I lost my SOJ in a server crash on Saturday morning (I had found it 10 minutes before the crash).
It turns out that after that fall I closed the application and I got ready to leave the house and did not return until today, and when I entered the game I see my character and he does not have the ring anywhere. Please is a SOJ !! Help me plz !!
I have a screenshot to prove it
–Insert Michael Jackson eating popcorn gif here–
It’s gone. Rolled back. You won’t get it back.
I hope it never happens to you bro … and if it happens to you … I hope to be there …
Its long gone and you’re not getting it back. I feel your pain as I had a couple good drops as well.
Oof.
It sucks bigtime when that happens to any coveted item, but how 'bout this totally radical idea?
Find another one.
The one you lost ain’t the only one in existence. There ARE more out there.
Me too! I lost my soj too plz give me one too!
You obviously don’t know the drop rate of an SOJ.
Also, you’re missing the point entirely.
The drop rate hasn’t changed since he found the first one. He has just as much chance to find another.
I’m not missing any point. I acknowledged that losing an item to a rollback sucks.
All I’m saying is that you don’t need to lament like you’ll never see a SoJ again.
Just because they’re super rare doesn’t mean you are relegated to only have one for ever and ever. Play the game (that’s why you bought it); find another one.
He probably wont based on the drop rate.
Most have played a million hours and never found one.
He got lucky. Based on the numbers, he probably will not be lucky again.
Funny story, I have literally never found a soj or a shako or most of the “popular, good drops”. I never super sweaty farmed for them, but you’d think 15 years would be enough to get one randomly…
Character rollbacks are a cardinal sin in an RPG, can’t believe some people want to act like it’s no big deal because you can just regain your losses with even more time invested. Like nobody should be pissed that Blizzard is wasting their time. Imagine if WoW had an error that caused character rollbacks, except that doesn’t happen because sub $ is on the line.
What about instead of us doing the work, the company we paid money for did the work and secured their potatoes they call servers
Nah man, Blizzard employees are the only people with school debt and mortgages to pay off, have some mercy, us buying their game is an act of CHARITY, anything we get in return we should be grateful for.

Nobody is saying it isn’t a big deal. It sucks and it has happened to everyone who has played D2. However, Blizzard doesn’t just rollback servers because they feel like it. There is something big going on when a rollback happens. We’ve experienced 3(?) in the last 48 hours…kind of hints that they’re being targeted for vulnerabilities, or have identified some sort of hack/dupe method.
Rollbacks will continue to happen though and it is the risk you take to play an ARPG like this online.
Rollbacks never happened in Classic. Also not like they give me the option of TCP/IP to still do multi with people I know and avoid risk. Quit defending these clowns, they aren’t in it for you, they’re in it for the perks and salary.
Rollbacks never happened in Classic.
Yes. Yes they did…when Blizzard still cared about it.
I started playing LoD at launch and never had a rollback.

Or you just don’t remember them, or you never were effected by them. They happened.
Um, that has happened. Many times. It sucks a lot no matter what.
The way the game saves in snapshots, it happened ALL THE TIME on dial up. You DC and you are rolled back to the last auto save point or Close and Save.
I am very sorry to tell you, that the others are right. It is gone.
There is no item restoration function in Diablo II: Resurrected. Customer Support cannot restore items.
It still sucks, but if you want to know I can tell you why. All the Diablo games save data in snapshots of the account. When you save and exit, it saves. It also does auto saves from time to time, but those will vary.
There is no second by second log that shows item drop, vendor, trade, tossing it on the ground, etc. Nothing to show how you got an item or what happened to it.
Without logs they won’t just make people items. None of the Diablo games have in-game support for restorations.
Only WoW does, and that is limited. That game as a real time MMO has the logs to support limited item restorations. In fact, they even made a tool for players to use themselves that shows the GM log of last vendored/disenchanted items so players can fix it themselves.
It would take a complete restructuring of the game architecture and logging to give Diablo games that function. I don’t think they will do that.
