Hey guys, today I drop 1000 Forgotten Souls on 20 weapon reforges on both my S4 Monk and Witch Doctor in hopes of crafting (any) Ancient weapon. I discuss the cost, time investment vs. payoff, what to expect, why you should aim for at least 20 rerolls (RNG can be cruel), and more. I got trolled a bit with only one mediocre Ancient out of 20 and a normal sidegrade, but it's better than nothing. Enjoy, discuss, and good luck on your crafting!

Dumb question, hope you still see this. How did you toggle your gem off when comparing your witch doctor weapons?

Whats the difference between legendary and ancient item ? isnt it the same, or some change in stats ?

From every time I've rolled an ancient, it has never down graded to normal legendary. I don't think it allows it to be down graded. Maybe I'm wrong, but i've rolled an ancient about 8 times in a row and it's never down graded.

what a waste

If you reroll something that's under you're level will it upscale to your level?

Question for ya, if I reforge an ancient, will the result become ancient?

i broke statistics, rolled about 17-18 times, didn't get ancient :)

you can upgrade legendary in non seasonal right?

hey does anyone know for sure what happens when you reforge a legacy legendary?

I managed to get both the claw and the fist as ancient from the cube with in 4 tries each upgrading from yellows. when I have a spare i'll try to get better ones.

damn dude, you got rekt. Don't feel bad I rolled 0/40 on shenlongs... = /

the chance to get (at least) one ancient after 20 rolls is: (1-0.9^20)*100% = 87.8% (replace the 20 in the Formula for any Number of rolls)

Man... you are doing it wrong. Rolling rare to leg is a way to get any ancient weapon at really low cost(any ancient weapon i wanted took me like 500-1000DB which is an hour or two of farming). Rerolling legendary is so expensive that i would do it only for super rare items(like fire immunity amulet) or when you really have the souls to dump on only one thing.

dude you are driving me crazy. Can can just leave the item in the cube you don't have to remove it each time.

12% chance of getting 0 ancients after 20 rolls btw... so you have just under 88% chance to get at least 1 ancient after 20 rolls. After 10 rolls you have a 65% chance to get at least 1 ancient item.

That Reforge Legendary recipe should be upgrade to ancient recipe. You still have to go through stats RNG.

I really think the reforge legendary costs far too much and the chance of getting an ancient seems pretty low I usually just don't even risk it. 700 paragons and I'm yet to see a single ancient lion's claw either but I do have an almost perfect rolled ancient fist with 99% ep dmg on it.

Before 2.3 I had tons of mats banked on an alt. Thank god my hoarding paid off. I burned through those mats and pimped out about four of my characters. The RNG has been good to me lately but now that I just typed that, I will probably have a long run of bad rolls lol

I reforged a furnace 20 times trying to get ancient and didn't get shit. Reforged a lions claw around 15 times and didn't get shit. fuck rng.
