(1) For crafted items, output_ilvl = floor(input_ilvl/2) + floor(clvl/2).Since this is a point that the responses so far have either ignored or gotten wrong, I'm going to go over the matter of ilvl requirements. If 91 were halfway to 99 then it would take less than 2 days to hit 99, as you can hit 90 before you log off on reset day if you have a good team (very long sitting though lol)ĭid the math including penalties on a different topic a while ago:ĩ7 to 98 takes slightly longer than 1 to 97 (only 9% longer than 90-97, but it's just 1 lvl), so ~17 times as long as 1-90ĩ8 to 99 takes more than three times as long as 97 to 98 (so more than 50 times as long as 1-90)Īs said in the last point, just the last level of 98 to 99 takes more than 50 times as many runs as 1-90. This penalty means you get a blanket <1% exp from everything at 98, for example.

Not only is there the monster level penalty, there is also the inherent clvl penalty that reduces all exp (other than ancients) by a huge amount, which is implemented at clvl 70 and increases as you get closer to 99. I recommend Mrllamasc on YouTube: Įdit: linked video and thank you u/ChthonVII for correcting me! There are more details online if you're looking for a specific attribute. That being said, clvl93 is ideal, but remember that gambling has a range, so even at clvl90, you still have a chance that the item you gambled is greater than ilvl90, but the odds are not in your favor. The correct formula for the crafted item level is: But really you still have a decent chance at lvl 90 or 91. To guarantee that you have a chance at this, you need to gamble amulets and craft with a clvl of 93 (93-5=88). So if you want to make a Caster amulet that has +2 to all skills, it needs to have an ilvl of at least ~88~ 90. When gambling an item, the item level (ilvl) is your clvl +4 to -5. It's based off of your character level (clvl).
