So much so, that they wouldn&#8217;t dare to release its third part until 2012. One of the most defining aspects of the game is its equipment system, which was divided, among others, into normal, magical, rare, and unique. <strong>And &#8220;unique&#8221; is, almost literally, unique<\/strong>, as Kano discovered while playing the other day on <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/twitch-would-disappear-tomorrow-if-it-werent-for-amazon-they-are-still-not-profitable\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Twitch<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kano was attempting a world record focused on murder when suddenly, a Zod Rune appeared at his feet. <em>&#8220;A Zod Rune! It&#8217;s the first one I&#8217;ve found, by the way&#8221;<\/em>, he said to his fans in the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/telegram-can-also-copy-whatsapp-and-this-time-it-has-done-it-with-privacy-improvements\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">chat<\/a>. Then, <strong>he found a vendor and sold it for 35000 pieces of gold<\/strong>, which is the in-game currency that you can later spend on buying more items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Diablo II Resurrected - Directo #1 Espa\u00f1ol - BETA - Impresiones  - Primeros Pasos - PS5\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-Nw8FKdp1yk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s not something strange per se, <strong>there are websites specifically dedicated to buying and selling items in &#8216;Diablo II&#8217;<\/strong>, but what is surprising is that it happened in the middle of a <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/whether-you-believe-it-or-not-baldurs-gate-3-just-happened-in-four-minutes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">speedrun<\/a> with an item that appears once every 2,987,183 times. Is it worth 35,000 pieces of gold that cannot be exchanged for real money (or maybe it is, but it&#8217;s not worth it enough)? You decide. Kano, by the way, couldn&#8217;t beat the world record, but at least he got something even better: the admiration of an entire chat.
