You might want to try D-Cows and K3K if u are not strong enough to run Fauzt.

@LH i guess maybe, personally i don't like things with procs if i farm heavy dense areas too many sparks and shiny things on screen
i also never liked 1-1000 damage or similar in d2, never liked lightning assassin or sorceress because of the high disparity
prefer 375 fixed elemental to that but also the 100% ias on aspect can help you reach max fpa and it's good enough to farm

Yea but the ele damage + %dex + the pierce are far more valuable than a static 375 ele damage, not to mention Ecstatic Frenzy makes IAS breakpoint very easy anyways, but I see what you're saying. too many procs can be messy.

Sup,

Started playing single player (just reasons) and for some reason the character is gone (in the char selection screen). The save files are there. Whats the issue?

I am using d2se and plugy.

and there are 6 Different Emblems.

is it affected by MF ? is there a biased area ? i only saw 1 drop from T Cows when some dude was plvling me up.


i have recently acquired all 6 emblems on single player. your best bet is to farm heavily dense monster areas quick and easy
don't know what class you play but i farmed the last 4 emblems that i needed in cow level (other 2 i found in random places can't remember)

diety bow is not all that great in my opinion unless you play treewarden with max attack FPA
a better elemental damage bow would be
Aspect
if you have a XIS rune or pure physical version
Shattered Stone


@khalonb where are you farming? Tcows (especially not during pleveling since that's only like 3-4 runs to hit 120..) are not your best bet for them. I found three in an hour the other night between TA and Fauztinville in Destruction.

they are pretty rare yes but if you farm high density areas and do it quick you will eventually find them all
be prepared to find a few of each, for me i found like 2 hate 3 terror and 1-2 of others before completing the 6
i think you will also be disappointed when you craft the bow, it did not live to my expectations at all

You can use them for the Laz charm upgrade. Don't have to make the bow with them.

Lucky upgrade to the Unique amulets?

So I've done the Lucky upgrade to about 6 or 7 of the Witchmoon amulet, trying to get +3 skillz, instead of the +2 it comes with. Never got the skill upgrade. Is it just unlucky, or are some items immune from this upgrade?
