiously is the main attack skill, but i really don't how much damage i do with the magic bonus of the knifes, now the bonus is like 108% of my dextery, i want to know if i just have to max or put at just 100% or more? because maxed use too much mana, and already put MO of all kind of mana on my equip, what you say guys?

You can leave it at one point. You should be using MK5 to aim past the monster instead of aiming at it. You want more knives to hit, not the fire explosion thing. It will leech more, deal more ways damage, proc more, etc if you aim next to the mob instead of into it

Hello, I'm fairly new to the mod and I have been playing an asn, following a up-to-date guide on the forums and reading through the documentation in an attempt to better understand the game. I'm stuck at level 70 though, trying to get through a2 terror. Currently working towards farming crystals to uptier my uniques and MO my gear. I've essentially just been running andy, meph and diablo in hatred for guaranteed unique drops but I'm not sure if it's an efficient way of doing things. I've looked around trying to find any sort of progression advice, but most of it comes from older versions of median xl. My question is are there any recommended farming spots at this part of the game, or if i should just keep on trudging through terror difficulty slowly.

I don't want to have the game spoon fed to me, but I would appreciate being pointed in the right direction so i dont wander around aimlessly for too long.

Does anyone know how to make the game go full screen? I click on the full screen button but it only gets as big as about half of my screen. I tried the GLIDE-wrapper but that didn't work...and its to my resolution.

Dunno. I play ddraw setting and just click the little maximize window button near the top right by the close button. Makes it probably 80-90% of screen size, but a bit pixelated. Not really noticeable though unless you prefer 9000k HD super resolution.

Just kill Act bosses plus farm Tran Athulua, Cows, Nihlathak temple... (any high density places) to collect unique items, and you will also find more on the way through terror difficulty.

hmm if u really can't get to terror mephisto then farm terror andy
dont farm other bosses.. hatred meph is good as well if you're having troubles with terror andariel for some reason
then as soon as you have enough gear to reach terror meph farm him instead.

edit: if you need a lot of shards this process might seem like aids to you and you begin to wonder if there's a better way, i know but that's what works best currently.. maybe hatred TA on p8 or with a lot MF is better but P8 will be hard for you and u can't really get a lot of MF at 70
