Best Unique EndGame Diablo 2
The best unique Diablo 2 items: to easily recognize which ones to equip according to your build or to trade
Preamble
The purpose of this guide is to show you the useful items but also those that are of value. It would be a shame to sell a two socket COA to Akara! You will therefore have:
- the purpose of the item, for which build to equip it
- classification by type of object
- an estimate of the price, the prices varying a lot in particular on the beginning of D2R, I give you an estimate rather than a price
- affordable: costs a "pre-hr" rune, such as Pul, Um, Mal or Ist
- expensive: around one HR
- very expensive: several HR
I'm not going to list the unique items for you, just the ones that are useful for the EndGame!
