    I kinda feel sad for you mate. Hope you get better weapon, wish you luck!

    Your post is kinda "see what else I got and you don't" not cool dude.

    Isn't that the whole point of this thread, to show off what you get?

    Even though the rng gods have never smiled me, I'm thrilled to see that others get great or OP 2h weapons. It helps me keep the faith that one day I might just get lucky.

    In the meantime, when the rng gods tease me with what could be better than what I have, they whack me with gem slots :p

    No auto hate, but the fact that you think the game owes you luck just because you've played for a while is garbage. Also, since LVL 50 has been available to everyone for the same length of time means that you've had the same amount of time as they have had to get lucky. Just because you played at LVL 40 for a while means nothing now.

    More on the "auto hate": it is not auto hate because someone has put more effort into a goal than me. If anything, I respect that dedication... I hate people with entitlement issues. I don't care if they think that the game owes them something due to the time they've played, the money they've spent, or the number of times they've done a boss. It is LUCK! You have serious entitlement issues. All someone has to do is look back at your posts and see you think that you are special and deserve better drops than other people because of the time you have spent doing things. I'll let you in on a secret... You are not special. I'm not special. Novadude is not special. If there is a 1:1,000,000 chance of getting a really nice weapon that good, and you have farmed 1000 weapons and someone else has only farmed 100, but they are the one who got lucky, GET OVER IT! You remind me of DayWalker complaining about someone who got less Stellar Gold than him getting the top prize. Grow up and move on!
    Rhysingstar is right... the purpose of this thread is to show off. Not be bitter because you don't have the same kind of luck that they do. I have said numerous time that I'm jealous of their luck, but not once do I hate on them because they got lucky to a crazy degree and I haven't... that is all you. So, instead of hating on him (like you accuse me and Nova of hating on you), how about you congratulate him and move on.

  4. LudiGrozd, Master0fpuppets, CrazyGrape, or whatever name you are going by now, Be civil in this thread. It is for showing off items that you get that are very good, or commiserating over continued failures. While it is ok to be envious of their items and luck, do not attack someone because of you lack of luck.

    _Baragain_, while you may have some valid points, calm down. He may be in the wrong to a degree, but you don't need to stoop to his level and attack back.

    So, with that being said, drop it. Mesala got lucky and that is the end of it. Either be happy for them and express such, or keep your negative opinions to yourself.

    Here are my first 3 attempts at crafting today. I am saving some exo's for 2.0 hoping that some of the random luck is reduced.

    Gimme the second one!

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

    After I spent some time yesterday in re-building my build :rolleyes: to get a little more CHR for my recent axe...
    Guess what?! Last night I got my best DPS weapon so far (no crit whatsoever :(), and again... Guess what?! It's a sword! I was getting tired of my slow attack speed and switched back to my old sword for a moment, but it wasn't enough to survive in PWs.
    [​IMG]
    Equipped and with my biggest :rolleyes: atk gems:
    [​IMG]

    Would you go with the axe or with this new shiny sword?

    EDIT: I forgot to say... When it dropped and I picked it up, the New item popup didn't appear so I thought it was a melt. When I identified it I was like... Whaaat?! 7696 CV, gee... the team which invented the CV system should stick it up their ... brains, because on drops like this I wanna be notified.:p

    Please ignore the CV, it will get you in trouble fast.

    I would take the sword in a heartbeat. There are other items where you can pick up crit. When you can upgrade those rubies. I would not suggest opening up the additional two gem slots as there are better weapons out there, but it is still quite nice for now.

    Depending on how crafting 2.0 shakes out, this would be a nice weapon to throw in the mix.

    The CV meant nothing to me from the beginning.
    By the way, I meant to ask you...
    What did you use for the first 2 axes?How did you get both the critical and the increased weapon damage into them? What's your recipe?

    If I knew the secret to crafting, all my weapons would come out with 2 big lines of % dmg and 2 big lines of Dmg. Sadly most of mine end up with 1 big line of crit and nothing else worth mentioning.

    When I craft, I only use 4 of the same item. Not that it makes a difference really, but I'm hoping that 4 axes or 4 hammers or 4 swords will one day allow the rng gods to be happy.

    [EDIT]

    Until Crafting 2.0 comes along, there has never been a way to influence the product of crafting. If you are looking for what you'd want to do if you are looking to do some serious crafting after crafting 2.0, check out my analysis here. That is what you'd be looking to do if you already have a good one and want to remove as much of the randomness as possible. Sure, you could still get lucky by combining exos and legendaries, but it is only a moderate improvement over the existing system. If each item you are using as ingredients (exo/leg) has one line that you are looking for, then you are faced with a 0.5% or 0.05% chance at crafting what you are looking for. That is roughly 1:2000 and 1:20000 respectively.

    Currently we can only guarantee what type of weapon we get. 4 axes in = 1 axe out. The stats and enchantments are up to the random generating gods.

    Now back when BigPapa was around, he did mention swinging a rubber chicken counter clockwise over his head while crafting. He was certainly one OP Ranger, so you might want to give that a try. :p

    I don't have a rubber chicken, will my cat work instead?

    Maybe, but your cat may have other plans... do you have nine lives too, because your cat might take one if you try this.

    Not bad, but since you can theoretically get 150% in as little as 2 lines with other stats on top, it could be a little better. That is about on par with a 100%/+90 axe IMHO.

    if you seen what i have been getting for 3+ years thats a pretty good weapon- well aware of whats theoretically possible whether that comes to fruition thats a different story
