Price Check: +3 Flametouched Iron Threaded Handwraps of Evil Outsider Bane

[cave_diver]

I've been farming DA on hard and finally came across something somewhat attractive...though still on the hunt for silver/cold iron.

Would like price check on these: +3 Flametouched Iron Threaded Handwraps of Evil Outsider Bane

Nothing special about them, whatever a vendor will pay.

i wouldn't go that far. for a shintao monk without rings, that's a perfect DR breaker, ready to be disjuncted and re-enchanted with awesomeness. not to mention it can be available long before level 18 for other things that need only good to break DR (ie you can enchant it into a very nice trash-beater in the short term, and later on it will become a DR breaker for you)

Problem is, what awesome prefix would you want on a boss beater other than Holy? Anarchic isn't low enough level comparatively to justify any significant price premium for Flametouched Iron.

As a crafting ingredient, it is barely useful.

Used as is, it is basically a low ML +5 Holy vs Evil Outsiders (not that many at 8), and worthless against anything else. Nothing exciting.

Cool Thanks.


Was just wondering

does the new banishing not work against bosses that are outsiders? (yeah, i know, can't craft banishing, but someday it might be possible, and when that happens those handwraps will be there).

Currently Holy (and other alignment based damage sources) on crafted handwraps do not penetrate the appropriate DR on mobs. I'm sure it will be fixed... eventually but who knows when. So at least for now, Holy Flametouched Iron Threaded wraps should bypass devil DR while standard Holy crafted wraps will not. So still very useful for someone who doesn't have tod rings or for someone lv 17 and lower.

Those wraps are basically low ML +5 Holy wraps - solid but unspectacular.

Keep trying the DA lottery.
