An 8/8 dual leech rare ring and two stones of jordan with a 49% Tarnhelm in 1.04.

Full Sigon Set, Aldur armour and helm, and a pnagel. Not bad, really, but I won't try to move stuff that takes up more than my inventory all at once again, lol... stupid realm down...

To rectify this later on, when you xfer ask a friend to hold it till you come back. It may take a bit nore time, but, (you will still have your items if anything happens). I learned my lesson with a realm down. On this I lost 2x BotD Zerkers, CoH, Arreat's Face (Umed), and something else I don't remember, for a frenzy barb I was making back before the reset. I almost cryed. All of this was just laying on the ground like I always did before.

Man, you guys don't know how to appreciate the value of the shit from back in the day.

Everyone needs to go back to patch 1.04 and play it through and realize how much better the game was back then.

Wtf? Where did that come from?

Anyway, my worst loss was only some res charms... but they were good, such as: 3x 5 all res sc's; 1x 7 all res lc; 1x 15 all res gc; 1x 14 all res gc (a few of them had other mods I don't remember). It was annoying because they were the only source of additional res for the character they were intended for.

Nowadays, when I have to solo-xfer I only do 1 or 2 "godlies" at a time.

It came from the fact that all your biggest losses are from shit in the newer paatches.

So what? Is this a competition? Also, there's nothing in the posts previous to your comment that implies these people didn't play 1.04, nor that they don't appreciate the value of those items.

I've lost items of greater value before, but those charms I mentioned earlier were actually needed at the time so it upset me the most. That was about a month ago.

Socketing a Sig Shield with a chipped diamond is pretty funny.

Ahhhh the good old days .... I miss .09 big time. I guess that counted then, since almost everything was duped or bugged. Of course now that stuff is not around now, so ....

At the end of .09 I had a bowzon with all duped/bugged gear (like WF ect.) but, that all vanished ..... grrrrr.

my biggest loss in an xfer was at the end of 1.10, i was going to start a new account, so i was stripping -all- my characters and muling to a new account, stripped EVERYONE (full godly bowazon, smiter, hammerdin, ele druid, mf tals blizz sorc, countess light sorc and mules of xtra runewords) and it took me a while (was bs'n with a friend in game)

eventually when i picked up all my gear i realized i was missing a LOT of shit, turns out d2 did a game sweep and was clearing things off the ground, and my items poofed (thats why in cow games after theyve been open and clear for a while theres barely anys hit on the ground) i lost baout half my gear that day.
