About experience- Hellmouth, unique war gauntlets can be easily cubed up from magic war gauntlets. These have 10% to exp gained and are useable at level 47. Up to 50% exp gained potentially, or 40% if you are wearing gloves from some set..

[bobtom]

thats useful 2 know but mine are 2 game wrecking expect one

in youre cube if you create any of the malahs charms or rune of elements (3 gars) then you get 7 stats 2 skills and it also increases your luck and your endurnace so this is a good way to boost you endurance if it is low

[gravity]

You can also accquire bobtom's skill/stat point reward if you cube up the amulets of morphing. Adding amulets 1 through 5 of a given amulet of morphing and cubing them will give you 2 skill points and 5 stat points i believe. Not sure if you get an endurance boost, however but this recipie will be easier to complete than cubing 3 gar runes.

what is the meditation crystal for??

[sonanth]

If the med crystal is what i think it is, you cube it with a belt and it adds a percentage to your life, don't quote me on that tho. I will check later on, i've been saving some for a good belt. Or I think it adds to regen mana.

[gravity]

i believe it adds an increase to max mana.

the new Lava Gout (Battle Gauntlets) have +1 to Enchant. So for those of you with mercs in need of an AR bonus, there you go. Also works on golems..

And for the summoner builds that aren't Necs- Marrowwalks (Boneweave boots) have +3 to Summon resist.

Find the magic base items and cube them up.

Arachnid Mesh- spiderweb sash has +1 to Venom. I'm going to factor it in to my Bowazon build. Rq lvl is 80

Nosferatus Coil- vampire fang belt has +1 to increased speed

Widowmaker- Ward Bow has +3 to Guided Arrow...

[neorevenge]

you can easily cube up a peasant crown from a rare war hat, nettin you a nice +5 to all skills, up to 25, the downside is that this grants you a 250% of cast lvl 5 teleport when struck and 250% to cast teleport 5 on strike, thus fighting against anything gets annoyning >< (i wish i could take off those magics mods)

[sonanth]

--Soul Drainer Vambraces
+30 to Endurance
+56 to Mana and +60 to Life after each kill.
Bad thing its socketed already and Lvl 78

Gravity, you might like this one:
--Toothrow Sharktooth Armor
+2 to Zon skills
+3 to several other zon skills
244 def i think too. Think the Lvl is 68 tho.

ancient containers don't need the gem to be opened. you'll miss out on the mystery potion/ gem powder. but a chipped gem of elements is far too valuable imo

[sonanth]

yea but if you don't use the required gem or skull or whatever, either there is a chance you luck some points in luck or you definitley lose some luck. And to the best of my knowledge, there is no cube recipe to increase luck.

so...if you want to find out whats in that container w/o loss of luck, use all the required ingredients.

[gravity]

Sonath is it luck or endurance?

Anyway, i think both of you are correct; it sucks to loose any stat points, but a chipped G of E is too much given that most of the time, you don't get anything useful. In fact my items from chests have always been better when i skip the catalyst item. I think the worst though is the one that requires pskulls, because those are used for unique upgrades (qty 10). Hm..i'm going to continues this in comment in .35 feedback.

[sonanth]

If I'm not mistaken Truemage said it was luck. And yea the skulls are hard to come by, but as far as gems go, I find I get a bunch on nightmare. So I really don't have a gem problem

This will greatly help out any melee user, a pick named cranebeak (just upgrade a pick all the way) has a skill on it named fire impact, this transfers almost all damage to fire damage. very usefull when fighing enemies immune to physical, magic, etc. and it already has six sockets.

[gravity]

The Occulus (swirling crystal) now comes with +2 to Conviction aura and the teleporting mods on striking have been removed.

Milus (Colossus Voulge) includes +3 to Meteor. Also has a 141% bonus to AR.

Hi,

Sorry for resurrecting this topic, but i'd like to ask one question.

I played the game about year ago, and from what i remember i had no problem in opening antient container. Now - i can't do it. I try civilians ancient container, normal key and gem (all the types generally, except those above normal, so no perfect gems or anything). I'm lv 22, so i can' use those gems yet, but i think this is not the thing.

I posted this under spoiler tab, because i'd like to ask for precise answer. What exacly should i put there? (i'm starting to get irritated because of this...).

Thanks in advance for answer.

Cheers.

[Malachai29]

If I remember right, if you right click the chest it tells you what you need to open it...but its been a while since I last played...

Malachai

[kfadrat]

yea, i know that - it says either special key, or standard gem + key.

2 things i don't know - which one is standard gem (is it 'flawless amethyst', 'perfect amethyst', chipped amethyst, or just 'amethyst')
And what key do i have to use - normal key, the one to unlock closed chests ie. bought at vendor, or some special key (remember, i'm still talking about 'alternative' way to open it, not with special key).

I'm desperate, since some weird crash bug is preventing me from going to special place in act 2 (game crashes when im killing monsters just outside city)...

[Malachai29]

Thats right, he did change the chests a bit....you can find a key for each chest, or use the lower recipe, a standard gen would be "amethyst" or "ruby", as opposed to "chipped amethyst" or "chipped ruby".

[kfadrat]

thanks for info, but still i can't open it.

I mix antient container, one ruby, or any other gem, and the key (3 to be precise, but stacked). Nothing happens. Could it be due to my level? Im lv21, and ruby requires lv 24...

[kfadrat]

argh, doublepost. sorry, I don't know how did that happened.

[Lucia Ellan]

you'll need that weird-shaped key even if you use a gem...
the key appears in special area (please use search method)

[kfadrat]

Ok, now its clear

But still problem stays, since game crashes in 2nd act...

Thanks anyway,
Cheers.
