70 million xp left to go ...
Turns out I can make decent progress when I have two days a week off work.
I opened the week with a pair of Mal Runes:
The Mal Runes dropped within an hour of each other (and in the same wing of CS too) ... which is really weird because they are the
only Mal Runes that have dropped for me since last November when I cubed all my Mal Runes and higher to make a CTA. I had expected to recoup some of those Mals and Ists as I leveled this character but up until this there'd been no luck. Anyhow, now I'm in position to make my dual Oath eBerserker Axes without having to resort to cubing Um Runes!
My other big drops were:
Lion Branded Grand Charm of Vita
Keep in Inventory to Gain Bonus
Required Level: 69
Item Version: 1.10+ Expansion
Item Level: 85
Fingerprint: 0x7e876f8e
+40 to Life
+1 to Combat Skills (Paladin Only)
Obviously a totally godly charm for a Hammerdin to find. I can only imagine that price that it would have commanded back in the 1.11 days ... As you can see it immediately replaced one of the PCombat skillers that I was using (it had +11 to Life ... not bad ... but nothing like the eye candy that is this thing)!
Then there was:
Wisp Projector
Ring
Required Level: 76
Item Version: 1.10+ Expansion
Item Level: 94
Fingerprint: 0x1f8bbbba
15% Better Chance of Getting Magic Items
14% Lightning Absorb
10% Chance to cast Level 16 Lightning on striking
Level 5 Heart of Wolverine (4/13 Charges)
Level 7 Spirit of Barbs (11/11 Charges)
Level 2 Oak Sage (2/15 Charges)
Cut from the hand of Diablo himself! Middle of the road stats but I'm still very happy. This was the last piece of s/u jewelry that I hadn't found since my July restart.
(Sorry for the boring images, but I obviously didn't know what I had with the unique ring and grand charm until I got to town.)
Happy hunting everyone!
