Stonebinders Cuffs of Aclarity?

[Malgor]

Or is it alacrity?

Can someone post a screenshot of these? They are my ultimate goal for my Templar, but after about 50 gorgon sister runs today I have yet to see anything but the stonebinder sash and crown (green).

Thank you.

Or are they just Stonebinder's Cuffs? And you add something to make them Aclarity or Alarcrity?

Confused and dazed in the Pythian Caves....

They just say Stonebinder Cuffs; monster infrequents don't list their affixes. The ones you want add % attack speed, though.

I spent quite a while farming for them myself today, and it's slow going. I actually got really lucky. <Edit: I think posting the drop frequency may be a violation of the no spoilers rule, so I removed it; suffice to say that 50 runs is a good starting point, but it's below average for finding a single stonebinder cuff>, and I'd speculate that the alacrity mod is only 1 in 10 or so. I've farmed 4 so far (3 today in under 100 runs), and have gotten some +hp, +slow resist, and +poison resist ones. No luck on the haste, though.

It helps to use the Monsters x3 mod if you're not already.

I just installed the 3x mod - Do you clear all of the Pythian Caves or just the 3 sisters?

[Malgor]

I'm not so lucky with these - lol - you got 3!

I'm gonna track how long it takes me to get one and I'll post it in this post.

Actually, the chance to get the Alacrity suffix is about 1 in 50 according to kalyan's MI thread. The chance to get any attack speed increasing suffix is about 1 in 20. I found 8 SBC so far, 3 yesterday and 5 today. No luck with the suffix though.

I did 600 runs to get my single pair. No they didnt have alacrity.
It is just luck.

Galefury -

Are you using any mods? And if so what are the settings you are using?

[Galefury]

I'm using x2. Like xmax, except it's much better for boss runs. Gives me twice the regular monsters, 3 times the boss monsters. A 9 gorgon run takes me about twice as long as a 3 gorgon run, so I get about 50% more efficiency.

[Malgor]

Okay I'm using Xmax with a 3x modifier and it gives me 3x all mobs.

I'm only killing the sisters and it takes me about 5 minutes per run, but after 33 runs so far today no cuffs. LOTS of Gorgon cuffs, but no Stonebinder's yet.

I'm guessing the GREEN GORGON CUFFS are the placeholder for Stonebinder's?

[Galefury]

5 minutes per run is pretty slow. Just run past the enemies on the way to the queens, and don't pick up yellows. That speeds things up a whole lot. And if you have another character that could kill them faster you might want to use that one. It's no problem to move the cuffs to a different char after getting them, so use the char that can kill them fastest to get them.
