Hello.
I shall offer my opinions, not that I am any force with this variant.
Attika: "#1. Are Oils in or out?"
Since potions are not ruled out, I would say oils are in. After all, they are all unique.
Attika: "#2. Are Runes useable or no?"
I would say yes, but perhaps only the two greater runes (and the rune of stone) since there are lesser ones for fire and lightning.
Attika: "#3. New spells: useable or no?
Berserk -- it is magic based?
Immolation(would it replace Elemental as the Noblest fire based spell?)
Reflect
Search
Warp
And isn’t Apoc possible on a book in Hellfire? If so, Apoc?"
Berserk definitely appears to be unique. You are charming the monsters, so it does seem magical.
I would say so, since at 21,000 gold pieces, it is the most expensive.
Reflect seems unique enough, as does search.
Warp is questionable. It teleports you, which is not exactly unique, but only to the nearest stairs. I would say no, however, for it is not unique enough. Elitists deserve the best.
And it can be used in Diablo with scrolls. I would say it is okay, for it is unique since it damages triple immunes. Furthermore, you can only get the book from one source, which is Na-Krul.
Attika: "#4. Since in Hellfire there are a number of Unique Amulets that may now drop, are "non-Golden unique" amulets now forbidden?"
Unique amulets all the way, although one reason to allow magical amulets is out of respect for the original variant. I still say just the unique amulets.
Farewell. |
