Set items - location Have a character that picked up 2 components of the Artic set (furs & belt) in Act 1. Haven't played DII-expansion in awhile, so my question is "are set items located in a specific place, or are they randomly generated." Would like to find the "mitts" & "horn" but do not want to hack them (i.e. use an item editor).
i believe they are all randomly generated, however if playing on normal will have a greater chance then in nm or hell to drop lower type set items as in ur case for the arctic set items....
The best droppers for them are normal Mephisto, Diablo and Baal with about 0.4% for the Horn and 0.2% for the Mitts in 1 player games with 0%MF. Among the non-boss monsters, normal cows and act 5 monsters are generally the best droppers for them.
Since you seem to be a legit single player, you might want to wander over into the single player forum or single player trading forum. You could probably easily trade something of equal value, cutting out the tedium of searching forever or uncoolness of hacking. Welcome to the forums.
Yes, welcome to the forums. You can also download a nifty program called ATMA from this site http://diabloii.net/~atma. It has a proficient drop calculator in it which alot of us tend to use to help us find particular items.
