With that ring, you'd never die!

[RagnarokX]

Flesh Signet
Ring
Required Level: 75
(spawns only in level 121 areas)
+(10-20)% Life stolen per hit
+(60-80) Life after each kill
+(60-80) Mana after each kill
4% chance to cast level 6 Pagan Rites on kill

Sounds reasonable, but i think the pagan rites needs to be cut down. Once it is, i dont know if the ring is still be powerful enough. Ppl prefer +1 skills, +mf, +spelldmg over this i guess.

How about +x life when struck

the steamer
long staff (sacred)

+5 to all skills
-10% slower cast rate
40% cold spell damage
40% fire spell damage
cannot be frozen
attacker takes 333 firedamage
increses life and mana by 33%
requirements -20%

(should be comparable to some "ok" crafted staffs, maybe underpowered, but more defensive due to the mana and life bonus and reqs)

there's no good staff or orb specialized for cold/fire chars but 9632212 ones that are specialized for fire/lightning chars.

suggestions on how making this staff beeing balanced but "special"?

[Brother Laz]

'Steamer' is interesting for the name alone.

[pza]

hehe, thx

but i forgot that crafted have ~ 100 resists.

btw, is that really balanced, that crafted sorc armors can have up to 6 skills? i mean, other classes can craft stuff with omg-imba-lifeleech-and-attacker-flees-after-strinking...

at least it's an option to RoS

[xMeox]

maby little bit offtopic but are javelins throwingweapons (can i make throwing-RWs and JWs in javelins?) if not, maby some more RWs or JWs for javelins would be nice..

and what about some more proc items? no physical ones like crucify or time strike. some more elemental proc-items like worldstone shard (which is the only elemental proc item what is able to do some noteworthy damage with LotS and Bloodlust)
maby the item has very low damage and much of -ias an -attack rating, so it isnt possible to play a normal mele character with such a weapon just for extra damage..
there are lot of possible characters with physical-proc-items (thunderslam/timestrike barb, Spikeblasterbarb,.. btw nearly every mele char uses ctc crucify on striking on gloves)

[Doabli]

It's a weapon without procs, and worst thing is, for Sorceresses. Most procs on striking are on weapons, and sorceresses are not very good at all this procs thing (even with Bladestorm) .

[xMeox]

[sry misapprehension]

[Doabli]

I was talking about the Sorceress orb Elemental Insanity .

Toothpick of Rah (6)

unique Javelin
requires lvl 60
requires 333dex.
requires 222str.
onehand damage: 100-200

33% ctc lvl 30 Apocalypse on striking
3% ctc lvl 20 Catalysm on striking
-50 life regeneration
+ 50 mana regeneration
-100%character damage


my point is, to make some ele-proc-items for non physical-mele-chars therefor the -character damage

That weapon would be overpowered, but at the same time make your character too vulnerable, while it lasted, if it's even possible to create. Interesting idea though.

It might be feasable (if it is possible to create) if it was more like:

Crumbling Razor: Sacred Blade
Req. Dex: 444
1h damage: (5-500)-(1000)
Durability 100
Adds 5 min dam. per each point below max durability.
Ethereal
No sockets
100% chance of open wounds
Ignore target defense
100% chance to cast lvl 40 rust storm on self when durability reaches zero

I like this, though I think it would be better to replace WotG with +% lightning skill damage. That way it doesn't get uber overpowered by +skills.

Hehe...wow, can't believe I forgot that! Makes so much sense...one moment...

Does this mean you're opposed to the runeword?
Seems most people are.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's a new one or two:
The Haggler
(Ort + Ort)
Required Level 21
Body Armors
+1 to All Skills
+(10 to 40)% enhanced defense
Reduces Vendor Prices By (5 to 10)%
100% Extra Gold From Monsters
+25% Requirements


Good/bad/not worth the time?


Old
Zann Esu's Might
(Dol + Jah + Fal + Shael)
Required Level 65
Crystal Swords only
+(1 to 2) Sorceress Skills
+1 to Crucify
+1 to Doom
+(200 to 250)% Enhanced Damage
+(20 to 35)% Spell Damage
+50% Bonus To Attack Rating
40% Increased Attack Speed

The green is optional, i.e. I don't know if it should be there or not.


New
Zann Esu's Might
(Dol + Gul + Fal + Ist)
Required Level 53
Crystal Swords only
+(1 to 2) Sorceress Skills
+1 to Crucify
+100-150 cold damage
+100-150 fire damage
+100-150 lightning damage
+(175 to 225)% Enhanced Damage
+50% Bonus To Attack Rating
40% Increased Attack Speed

So which is more balanced or better?

[HaveASmile]

Zann Esu's Might
(Dol + Jah + Fal + Shael)
Required Level 65
Crystal Swords only
+(1 to 2) Sorceress Skills
+1 to Crucify
+1 to Doom
+(200 to 250)% Enhanced Damage
+50% Bonus To Attack Rating
40% Increased Attack Speed

I somewhat like this, finally a good midlevel weapon for the Melee Sorceress (She is pretty much lacking a good weapon until she can use sets/Annuit's End in my opinion).

[pza]

nocte's stuff seems to be nicely balanced. the other ones rather not.

zann esu's might would need some elemental damage imho. and the lvl requirement is a bit too high for beeing a midlvl weapon. it would serve for 10 lvls, then you can throw it away and use some sacred set. i'd put the requirements to ~50(and maybe reduce %damage), just that it's not like berith.

the haggler is nice as it is, like a low lvl beauty (or was it bridge?) rw.

spiderweb
Unique Jewel
requires lvl 55
+5 to all attributes
+5% faster cast rate
+5% increased attack speed
+5% slow enemy
+5%poison spell damage
5% chance to cast lvl 5 black lotus strike when killing an enemy

edit: reduced the black lotus strike level to 5, looks nicer and isn't that overkill (poison ctc's aren't that strong anyways)but this looks nice on a snakist barb, i think

rather overpowered? or balanced?

[Doabli]

Does this mean you're opposed to the runeword?

You got the wrong idea, I was talking to xMeox about the proc idea. The weapon itself is fine, but not for the proc part.
...
I seems to have communication problems with everyone. Time to get some extra English class.

pza : that jewel looks fine, but the proc might get a little overkill.

[Nocte]

it would serve for 10 lvls, then you can throw it away and use some sacred set.

What about the people who don't twink their characters?

P.S.
I like the jewel.
Proc might need to be reduced/removed.

[xMeox]

what about this:

Abstruseness
unique Jewel
+1-50all attributes
+1-100%requirements

(requirements are always attributes x2)

[pacmania90]

If we're doing jewels, then how about this one?

what about 3%ctc lvl1 spikenova when struck? ^^

and drain life -50...
is that like -50life per secound?
but anyway it is overpowered: lets say you have 20 such jewels in your equipt (20*3=60% ctc spikenova on striking = overpowered)
