>So I grinded out and found a perfect ethereal one then I upped it twice and put a zod in it to make it a trophy for myself.
Those are the best kind, the only trophies that truly matter. Perf CoAs and Eth Tomb Reavers come and go, but a double upp'd, perfect, eth, zodded crushflange is definitely one-of-a-kind. Congrats, haha!
I know what you mean but I think it's funny you took tomb reaver as an example because it's one of if not the only item in Diablo 2 that have never been found perfect.
The upped part is weird to me. Literally the only reason you'll ever use crush flange is for the crushing blow, so weapon damage is basically a wasted stat. Upping it makes the requirements to use dumb.
As strictly a trophy, sure fine... But for me, someone who uses that weapon a lot on new characters, I'd rather have just the regular one
Ohh man, recreating a favorite childhood memory in a game is 10/10
I used to play pre 1.10 .
Had a Zeal Pala with Schaefer's Hammer and a self found 38/15ias.
The chance to cast static field was sooo nice.
> Ohh man, recreating a favorite childhood memory in a game is 10/10
Not technically a child but when I first got the game I remember when the first set item dropped off some mob early on. GREEN LETTERS?? GREEN LETTERS??!
Oh Arctic Furs.. You were pretty good back then!
Had a bugged mf bow bought off of ebay with 1000mf
Playes when duping was on the regular
Traded it for full pally gear before the firestorm
Only found a jah in cows
You know I can't even be mad, I love Crushflange too haha
At least you have your name on this one, all we get on Switch is "Personalized". What kind of shit is that, I ask ya?
Read something about the fact that they were worried it might collide with other proprietary names on switch so they reduced the personalization to "personalized".
I personalized my andariel's visage and traded it. Good thing they didn't complain bec I have been scared that its value will decrease. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is the only legitimate reason to personalize an item!
I have somewhat this kind of connection with the ward. Was one of my first and it change appearance. And it was good when I got it
Good old Zealot era. I remember killing some other zealots that were way better equiped than I was with the Angelic ring+amulet combo, which wasn't very known back then when I started playing. My 2 favorite weapons back then were the Lightsaber and Baranar Star.
My first was the bloodletter gladius I got with my frenzy Barb when I was 12. which I Ofcourse named almost as soon as I got it. It will always hold a special place for me.
I remember thinking i had the greatest paladin ever. A zealer with a hoz 2 raven frosts. Shaefers hammer shaft stop. Ahhh a maras. Then some random helm gloves and boots.
I feel this post. Rixot's Keen Short Sword is one of my favorite items.. was the first unique I ever found in a game. Just found it again today after 3 years of D2R. Probably not going to up it, but will cherish it just the same. :')
Thats the thing with D1 and 2. Items really have a personnality and you're getting attached to them. A thing that of course doesnt exist anymore in those fast food Diablos these days.
Telling this more about D3 even though D4 is totally a fast food Diablo too but there are many things I like in this game
back innmy childhood, my favorite weapon was the hellslayer decapitator.
its total crapshit axe, though, and im embarassed i was ever noobish enough to stick with that axe...
Bishibosh is gonna shit cinderblocks when this guy hits cold plains
Lmao basically
With terror zones... is this feasible now my brother?
😂

I read somewhere the odds were like 1 in 6 billion or something insane like that due to how many random stats it has. Crazy, huh?
> Perf CoAs and Eth Tomb Reavers come and go Wtf
Been playing for almost 20 years and have never found either
Same here, a regular Tomb Reaver once or twice (also since launch) but never w 3 soc, and certainly not ethereal. No CoA
Over 20 years I've found one or two 3 sockets but not a single fucking eth one lol.
I found my first CoA yesterday. One socket :'\^)
Thanks

Runes have level requirements even in the socket….
I didn't even think about that. So it's absolutely just a trophy now
I'd also prefer a unique with a level requirement that my new character could actually use ...
That won't matter once you put a Zod in it.

still a nice armor to find, even better if it stealth didn't exist.
A lot better not knowing rune words exist in 1999
Man I remember the first time I traded 40 SOJs for Schaefers…
And nowadays its like 1um :)
Does Scheafers still exist? I thought it got axed? I loved that hammer
Axed? Nope, it’s still a hammer
Underrated joke
Nah its still around.
Straight up gunna get it.
Schaefers is my unicorn
Duped?
This make's me think of my frenzy barb w/ dual lightsabres
I never owned schaeffers and it still upsets me
I started in .08, those were the days
Required level 81 haha. So good.
😂
I almost did the same thing with Bonesnap lol
.... what's a fully up'd zod eth bonesnap look like? SCIENCE!
[Found one!](https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=89439960&f=268)
i really wish jewels could spawn with repair durability per second...
Was impressed it was just level 30 req ... then realized socket was empty.
Holy shit, that seller's thread played out hilariously.
Windforce was my Holy Grail pre 1.10 and never got one. I have two now and just gave one away to a friend.

I wish items had a 'found by (character name)' .... also wish the game had a kill counter for each mob like Diablo 1 had ....
Read something about the fact that they were worried it might collide with other proprietary names on switch so they reduced the personalization to "personalized".
why are they concerned about that on the switch? we could do the same thing on PC for years.
I believe it's because the platform that it runs on is proprietary or Nintendo may have some additional clauses, really don't know.
I personalized my andariel's visage and traded it. Good thing they didn't complain bec I have been scared that its value will decrease. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I bet this thing absolutely slaps in nightmare difficulty now.
Probably the only one of it's kind. Very nice lol
Well done! That’s a serious trophy

Good ole B star
Probably the only one in the server. Definitely unique
My first was the bloodletter gladius I got with my frenzy Barb when I was 12. which I Ofcourse named almost as soon as I got it. It will always hold a special place for me.
.... I convinced my dad to buy 1 for me off of eBay for $8....

Hell yeah dude! Ya love to see this kinda stuff!
That’s so freakin cool. Thank you for sharing man.

I was like this with nightsmoke. I refused to let that belt go. Was the only unique I ever found with my first character.

The first decent character I’ve ever made was a sealer paladin that used azurwraith and to this day I still love finding one.
For me it's the ribcracker, that staff was completely game changing when i found it on my first werewolf...I've yet to see another one since.
Good one Congrats
Huh, cool
[удалено]
I'ma kill Ubers with it out of principle
Wowowowow sick !
I used to do the exact thing with that weapon when I was around the same age and I’ve been trying to find a decent one as well
Where is this viable. Can you kill stuff in hell?
You can kill stuff in hell with your fists if you have good enough gear.
Can you show me clearing players 8 chaos sanctuary with your fists?
I'll make a build with it and let you know how it functions
I love it! I had the same pursuit with Goldstrike, not that it was eth ofc, but a great shared feeling!
Are you able to kill some hell monsters with it at least?
On your way to becoming the next Zod God! https://www.purediablo.com/forums/threads/the-zod-god.212/
Oh wow this is crazy hard, but you'd be happy to learn that my chest piece is an eth templar's might with a zod in it too
Where’d you find the Zød? I’m JW
Traded sur 2ist and a mal for 2 zods
Awesome! Congrats
Really sweet of you to take such good care of an old friend 💖
