Stats are random, though the Nobleman's (holy) amulet is potentially one of the best in the game.

Save before you do the holy item sacrifice, then after choosing the amulet, quicksave before running your mouse cursor over it (or hitting the alt key) to identify it. That way you can quickload a few times to see what kind of stats you can get (save if you get something good).
If a few tries doesn't yield stats much better than what you have, you can reload the save before the sacrifice and try the sword or dagger.

who among the wise developers thought of making all stats of items randomly generated?.....it just make me mad to think the number of times i've reloaded just because the stats of the holy item( in the holy item quest) doesn't stand up to all the troubles i had in completing it.

why oh why didn't the developers at least made the stats of unique or special items permanent or fixed.

it makes me mad to hear that player X got an out of this world stats on a special item while i got a freakingly low stat on the same item.

whew!!! i just want to get that out of me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

i think that they made the stats random so that you could choose what weapon you want to use. it wouldn't be any fun if there was just one ultimate weapon.

well, its not fun either to get a low quality item after doing all the job. and hell, if it is fun to reload and reload just to have the stats that you like.

Espessially when you're on reload nr 511 (read fiftyeleven) and you still havn't got anything of value! Let me tell you, random stats is just irritateing. If you hadn't got this you'd been forced to stick with the fact that the sword of gods isn't even strong enought to cleave a straw of grass, then I think you WOULD stick with it. Out of lack of choice I mean.
