Well sure, of course it's possible. But class specific items have a worse drop chance than non-class specific. Make's it tough.

Since the day that the patch has launched, I've been trying to get it - mainly farming Tran/ Fautz & K3K as my 120 Stormcaller.
My friends which I have been playing together with, also had no success getting one.
They too have played for over 2-3 weeks farming same locations as me with Dunkreg & Tojara on top of that.

So far, 5 ppl strong have been able to get 1 Sacred Setzschild.. the set one.
Is it a bug, or is the chance of dropping Sacred version (for craft) lower than most of the super uniques in the game? The tiered version drops in plenty though.


Your better of farming something late game like Halls of Pain/Unformed Land/Dunc for a Setzschild. Even late game Terror I believe has a better chance mathematically of dropping a Sacred setzschild than dcows/Tran/K3.

I actually have the same problem with Setzschild.For some reason it doesn't drop.I started looking for one about week ago thinking ill get it easily by farming whatever i want and somewhat looking at the drops,but found the hard way its gonna be pain in the ass.Last 3 days i've been clearing Duncraig even tho i hate this zone reading every single drop and i stil got nothing.Feels like im reading a book everyday maybe i should make some changes to the lootfilter or something...Getting desperate halp.Soon might get condition when i read Setzschild.
Edit:I decided to just buy the shield from the amazon set.Best buy ever.FeelsGoodMan

Ok guys im gonna change my mind about thunderstone-its pretty good even with one source from the shield.
Just did terul and uldy and there are some nasty bosses with very high hp regen. Couldnt hurt them with stormcall, thunderstone did the job.
So my advice-keep the shield :)
As for uldy- love the new mechanic, the fight now require skill not just spamming non stop barrage, in about 33% or 25% his life he starts to run away form us, seems hard in the start but youll learn how to navigate him in the upper left corridor, in the others corridors you wont see him clearly.
Prime edyrems and ancients?- keep your stormcall equipment, belladona elixir and max balefire so its 5 sec ancients, 15 second primes :shock:
2 x uldy kill, charm rolled +0 all skills twice :-x

Which mercenary do you guys recommend for Stormcaller 2017?
High dps Ranger Sister (Act I)? Meaby stun via Barbarian (Act V) is worth trying?
I'm currently leaning towards Iron Wolves (Act III). Right now using Bloodmage (fire + poison) variant - combined with our lightning/ physical damage source, grants opportunity to kill almost any opponent during farm runs.

I almost always use bloodmage or aburjer these days on all my characters. Basically just because I'm lazy and honos/crafts go a really long way in making these guys work well.

This may be not the most optimal setup but for a lazy man it's pretty great.

edit: id use bloodmage for stormcaller over aburjer since you dont have a natural source of fire or poison damage which can help diversify your damage types against immunes. Also the heals are great :D

Due to high base damage of Punisher/ Graveyard (poison damage), crafting fire-boosting oriented gear seems reasonable, don't you think?
Also, his fire skills (Pyroblast, Flamefront) seem to be dealing damage in more consistent manner (the way they are applied/ reliabiliy of application).
