Without proof , you might be the one that rapidly muled the item and shouting to scam.

What's is proof? Someone can said I hide it. I hear that mod can check history of item on char.

Came back with the D4 announcement, happy with the mod being a longtime player. Dived right back into playing HC as I didn't want to develop any poor SC habits.

Just died in an unexpected way and was hoping for some clarification - was level 100, in the arreat plateau, 9800 HP, 70k armor, 76-78 fire/cold/light/pois, 14% Phys Resist, 3% block (heh), 307% FHR, 24% Avoid&Evade, 230 life on attack, 6fpa Unholy Melee Paladin. It felt like a one shot - I was running up to the Vampiress' guarding the entrance to the Cystalized Passage and I just popped. I feel like I may have gotten a single swing off on one of them, and I saw what looked like a bloodstar spawning head near me. I had 0% magic resist also, maybe that? But what does nearly 10k in Nightmare?

Thanks!

Kill any superunique in the act. Easiest ones are the one in spider cave that guards the chest for the quest item or the vizier at the entrance of kurast.

I tried that twice killing the council in Travincal - nothing. When I read your post it confirmed what I thought, so I tried again in the spider cavern and it dropped. Weird. Thanks for taking the time :thumb:

That could be effective if the wall was built on the US/Mexico border, badum tss.

hello,

I wonder how certain skills (which deal a % of the weapon damage) work...

in particular, how do they work with elemental weapons? how is the weapon damage calculated? what stats and bonuses affects skills like ancient's hand, stormblast, deathgaze, tantrum... ?

if say my helm adds 100-120 fire damage, is it calculated for the purpose of specific damage dealt by one of the mentioned skills?

if i use a standard sword for example, that deals physical damage... i calculate the damage of ancient's hand based on the damage in the sword, then i add 100-120 fire damage? or fire damage is calculated as part if weapon damage?

if i use mystic orbs that enhance the weapon damage? do they work with elemental weapons? and are increasing the damage dealt by ancient's hand, deathgaze, etc.?

thank you very much in advance for your support... i am a bit confused :)
