Indeed Ive learned so many new things in d2r I didnt knew 20 years ago problem is we didnt really had access to these youtube guides etc 20 years ago hehe
Crafting is fun, you can make nice gloves early on once you start finding flawless and perfect gems. I plan on making some Blood Gloves for my Pally and Hit Power Gloves for my Amazon once I find more time to play.
These new guide videos are simply incredible. As a casual but very dedicated fan of D2 (went to a midnight launch back in the day) there's so much I didn't know about the game. Lots of love for all this effort, Mr. Llama, S.C.
In case someone's already wondering: the affix for blood gloves with +2 to skills = ilvl 40 and +20 increased attack speed = ilvl 43. So if you gamble for heavy gloves to use for crafting after, make sure your character level is at least clvl 44 and 46 respectively. So clvl 46 is what you need to be to craft with the highest chance to get both affixes on your gloves ánd avoid higher affixes (that require higher clvls) to roll. Good luck!
@@JukeboxOddities you have to craft blood gloves, use a level 82 character to gamble and craft sharkskin and vampirebone gloves, heavy gloves are different and tbh not worth crafting anyway.
It's nice to see that someone covers these items. I know them from GOT (good old times...) when I played Diablo 2, and found these on the net, and used them frequently to fill in for items I don't have yet, or roles like the caster items for a magic user. Your regular search for crafting won't show these reciepes, and these can be useful, some of them straight up powerful. Detailed and very informative video! Cheers!
WARNING!!! Before anyone goes and blows all their perfect gems trying to craft a +skiller grand charm. 14:52 This does not work on most grand charms. The grand charm must drop in an area levels of 50 or above. (The Great Marsh on nightmare difficulty or any areas after that). I can literally see someone complaining, But MrLlamaSC said I could do it and it didn't work, rip my life or something to that effect 😂
After years and years of playing Diablo 2, I had no idea that the crafting was this deep lol time to experiment, thanks for the vid!! Loving all the guides
I'm new to D2R and I was about to look up some info on the crafting system and this view pops up first on my YT feed. Love the content on this channel and it's really deepening my enjoyment of this game. Thanks so much!
Idk about everyone else, but I think my favorite part of d2R are how many new players are playing the game. For so many years in d2, everyone playing the game basically knew everything. So no one ever really talked or asked questions. Feels like I’m back in 2004-2005 now.
The people who are so gushing and happy for me to give them a Magefist, some IKs, a Tal helm, an Insight, Spirit, or Wizspike. It's great lol I feel like a god. It's much more nice to just help people through Hell and give em a little power up than try and drag those starter items through trader purgatory for a fucking Ko or a Fal of all things.
@@youngsomalia1511 Exactly. Giving frees has been awesome. I remember back in the day playing my first bowazon and someone gave me a Kuko Shakaku (the purple unique cedar bow). I was still doing shit damage, but it was SO much better than what I was using, and I was so stoked to have it.
My mind is so deep in the gutter I nearly spit out my coffee when you casually mentioned how crafting hitpower weapons give you a little bit of 'ED' :')
Llama you sir, are a beast! Top quality content! Super in depth guides, awesome personality! Love listening to you and your never ending knowledge of this masterpiece of a game!
Would love to see a tutorial on areas where elements are particularly more useful to farm. For example, areas for cold sorcs to farm, areas for lightning trap assassins to farm, etc... I remember a video hearing you mention "this is a good place for cold sorcs" and thought it would be useful to know areas like that.
I sometimes crafted safety javelins in the past for my amozons if I started a ladder with that class and needed something intermediate before a Titan's dropped. You only really needed to roll Javelin levels, stack size and attack speed were a bonus.
One day I saw on a random item selling site, which I like to look at every blue moon and all of their crafting packs came with junk facets as the jewel. This started me wondering, so I bought a handful of them to try and craft with... Crafting with facets made the godliest items I've ever made or even came close to making.. rare jewels don't seem to be any different from magic ones but there's something about facets that makes them easily the best possible jewels to craft with
Nice Video, as always. For all people that have PC crashes: Set your frame rate to 60 or even 50 and all graphics to low Level. That solved it for me. I can finally play it.
Blood helm as temporary/budget option for merc helm slot? Just a thought. Theoretically, can you socket quest a crafted e.g. blood helm and shove e.g. more life leech and resistances in the sockets?
It works, but there aren't any socketable items that give life leech. Not even jewels can give life leech. And the base amount of life leech on blood helms is not high enough for it to be worth it. You want at least 6% imo, which you can pretty much only get from circlets. RARE circlets can also spawn with 30% faster run/walk at the same time, which is really good for act 2 mercs, particularly if you're a necro since the skeletons block the path of your merc, so increased movement speed will make him get stuck behind your skeletons less often.
Is this info somewhere in the Diablo wiki? Or, has it been brought together somewhere that we could print from? I could easily see myself with a three ring binder of how the cube is used.
Hello. my name is Raven. i watch a lot of ginger's videos. i just wanted to introduce myself. some times i have questions about the game. i am a huge diablo player but i have spent a lot of time not knowing a lot about the game so im here to work on that. Raven
Why would a person want to use 3 perfect gems to reroll a grand charm when they could just do cows to farm some more? Does it have a higher chance to have better stats or something?
Watching in 2x speed faster cast rate starts to sound like faster castrate. 20ish years ago when I first got into crafting (blood rings mostly), I was looking to trade for 40 rubies/sol runes ect. since that seemed to be the common amount. It took my first trade to realize that the number was set at 40 because that is the amount of space you have in your inventory. It took me two trips to my stash before being able to clear my inventory enough to complete that first trade. Once for charms, and misc items, but still couldn't complete trade, had to put cube in stash so inventory was completely empty, then could complete the trade. It was an epiphany for me to realize why the amount was set at 40 🤦🤯.
17:48 so if im level 89 crafting caster amulets dropped from a terror zone(lvl 91) then im good cause the formula will give me an ilvl of exactly 90 right?
thanks again, but what i more want for "crafting" information is things like making items higher with the cube and adding sockets, reroll items and such things
i scratched the top surface of D2 back in 2000 and i didn't go online or look up info, so i didn't get far. twenty years later i'm digging in to D2R and _what the hell is going on with the systems in this game oh my god it wants me to study it like a graduate level course_
Safety amulet is extremely valuable to craft for hardcore because of the % to blocking. Caster amulet is better, but these require different runes/gems so anybody crafting for caster amulets will also be crafting for safety amulets. Every single player in hardcore goes for max block and you'll find this out once you start playing hardcore
So if you are level 90 and you gamble an amulet on hell gheed...even if that amulet has a level require of 13 you could still use it to craft with for items between 85 - 94?
Please do another deeper vid on crafting. I just got to Hell act 1 with a lvl71 Hammerdin but my gears seem a little underpowered. Rocking a double spirits, stealth and lore but these bases are pretty low on defense.
You don't need to prioritize defense on a caster, you're going to be running the vast majority of the time which lowers your defense to 0 anyway. If you have double spirit you're probably doing so much damage from the +skills alone that you'll be fine.

The Hitpower gloves are also really good for Bowazons. The knockback really helps out with survivability for both you and your merc
This was def a mistake imo, they are very sought after if you get good rolls,

i like blood armor and helmet for my merc when he is low level it help for the suvivability a bit.
fast question now in d2r how can you check the Ilevel of a gambled amulet? it only shows the requiered level not the ilvl of the amulet ,, thanks
Llama what about upping uniques and other things ? Need to know more about it !🙏🙏🙏
So you can reach that level 90 breakpoint for amulets at clvl 82 if you get the amulet from diablo/baal.

20+ years ago, I forgot about this, lol.. Now I remember crafting a CRAP load of Caster Amulets.
What are people usually after on the gloves.
You said ammys you want a 2 skill plus double faster cast rate mainly
I learned a lot with you Llama, thank you.
Please make a video discussing the elemental damage vs physical and the benefits of the gems
Why can’t i add sockets to a superior ethereal archon plate in the cube?
Why would a person want to use 3 perfect gems to reroll a grand charm when they could just do cows to farm some more? Does it have a higher chance to have better stats or something?
You can get a grand charm that dropped from baal and thus has a high ilevel and then use that charm to craft skill charms
