For example, is it possible to get a set sacred ancient armor, or unique sacred ancient armor in K3K? If it is impossilbe, is there some documentation mentioning `top level` areas?

Thanks in advance!


You can find any type of Sacred item anywhere in Destruction (I once had Khazra Plate drop from some rando in the Kurast Bazaar).

As far as where to find things, it depends on what you're looking for. K3K has a Set drop bias, so it's generally a good place for Set items, and it's easy to farm for most builds. Duncraig has a Sacred drop bias. so you're more likely to find good Sacred items there (both Sets and SUs) if you can farm it efficiently. But it's tough for a lot of builds that don't already have decent gear. TA is kind of a middle ground. It's generally a bit tougher to farm than K3K, but easier than Dunc. It has a Unique drop bias rather than a Set or Sacred bias, but its high mob density means there's a higher chance at least something will drop, and thus, there's a higher chance something good will drop.

Player count also has a noticeable effect on drops (specifically, by reducing nodrop). So try increasing the player count if you're playing SP and can handle the increased difficulty. Or if playing TSW, find some farming buddies.

Perfect thanks. Just so I know that if I farm K3K in destruction there are some items that I will never find.

Thanks!

wtf

what are you wtf-ing about ? a xis takes hours to farm (guaranteed ) . finding the certain SU' you need can take weeks/months/you can actualy never find it if you are not lucky enough and you have to trade for it .

now go ahead and tell me a xis is not cheaper than a SU and that it's hard to get . i can expect anything from you MP guys

wtf :)

oh , i forgot , you just need TG online , you don't need to farm, you can just buy items . maby in your MP "economy" a xis is more expensive ...

Not sure I understand. You could still find all Sacred items by farming only K3K, including SSSU Ancient Armor, for example. You're just more likely to get Sets there b/c of the drop bias.

Sadly, yes. These new recipes are only for people playing the current season online. People playing SP have to find this stuff on their own.

Does anyone know if there is any way I can enable this for offline play?

The devs would have to release a client-side patch, which they don't intend to do afaik.

This opinion should stay offline where it belong to.
