Talk:Stone of Jordan (Diablo III)

Trivia
I'm wary of removing it entirely, but I'm a bit iffy about the trivia section. I'm fine with the worth of an item being stated and whatnot, but to claim that an item is one of the most valuable ones in a game seems a bit...iffy, to say the least. Seems to be stretching things.--Hawki (talk) 09:03, May 27, 2015 (UTC)

 * The item is trivia worthy, but the current trivia is not worthy of the item. The Stone of Jordan was a notorious ring in Diablo II due to it being duped to such a degree that Blizzard added it to two Horadric Cube recipes and the Über Diablo spawn in an effort to remove many of the illegitimate rings, which could not be picked out from legitimate ones, from circulation. I don't know why neither of the articles on it mention this, and I can't find where on the wiki it does (I'm sure it was around here somewhere). I'm quite certain the description is referencing the use of the stone for the Über Diablo spawn, not it's monetary or stat value. Unfortunately, I don't know much more about it than what I wrote here, perhaps Breywood would know more about it and could add a proper trivia section.


 * If it's a case of dev history, I don't think it needs refs - there's many cases where we state what occurred during development. The item history mentioned above seems worthy of the D2 article. In turn, the D3 one can reference it, though preferably not repeat it verbatim.--Hawki (talk) 10:21, May 27, 2015 (UTC)

 * My apologies for not getting back sooner.  I've been out of the loop since much of the info of Diablo III has been added.  I believe the description lends more to the fact it was the most sought-after ring in Diablo II, oddly even more than Bul-Kathos, given how Life tends to be more important than Mana.  People will trade a SoJ for an Ist, but I'm pretty sure you couldn't get more than an Um for Bul-Kathos.  I'll peek at the Diablo II version and see if there's something I can add.  Here's one article for reference


 * My vote is to place this into SoJ2 history. It's worth noting, but belongs more to the Diablo II ring article. Pryamus (talk) 19:18, June 19, 2016 (UTC)

 * I didn't think there was anything to be voted on. The specifics belong on the D2 article and the significance of the D3 description belongs on this article.
