Oh man, there are moments in Diablo II which reminds you how sad the specific loot system they're going to implement in Diablo III will probably be.

On Act V, Arreat Plateu fighting a horde of Night Clans. One of them drops a Rune Staff (Exceptional Tier), the very first one I ever see and immediatly it's an Unique (Skull Collector Rune Staff), and it has amazing modifiers for a MF Sorc. So I go into ATMA V (a program I have to check drop rates) and calculate the rarity of this drop and my jaw drops...

Night Clan (Night Clan) goatman7 (NM) Arreat Plateau 1:1085590


Now, if only the game will be this generous and drop the Unique Shako the first time I see one .

Edit: Another one! Unique Sharktooth Armor, Toothrow (the very first Sharktooth Armor to drop for me) by a Dark Archer on the Crystalline Passage

Dark Archer (Dark Archer) cr_archer7 (NM) Crystalline Passage 1:322985

Edit 2: And another one....Unique Trellised Armor, Iron Pelt again by a Dark Archer on the Crystalline Passage

Dark Archer (Dark Archer) cr_archer7 (NM) Crystalline Passage 1:630348

So this makes 3 extremely rare drops in a 10 minute window....when sometimes I don't get even a Rare drop in 2 hours or more. I think I just hit DII jackpot
