unique items *no longer updated*

WTB Crit Gloves, pay good!

found these the other day, hoped to find the circlet too but recently just read the first post and noticed base type bias isn't the way things work anymore, I was going to say I had been farming a lv 13 area and got a number of rare copper circlets...

I found my uniques in Cruel or Ruthless Ledge, just wondering if there's a minimum requirement for that circlet to show up (it's a lv 11 requirement item)? Does difficulty increase chances for uniques? or Farming low level areas increase my chances in finding no-low level requirement uniques? (I doubt there's a high level requirement on a low base item type but why not ask anyway)

I run around with 82 Quantity & 153 Rarity.

AFAIK if the req is lvl 11 then it can drop in areas with monster lvl 11 or above. It's a pretty bad idea to farm low lvl areas with a high lvl char though, because there are drop penalties for being too high above the monster level.

Normal doesn't drop currency sure but cruel to merciless seem to drop currency items normally, not much of a penalty that I can tell.

What's the deal with "Ungil's Coil"?
I've seen a ring exactly like it, but it was called "Andvarius".
Did they just changed the name through patch and now both variants coexists?
Can someone post "Andvarius" here please?
Thanks

I've asked for clarification on this but never got a response. The only thing that was said is what I have quoted in the 1st post. Based on the quote, what I think is happening is that there is a flat drop rate for unique items. Let's say its.. .001% for argument's sake. Now, in Chaos, that doesn't mean each unique item has a .001% to chance to drop. It means that you have a .001% chance to find ANY unique and each unique item has an equal share of that .001%. If, for instance, there were only 2 uniques total in the game, and one dropped for you in Chaos there would be a 50% chance for that item to be either of the 2 uniques. If there were 20 uniques then you would have a 5% chance of the item being one of them. At the moment in Chaos with 55 uniques you have a 1.8181% chance of finding each one because every base type is available by lvl 60. As you go down in map level, you lose the total number of base types and so the chance of finding a certain unique at that level go up but you retain the .001% drop rate. So in Twilight Strand on Normal, the very 1st area, it's impossible for you to find Kaom's Heart because Chaos Plates don't drop in level 1 areas but you have an equal chance to find all uniques with base types that do drop at level 1.

I hope that makes sense, it's the best guess I have as to how the drop rates work for uniques.

Actually, items can start dropping 2 levels below their required level. If an item has a req lvl of 11 then you'll start seeing the item dropped in lvl 9 areas. Drop penalties as far as I can tell only apply to currency. It's possible they apply to rarity as well but I honestly have not noticed a difference in rarity when farming low level areas with a high level character. Malice's FAQ only states 'currency' though.

Are you sure someone didnt post Ungil's Coil and Divinarius at the same time? Perhaps you looked at Ungil's but saw the name Divinarius instead..

I'm hundred percent sure that i've seen the "Andvarius" unique ring posted on global chat.
You can also see the "Andvarius" unique ring posted on this topic:

http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/20350

Its clearly an "Ungil's Coil" but with the "Andvarius" name.
WTF?

Haha, the dev's are switching things up it seems. I like Ungil's Coil better to be honest, but I'm sure they have their reasons for changing it. Maybe they figured they have too many So-and-so's Item names.

Wonder what else has changed.. I'm guessing we'll see different artwork for a few items and some updated text - item names, mods, flavor text.

Seems I'll have some updating to do.
