Ease of getting running on v4Beta

[topazg]

Out of interest, have there been obvious balance changes on the item drop code pre 1500' in the last few iterations of the game? It's possible I've been insanely lucky, but I've got RoSpeed +7, dragon scale mail, RBase shield, FA gloves, FA boots, Westernesse weapon, WoExAttacks(+2) waiting for another SI source before I swap in, and am finding good quality non-artifact stuff a lot more than I remember?

Balance has certainly moved around a lot recently - to me, the speed ring looks lucky, but the rest is fairly unsurprising.

Found some boots of Speed now too ... rather enjoying this return character tbh. A couple of glitchy bugs found, but nothing overly serious:

Someone found PDSM at 400' in the latest comp... Usually, you're lucky if you find one in your entire life!

Character life, I presume.

PDSM that early is very lucky indeed. I think that early best DSM I have found was MH. Fixed the rPoison problem nicely.
