Game Forum / Role Playing Games / Diablo / May 2005HC Trading
I just wanted to give a heads up to all the HC players. In addition to doing serious MFing for the first time in my D2 career, I have been doing a good bit of trading. Most low to mid range gear goes for perfect gems. The next level is mid range runes for the better stuff. PGs convert to runes at the rate of 35-40 > Pul (I got 2 Puls today though for 63 PGs though). The top end trades all involve HRs (high runes). With any level though, there is a good bit of volatility and you can get some very good deals. But one thing all HC players should be aware of is the value of some things you probably sell to vendors. This is primarily dueler gear, which is why the average PvM player might not recognize the value of it. Some things to keep an eye out for: +9 max damage, L9 req jewels +15 max, L18 jewels +15 life small charms, L15 req +20 life SCs A nice second mod will increase the value exponentially. For example, I saw a +20%ED/+9 max, L9 jewel trade for 5x Ist recently. Angelic set Ammy, and to a lesser extent the ring Death's set belt, and to a lesser extent the gloves Cow Kings set boots 4 socket ethereal gothic plate, w/ E Def is better 4 socket ethereal flail, w/ E Dam is better ethereal Bonesnap maul, high ED better Of course if anyone has/finds any of the above, I'd be glad to broker it for them. ;-) Regards- Mark Bongo-Fury > I just wanted to give a heads up to all the HC players.

I'm sure I've sold quite a few +9 max damage jewels to vendors. I'll print this and keep it handy.

This is primarily dueler gear, which is why This is true for SC players as well, at least those in USW server. I heard that LLD (low level dueler) items are even more popular in USE, but never confirmed it myself since I never played there. > the average PvM player might not recognize the value of it.

IIRC in SC, 1 to 4 of these went for a Lem. > +15 life small charms, L15 req If HC is equivalent to SC, only ones with +15 life are tradeable as LLD items. +14 has no value (unless it has a useful 2nd mod); +16 has no value because at +16 the level req is much higher. > +20 life SCs > A nice second mod will increase the value exponentially. For example, I saw [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > 4 socket ethereal flail, w/ E Dam is better > ethereal Bonesnap maul, high ED better In general, E Def (or E Dam) is much more desirable than E Dura. If the item has 15% E Def and no durability, the trade value increases exponentially. > Of course if anyone has/finds any of the above, I'd be glad to broker it for > them. ;-) There are many more dueler items that PvM players easily overlook. Since I had not played for some time, I will attempt to list few that I still remember. (P = perfect or near perfect stat, be it E Def, E Dam, def, or whatever else may vary). Some of these items are also useful fo PvM, but if you do find any, you are better off selling them and settle for the inferior version of the same item for yourself. P Magefist Hotspur P Eth unique sword that self repairs (forget name) P Biggins Bonnet Eth Hotspur Eth Biggins Eth Crainte Vomir 15 Str Eth unique boots that self repair P Eth HoZ P Eth unique barbie hat lvl 42 P Goreriders Mana/Life sc (perhaps gc too, but not lc) Mana/FHR, Resist/FHR sc Shimmering sc of vita Skill gc with useful 2nd mod (Kaytie, Misfit and many others have the list of which skills and which mods) Max/AR/Life, Max/Ar, Max/Life, AR/Life charms ---> 3/20/20 sc was selling for no less than 15 Ist in USW SC. 20 dext Raven with 200+ AR ---> 20/250 was selling for no less than 4 Ist. A matching pair of SoJ sell more than non-matching ones. P Wisp > Regards- > Mark > > Bongo-Fury > If blue (i.e. single mod), they are probably not worth much. IIRC in > SC, 1 to 4 of these went for a Lem. They arew worth more in HC because of the gear loss. Not all duelers/PKs have a looter available, so a lot more gear is lost. >> +15 life small charms, L15 req > > If HC is equivalent to SC, only ones with +15 life are tradeable as LLD > items. +14 has no value (unless it has a useful 2nd mod); +16 has no > value because at +16 the level req is much higher. Charms are MUCH more valuable in HC since they can never be looted. Regards- Mark Bongo-Fury |
