I'm considering the idea of not picking up rares anymore. I sell 5+ screens worth of rares a night for 200-300k. Why? It wont make me rich. And all I've found this week are two items that sold for 275k each.
So if you get 200-300k per night, why wouldn't you do this? After 10 nights you'd average 2.5M just for doing what you normally do, and you have a chance to get items that sell for a decent amount on the AH. I guess you'll never get into investing as most investment opportunities are for medium to long-term grown. Just because something isn't a get-rich-quick operation doesn't mean it's not worth it.
OT: I only pick up rares; lvl 62 and 63 Armor, all jewelry, Legendaries, lvl 61+ 1h weapons, and lvl 63 2h weapons. I've found picking up everything fills your inventory too quickly, and wastes too much time when combined with IDing them and traveling back to town frequently.
61+ 1h weapons with 1.4 attack speed or higher
61+ bracers
62+ helms
61+ pants
61+ gloves
all jewelry
all the rest isn't worth it. vile wards makes shoulders irrelevant. witching hour/ik belt/etc make rare belts crappy. too many awesome leg/set boots. 2h weapons are obsolete due to skorns, armors suck as well.
trifecta gloves/jewelry are still decently priced.
pants with main stat/vit/ar/armor/2 sockets are still awesome.
bracers can be worth a lot with main stat/vit/ar/5-6% crit
but the items i look for most are 1h weapons with good speed. they are the only rares that consistently sell well with decent rolls.
I'm posting this here for some of you to suck on.....
Found during Butcher run. Leaving stones unturned will cause you to miss out on great fortunes. Tell me you've ever seen i60 Dex boots this nice. They look.....good.....on my Phys Monk.
I still pick up all rares, mainly because of the changes to how affixes are rolled. On occasion I leave shields and quivers on the ground, but since I don't have the ilvls memorized yet, I find it faster to just pick up everything and ID rather than mouse over to see ilvl, then decide to pick up or not. I really should just print out or write out the list of ilvls for weapons so I can stop picking up ilvl 58-60 weapons since they're pretty much guaranteed to be low dps, even with good rolls.
ilvl 63 helms, chest, pants, shoulder, bracers, boots, belt
All gloves
All jewelry
Blacksmith plans I don't have
Jeweler designs I don't have
Legendaries and sets
ilvl 61+ 1-hand class-unspecified weapons
Ilvl 63 1-hand class-specified weapons (don't ask why I do this)
Hellion crossbows and Revenant bows
Everything else not in that list remains on the ground.

Too low dex roll for my taste. Not that "amazing" as you claim..
First off, when you use "" marks, it insinuates that I said the word palced inside of those marks. I never said "amazing".
You don't seem to understand how those boots spit in the eye of what many here have been saying, do you?
Go ahead, look what similar boots like that are listed for @ the GAH (us). Now tell me, how many i60's do you see on that short list?
High dual resistance, vit, MS and over 220 dex.....don't be so quick to write those off. Your post was ridiculous. Embarrassingly so.

It's a nice roll for a pair of boots but it in no way "spits in my face"... It shows that if you grind enough and choose to pick up low level items you will eventually find an item that might make a mil or so on the AH. I would rather speed my grind up and find a few Legendary items that will net me 100 mill or so. It would take a dozen or more of those to make up for the two Firewalkers I found yesterday.
It's a nice find, I won't take that away from you but it just that, a nice find, nothing to hang your hat on.

A million? No sale.
Stick your Epeen up someone else's ass.
With all due respect, of course.
I really get sick of all these elititist #@$% acting like this game should be played like we're for-profit efficiency machines. Most people here have never seen a hundred million gold. Many people here would likely consider similar boots as an upgrade.

Nice... And here I thought I was being respectful enough to deter you from acting like a child... And yeah, a mil or so as I said. If you want to dream that's up to you but many of us who farm more efficiently don't have time to pick up the trash and to say that your decent roll spits in our faces is a bit too presumptuous.
Well, I am EU so no idea about US, though what I can say that for those stats. You can buy similar boots for like 300k the last time I checked. You may be correct that there isn't many i60's there with those stats. But the point in this topic for me at least was that which item levels has biggest potential being good for selling nor being good upgrades. Your argument in my mind was invalid, since those boots that you used for example doesnt fit in on neither categories
I really doubt the EU market is as dumb as the US to the point where boots like those are worth nothing.
Find me Boots like those for my Dex characters (and let me know if you find those for Int/Str as well) and I'll gladly pay 1 mil each, you can have the 700k bonus gold if you find them for 300k.

I do apologize for being a bit rash. I just find some people a bit.... pedantic about the game sometimes.
In regard to grinding for Legends....brother, I've found so many Legends I can't count them anymore. Yesterday I logged in to start my Act 3 run. Hadn't killed anything yet, zero NV and I accidentally ran into a Gob...had to kill the bastard. He drops a Tyrael's Might.
No sockets of course, making it worth far less than those i60 boots I found later. With 3 sockets of course, Tyraels is worth assloads. After finding what I can only guess is 40+ Legends, my biggest GAH sale to date is 16.5 mil gold (i62 Rare). That White Whale item eludes me, so I check every 60+ just in case. As it was, those boots beat out the Blackthorne's I had been using by a mile.
I was just making a point that inevitably people will miss great finds if they narrow their search to such a short list. I'm sure those sporting hundreds of millions in their accounts may not find cause to search so thoroughly, but I have reason to.
In closing I would love to see a screen shot of similar 220 Dex Dual Res trifecta MS boots for anywhere even remotely close to 1million listed on any regions GAH. Provide a screenshot and I'll eat crow. HINT; It's not going to happen.
Here's mine;
There are exactly 14 listed meeting the criteria (and I didn't even include the dual resistance) and the cheapest start at 9mm with no buyout (single AR mod, no dual res).
2 handers, quivers, and shields. Oh and spirit stones. I have never ever gotten one that had dex. For some reason I guess monks at one point were an Int class cause every single one I have found always has Int on it.
9Seems like the prices has gone up since the last time i checked (~3 weeks ago), yet the prices arent overhelming by any means. I dont wanna argue with you. Lets just agree that we have different views on this matter.
I wouldn't want to argue with me either.
BTW....you forgot to enter the proper values....I suppose I know why.
To be clear, I wasn't trying to celebrate what I thought was a 2billion gold score. I was just offering some hope to people out there that may pass up items such as Doom Treads because they maybe mistakenly think there is no way they could roll with any value.
I was excited because I scored a serious upgrade off of a drop (which is rare). I could sell these for 10-20 million without even a days wait.
And before you go oh, but you didnt put correct value on all resistance! As a monk I dont feel that I need resistance stats that much.
Surely I'm not the only one that finds this statement to be the most dishonest, sneaky and misguided rebuttal in the history of this fine forum?
I know what you did. You know what you did. You DID enter the correct values beforehand and you saw the same god damn thing I did. So you changed the search query to better fit your painfully skewed opinion.
I do not apologize for being so rash. You and that other fella mocked me like I'm some dummy nub. I provided empirical evidence that suitably shot down the comments about them only fetching a million coins.
I would respect you had you admitted you were wrong. Instead, you set about to ploy an escape route out of your flawed statements.
Per the thread topic; If you pass up i60 rares like you're some impoverished Chinese Legendary farmer, you're missing out on the fun of discovering very valuable items.

Legs are 99.9% of my income and have been for quite some time.
I just don't find rares to be worth the wasted xp/hour
