I wish that cruel + had unique content from normal, I know it would be a lot of work but I just can't find the fun in running the same thing over and over again hoping for a miniscule chance of an upgrade. Does anyone know the default drop chances by the way?

Not sure if this is true but I remember reading somewhere that they had planned on having 10 acts total eventually. If that happens I assume they will cut out the "extra" difficulties completely and just ramp up difficulty through acts (acts 1-3 are "normal", 4-6 are "cruel" with the -resists and all, 7-10 are "merciless"). I know before OB they only had 2 acts and had 4 difficulties (Ruthless after merciless) and cut out Ruthless once Act 3 was added.

God I hate the Bear trapper in act three, Totally avoiding that asshole nect time around >.<
He does suck a load of donkey ass but while you are trapped you can still do the leap skill and I assume the teleport as well. With 62% mitigation I can just lifeleech through his bullshit fairly consistently now.

How do you get Chromatic orbs now? Trading in a three colored item doesn't work anymore.

Man, been busy with work.
First time logging in. Skillgem art is pretty sweet.
It is pretty cool, only thing I don't like is I can't tell skill gems from support gems at a glance anymore.


About the Chromatics. the three colors have to be linked. It should be working, I sold some a couple hours ago.

3 color linked items don't trade for chromatics anymore? If that's true I'm guessing they just want chromatics to be worth more?

You all know to do a world tour of all the vendors in all the acts after each level up, right? It's a very easy way to turn shitty low end currency into chromatics, jewelers, +20 onyx amulets, and armor pieces that already have good sockets/links without using up your good currency. Starting at around 40 you can average 4-6 chromatics per level, and by the 50's it's more like 5-8 chromatics and about a 50/50 chance at getting 7 jewelers (or a potentially useful 6 socket item if you don't sell it).

I did not know that the vendors update their items after a level up.

That is good to know, thanks!

I like this idea. I'd be down. Default makes more sense to me.

Not played till last couple days so only know about the Chromatics for R-G-B. What are jewellers and 20 Onyx amulets about/for ?


Is it worth keeping blue jewellery or flasks for any crafting recipes or just sell them as junk ?

Chromatics can usually be bought for Wisdom scrolls I think. The jeweller orbs are from buying 6 slot items and selling them back.

I keep high quality flasks to reroll with transmutations? (or is it alterations? forget). But you should usually pick up all superior flasks so you can sell 1(20%) or multiple(total of 40% quality) for a Glassblower Bauble.

7 jewelers for any 6 socket item. +20 to all stats onyx amulets are good for using with orbs of alchemy/chance (if you like gambling with <1% odds).

Blues are mostly useless. The jewelry you can 'cheap scour' with skill gems if you want to get back a max roll white to redo with a alchemy/chance. Save superior flasks until you can add up the quality to 40% and sell them all together for a glassblower's bauble.
