Short Questions Thread

got it, my mistake was doing just unique + 2 crystals . will use runes from now cheers

Im playing dex-based meele sorc.
Trying to craft som good armor.

Is it better to take the highest possible armor with highest defense (high str req).
Or should I choose something with lower req and save the points for extra dex?

if you play melee sorc why would you not use a sorceress-only armor and have requirements based on dexterity instead of STR lol? get a sacred ceremonial armor .

Thats true!
How about gloves and boots then?

Heya guys, quick question about the assassins doom curse.

In addition to decreasing resistance doom states it will deal additional X physical damage per hit.
Does this include spells like the assassins psyonic storm and singularity (= damage taken) or does only weapon damage count?

I'm trying my luck with a psionic caster assassin, if you got any suggestions I'd be happy to hear them

about gloves and boots i would craft the one with highest defence (gauntlets and greaves) and put jewels with -requirements inside if the STR to equip is too much

I have understood that every PHYSICAL dmg (be it weapon dmg or spell) triggers Dooms per hit thingie. Psionic Storm no way as it's magic dmg, only -res affects.

And that TTAD abuse on projectiles is a hoax.

Not 100% sure, someone correct if wrong.

thx and sry cerber, i am very new here.

I still dont fully understand.

Lets take this item:

I have the desired unique gloves. Ilvl 99 but with 2 sockets. Oil of renewal + gloves in cube = does nothing.
How can I get these gloves to have 4 sockets?

Just upgrade them with crystals till max tier?
I am only talking about socketing uniques.

Or it just depends on luck when you create/pick it?

This is what I use for reference on uniques. You always get the solid listed affixes unless they've been patched ( epierce, edamage, EDamage, Edefense) and roll a random within the variations ( again can be patched). The sockets depend entirely on the tier and can not vary. Sockets vary on items you can punch sockets on to ( normal and magical ones)

Btw I really wish the documention would be updated with details , such as patched changes in elemental damage, pierce, not being able to use crafted jewels for RW. Also wish character guides would update for the considerable patched features (reliance on blink, rerolling rares, MO guide for the new limit)

P.S. I am new as well, but do a lot of google searching in and out of the documentation.

The modsbylaz link you referenced is very very old, specifically two forums ago. That site isn't being updated anymore. With the M2017 patch the docs needed a big update which is currently in progress. It looks like the items sections are complete or near complete as far as the affix adjustments are concerned. I've posted the link for the docs below which can also be accessed through the [GAME] tab at the top of the page.

Crafted jewels can still be used for runewords and I've personally used them this patch so maybe you can elaborate further as to why its not working. Rerolling rare item was removed and that info is available in the change log, which happens to be the splash page of the documentation. It also lists the changes/rework for mystic orbs.

Some guides (on this forum) are being updated btw. But a proper update requires a full play-through + gearing, which takes time.

My character can hold up to only 630.000 golds. I tried to get more from ground, stash, item sell but can't hold more. How can I do the Trial of Greed for Black Road Challenge? (I tried this on Terror. Also I think now, maybe I need Signet of Gold but this would be annoying >_<)

Edit: Okies, thanks.
