unique items *no longer updated*

My shadow has 70% block chance actually with this shield when using Tempest shield, and the two clusters of shields near his starting position in the tree. Go for more would be a bit difficult.

Tough? A Ranger can achieve 75% block at around lvl 40ish without using that unique or tempest shield. 75% is not tough by any means if you're building for it. For a Shadow.. it's more difficult than a Ranger, but still doable.

Hey, I was wondering if unique items have item level and how does it affect number of sockets you can get on it?

Yes, uniques have an /itemlevel just like any other item that can get mods. And yes, an item's /itemlevel affects how many sockets it can have. I'm not sure it's known exactly what level for each amount of sockets though.. You can try and do some research on the forum but you won't come across a definitive answer. I did read somewhere where Chris stated that he thinks 6 sockets has to be /itemlevel 50. Also, The amount of sockets is further limited by the item type. A helmet, for instance, can never have more than 4 sockets.

I didn't say that it would be impossible, just a bit difficult, because you have to go in parts of tree, where you weren't go if you don't seach max block ;)
Of course you have shield block nodes that are really strong on dex part of tree (3-4% each) and they allow to have high chance of block in endgame without that unique.
But for the first 30-40lvl this is a really good shield to use if you want high block, without focusing on it too much.

I recently found It has one more Slot and diffrent values than in this Thread listed

Anyone have a Hrimnors Resolve or The Magnate floating on default I am interested in buying them, contact Kekerpwnt.

If anyone wants it pm me

Looks interesting but I fail to see how this is usefull. Judging however by the trade forums a lot of people trade this piece. Anyone using it care to educate me how it fits their build ?

So it is now 67 Unique items after the latest patch?


And Charan is up to, what, 3 Unique items so far? ;-)
