How it drops
Alchemist's Cord is a unique for the belt slot, always on a Rune Cord base. Power grade 3 of 5: it falls as often as a standard unique. Uniques fall from the Risings; a floor drop is one only once in 100,000. Inside each tier a grade 5 falls 8× less often than a grade 1. Only one copy of a unique can be worn at a time.
Stats
Uniques roll a fixed set of affixes chosen to serve the power; only the values roll, from the depth the item drops at and its quality. Below is Alchemist's Cord exactly as the game rolls it at quality 100, at three depths.
| Quality 100 | d 100 | d 1,000 | d 10,000 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Barrier | 499 | 27,175 | 2,517,871 |
| Barrier (implicit) | +192 | +10,452 | +968,412 |
| Increased Damage over Time | +18% | +18% | +18% |
| Chance to Bleed | +12% | +12% | +12% |
| Chance to Ignite | +12% | +12% | +12% |
| Chance to Poison | +18% | +18% | +18% |
| Item score | 206 | 11,212 | 1,038,806 |
Percent affixes are fixed at a given quality; flat ones grow with depth. Quality runs 50–125% and multiplies every line.
Builds it belongs to
It lives in the Damage over time family of uniques, alongside Idol of the Tar Pits, Ouroboros Loop. Stacking uniques from one family is how a mechanic is pushed past what affixes alone allow.
