Many players will try to chase that rare sword or unique chest item, but there’s a big problem with that approach. Players in a level 30 zone at Clvl 50 will get the level 50 drop table. Though you can encounter many vendors who offer D2R gambling, the zone level does not affect the outcome. The quality of items is determined entirely by the level of the character used when gambling. Also, drop level is determined by characters. So if you want a modifier that’s restricted to level 35+ zones, you need to gamble with a level 35 character.Ĭommon mistakes that persist from the old version of the game include the assumption that buying out the gambling screen increases the odds of unique items spawning, it does not. If you’re after a specific modifier, it’s best to exceed the area level that the item drops in normally when gambling.
The best way to approach is to know what base item you want, and what area level the modifiers you want drop in. There’s no definitive answer as to when to gamble since it depends on what you’re trying to gamble for.
