Diablo II streamer finds 1-in-3-million item drop, instantly sells it for laughs
news.movim.eu / ArsTechnica · Friday, 9 February - 18:10
The Zod rune has a mythical place in Diablo II lore. The incredibly rare socketed item, which can make other in-game gear indestructible, has just a 1 in 2,987,183 chance of dropping from the game's highest class of enemy, according to one calculation .
To this day, it's not hard to find dedicated players admitting online that they've never seen a legitimate copy of the rune despite years of play (though duplicated versions made using glitches can be less rare).
So when Diablo streamer and speedrunner Kano saw a Zod rune drop during a livestreamed Diablo II: Resurrected run Wednesday (as noticed by GamesRadar ), it was something of a legendary moment. And when Kano sold that rune for a relatively unimportant 35,000 in-game gold mere moments later, it was something of a legendary troll.
