Got an ilvl 90 ring, lvl req 49 drop in A1 hatred as of level 19. :P Is this a bug?

Secondly, and I think I already know the answer to this.. From Amazon's pounce tree:
takedown uses fury: 2.5% max hp healed.
Is this on kill as long as takedown and fury is active? I believe it is, just wanted to ask. The skill doesn't specify it very well. Seems like I heal on kill with any skill while having both active.

Sometimes crafted is the best choice, sometimes sacred. Crafted are generally cheaper.

Can't withdraw bids. If someone doesn't outbid you, perhaps you can work a deal out with the seller to return the tg to you and he keeps the item for another auction or sale. But otherwise no, can't withdraw

depends on item and build . normaly a SU would beat a craft but it's not a general situation ; for some builds there are some available crafts that outshine any SU's , so there is a good balance between them (you can also mention Xis runewords here) .

Trying to figure out how to make my character stronger. I'm struggling to get through Destruction. I've switched from bowzon -> pouncezon -> stormzon. Having the most success with stormzon.

I'm assuming theres no way to roll rare rings / ammys now in this current patch? That would help quite a lot, especially getting a hailstorm neck but I can't find anything in the doc. I'm also assuming shrine drops are random and theres no way to farm a specific one.

Is there any decent farm spots in terror / a1-2 destruction to get set pieces or sacred uniques? Are there any charms I should get that will help? I have the class charm and the elemental prism.

do yourself a favour and read the changelog . it will save you from making some assumptions .



Farm terror fauztinvile . has sacred drop bias , shrines and jewelery . all in one . you won't find SU's in terror , but you can get sacred items to turn them into crafts with the shrines you find ; you can also find Set items + a lot of rings , jewels and amulets .

once you got decent gear , you can go to destruction ubers and farm for SU's (tran athula/duncraig)

for now it should be not so hard doing the butcher , creature of flame , k3kba , iotss , khalimgrad , binding of baal , assault on mount arreat , death projector , infernal machine , rhatma square , azmodan , CoV

good luck !

For sets: farm Tran athulua in terror.

First few charms to get are from butcher, creature of the flame and that other easy uber in a1 which I forgot the name of.

Infernal machine. Akarats summon and azmodan (both act 3) are very good charms to get for how easy they are as well.

Thai jewels and +dmg affixes or suffixes in general, affects weapon dmg or average dmg output? Works only for melee or also striking?
