[Discussion] Old Jewelry from 2008 or 2009

Just recovered an old account and found a bunch of this old jewelry with 3-5 mods, no durability. Worth anything? A lot of it tends to have skill bonuses. Some pieces have a bunch of resists. Don't have the slightest recollection why I had all these but there's probably 30-40 pieces I saved. Generally interesting to any collectors? I doubt the combos are that useful these days but no durability might be handy...

I'd be interested if any are usable combinations like:

DCI or HCI, SSI, DI

or

DCI or HCI, 1FC, 3FCR

Let me know if you have any like that. Thanks!

I haven't the slightest idea why I kept these back in 2008 hahaha but there they are... the earliest examples of modded jewels, no durability, no artifact level, totally random numbers :D

There's probably 20-30 more but I stopped snipping them all because they are truly completely and utterly random. I clearly had some kind of big-brained vision/plan for this 15 years ago

I've also got a couple of shields with weird mods... one has 11 HCI and 11 DCI.

I've got a talisman of clean bandage summoning still 'Owned by No One" - that worth anything? I don't see an equivalent on VS on Atlantic today

The problem with these examples is they are pretty low end. The old prepatch no durability jewelry is only desirable if it's Greater/Legendary level stuff, because once you imbue it the durability will appear.

@Xoos thanks for posting the pics. Yeah, as Jynxx said unfortunately none of that is really desirable. The new first aid belts kind of negate the need for clean bandage summoning. The HCI/DCI shields were great back in the day, there are some artifact shields that have similar 1FC HCI DCI mods now. (Sign of Order, Sign of Chaos). Though who knows maybe someone would be interested in it.
You could put it all together as a lot of pre-patch items and submit to the Toad Town auction on Atlantic to see if someone bids. :)

They are all lower than ones you can imbue and make several kits of same one not to loose durability in the middle of long fight. And each will last pretty long.
So your jewels are useful for collector of a kind . May be.....
No durability jewelry still rarely spawn on troglodytes (got one about year ago) and on Miasma (1,5 years ago). Can be on other ML mobs too, never farmed most of them long enough . Don't think it was changed.

about your bandage talisman
does it have protection on it?
I just saw one a few mins ago on one of my crafters that has
60% minotaur protection
that is owned by no one

I'm curious to what stats that are on yours

it's got 71% vampire bat killer, 11% fire beetle protection, and an 18% tailoring exceptional bonus. Talisman of Clean Bandage Summoning (owned by no one)
