Crafting Amulets

I remember reading somewhere that a char has to be at cLvl 90 in order to get the best mods (+2 skills ...) when crafting ammys.
Can anyone confirm that?

i think you need to be 89 for a chance to get +2 skils and 90 something for a better chance.

No.

To get +2 skills, ((character level / 2) + (ilvl of amulet / 2)) must be at least 90. Both those divisions round down.

So if you get an amulet from Hell Baal, it will be level 99, and you only need to be level 82 to have a shot at +2 skills if you craft it. If you get an amulet from Act 1 Normal, nothing will salvage it.

to be absolutely sure you have to be clvl 92 and to get your raw amulets by gambling in NM or Hell.

Actually, you'd need to be 93 - if you were level 92, you might gamble an ilvl 87 amulet, and [92/2]+[87/2] = only 89.

Also, it doesn't matter where you gamble. The ilvl caps in Normal only apply to shopping not gambling - I just gambled an amulet in Act 1 Normal with my lvl 73 barb and got an ilvl 74 result.

I actually craft alot with my level 83 Necro. I have never gotten any +2 to all skills amulets but I do get +2 to certain skill groups quite often.
