I like to make a game every once in a while on normal called “free stuff” give it to people. Helps everyone gear up and is a nice feeling thing to do.

The world needs more men like you.

  • Put them on low level characters that you plan to level up in the future.
  • Sell them to any vendor.
  • Join a low level public game and throw them on the ground as free stuff.
  • Throw them on the ground in a private game and exit.
  • Stop picking up normal/classic set/unique items.

Put them on a mule if you’re Holy Grail-ing ( = trying to find all uniques & sets in the game).

I did that in the old game, and got all of them XD They went away with the accounts when I stopped playing. They are for cosmetic purpose. Some of them actually look good especially now you can see the char with weapon on hand in high resolution showing in the lobby.

Hotspurs can drop in Normal Tristram.

This low level unique is priceless for HC and PvP.

To answer you question would be saying, “it depends on what low level unique you are referring to”.

I dropped about 60+ low level - mid level uniques/sets for those starting out in random act 1 games

Whit the limit of 20 characters and the limited shared stash space, Holy Grail-ling is not something we can realistically do for the moment, sadly.

I’ve said it before and I’ll said it again, we need a bigger character limit and bigger stash space.

Yeah well, I am playing with 2 accounts. With a total of 40 characters, still I don’t think we can do it. So, I am just gonna keep a few useful ones this time and try it on once and keep the good looking ones. Keeping them all ultimately serves no purpose 'cause I already did and they went away anyway XD.

Horde them…like a dragon with it’s treasure.

If my understanding is correct, to have 2 accounts for this game, you need to buy the game twice also?

If that’s the case, that’s a shame cause “back in the day” with the old D2, you could create, after the initial purchase, unlimited free accounts, and with that, a unlimited number of characters and unlimited stash space.

Yes, you now need two copies of the game. D2R doesn’t actually have an account login text field anywhere, so you also have to launch it from two separate computers.

I don’t believe that it’s currently possible to launch two copies of D2R on the same PC without software intervention, which is against the TOS

In original D2, you also could not launch it twice without software, and it was a bannable offense for which I was banned many times and lost many keys.

I have two separate PCs nowadays because I’m an adult and misuse my resources, so I’m fully ToS compliant and 100% virgin.

Yeah, I play with 2 PCs with 2 bnet accounts. In the old days, you needed to buy 2 copies of the game and could create unlimited accounts. I remember I created so many accounts to horde items and had to put them into an Excel sheet XD. Unless they add something new for d2r, I’d probably just play a few builds and do some casual MFing this time. I mean the graphic quality is so well done and I can’t just let it slide :stuck_out_tongue:

<— Willing to accept any free low level items you have :slight_smile: Most of my time spent at work, so cant really spend too much time farming.

So basically that upgrade cube recipe is useless?

ITs only useless in the sense of…
Hellplague (Unique Longsword)
5% Mana stolen per hit
5% Life stolen per hit
Adds 28-56 Poison Damage over 6 Seconds
+70-80% Enhanced Damage
Adds 25-75 fire damage
+2 to All Fire Skills (All Chars)

Upgraded to a Cryptic Sword, it would still be Hellplague but in a cryptic sword. It would not transform into Frostwind
+180-230% Enhanced Damage
Hit Freezes Target +4
Half Freeze Duration
+25% Increased Attack Speed
Cold Absorb 7-15%
+7-14 to Arctic Blast
Adds 237-486 Cold damage Chills for 6 seconds

So 70%-80% enhanced damage vs 180%-230%
25-75 fire damage vs 237-486 cold.
The upgraded weapon states simply do not compare to an actual elite unique weapon. Invictus#1104 is my bnet name if u want to clear out your junk rares. I do not have much to give in return, but can give you my Dol rune (its the highest I have).

Depending on your class I might have some crap you could use.

Im paladin, my friends just got the game (they have never played diablo before so I am trying to get them items). One is a druid, one is a sorc, and other is amazon.

Put low level uniques in your shared stash for alts. I got a lvl 13 sword today that’s a one-hander or a two-hander depending on if I have an off-hand equipped.
