Dark Legacy CE - How to prepare

Don't melt or sell items if you invested in gem slots, before changes happen - this rule stays no matter what happen or change on TS.
As they already said they should compensate players with andermant for all lost gem slots. Those slots are not few those are too many.
You will end up with 4x slots on all items ... meaning you will lose 5th if you already had.
That is a huge investment loss IF you already opened up all slots on older unique items or Common to Legendary gear ... especially if you had opened up more slots on old cloaks. Those cloaks (like the quest power-cloaks in example) were having only one slot and every next gem slot was a huge investment.
Therefore you will (should) receive ander compensation ... I did get over 100K ander (i think) ... check in the video I made. Those are compensation anders.

As an example I have common white items that will be "melted" (they have no glyph value) but i have invested in gem slots because i was using them as gem holders.
On 4 characters per account ... you can get ... who knows , maybe over 200-300K ander.

Note: based on this i will tell you the first "tip and trick" -- when the time comes

 

Thank you for sharing.

 

You are not a pessimist @FAALHAAS it is awful. I have not seen anything I am looking forward to about it.

 

Hello! Sorry for the google translator, I would like to ask about the spells of the objects under the context of only playing the game about twice a week for 3 hours or more depending on whether there is an event or not (sometimes I play more days if there is an event important). I have the inventory full of items (with the premium inventory I would only have 7 available inventory spaces, forgive this DK of two constructions) with items of gold and platinum lines (no object is 4/4 platinum, some have 3/4 and few more 2/4 platinum, between legendary and extraordinary).

Which of those items should I keep?

A helmet of damage increased from 11.5% that is around 95%, when passing to the EC, this value of 11.5% will become the new value of damage increased to 95% (I think 100% at EC and lvl 55 is 30%, what would make 11.5% become 28.5% (95%)?

A 2h weapon spell of 80% on this item will be converted into damage increased to 80% of the new value (30%?)?

I have some legendary lvl 50 with spells of +99 damage and other legendary with critical hit, is it worth upgrading them to a unique item to see if they are not destroyed?

Greetings and thanks

 

Yeah, me neither. Maybe...just maybe its less bad as we think it is


About the runes; are stats the same when buying from gnob? Cost of draken almost doubled, so maybe better buy them before CE ?

 

If you have andermant to invest, open up gem slots in those items that will be automatically melted.
They should be refunded , but you can also earn nice rewards from Daily Deal

 

Containers for consumables are priced differently at different locations (e.g., City of Cardhun seems to be the most expensive) ... and scaled to player level as well. I didn't survey every possibility, but ranged from my Level 27 toon being offered a bottle at 113 gold in Kingshill while my Level 44 toon saw prices ranging from 236 to 320 for the exact same item.

In short, crafting material prices are 400x higher in CE (that's not a typo ... four hundred times more expensive)!

Now that we know raw materials do drop from Painful+ mobs in CE but not predictably, I am wasting a few hours a day right now with my main toon quick farming plants at Painful and Fatal, and will spend several thousand gold on bottles, flasks, etc. of each quality (common, improved, magic) before Tuesday (looks like they still plan to push this unfinished garbage release out on 12/1 ... ).

 

Jewels
Upgrade jewels to highest level and KEEP THEM ... don't grind them to dust. Later just keep amount of max socketable and grind the rest (after the new Release).

Runes
Upgrade to max tier only Runes that you are planning to use or only 5 of them (5 is the max number you can use).
The reset of them keep them at lower tier possible.
The lower the tier the higher the dust gain when grinding.
Buy as much possible wisdom runes for gold so you can melt them later.

I forgot to make comparison with the gems... i will make it later.

 

I have 3 onyx skulls that i have to upgrade and i have 3 halloween jewels, should i upgrade them too?

Also, i have some items on my other characters that will be melted once the expansions, drops( they are old style uniques), should i open up the new gem slot?

 

Jewels that will turn into runes. Should you keep them? Or spray?
Sorry for my bad english)

 

How should I know man?
Those are your toons you are managing them not me

This

they will turn into runes ... the higher the tier of the jewel the higher tier rune you will get.

 

I will still spray the skulls
Why do I need runes for health regeneration, at the cost of dust for gems ...

 

I see that the spells of the items are for this item,
what would happen with a platinum increased damage of 11% (91%) in belt? they would become 91% of the new spell (27% damage in this item (91%) it seems to me) or it would stay at 11% and only lower the spells that exceed 100% of the new spell (30%) as the spells platinum weapons?

 

Those will be totally converted. So 91% idoti moves to like ~30 idoti as an example. There will NOT be any lines like 11%speed or dmg. Those will be converted to Idoti(same as that 91 wpn idoti) type of enahncements . Just keep your plats but those will be transformed to something different in general

 

Hy, dose it count if i open gem slots on epic gear? i have like 10k ander and a good deal in daily and was thinking of folowing your advice

 

It is up to you
But with high tier jewels you will get high tier runes that you can later grind into dust. This is a new kind of dust for rune upgrades only.

It should be only working with legacy gear that is going to be destroyed with script.

Grind the high tier gems (if you don't need them) ... the amount you will get after the changes are much lower.
Don't upgrade the gems just grind those that you don't need.
Flawed gems are best for dust grinding because are having 1:1 ratio (one gem for one dust) ... this ratio still remains.

 

So:
11% (91%) platinum increased damage on belt = 27% damage on this item (91%) on belt

I can now better empty my inventory, thank you.

 

There was this posted today as well on the Discord.



That's a much better conversion ratio for the regular yarn to golden than the current crafting which is a 20:1 ratio.

 

Keep the Cubes don't open them now ... open them at level 100. Don't listen to Jesse.
Items are scaling and you can get over 100 gold per item (at level 65 - my SW is level 65) OR maybe use them if you like OR transfer enchantments OR anything else.

Keep the Legacy enchantments on regular items (no unique items). You can use them when the new game hits live servers.
All you have to do is put them inside unique item.
You will be able to use them in the process of crafting later on. like this

Spoiler: Legacy enchantments

I don't know if they would be valuable ... but at least you would still keep them
