Recipes: Difference between revisions

This page lists Horadric Cube recipes in PD2, and covers what has changed from the vanilla game. Keep in mind that while many vanilla recipes are quite useful, many others are not.

Flawless Gems, Perfect Gems, and all Runes are now stackable. They can be switched between their stacked and unstacked forms by cubing them. Some other items are newly stackable as well, and those items can be stacked/unstacked in the same way.

Larzuk's Puzzlebox is a new item in PD2 that adds 2-4 sockets to two-handed weapons or 1-2 sockets to other items, with equal chances for the number of sockets added. It has a droprate that is similar to a high rune (same [https://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Rune_Group TC] as <span class="d2-orange">Gul</span>/<span class="d2-orange">Vex</span>) and can be quite valuable since it can be used alongside [[Worldstone Shard|Worldstone Shards]] to get items with both corruption modifiers ''and'' multiple sockets.

Jewel Fragments are new items in PD2 - they have no affixes and cannot be socketed into equipment, but can stack up to 50 and be used like jewels for recipes.

Pandemonium Talisman, Vision of Terror, and Voidstone are new items in PD2, as are the ingredients for Vision of Terror and most of the ingredients for Voidstone. Characters can no longer freely exit/re-enter Uber Tristram while enemies remain within, and the same applies to the new Diablo-Clone fight. Uber Organs now have a 45% droprate instead of 100%.

** '''Prime Evil Soul''' drops from Diablo/Baal in Hell difficulty (1% chance - unconfirmed)

** '''Black Soulstone''' drops from [[Monsters#Ubers|Uber Tristram]] bosses (10% chance)

** '''Pure Demonic Essence''' drops from [[Maps|Map]] bosses (1% chance - unconfirmed)

** '''Splinter of the Void''' drops from [[Maps|Shadow of Mendeln]] map event (5% chance)

** '''Trang-Oul's Jawbone''' drops from undead enemies (1:300k chance in Hell, less in other difficulties); can also be crafted using '''Ancient Bone Fragments''' which drops from those same enemies (1:100k chance in Hell, less in other difficulties)

Killing the Cow King will no longer prevent you from opening the Secret Cow Level. Uber Keys now have slightly different colors to help differentiate them, and are now also dropped by Blood Raven, Bloodwitch, and Izual in Hell difficulty. Uber Keys now have a 100% droprate rather than an average of 8.2% - 1/14 (Terror), 1/11 (Hate), 1/12 (Destruction).

* '''Key of Terror''' drops from [[Monsters#The_Countess|The Countess]] and [[Monsters#Blood_Raven|Blood Raven]]

* '''Key of Hate''' drops from [[Monsters#The_Summoner|The Summoner]] and [[Monsters#Bloodwith_the_Wild|Bloodwitch]]

* '''Key of Destruction''' drops from [[Monsters#Nihlathak|Nihlathak]] and [[Monsters#Izual|Izual]]

Worldstone Shards can be used to corrupt equipment and maps, either adding a corruption modifier or sockets (if applicable), or turning the item into a random <span class="d2-yellow">rare</span> of the same type. Maps always gain a corruption modifier when corrupted. Items cannot be corrupted more than once.

Tainted Worldstone Shards are dropped by [[Monsters#Rathma|Rathma]] and can be used to corrupt [[Annihilus]]. They cannot be corrupted more than once.
