I put in a set of ilvl67/68 gear and got 1 chaos

I put in a mix of unid gear ranging from level 28-46, and got back 2 chance orbs.

I farmed only lvl 66 maps (ie Ilvl 66-68 gear) to try the recipe for 20% gear (previously 1 regal). The full set (20%) gave me 2 chaos orbs. Looks like regals will only come in to play @ 70+ ? Has anyone tested yet?

Im tyring to sell a set of identied I lvl 70+ items all at + 20% and its only giving 2 chaos, have no idea when it gives regal orbs, is it now regal orbs for unidentified?

I think that change is good but the scaling ladder for exchange rate should be boosted by a lot. Let's be honest who multiboxes actively in hardcore at 60+. With a minimum itemlevel 60 i still get 1 orb of chance... This change just made high level players who already stashed on chaos orbs, will get more chaos and more regal.. This change just dramatically pushed the balance for high level players. I do get the idea of this change but definitely at around 55 ilvl we should get 1 chaos.

If you truly only get 1 chance for a full recipe of iLevel 60+ items then I certainly agree that it's too low.

It does, however, sound rather extreme. Are you absolutely positive that you didn't overlook a low iLevel ring or something that cause the entire set to scale down?

On a slightly related note: Do we know if this new calculation is based on average iLevel or on lowest iLevel?

I sure am glad I saved up regals. Guess I can trade my regals 1:1 for GCPs now.

PS if this works how I think this works Chaos, Chance and Scourings will become way more expensive than they are now.

I'm getting nothing but alts and alt shards now, can't get chances/chaos no matter what set/ilvl I try to sell
What am I doing wrong?

Traded in 2 sets this AM to set what all the QQ is about.

1 chaos
1 Chance

working as intended, thanks.

FWIW

Selling 1 set of ID'd gear still nets you 1 Chaos. I tried it out on iLVL 40'ish gear. Gives you an incentive to ID gear now anyways. Could've missed that awesome ring/amulet/belt that you needed. As far as 2x Chaos no dice.

Except that's not true, it is just a certain ilvl threshold for getting the chaos. I tried with a set of rares and it was going to give me an orb of chance, everything in the set was 60+ ilvl except the gloves which were 34.

Except it was true, and your gloves were 34 which is still Normal difficulty. I tried the old 2 Chaos recipe and it didn't work. So I decided to ID it all and turn it in and the vendor gave me one Chaos. You have to consider that I turned in gear that is all from one area only. Nobody knows the exact recipe or iLVL to get the vendor to return one Chaos. Who knows maybe the vendor averages the iLVL of the gear in order to return a Chaos. In your case you had a pair of 34 gloves which netted you an orb of chance instead of a Chaos.

Since the server has been restarted several times already the recipe may have been fixed or changed if there was an error. I have not attempted to do the recipe again but will try again to see if it works with X iLVL items. The items I turned in were from Cruel Act 2.
