+4 (holy) silver threaded handwraps

[Alternative]

Looking to hear offers on these. Not interested in what forum economy theorists have to say, only what people who want them would actually bid. And yes, they dropped in epic DA.

Interested in reds/lds, desert raid scrolls, somewhat interested in claw scrolls, DoD and lavender stone. Public offers strongly preferred.

[R0cksteady]

I'll offer 3 FRDS and a Scroll of the SoS.

Also, I thought they only dropped in normal and hard DA?

Got changed in 10.1 apparently.

Yes, they drop in Elite and Epic now and the drop rate was upped as well.

[R0cksteady]

Well, wow. I have to withdraw my offer if that happened. Sorry, I guess I didn't see that in the patch notes.

I'd still trade the 3 FRDS as an opening bid though.

The drop rate is speculation. Them dropping in elite and epic is not.

[Arkat]

The drop rate is speculation.

Not speculation. Personal observation.

Metallic-propertied handwraps are dropping at a MUCH higher rate.

Yesterday, I saw Adamantine-studded handwraps and Silver-threaded handwraps drop in back-to-back Epic Devil's Assault Epic chests (the one with the Epic Dungeon tokens). On a run late Saturday night, I saw a pair of Byeshk-studded handwraps drop.

So to sum up, I saw Metallic-propertied handwraps drop in 3 of the 4 Epic Devil's Assault quests I ran in yesterday and Saturday.

Speculation meaning not proof. Its not necessarily certain whether or not people have just suddenly gotten phenomenally lucky.

That aside, I believe that the drop rates are probably up.

[Exorcist]

If drop rates are up, it's only up a slight amount.... The only reason there could be more of these out there now is the fact they drop on epic now.. Since ppl would have had to farm it on only hard b4.. More ppl do run this on epic mode.

Personally, I have run this epic everyday since patch day last week 2-3 times a day.. And have yet to see any silvers drop.. Yes, a couple of the others.. But its more like 1 out of 4-5 runs..

IMO these are still worth a ton. just my 2 copper

I highly doubt the droprate HASN'T increased, far beyond just dropping on different difficulties now. I've been ransacking 4 or 5 toons constantly in Devil Assault Hard for over a month now, I'm over 100 runs, no luck. They were so rare, even with people farming constantly, I would hear of them dropping maybe once a month. Just last night 2 people I know pulled them. And 1 out of 4-5 runs for metallic type handwraps is a HUGE improvement over 1 every 50 or so runs.

I've personally now seen 2 sets of Silver 2 sets of Byshek 1 Adamantine 1 Cold Iron and 1 set of Flametouched Iron in about 7 or 8 runs. The drop rates or much much higher on epic than they are on hard.

Yes

[KyrzaBladedancer]

No




Yes

Funny enough Exorcist and Alternative are guild mates , but I agree that they are still worth a boatload, maybe not as much as they were, but definitely still worth a lot. I know if he hasn't sold them by the time crafting comes back and I haven't pull a pair of my own, I will pay a pretty penny for them.

I agree they're still worth something (an LDS or two) but that's only because people are either A) lazy, or B) not able to do Devil's Assault on Epic.

<sarcasm>Wow, adamantine-studded, how useful. </sarcasm>

There are some builds with only a few monk levels that actually use handwraps (black lotus, clonk, etc...). For them adamantine is not auto-bypassed.

I found a pair of flametouched iron wraps, and i fail to find a use for those ones

Lol, you serious? In that case I'll buy a couple extra pairs! I'll even chip in a bag of peanuts! Come on, anyone selling? Didn't think so.

It's closed, go farm for yourselves people, happy hunting
