Loot's long, meandering stormshield rant

[mesmerPT]

Nice! Hunting specific uniques can be very frustrating. I think the best approach is to never hope for something in particular. Everything will come eventually when you least expect it. That's been my experience with the rarest items in the game.

Good find.
As everyone has said, you never want to hunt for just one item. It's demoralizing, but like you, I can sometimes find myself looking for just that one item, so I can share in the frustration. Though, I do also share in the merriment, as I too have found on more than one occasion the exact item I was looking for.

Gratz, man! Perserverence pays off! Enjoy that Stormshield, and the 5 more that will drop randomly for you in the near future!

Congrats for sticking with it. If you check the amount of actual runs vs the ATMA drop calculator you'll probably find that you averaged exactly what you would expect. Something like one every 2k runs.
