    Hawkmail gives you 10%FRW, but in fact it doesn't. it's a heavy armor type (scale mail, plate mail, full plate mail), wearing it gives you -10%FRW by default, so 10%FRW on it just offsets the penalty.

But it's by no means unique (no pun intended) and there are countless videos of the same thing that already exist on YT. So the video poses the question and I answered a simple answer.

    Just watched the title and wondered.. why not?
    Long after 1.10 I almost exclusively built my characters with only rares/crafted, set and unique items.
    I think the reason was mostly the very low drop rate of high runes and when playing solo self found mostly.
    I also did not like all the too OP runewords like spirit and insight on merc so I skipped those.
    I guess I also liked the way itemization was in 1.09 so I liked to try and recreate those characters I played back then :)

    • @zarfen
      @zarfen  17 часов назад

      After doing a lot of play throughs recently I also think the game is more fun if you skip the super efficient RWs like spirit, lore, ancients pledge, stealth… but I also find it very hard to pass on the “cheap” power 😁
