The 'Spirit' is willing (but the runes are weak) ACCOMPLISHED!!

I will copy this to the OP as well, as it could save someone a Zod down the line..

ATMA bugging armor doesn't work but as @thefranklin mentions a few posts up if you socket an eth piece of armor with a Zod in 1.07-1.09 and then unsocket it in 1.10a+ it remains indestructible. @Fruit tested it for me and this is 100% ATMA independent, that's just how Zod worked back then. Of course you would need a Zod in one of those old patches for it to work. Plus you can't socket Zod in 1.07-1.09 in anything which has the "+ to max Durability" modifier (like Baranar's Star) or it will break immediately. (not sure about +% enhanced Dura on superior items though)

This of course means that you will have to rack another eth Monarch in 1.08, socket it in 1.08-1.09 for 4os and then put a Zod in it in 1.08-1.09. Easy! I'm patiently awaiting results :p

Of course, unlike you, it's made on 2 separate 148def Monarchs.

And stopped rerolling after, like any other sane person. :ROFLMAO:

Thanks guys! This was a rough one. Glad its finally over.

@saracen85 - once you have multiple 148s, you gotta move on to superior. Once you have several of those, there is no other choice. It was. Inevitable.

@maxicek @Babyhell - madness will continue, but certainly not with 'Dream'. I believe I have a near perfect 'Insight' already, but that just wont do, right? So, @hackedagainanda make sure you save up those Ral/Sols!
 
Eleven months to roll your perfect ethereal Spirit monarch! How much longer did it take than what you initially expected it might?

I knew it would be hundreds of rolls. I had blown probably 300-500 on my previous rolls on 148 def and +15% superiors. Figured that I needed to keep trading/restocking rune supplies. And, if I had to do this without any trading, it would take a LOT longer..
