Unique Item Prophecies

I'm sure that these prophecies are fine on cruel and merciless, when rare monsters spawn more frequently

They are not. You still spend a ton of time looking for them, for uniques that are no better than the ones you'd find in normal.

I'll just paste here what I said in another thread.



The "find a powerful such and such that will drop a unique item" prophecies need to be changed, or they need to go.
I don't want to spend 30 minutes farming lower prison looking for this idiot, that will drop some shitty unique no one wants. Especially when I'm already in maps.
I don't want to spend 8 or more coins just to remove it via sealing. I already spent the one coin to get something I don't want to do, and I'm willing to chalk it up as a loss and discard the prophecy.
Either always spawn the monster in question, or allow us to discard prophecies (seriously, I'm supposed to give up 5-10 zones worth coins to get rid of something that will have me resetting an act1/2 zone for half an hour to get a unique that's typically vendored?)
Discarding freely would be too abusable, so just spawn the monster 100% and let us get our 4 alch shards worth of gear and move on with our lives.

This is most shitty prophecy so far, also did numerous runs od Prison for nothing...



There should be cheaper possibility to get rid of such shitty prophecies nobody needs.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Literally just had my first spawn of archers in the TWO HOURS i've been trying to complete this, and every single rare was a necro(insult to injury, two rare necros in trials area).

Fuck this prophecy.

EDIT: If you see zombies in the instance, just leave. It only either spawns Thieves, Thieves and Zombies, or Thieves and Poachers.

EDIT2: Don't fuck with Upper Prison. Poachers only seem to spawn in packs with a Necro, which means if it is a rare spawn pack it will be the necro.

EDIT3:DO NOT waste your time on Normal difficulty strongboxes........they can't roll 3 rare mobs modifier.

This fucking shit is getting more and more less appealing than taking bathing in battery acid.

Absolutely disgusting did so many runs and no luck.
Less chance to find this mob than actual unique drop from any mod

I spawned a Lower Prison with Poachers and ran around most of the map, but didn't find any rare ones. I was starting to get disappointed, but then I remembered rare mobs spawn at the end of the trials of ascendancy, and found one there.

Same thing with this one.. i run the mines a dozen times at least and finally just give up.
Some of these dont show on your quests either when your in the right area so its hard to know if your in the right place or not as well.

It would make sense if they would just remove the difficulty prequisite for those. Being able to do them in any difficulty would be fine. I was able to complete all of those in Merciless quite easily, even cruel most of them are fine. Prison is the one exception, since almost all rares are necros or zombies, however in cruel and merciless it is possible to encounter those skeletons in other areas although not that reliable (but often without necros).

Most of these Prophecies also drop fixed uniques. The Undying Evangelist always gives Tabula and the brittle poachers give Storm Cloud, while the Galvanic ribbons always drop Windripper.

JUst look for a Strongbox and roll "3 rare monster"..

took 3 runs.
this prophecies are sad anyway. storm cloud, ye.

the only good one so far was solaris -you can still sell windripper for 10-15c, and sometimes chamber of sins one drops good maligaro rolls.

According to the wiki, "3 rares" strongbox' mod can only spawns from lvl 35.
