armo78: Jawbone Cap, Wolf Head, Heavy Boots, Heavy Gloves, Light Belt, Preserved Head


That explains everything. These items are always making me rage as I never find SU variants of them :P Thanks for confirming my thoughts.


I thought a sacred spangenhelm was rarer than Jawbone, really the most annoying item to find sacred (Just checked, way lower chance, no love for zons). And I still can't wrap my head around the fucking light belt being the rarest belt.


I was 100% sure that the above item list is 2nd rarest after Anc.Armor and Spangenhelm (hence why Khazra, Hele and Asgard are so expensive).

Considering Jawbone Cap, this is the only type of item I never found as SU/SSU/SSSU on SP/MP and I used to farm old XIVb Chrysaor for 2x SU drops 24/7, you know.

Interesting, but still pretty pointless number crushing.

This might explain why Dest Diablo drops su's that are mainly lower tiers such as quilted armor and throwing knife

Wow, bone helm is rare. That ancient armor category is almost ten times as rare as gothic plate category in base game.. still three times in dunc.. good to know.

Sure. Tier6-5 was removed so "sacred" become more rare.
You need just optimal magic find? Try 250mf, i was test 1000-100. Stopped at 253mf.

Assuming effective mf is the same in MXL as normal d2 ideally you want at least 320 as long as kill speed doesn’t suffer. Everything up to 650 is still noticing beneficial bit the margin is usually to small vs kill speed lost for most builds for it to be worth it. Every build can get 320 with almost no dps loss.
