"Ladder Recipe" recipes work in single player, and for ladder chars on the realms. They do not work for non-ladder realm chars.

1 Fal Rune (#19)
+ 1 Um Rune (#22)
+ Perfect Sapphire
+ Exceptional rare weapon

Elites the Rare Weapon

These recipes upgrade the item type without changing the Rare mods, just the base item stats stats.

You could turn a rare Gothic Bow into a Rare Hydra Bow, for instance. Adding damage to weapons and defense to armor is the point of these.

Str and Dex and Clvl reqs may increase as well.


Even if it is Ladder only, mostly everyone will be playing that anyway.
