Hi there I would love to talk about a specific bug that really ruin the LLD comunauty, I’m talking here about the level requirement being pushed up when you socket something into an upgraded item. Example I traded a lot of high runes to buy myself a perfect defence upgraded swordback hold shield, the upgraded version end being level 30 witch is Completely normal since the new base is level 25 requirement and we add +5 to level requirement because of the upgrade witch put us to level 30, but what isn’t normal is that when I put a shael (level 29 req) under level 30, into the shield the shield turn out from level 30 to level 37,so I basically just wasted all my runes for an item I just can’t use anymore, I talked about this with the LLD comunauty and they explained me that if I wanted the shield to be level 30 with the shael in it I must socket the shield put shael in the shield then after upgrade the shield and it will remain level 30, but doing so will cost like 1000000 high runes because of all the Sockets I must pay + every roll that don’t end perfect are 100% wasted, same happen with other items, I bought a perfe t upd twitchthrow armor and socket it then puted a 100% perfect jewel in it and that jewel literally costed me 40 jahs just to see it Completely ruined now I just feel like uninstalling the game since I cant afford any other gear to replace those 2. I trully Think that this bug should be fixed since its trully ruin some really expansive items
You missed the hidden effects of the upgrade recipies. Upgrading to exceptional adds a hidden + 5 to lvl req. Upgrading to elite adds another hidden + 7. Therefore a twice upgraded item has a hidden +12 lvl req. Both are well documented since introduction; check The Arreat Summit.
Nope. Upgraded once lvl req rises to 30 + an extra 5 from the upgrade recipe so lvl req is 35.
Yet why you’d see 37 instead of 35 i can’t tell.
Upgraded once it’s the same as with swordback hold: lvl req is 35.
Your wrong because before I put the jewel and rune into them they both were level 30 witch is level 25 from the base themself (barbed shield) if you add the level 5 it turn into level 30,it was already calculated, what’s wrong is that the level gone up AFTER I puted something into the socket
Oh ..
Aye, the stats of unique on the Summit already include these added lvl reqs .. it’s with Rares and Set this is an issue ..
