OK, there has to be something wrong with this...

Best item Diablo drops is a throwing nice with 22 charges of lower resist

Corrupter of Souls (Named Venom Lord) drops the Stone of Jordan

Heh, not that I am complaining of course

On Hell, with +44% chance to get Magical Items, Baal dropped a Steel Scythe, and a Shimmering Large Shield (Yes, a Large Shield, like 10 Defense, and +4 to all resistances).

He also dropped 2000 gold...

That made me mad.

The Stone of Jordan
Unique Ring

+1 to all Skill Levels
+25% Maximum Mana
+20 Mana
Adds 1 --> 12 Lightning damage


I think adding 20 mana on top of 25% more is a bit overkill though

Pretty sure -33 life drain would be 5 1/2 life per second. And yes, that DOES make a difference. In one minute, you would lose 330 life.

"He lets the last Hungarian go, and he goes running. He waits until his wife and kids are in the ground and he goes after the rest of the mob. He kills their kids, he kills their wives, he kills their parents and their parents' friends. He burns down the houses they grew up in and the stores they work in, he kills people that owe them money. And like that he was gone. Underground. No one has ever seen him again. He becomes a myth, a spook story that criminals tell their kids at night. 'If you rat on your pop, Keyser Soze will get you.' And nobody really ever believes." - Roger 'Verbal' Kint, The Usual Suspects

Losing life is slower then gaining. -11HP = 1 life per second, +6HP = 1 life per second.

Tat comes right off Diabloii.net, so I am a tad inclined to believe it

But with that ring you could free up some other equipment for more AC, and most importantly, some Replensigh life gear to counterout the Constrictor

Having 90% Resist all would help so much

I used that thing constantly in Diablo 1, I hope I get one in D2X

With 90 resist all you would be nearly invulnerable to magic damage if you could get items of absorb magic, then only bone spells could hurt you.
constricting ring is clvl 96 so will be a pain to equip

baal was disappointingly easy

I was starting to get real;ly scared when he initially started summoning his 'destruction's minions' but he was way not as hard

oh. also.

if you use any type of pets on a boss monster (Baal/Diablo/Mephisto/Duriel/Andariel) they drop less now. Blizz put that in with the 1.08 patch :/

I think they'll get their value back (the huge value they had before the unique rings secret had been revealed) in the expansion though...

Since there are now 2 recipies that require SOJ's for the cube, they'll soon get used up and become valuable again. (I think we're talking 10 perfect skull for one SOJ.)

Rare jewels are going to be going for a high price as well.

it used to work like this:

If you didnt have a Nagelring and a unique ring was called for, ya got a nagelring.

if you had a nagelring, it made a manald heal. if you had manald heal and nagelring it made an SOJ.

if you had all three, it made a rare ring.

that was nuked out in the xpack tho
