I was just saying earlier that I had yet to find a Vipermagi. Later, I join
a Hell game, just to play and help whomever get through act 1. I very
rarely join public games. But today I did, and I was rewarded. When we
finally got around to killing Andi, she dropped green demonhide boots, and
since I collect sets, and did not yet have the Rite of Passage boots, this
was cool. We left the game, and I started a hell game for myself (private)
to do an Andi run, and maybe some other runs, but not using my MF gear,
since that seriously weakens both my sorceress and mercenary. The MF setup
does, however, get a fairly respectable +625%, for a merc kill, and nearly
+450% solo (if I could only find some Ists...). But again, I'm not using
it. I'm not carrying as much as an MF small charm.

Well, Andi drops a gold serpentskin armor, and a gold ring. I'm saying, No
way. So there's my Vipermagi, and a better MF Nagelring than I already had
(23%). I'm feeling like this was worth the time.

I decide to do a quick Meph run in Hell. Meph drops a gold wire fleece...
I'm definitely saying no way, now. Okay, so what is Gladiator's Bane worth
(1486 defense)? I don't think I'm trading this. My sorceress can actually
wear this, once she reaches level 85. She's 82, now.

I have seen people actually laugh when a gladiators bane was offered up for
trade, I guess people can't see a build where it is useful. The ES sorc I am
running with an iron pelt on her merc would like to find one. The sorc has
enough dr/mdr to survive nm and the early stages of hell, she just doesn't
stand up to mana burners or act 5 hell.

I would absolutely kill for a gladiator's bane! My barb would have
looooooved it! (too bad he expired from inactivity). I had been
searching for that for years, and it NEVER dropped! Argh!

Congratulations!

Well, it's a nearly perfect specimen, and I like to collect, so it's a
pretty cool find, regardless of trade value. I've never found one before.
I've never found very many unique elites of any kind. I keep dreaming of
that day when I see gold Sacred Armor drop... hehehe

Same here, I used to play D2 loads and never found any elite items so
basically gave up. Now that I'm back into this darn game stuff drops
like its raining from the sky. Go figure.
