Hello Everyone,
Been loving the game for a few weeks (maybe a month now). Thanks to all of you for the great game.
A problem yesterday has forced me to join up and ask this question.
I was lucky early on, My first Eternal Drop was a sword with a name that I can’t quite remember with the following stats. (I think it was Eternal Stieger’s fortune)
Socket
+137ish Gold Find
+145ish Luck
+20 Fortunate
+27ish Movement Speed
+90.4 Item Drop
I pumped 20 into fortunate using a Orb Build so my basic stat’s with the addition of just that weapon was about…
190.4 Item Drop
245 luck
237 Gold Find
Plus I play on Mythic 3 (currently on floor 550+) So that boosts me further. I also have the reassured and fortunate Perks from my first 2 ascensions.
Anyways with Natures switched to Luck and Greed on most of my equipment I had approximately the following stats.
850 Luck
837 Gold Find
190.4 Item drop
This I thought this was pretty fantastic since I needed no additional slots for Gold find or Luck… Recently I found a Nadroli (sp) necklace and since somehow I’ve been lucky enough to find 5 elixir Mystones (+4 to sets). I switched to that instead of my Frightening choker. I also found a Set item Eternalized Hat so I had an added boost to the quality of Goods I Found.
Last night I found an Eternal version of the Eternalized Hat I was using. Which had 18 fortunate on it. Using it would mean I would lose the Obsidian affix +75ish HP %, but it over maxed my Movement speed (allowing me to free up a slot elsewhere), Awsome total pickup radius. I even elixered it raising my talents to 30, keep my AOE at +6 and allowing me to drop the +2 AOE I had on another item adding in the HP I Lost. But most important of all I now had 18 extra points I didn’t need to spend on fortunate. So I respected put 2 in Fortunate, maxed out my Strength, Dexterity, Almost intelligence etc, while still having 40 in orb and 40 in fortunate.
I check my gear…
I’m now about 50 points short on all the three catagories of fortunate heroic skill. Like only the first 20 points are working.
Item drop is 140.4
Luck is not maxed
Gold find is less maxed then before.
(I did make sure to change the Hat to Luck Nature as per my previous hat, so that’s not the issue)
Even though my Sword has +90.4 Item drop and my fortunate skill says I get 100% to item drop, I’m still only at 140.4. And the same is true of gold find and Luck.
Help me, I’m totally bummed. lol
