I am currently on Act 2 and completely cleared out both the Maggot Lair and the Claw Viper Temple and I still have not found the Headpiece for the Horadric Staff. I actually cleared them both out twice now to be sure. Definitely found the room with the giant maggot. Definitely found the lower room of the Claw Viper Temple with the raised area with steps. I am not recalling now what exactly I got when I first cleared these but now when I loot the reward chest and altar just gold or regular loot come out. I have scoured my stash inventory to make sure I haven’t overlooked it. Headpiece just isnt there and I believe I am stuck?
Are you wearing the headpiece? It does double as an Amulet …
That would have been funny. But nope. I am wearing just a regular blue magic amulet.
I can’t be the only one to who this happened to. And these items are not sellable so I could not have lost it.
UPDATE:
Well oddly enough the third time is the charm apparently. I decided to once more clear out the Claw Viper Temple and loot the altar in the second level of it and this time the horadric amulet headpiece dropped from it. Definitely seems to be some kind of bug here.
