[Science Project] - 96 amulets corrupted and counting

I need a +1 curse amulet for my build, and unfortunately there aren't any unique amulets that are actually good for me. So I have taken on the burden of acquiring and corrupting massive amounts of rare amulets ranging in price from 1 alch to 3 chaos in order to complete my quest. My requirements? Must have 60+ base life and either a decent flat phys damage roll or a 22%+ crit multi roll. Other stats are gravy.

So far I have corrupted 88 amulets with the following results:

38 amulets: no change

29 amulets: rerolled

3 amulets: +movespeed implicit
1 amulet: damage gained as mana on hit implicit
3 amulets: -x physical damage taken from attacks implicit
3 amulets: +chaos resistance implicit
1 amulet: grants purity of lightning skill implicit
2 amulets: 1% of fire damage leeched as life implicit
2 amulets: +1 frenzy charge implicit
1 amulet: grants clarity skill implicit
2 amulets: 1% cold damage leeched as life implicit
1 amulet: increased minion damage implicit
2 amulets: 1% of lightning damage leeched as life implicit
2 amulets: WED implicit
1 amulet: attackspeed implicit
1 amulet: spellblock implicit

nice. keep up the good work. i like threads like this one
2 fire damage leeched as life. that's pretty useful as is that +1 frenzy charge!
Yeah, I don't know much about fire builds, but I imagine these amulets may not be ideal for most fire damage. Maybe Molten Strike or something?


The last +frenzy charge one is sweet and I'm currently using it as a placeholder until my science SUCCEEDS!

incinerate build.

my incinerate build has many +% fire damage nodes, so the extra 1% fire leech i rolled on my lazhwhar's was a big help.

and man do i want a +1 frenzy charge ammy now ! :-)

FOR SCIENCE!
I vaaled another round of 14 amulets with a result of only one implicit change, 8 rerolls and 5 nothings.

The experiment continues.

Hey :) i like posts like this.
I had a similar project with my Rats Nest. Was looking for "gems in this item are supported by lvl 12 cast on crit" so i can get power charges really fast with my CoC build.

here is the result:



I corrupted 10 of them and THEN i finally got it^^



of course i get it on the worst possible crit roll... -.- but still happy.
BUMP with another 14 Amulets down! Some nifty corruptions this time -- 2 +1% cold damage leeched as life. Still no curse though.
