@generik: It can't be a collector's because it's req. 11.

@Daiken: That's not rare, merely uncommon or enchanted, however you want to put it. Rares have gold text and are called rare by the ingame text.

I think he is trying to say he gets no gold drops and that his best drops are like the image.

So if they made it an earth bonus it would be worthy of using? Its non-max, high req and will have a far from pefect casting time bonus. You can pick up better purples if you are on a budget for nothing. Play through the game and you will come across many perfect weapons which will please you.

You can complain when you find a non-max gold ghostly staff with 3 attritubes needed.

I saw a similar item and thought 'Sweet, new mods!' But then I've noticed a lot better descriptions on the, errr...descriptions of items (runes for example, especially Absorbtion). I don't think this is anything new, we just used to call it "Improves Casting speed using Air Magic skills (X% Chance)" back in the day.

Then again I could be full of s***.

...

Just a friendly, random, unrequested observation.

someone close this, it doesn't lead to anything worthwhile being said.
You get bad drops, o well. So does everyone else if you think that way. If rares dropped every 5 seconds, they wouldn't be rares...

Anyway, it is not based upon luck or whatnot, it is an ALGORITHM. So if you think you have bad luck, it could be that one day you find a perfect weapon/item.

perfect 20% earth wrap
If there is nothing worth while here for you then by all means move on to something more enlightening.

Its funny to see some of the combinations of mods you can get on items. I like the ones with two mods. For example a bow with a fiery bow string and a bow handle +25 health. So you expert salvage it into 10 plankes of wood

-energy items are somewhat coveted by PvP casters. Heck, I could use a couple more.
