Stone of Jordan

I know that there are some people out there who will think that this may sound really stupid. But I'm new to this kind of stuff and I just want to ask a question. Is there a way to get a Stone of Jordan ring besides just praying that an enemy will drop it?

Not that I know of other than trading for one.

You can do Nightmare Andariel runs to get one.

She cannot drop the higher Ilvl rings at that point so your odds are better at getting one. You may end up killing her many times though.

I think my post was misinterpreted. I meant to say that other than one dropping the only way to get one was to trade for it. NM Andy is where I got my 2.

As this is an anti-hacking and duping site,the only three approved ways of getting an SOJ is to

1. Wait for a monster to drop it.
2. Gamble for it.(You need a level 50 character minimum.)
3. Wait in a free game and get even more lucky.


***and frankly a lot of people might object to method 3 but it is legit.

There is one way.... gambling ive seen post about people gambling one./

Your odds of gambling any unique ring are about 1/1000. Then lower those odds for a SoJ, and its some really bad odds. Your odds are better for running NM Andy, and she'll drop you lots of other goodies along the way.

Man I've heard this running NM Andy time and time again. I don't know if I am unlucky or what, but I've killed here well over 1000 times with 400 MF sorc...no SOJ....I had to just throw my hands up and give up on it.

i believe the odds are somewhere around 1:1000 runs for NM andy to drop a SOJ, so you arent that unlucky.

So what do I need to up my chances of getting an SoJ from Andariel? Is there a specific level I should be, or is there anything I need to carry? Help a poor noob out here. Try to make your response as abbreviation-free as possible (NM Andy, Ilvl, etc), cause I don't understand very much of it.

It mostly relies on luck.

Though any% of magic find will help.

Same here, I've done tons of andy runs on HC and I haven't found a soj yet.

Andy the runningman ;-)

Regarding finding a SOJ. I've seen a page somewhere where it statistically states that u should get at soj after finding 141 unique rings from andy with 99,02% chance.
And the chance to find a soj in a 1000 games is 76.94%
so thats a h.... of a lot of runs. Happy hunting

if u want the math it's in the strategy compendium i believe.

u will have probably traded for one befor you found one yourself. imagine the stuff andi will drop in 1000 runs, u ll prolly have enugh perfect gems to trade one
