Only that the items have a written chance not in %, but in yes or no. I tried on 30 Angel of Death amulets. No matter how many tests I perform on the same amulets, only those that received the first attempt get +1 skill. The next attempt is the same. only gets what they got in the first series. So I don't understand why there are two oils if the item has a 100% chance or 0%.


in-game right click on oil for item description, it is pretty well explained, at least in the english version.
On items, you either have a 100% chance of getting +1 skill or your chance is zero, so what does it matter whether the oil has a 20% chance or a 40% chance?

oil of greater luck gives more stats if it possible (on armor, weapon) on amulet just same 1 skill

the Oil of Luck (basic) has a 20% chance and the Oil of greater Luck has a 40% chance to add different modifiers, those are fixed and set by item type (armor, weapon, amulet etc..). Example:
Oil of Luck: out of 5 lucky upgraded quivers, 1 will have the +5% all attributes affix, statistically speaking.
Oil of greater Luck: out of 5 lucky upgraded quivers, 2 will have the +5% all attributes affix, statistically speaking.
for practicality: you will always want to use the oil of greater luck on items that are important or rare to you, because it increases your chances of successfully adding the affix you want.

Just as I thought. In the case of jewelry, it does not matter at all. Thanks for your help guys.

if you can't figure out that the seed is set on a specific item when it's dropped and duping shit isn't testing, nobody can help you

Nobody is talking about cheating or duplicating items. Angel of Death can be found in larger quantities in t10 without any problems. I was just curious.

Succubus in t10 had an invisible curse/debuff that required an additional 30% fire resists. A total of 280% if you want to get 90%. Succubus are gone. Do these new monsters that replaced the succubus also have this curse/debuff when using cold/lightning spells?

What do you mean?. Currently Superbeast have all weapons available. If you want non-pal class weapon - just check base items and pick any weapon with same speed modifier that you using. For example: barb-only Labrys have WSM 25 (and it's the only weapon with such WSM) pick closest to it - these are Maul (24) and Great Maul (28) So your breakpoints will be abit higher IAS needed than superbeast with Maul or reasonably lower than superbeast with Great Maul.. Then only way is visual testing.
