Better hope they keep pvp in its current form then. Signs point to that they will, which is great, but if they nerf it then half of this video goes out the window because the video itself is implicitly acknowledging that the thing most people pay most for is pvp builds.
@@ohaya1 it's a flat 25 reduced from each and every attack that deals damage. Nihlathak's pet vipers do a small amount of Physical damage tacked onto each frame of Poison damage (this was initially a 'bug' that quickly became a 'working as intended feature'). ~25idr will negate the vast bulk of that damage. From memory, I used to do Nihlathak runs with ~45idr on a kick/trap'sin and I could completely ignore the Vipers. Integer Damage Reduction is far more powerful than people think.
This video is the best I've watched thus far. It has NO outdated information, nor any incorrect information as far as I can see. And yes. So many players are green/gold blind and neglect what the item level of the magic item they didn't pick up is/was. For single player, time travelers (playing old patches) like me, no magic item can ever be best in slot though. 1.07 or 1.08 crafted items always come out on top. Except for charms, which can only be magical quality in SP.
Man oh man do I miss the CCBQ days of BvB duelings. had one of thse 3os as well. 6/40Javs got last season my first time self found pretty dope after over 20years playing lol
Hi, nice video. Veteran player here, from Argentina. today i've found a magic amulet 18 to all res, damage reduced by 23. I was so happy (my gear sucks at the moment and i dont use bot or jsp). Greetings and i love your channel.
Dude! After 20 years of grinding d2 on battlenet You finally make the videos that sorta systematize and utterly complete my (in my opinion) not too shallow knowledge. I love it! Thats exactly the content I was after for a loooong time..... I wish I could subscribe twice here to appreciate your effort and knowledge that u share!
@@brad4058 Lol, i traded a lot in this game and picked up a windforce for some crap items and gifted it to a friend who loved amazon. One Soj was worth more than a couple of windforces. I literally could get a shit ton of unique items for a soj. I dont know when the good ol days were for you but mine were there where duping was rare and not even well known.
@@SaithMasu12 I came in around 1.07 after LoD was released. .08 windforces were top tier bows by then and that's with the 40/15 jewels and 100 pdsc charms. The only duping during that time was SoJs so 40 sojs would've netted you a windforce or grandfather. Then around .09 that's when things went to shit with the occy rings and white rings. Then Hex Charms became a thing and that's when I quit the game.
@@brad4058 Seems like you did play early, okay. Thats arround the timeframr i played as well. It ust so strange though. 40 Sojs is just unthinkable. It would take you forever Andi runs to get there. I could literally trade 4-5 high uniques for 1 Soj. A windforce i picked up on the side. Strange indeed.
@@SaithMasu12 That's because people duped SoJs so much back then that it was literally just passed around. But, I remember my first time finding an SoJ myself and I was excited cuz I thought it'd be another Nagelring or Ravenfrost
Awesome video :) Never found any of these. Closest I guess was multiple 3/xx/xx sometimes 18-19, but never 20 :) If I had to choose one that I'll find next - I'd want the 6/40 javelins
Back in the B-net D2 LoD servers i had one of the best sword known to date. A 199% cruel Colossus blade of haste 5 socked with Ohm, Ohm, Ohm, Shael, Shael. Many offers for trade on that blade, but it remained on my barb until i gave the accounts away. I also got insanely lucky with the smith enchantment on a barb helmet. +2 Barb skills. +2 All Warcry skill. +2 Battleorders skill. 2 socket And ontop of that, it was enchanted with mana and health % on hit... Both the sword and helmet was named after my first HC99 Barb using the Act5 quest to kill the necro. And i only played HC. I played waaay too much D2.
Very useful info! Thank you for this, and please do more like this for rare items. I'm also curious to understand the value of jewels more and what items they should be used in at high levels.
Your channel is awesome. I’ve been playing d2 off and on since 7th grade. Definitely one of the best games OF ALL TIME! Keep up the good work! Love the quality D2 content!!!!
Man I just recently found your channel, and I've been playing D2 for 15ish years. Feels like I'm learning every time i watch you video's. Just wanna say; great content, very informative and thanks for making these awesome videos in preparation for D2 Resurrected. Cheers!
God, I remember for a while the 32020 was like the "gold standard" for trading. I had so many and traded so many that it was painfully obvious only a few, if any, were legit, and it was wild that the market used them.
@@tbpopje I cant wait for the trading to come back, I still have the muscle memory to gather all these extremely rare item for trade but now they are mostly worthless. I have a full mule of rare magic rings and ammy but nobody wants them anymore XD I even told someone I had a tele ammy and he didnt even believe me, I had to show him XD
two items i recommend every players always pick up especially in Hell difficulty. rare rings and rare circlets. always forever iso my 10fcr/20str/40life/Tri resist 70+resist(or dual resist+all resist(60+ resist total)) rings
To think that people back in the day were able to mix and match all these items and builds to certain character is amazing. UA-cam or forums/guides werent even a thing back then. So all folks who played D2 here, i salute you
@@pd.v6686 yeah man. Arreat summit has everything. Just go see the forum. I played since vanilla version. The expansion and runewords with bots killed the game.
@@pd.v6686 it’s been too long for me to remember but yea there have always been sites for games since free/cheap hosting. There’s way too many things to figure out in D2 alone.
For a lvl 9 hardcore pk chargerdin, a magic etheral vicious pike of self-repair, and hope you get 2 sockets from socket quest. Nice weapon to use for dueling and pking, 1 hit kills. Was using stuff like this back in version 08/09. When people still have bugged gear from 1.06. 40/15 and 3/20/20 are duelers items and been a staple for a long time, any item that is for dueling will have value. It comes down to that. 5all res 20 life small charms not as valuable as above, but still valuable. 15res/15ias jewels not sure if they are still a thing, has value in hc. Pestilent small charm of anthrax, not sure if they have value in this day and age, but they used to for additional tick damage.
Damn, man, I haven't played D2 in years, but I still watch your vids sometimes because they are so good. While I forgot most of the stuff, 3-20-20 charm definitely rang a bell, was such a currency in ladders back in the days, damn
I would like to thank you sir for this informative video, especially for new D2R player like me. Because of this video, I start pickup "blue" and hit a jackpot yesterday with magic jewel 40% 15%. sold it for good price at Traderie. My most expensive find so far after skiller grand charm with life%..
I'm still looking for the almost impossible helmet, after over a decade of hunting. Not even sure any of them ever spawned, honestly. It's TECHNICALLY possible, but I'll be damned. Echoing iLvl 60+ +3 Warcries +3 Shout (Tier 3 Skill) +3 Battle Orders (Tier 5 Skill) +3 War Cry (Tier 6 Skill) 2os
I remembered I imbue a plain diadem and gotten a 2 zon skill 2 soc with a bunch of life and 20% FRW. Suffice to say, it sat awhile but when I finally gotten a buyer, it literally made me quite set in gear for my sorc who was otherwise still running stealth and lore in the helmet lol.
+3 skill amulets are kinda cool. and magic wands for if ur using an iron golem. before u exit the game u put it on. you can find a wand with +3 to 4 diff golem summoning skills
most expensive magic items i've seen sold on like jsp & ebay back around 2006 were ethereal cruel zerkers of quickness & ethereal jmod both with the zod bug. pretty good list though, maybe only missing like 451 poison damage small charms.
5 spear and spirit necro heads with 2 OS. Never had one, but I remember these and the 4 spear/spirit Splendor heads being novelty items for the high damage necro.
I found a perfect 3/20/20 sc off hell baal in a public baal runs game last year,, and a gaen pelt of elephant with 3 nado and 2 hurricane,, i got 2 socs from larzuk,, these 2 are the best magic items in my years of playing :)
i did not comment on any of your videos yet but i should because yourvintroduction is dope and the informations given are insanely cool i cant wait for d2r im playing solo d1 atm on a legit rogue no dupe allowed i wish to play with some of you when d2r come out peace bro ! cya in sanctuary!
I was looking for 6/40 jav's anywhere. I couldn't even find an old post on d2jsp for them, though I was sure I had saw one before. The highest I could find were 5/40's. Super rare.
I once found a perfect blue 15% all rez 25%MF ring and ever since picked up all magic rings that drop in hell still haven't found anything close to that again and might not ever but still keep looting them 👍
I saw a video where some looked at the habits of the top players. What he found was they skipped picking up just about everything. The time it took to grab anything but the very best would slow their earnings.
this a great video. i still grab all magic rings but there were a lot of items i didnt know about in this video. thanks cooley favorite blue item: ring of the apprentice, of course :)
Them damaged reduced items have always been overlooked. We tested them out years ago on an assassin and you can basically negate all damage from pve / PvP. Damage is obviously not as high but it was certainly an alternative way of playing
That was always my most favorite aspect of D2. Nothing better than tping back to town to id your shit and find a great item that carries you through the next act.
ever since I got my hands on the Jamella Editor, I felt MF is just as the same as playing a slot machine at the casino. Don't know if that also occur to you. I've since lost interest in MFing. Love your video. Keep up the good work !
Rings / medium elite armors / orbs / amazon javelins / greater talons / druid/barb helmets / grand charms / circlets / jevels Gotta pick up those. Maybe we get loot filter in ressurection :P But u gotta remember that tons of value of this items comes from simply community not picking 99% of them The more secret knowledge is around the less valuable those will be despite how rare they are
6 bone spear nec heads are gg and in the same build I use a 20fcr 6 bone spear wand. With mana after kill jewels they are in my opinion better than white / spirit combo if your not going for max fcr
This video brings back some memories, back in the 1.09 days I found two godly items. One was a perfect Cruel Eth Balrog Spear of Evisceration, it was the best weapon I've ever had for a Jabzon. Second was a rare eth balrog blade. This was before rare items could roll over 200% ED. It rolled perfect ED, repair over time, had 2 slots, and had damage added on top of it, had another mod I can't remember. I really wish I didn't let my accounts expire when I stopped playing, I legitimately miss that sword, although the new rare rolls kinda made it obsolete. I was filthy rich in 09, then became a filth peasant when .10 hit lmao, I had mostly bugged/hacked items.
Oh man the Cruel Colossus Blades... I remember I had a bot that would auto check and reset Larzuck... I would start it, go to bed, get up, go to class (college) work out, shower, get dinner, come back to my dorm room expecting several good weapons because so much time had passed and always be disappointed.
@Cooley you missed the Ethereal Cruel Claws of Evisceration (if i remember correctly), the max damage on those claws was insane. I had 1 pair back in the day.
Man that circlet of life everlasting is Godly guess I gotta keep an eye out for them and magic items thanks! I'm not even sure what I would socket it with for an ES sorc, I guess 2 Sur for 10% Mana?
Had one in hc ladder. Sold it though. They definitely have demand. Might not be hrs like many other items introduced in this video but definitely worth quite a bit.
Two weeks ago I picked up a pair of 40mf rings on softcore ladder for 2 Ber runes each. We can hear in the video that "it is not necessarily worth much" (probably because some other items sell for dozens of Ber runes in comparison) but 2 Bers per ring isn't bad at all. If I wanted to farm one myself I'd do it by gambling rings with a gold-find barb.
My best charm found ever was a 42 life combat pally grand charm. Have had many 3 20 18. 3 18 20. My best on resurrection is 3 20 6mf and 45 life 14 All res grand.
Curious why JSTOC didn’t make the list. A St with 158def/65ed/121ar/60life/4soc is worth significantly more than any other item listed and one with perfect stats like I listed is so rare I don’t think it’s ever been found across all realms. E/ I do enjoy the well put together d2 content though and appreciate your videos keep it up hopefully the new d2 works wonders for your channel I can tell you put in a lot of work!
Please make a video on The Horadric Malus Quest and all of the inner workings of character levels and item levels. also i've only ever been advised to Imbune Cirlets, diadems, tiars what other items are most advantageous to imbune? Thank you for the amazing content.
Atm on my plugy account I have found few nice blue items. My 3 best self found blue items are: - 3 fire 20 fcr circlet. But I need to put 2 socket on it. (finger crossed) - 3 socket 89 life circlet which is funny even if it's not that great either. - I found 1 perfect 3-20-20 small charm and few close to perfect but they are not perfect :P I think those nice blue item are amoung the most fun to identifie because you have 0 expectation. xD I pick up matriarchal jav / monarch shield / circlets on the ground very often. Even blue rings/amy once in a while when I know I'm going to talk to cain and there is still space in my cube. Most of my nice blue item are from gambling tho.
@@jameshaulenbeek5931 haha yea it make me laugh sometime to see how BAD it is and often with a high lvl requirement XD. I still keep all my 1 def small charm because those are so bad haha
Man, that life everlasting mod is a hard one to find! I've never gotten it on anything useful even when I did find an item with it. But yes, gone are the days of Cruel "XXX" of Evisceration/Quickness... for now... they might become popular again when Resurrected comes out.
Today I found a sorc orb with +3 lightning skills, +3 chain lightning, +2 nova, and +3 teleport. It had something else on it, but I forgot. It was "shocking" lol.
Back in the days I had a 2 zon skill 2 socket 30 frw strength dex circlet with two 40/15 And a cruel bow of evisceration + max damage 2 socket hitting 7fps .
Rare circlet with 25+ strength 20+ all resists +10 attack speed +2 Barb Skills +faster walk ... My level 99 barb's best helm, it's like nude Arreats. Also crafted amulet and gloves. Also crushing blow builds wreck all.
I feel like the Cruel Fanged Knife of Quickness is all you missed...then again you did mention Cruels of Quickness so I guess you kinda touched on it...fury druid fan here 99white99 for anyone that used to use the old forums...I just played the resurrected beta last night
I miss 1.09 with my Rosebranded Phase Blade of Quickness with 2x Ber (which, iirc, isn't possible to roll anymore) and palapk duels with Cruel Myth Sword of Quickness/Evis
I can't wait to start no life farming these things in D2R. No game has ever given me the same satisfaction of Item farming that D2 did
Game was ahead of its time in that regard!
Better hope they keep pvp in its current form then. Signs point to that they will, which is great, but if they nerf it then half of this video goes out the window because the video itself is implicitly acknowledging that the thing most people pay most for is pvp builds.
@@Coooley Yeah 20+ years ahead of it's time lol pretty crazy.
The feeling of seeing a hr drop is better then any drugs on earth
Lmao I can't wait to start making cash lmao use to make least grand a week in item sales back in the 00s fat fingers correction
This is why I love this game - it's 21 years old and I am still learning new things to this day! Great video :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
It’s like a Borderlands game. Always something to hunt for.
In addition to PVP, life everlasting mode is great if you are doing nilathak runs, it can negate the bugged damage from vipers there
ssshhhh, don't give away the secrets.....
Is the damage reduced by 25 or is it 25% ?
@@ohaya1 it's a flat 25 reduced from each and every attack that deals damage.
Nihlathak's pet vipers do a small amount of Physical damage tacked onto each frame of Poison damage (this was initially a 'bug' that quickly became a 'working as intended feature'). ~25idr will negate the vast bulk of that damage. From memory, I used to do Nihlathak runs with ~45idr on a kick/trap'sin and I could completely ignore the Vipers.
Integer Damage Reduction is far more powerful than people think.
@@ohaya1 -25 damage per frame not %

hey.. bots fill up.. space is an issue nothing is rare for a bot
Visionary’s bone helm of balance. Ward shield can be 4 sockets. Point guard of quick can be great for a Druid or nec
this a great video. i still grab all magic rings but there were a lot of items i didnt know about in this video. thanks cooley
favorite blue item: ring of the apprentice, of course :)
Still one of the best early game rings! Thanks for watching, man!
Them damaged reduced items have always been overlooked. We tested them out years ago on an assassin and you can basically negate all damage from pve / PvP. Damage is obviously not as high but it was certainly an alternative way of playing
i've treasured them from day 1.. -25 dmage 3 skill helm ammy then i start adding sols you can ignore pvm arrows
Nope. 50% Dr was cap. And didn't do anything in pve barely.
@@joshuaoconnor4976 There is no integer DR cap no one is talking about % dmg reduction.
I love your videos brother man. Very well put together. Thanks for what you do.
That was always my most favorite aspect of D2. Nothing better than tping back to town to id your shit and find a great item that carries you through the next act.
I’m keep doing it. Extra two blocks from not carrying red book.
Heyyy video like always - super! Video from 8:36 till the end I have these two tiaras!!
ever since I got my hands on the Jamella Editor, I felt MF is just as the same as playing a slot machine at the casino.
Don't know if that also occur to you. I've since lost interest in MFing.
Love your video. Keep up the good work !
Rings / medium elite armors / orbs / amazon javelins / greater talons / druid/barb helmets / grand charms / circlets / jevels
Gotta pick up those.
Maybe we get loot filter in ressurection :P
But u gotta remember that tons of value of this items comes from simply community not picking 99% of them
The more secret knowledge is around the less valuable those will be despite how rare they are
I used to have a 3 pnb 2 os wand that had 3 nova 3 poison explosion and 3 poison dagger... absolutely op poison wand
deathweb my preference
6 bone spear nec heads are gg and in the same build I use a 20fcr 6 bone spear wand. With mana after kill jewels they are in my opinion better than white / spirit combo if your not going for max fcr
This was a flash back to when I was 14 and rushing peoples accounts to 94 for forum gold. The good ol days.
This video brings back some memories, back in the 1.09 days I found two godly items. One was a perfect Cruel Eth Balrog Spear of Evisceration, it was the best weapon I've ever had for a Jabzon. Second was a rare eth balrog blade. This was before rare items could roll over 200% ED. It rolled perfect ED, repair over time, had 2 slots, and had damage added on top of it, had another mod I can't remember. I really wish I didn't let my accounts expire when I stopped playing, I legitimately miss that sword, although the new rare rolls kinda made it obsolete.
I was filthy rich in 09, then became a filth peasant when .10 hit lmao, I had mostly bugged/hacked items.
Magic 2s 45str bo club, super rare and makes str glitching as a lvl 95+ barb using eni in GH waay easier/better
Oh man the Cruel Colossus Blades... I remember I had a bot that would auto check and reset Larzuck... I would start it, go to bed, get up, go to class (college) work out, shower, get dinner, come back to my dorm room expecting several good weapons because so much time had passed and always be disappointed.
love seeing this sorts of videos!
@Cooley you missed the Ethereal Cruel Claws of Evisceration (if i remember correctly), the max damage on those claws was insane. I had 1 pair back in the day.
Many hours of my life spent searching for some of these..
you better not visit a casino
Man that circlet of life everlasting is Godly guess I gotta keep an eye out for them and magic items thanks! I'm not even sure what I would socket it with for an ES sorc, I guess 2 Sur for 10% Mana?
Dexterity/Strength jewels, honestly. Bump up that max block!
Ahhh so nice to from Llamas, to DBrunski and then voila! New video from Coooley awww yeah!
That is the first time I see a screenshot of a 40mf ring.
Still trying to find a 35+ ring
Had one in hc ladder. Sold it though. They definitely have demand. Might not be hrs like many other items introduced in this video but definitely worth quite a bit.
The 40 mf ring is useable at LVL 31. So it's not useless for a character farming in lower levels
@@personalaccount2169 What are you trying to say? 40mf ring is good for any mf character that can spare a ring spot.
Two weeks ago I picked up a pair of 40mf rings on softcore ladder for 2 Ber runes each. We can hear in the video that "it is not necessarily worth much" (probably because some other items sell for dozens of Ber runes in comparison) but 2 Bers per ring isn't bad at all. If I wanted to farm one myself I'd do it by gambling rings with a gold-find barb.
How do you mention the enchant orb and leave out the 3light skills, 20fcr, 3lighting, 3 light mastery, 2os orb
My best charm found ever was a 42 life combat pally grand charm. Have had many 3 20 18. 3 18 20. My best on resurrection is 3 20 6mf and 45 life 14 All res grand.
love that you use jsp so you actually know wtf rare items are.
Curious why JSTOC didn’t make the list. A St with 158def/65ed/121ar/60life/4soc is worth significantly more than any other item listed and one with perfect stats like I listed is so rare I don’t think it’s ever been found across all realms.
E/ I do enjoy the well put together d2 content though and appreciate your videos keep it up hopefully the new d2 works wonders for your channel I can tell you put in a lot of work!
Great vid as always!
Please make a video on The Horadric Malus Quest and all of the inner workings of character levels and item levels. also i've only ever been advised to Imbune Cirlets, diadems, tiars what other items are most advantageous to imbune? Thank you for the amazing content.
we needed this video a long time ago !
good job
Atm on my plugy account I have found few nice blue items. My 3 best self found blue items are:
- 3 fire 20 fcr circlet. But I need to put 2 socket on it. (finger crossed)
- 3 socket 89 life circlet which is funny even if it's not that great either.
- I found 1 perfect 3-20-20 small charm and few close to perfect but they are not perfect :P
I think those nice blue item are amoung the most fun to identifie because you have 0 expectation. xD
I pick up matriarchal jav / monarch shield / circlets on the ground very often. Even blue rings/amy once in a while when I know I'm going to talk to cain and there is still space in my cube.
Most of my nice blue item are from gambling tho.
I always thought it was hilarious to find an item that rolled all the minimums
@@jameshaulenbeek5931 haha yea it make me laugh sometime to see how BAD it is and often with a high lvl requirement XD. I still keep all my 1 def small charm because those are so bad haha
Finally another person that appreciate the existence of magic items.
People miss half the fun
@@krumenmonsternomnomnom5041 I agree :P
I was searching for +6 LS talons at Anya and "accidentally" found a "Jewelers Ward Of Deflecting" in her offer. Best magic Item so far... :)
Nicely done! That shield is amazing
Man, that life everlasting mod is a hard one to find! I've never gotten it on anything useful even when I did find an item with it.
But yes, gone are the days of Cruel "XXX" of Evisceration/Quickness... for now... they might become popular again when Resurrected comes out.
Especially if they make it so we can get 3 sockets on them again! haha Bring back the nostalgia
@@Coooley yes!
Another big one you may have missed are the Paladin scepters with + skills and 5 open sockets.
those are white/grey and not magic
Plus 3 to fire kills/plus 3 to meteor/plus 3 to sorceress skills. It's insane with 2 sockets.
Today I found a sorc orb with +3 lightning skills, +3 chain lightning, +2 nova, and +3 teleport. It had something else on it, but I forgot. It was "shocking" lol.
i just realized how similar poe and diablo 2 was, back in diablo2, all we did is get the yellowest gear you find, I was 14 back then
Love this D2 content. Thanksss!
Back in the days I had a 2 zon skill 2 socket 30 frw strength dex circlet with two 40/15
And a cruel bow of evisceration + max damage 2 socket hitting 7fps .
Proud to be one of your first 10k subscribers. Extremely high quality videos, easy to tell how much work you put into these. Kudos!
I appreciate you! Thank you so much
Rare circlet with 25+ strength 20+ all resists +10 attack speed +2 Barb Skills +faster walk ... My level 99 barb's best helm, it's like nude Arreats. Also crafted amulet and gloves.
Also crushing blow builds wreck all.
yesterday i tradet a j mod and put 4 blue 5 5 light rbf in :) i love it with my javazone
I really like your videos. Thank you so much.
Nice video man
I feel like the Cruel Fanged Knife of Quickness is all you missed...then again you did mention Cruels of Quickness so I guess you kinda touched on it...fury druid fan here
99white99 for anyone that used to use the old forums...I just played the resurrected beta last night
magic items that gives skills from other classes (Teleport, Enchant, Telekinesis, Corpse Explosion, Any Summons, etc)
I miss 1.09 with my Rosebranded Phase Blade of Quickness with 2x Ber (which, iirc, isn't possible to roll anymore) and palapk duels with Cruel Myth Sword of Quickness/Evis
I love the plus 30 resist rings you can find early low lvl
