Short Questions Thread

[noal]

I'm looking to clarify the differences that are available on TSW, and have a few questions. Please let me know if I am missing anything, or have misinterpreted something.

You can level to 121-125, but this takes a ton of farming. (Can you get anything out of this other than +5 skills, +25 stats, and some MO space?)

There are realm only uniques/sets/runewords (Share your favorites with me if you are so inclined...)

CotW can drop with some skills not available in SP. Notably Uberskills. (So you could have more than one Uberskill? Sounds cool. How OP is it?)

Kabraxis' Stone has a 121 lvl requirement. (Is this just a nerf?)

Drop rates are lower because crowd-sourcing.

Thanks

1. Its fun (and competitive) to reach higher lvl, also in MP lvl 121 is a must if u want to use Xis rw (yes its a nerf)
2. Yes there are a bunch of realm only items - I pretty like Locket of dream amy and Longview secret rw armor
3. You can get help and help others on MP, can trade items and can have playmates. I think those are the most important reasons for ppl to choose MP over SP

what is the difference between battle.net and open bnet? when I connect to my closest server I get around 500 ping but when I go to open bnet its about 100 which is more manageable. Thanks

Yeah, I understand RNG well enough, was just wondering whether "sacred" was based on the item type (weapons and armor of different tiers being different item types) or whether it was drawn from a list of drops somewhere that also affected jewelry and the like (since they're all technically the same item type regardless of which unique "tier" they're from). "Based on item type" gives me my answer though, so thanks

jewelry isn't sacred (even though some are listed in the su page). internally they're all just normal uniques. so dunc doesn't give a bias for their drop. iirc

edit: so you're stuck with fauz. also not sure if unique biased areas help, since the treasure class of jewelry is included with runes/gems. I'd have to check if they are included in the unique drop treasure classes... but I'm not home so can't check.
