With the delay between entering/exiting portals it makes your way effective (with the way you can reroll and infinite gamble items). What i used to do before d2r is i make an assassin and gear her up. Then i strip her, so that she has over 79 strenght and under 79 dex (or the other way around). That way, when i enter the trade window i see the claws that are red (and i cant use), and i KNOW they are greater or runic talons (because greater require 79 str/dex and runic require 115 str/dex). So, without the delay when using portals you can farm claws pretty quick. Still a gamble, but with burst of speed you can do 10-12 runs a minute through the portal
YO! Thanks for this. I spent BILLIONS gambling coronets this league and found complete fuckall. I watched this video, gambled about 10 million in greater talons and got a somewhat respectable spider claw. Cruel+ fools+ 40IAS+ 8LL+ 2LS Greater Talons

Waste of time and gold. Don’t do it. Lol this only really works for off hand if your lucky for 3trap/2-3LS. Anything else waste of time and gold. Better off with the portal
cooley i just wanna say thank you, followed your advice and stopped gambling circlets and after not even 10m gold I got 6ls GTs and even two sockets in it:)
Sorry man, I’ve sold it already a couple of months ago. Are they still worth loads? I thought due to 2.4 and the plague rw, claws aren’t the best thing to gamble anymore
One thing to note, while gf barb is cheap, you will spend much more than 50 fg on the optimal merc gear and lem runes if trying to build this character first. The gold gcs cost a good bit around season start as well. Sweet vid!
IMO the most expensive thing was a good tomb reaver and the lems. everything else was dirt cheap. i have like 0 WC/gold find charms on my barb and pull 500-600k/run with 4600 life and have never died with him. Really not needed at all. My merc only dies when they have conviction aura, in which case i just skip that run
i think the main difference back in LoD between anya vs gamble was... with anya you can check for claws 24/7 :P and that's hard to beat. the Loading screen was also minimal. and Gamble in LoD was horrible due to having to refresh Gheed by closing screen and re-opening it again and the Claws would not be on the purchase screen
If we can use plague on claws it will make a seriously op off hand weapon for hybrid sins. Get a 3+ LS or venom base, socket with plague. You then have 5+ LS/venom claw, if you proc lower res traps will melt everyone, high + skills from the claw, open wounds for ww, - psn res for venom.
I'm pretty sure - poison res doesn't work with venom as it's not technically considered poison resistance that's why it's highly effective in pvp and would be op
Hey thanks for the tip! After gambling for like two weeks I got a blue GT with +3 Traps and +3 LS. Larzuk was kind enough to give me 2 sockets on it, so I'll probably put 15ias/mana jewels on it :D
Thank you for this video! I always feel like I'm wasting soooo much time going in/out of that red portal hoping for some GG claws. Not only does your way allow us to target specific claws, we also potentially get GG drops/runes from trav runs while gathering gold. Overall I think anyway you spin it you way is just a way better way to spend your time.
Early game the portal method is still better , well , for the players who actually genuinely play it anyway and don't throw money at every season to feel powerfull ;) Can clearly see most people on those vids are Resurected players and not old D2 fans tho , but nice to see the game having a second life. We only had to wait what ? 16 years for new runewords ? Blizzard at it s best lol

U are amazing. Respecced my barb for gold find today after seeing the video and I gambled a +2 assassin +3lightning sentry greater talon and it rolled 2soc! Thanks so much😁
Saying that all other type of claws is useless is based on the fact that you are equiping a Spirit in the off-hand. If you're not PvPing and/or don't have Enigma, you get way better damage if you equip 2 claws with +5/6 to LS, and the second doesn't need IAS nor to be a precise claw type because its attack speed doesn't matter in the slightest. Of course you lose on other QoL stuff without Spirit (such as mana and 3 res) but you also can put less points into STR and put them into VIT instead. Just something to keep in mind if you find a really good none-GT/RT trap claw.
I've been saying this since the changes to gambling in D2R in addition to the longer loading screens (and lack of shop bots)! Thank you!!! Hopefully this gets word out and people start doing this, I want some good claws for less than 50k+ per lol
Leaking all the secrets ! I've been gambling for a few weeks on these and so far the best I found was a rare 1 sin / 3 LS claw with other minor mods. I'll keep going at it :D
when i came back to d2 after years of not playing this is what i first started to do. there are a few other items that can be worth some easy fg like 3/20 ias java gloves 3os 40 life helms 6 venom claws 24 fhr 4 socket armors and a few more.
Great tips ! Was just wondering from your previous video you mentioned that chaos runeword should be in the slowest claws suwayyah because they are the hardest hitting ? Why not runic talons like ur recommending here ? Or the offhand weapon should be blade or runic talons, primary doesn't matter ?

Ive got a GF/MF travincal WW barbarian, and it is exceptional as far as GF is concerned. My stumbling block is, not knowing all of which magic/rare items I should ALWAYS pick up and ID. For example- I know i should be checking for +5 Lighning Sentry talons, 30frw 3os diadems, +6 jav weapons etc etc but I really wish i had a comprehensive list of magic/rare items I should always ID.

seasoned shopper here. if you manage to check anya 24/7 with the current rate of Anya refresh (12 sec loading screen in and out + 3-5 sec check the claws tab), it could take you anywhere form 1 week to 2 weeks to find a GG claws, maybe more, again, RNG is a pain in the butt. I read old D2 literature somwhere, it said to get a +5 LS claws, the chance is 1 / 68,000 claws seen or something like that ?
actually I shopped a 5ls 2os 1mb GT at anya (really early) when d2r was out at anya. sold it for about 14k fg back then - don't really know how much time it did, guess about 20-40hours (always did 1-2 hours before stopping to play..). in my opinion there is a better strategy than gambling: 1. get an assassin lvl 89+ preferable 92+ 2. get less than 79 strength or dex so gts are marked red while trading with anya - so it takes just 1 click to determine if there is prolly something interesting 3. get all the speed and cost reduction you can get and run back an forth for hours and pray to rnjesus.
@@horstschlemmer5092 doesnt destroy it better than bots, plus some people dont have the time to get gear, easier, ive seen both ways and jsp is a great OPTION, you will never get the best gear unless your super lucky with out jsp
@@horstschlemmer5092 this is why I generally play self found or trade amongst 1 or 2 friends that play online. If I just bought everything I wouldn't be playing the game for as long as I have. Finding valuable items or runes is half the fun in D2
This is a really good method indeed, but it requires a little more knowlegde than the anya method. From anya there's only just a handful of useful claw variants that can spawn. But when you gamble, you can get every single variety of good claws (except ofcourse from the ethereal, they cant spawn ethereal). Which I guess makes it harder for new players to know what they just gambled. They're however plenty of guides and threads on jsp that could educate you on which ones are the most sought after. Good video btw!
Is that the best option for Trap sins even for PvE? I always play on Hardcore and I wonder if it is worth the effort to do all that on a mod where most people dont duel, just PvE
Just thought I would let you know that Blade Talons can 100% have skills on them. Ref. time 6:30 I have blade talons with 3 to traps and 45 max dmg. This has always been possible.
So in OG d2 I heard character lvl97+ had a better chance for the +5 or +6 bases. Any truth to this? Does it extend to d2r? Wish you would have touched on this.
Isn’t there a better way to shop the claws by not gambling? For instance you need the proper level assassin (94 I think?) with the correct amount of dex / str equipped to where only greater or runic talons show up red (can’t equip) in Anya’s screen. It would save time mousing over everything, just have to look at the claws you can’t equip
@@fathead1616 I mean is it though? Gotta factor in trav runs on your barb to get gold.. find the right claw on the gamble screen and buy/ resell vs just mousing over 1-2 claws
ive gambled 20+ full stashes and i found one 3 traps 1 to lightning sentry 1 to charged bolt sentry. The 40 ias is very minmax, hardly a do or die stat. The disappointment you can't gamble ethclaws. You can only get best in slot for trapsin. I rolled trophy meme claw for Spidersin.
I doubt gambling odds really beat out Anya shopping tbh, unless you're indeed looking for rares specifically. First you want to use exclusively an Assassin to shop claws at Anya, and then moreover distribute stat points so that only exceptional/elite claws appear red (b/c they cannot be used due to lacking stats). That way you scan only potential +5/+6 claws way faster than what you demonstrated in the beginning of the vid. Shopping with non-Sin chars is infinitely more annoying and slower just because you have to check every claw.
Your clueless. Anya takes 1 minute to maybe have 3 GT or runic even show up. Gamble and 50% of all gambles will be that. And in 1 minute? 40 claws ...if i sell back or 60 if i drop on the ground
@@TC-rw1kf Right.. and farming gold takes 0 time in your world? Also gambling yields far less than 50% GT/RT. I’m not saying it’s bad, but I’d only do it for rares to best magic ones for top end stuff. Certainly not for blue +5/6 claws which mind you can always get 2os.. you need that to roll on rates. I’ve shopped half a dozen magic +5/6 from anya and only a single +5 via gambling with no other mods and sockets.
what is decent though? I just tried with 1.5mill gold...got a Rare GT with +1 skill level...+2lightning sentry..and a bunch of other stats that i take it mean nothing. I don't have a trapsin yet, but i assume they're not actually using physical dmg at all...so LL, ML and ED mean nothing.
And to think someone told me that a +3 jav skill, 40 ias, 30 edamage matriarchal javelin was worth nothing. It wasn't on the site mentioned in the video, but I'm glad i checked on other sites before feeding charsi. Finding a buyer is the real problem these days tho.
waste of gold. I remember seeing a break down somewhere of how many gambles it would take to get a JMoD. It was eye-watering. I don't remember exactly what the number was, but it was hundreds of thousands of gambles.
Best way to do it is with assain have 69 dex and just look at the ones that are red becouse rest cannot have + normal skills like death sentry or ligth sentry but Still extremly rare
With the delay between entering/exiting portals it makes your way effective (with the way you can reroll and infinite gamble items). What i used to do before d2r is i make an assassin and gear her up. Then i strip her, so that she has over 79 strenght and under 79 dex (or the other way around).

trap laying speed is only calculated by your main hand claw, so non gt or rt claws still have a use for off hand
No, it combines both claw's base speeds to make the average weapon speed modifier (AWSM). +IAS counts on every piece of gear except your off-hand.
So what exactly is the claw you're looking for here? +3 lighting sentry, +2 all ass skills, 30% IAS?
Hi , thanks for vids, that's works with Jmod ?
This is a really good method indeed, but it requires a little more knowlegde than the anya method. From anya there's only just a handful of useful claw variants that can spawn.
But when you gamble, you can get every single variety of good claws (except ofcourse from the ethereal, they cant spawn ethereal). Which I guess makes it harder for new players to know what they just gambled.
They're however plenty of guides and threads on jsp that could educate you on which ones are the most sought after.

ive gambled 20+ full stashes and i found one 3 traps 1 to lightning sentry 1 to charged bolt sentry. The 40 ias is very minmax, hardly a do or die stat. The disappointment you can't gamble ethclaws. You can only get best in slot for trapsin. I rolled trophy meme claw for Spidersin.
I managed to shop a 2sin/3ls/30ias GT, socketed it and it got 1os. Best one I've gotten from shopping anya and gambling for claws so far.
Hey do you sell it ?
@@orkunlocos1475 No, sorry. It's staying on my trapsin forever or until I get an even better claw which is astronomically unlikely.
I doubt gambling odds really beat out Anya shopping tbh, unless you're indeed looking for rares specifically. First you want to use exclusively an Assassin to shop claws at Anya, and then moreover distribute stat points so that only exceptional/elite claws appear red (b/c they cannot be used due to lacking stats). That way you scan only potential +5/+6 claws way faster than what you demonstrated in the beginning of the vid. Shopping with non-Sin chars is infinitely more annoying and slower just because you have to check every claw.
Your clueless. Anya takes 1 minute to maybe have 3 GT or runic even show up. Gamble and 50% of all gambles will be that. And in 1 minute? 40 claws ...if i sell back or 60 if i drop on the ground
@@TC-rw1kf Right.. and farming gold takes 0 time in your world? Also gambling yields far less than 50% GT/RT. I’m not saying it’s bad, but I’d only do it for rares to best magic ones for top end stuff. Certainly not for blue +5/6 claws which mind you can always get 2os.. you need that to roll on rates. I’ve shopped half a dozen magic +5/6 from anya and only a single +5 via gambling with no other mods and sockets.
every 10 claws 1 will be rare 100%, remember to have space to shop them all.
Imagine a world where we could gamble jewels T.T
Running in and out of a portal to check vs leveling/ gearing a gf barb and Running trav 30 times a day...
would have been nice if Coooley also demonstrated gambling at least one decent claw...
It’s like a .000595% chance
what is decent though? I just tried with 1.5mill gold...got a Rare GT with +1 skill level...+2lightning sentry..and a bunch of other stats that i take it mean nothing. I don't have a trapsin yet, but i assume they're not actually using physical dmg at all...so LL, ML and ED mean nothing.
@@Badkitty24 I assume "decent" would be something that approaches at least somewhat the claws Coooley demonstrates at the beginning of the vid.
Now your friends claws are worth 500fg. Grats!
I usually gamble cornets but claws are much cheaper might start doing this i have found some solid claws from anya's shop tho lol
Are you 100% sure that Ber rune is pronounced BEAR? I'm not hating just curious if I have been pronouncing it wrong for the last 20 years
you just beat a dead horse over and over for 4 mins with no point moved towards yet....clean up the bs parts in the videos i love your content.
I'm new to assassin builds but how are these magic claws any better than end game rune words?
Been playing d2 since early 05. I have never once found ANY claw in this list.
What was that 3 sock claw at the beginning of the video?
Btw those claws that has 3socket with 40AS are good for bear sins. rip.
And to think someone told me that a +3 jav skill, 40 ias, 30 edamage matriarchal javelin was worth nothing. It wasn't on the site mentioned in the video, but I'm glad i checked on other sites before feeding charsi. Finding a buyer is the real problem these days tho.
fantastic tutorial! gonna try that.out, thanks!
I'm completely lost on how "trading" works in D2. Like is it just go into chat and find ppl? is there a list on currency? or whatever?
Hey question, I have a set of +3 traps, +3 LS , 2os greater claws on NL PC, anyideas what they might be worth?
what clvl is optimal for gambling one ?
I’ve been looking for a magic full helm with one or two socket’s. Two sock is better. Can’t find one!
If you did get a not elite version with +5 LS and 40 ias couldn't u just upgrade them to greater or runic talons.
Do you think this is a good way to try to farm something like a jmod or jewelers archon of the whale or something like that? Or waste of gold?
waste of gold. I remember seeing a break down somewhere of how many gambles it would take to get a JMoD. It was eye-watering. I don't remember exactly what the number was, but it was hundreds of thousands of gambles.
What would blue greater talons 2 to assasin skills 3 to lighting sentry and 2 os be worth in fg
What is the min level requirement to gamble these?
30k claw? I assume it's 2/3/40/2 os. Big difference from simple 5ls claw
I also got one of my claws to have 11 Charges of enchant on it
30,000fg is closer to 30 Ber runes right now
He literally said that that the 30kfg trade was back in november where 1 Ber was 3kfg...
Still it's good to note current price for those reading the comments today to have an idea.
great video !
Best way to do it is with assain have 69 dex and just look at the ones that are red becouse rest cannot have + normal skills like death sentry or ligth sentry but Still extremly rare
can they be bought from nightmare though?
Ok, I got 3os +3 death sentry, +3 light sentry runic talons. Are they worth anything?
Hey do you sell it ?
@@orkunlocos1475 yes it’s sold
You earned a liked!
Feel like you have a way better chance of gambling a gg rare ring than a claw
Is someone aware of a spreadsheet or anything like that, with the different bases worth picking up and what stats on them to look for?
You can be faster using the corretto character and stats setup...
