+ or - 20% on the crit chance? That makes a huge difference in price.
10K of health point? That makes a huge difference too. It is about +277 vitality. Any gear that gives you additional +100 vitality costs at least 2m. And you need at least 3 gears to make up that +277 vitality.

And be specific on "85% similar stats".
Show us what you bought under 1M, we can tell those are good gears or not.

20% crit chance is BIG difference

The thing is... and I am wondering, do we actually know what are good gears? How qualified are we? After all, we are the same people saying nobody can do it for under 2m. The same people who overpay for STR VIT RES pieces and never consider the important ancillary stats.

For example, look at the gloves. Be honest with yourself and think if you would spend money on this weird mix of affixes. Yet it turns out to have all the useful underrated stuff that helped him clear elite packs in Act 3.

We can't get those rare gears with 1M. That's for sure.
i.e. 200K for 800+dps rare weapon with crit dmg?

P/S The glove attributes don't look weird. I have the quite similar gloves, with higher armor & +crit damage.

this is like a weakened version of the pioneer vids (which almost spent nothing on the AH).

but this one contain all the info about what to shop for etc. nice!

Crit chance and crit damage, isn't that expensive?

I owned 2 gloves, with crit chance and crit damage together + AR.
1st one cost me 500K. Sold it shortly after I found another gloves with better attributes.
2nd one cost me 3m.

+/- = plus minus = around ... so it means i can only get around 20% of critical chance (basically was becuz im using sword rather than axe, as u know axe got extra 10% critical chance)... for the vit.. it is difficult.. as those eq he posted were with real high vit.. u cant get anything with that stat in 1m.. atleast i couldnt find it within the budget and i searched everything with max 100k gold.. so what i mean 85% is that i can get roughly the same AR, critical dmg% and Str..dmg still on goin as i got few eq still bidding.. hopefully can get to 24k.. as now im around 17k which there are 3 items pending in bidding.. to 99% similar stat u really need to be very very lucky.. i will update u guys again.. as tonight im goin for trip .. will only back on sunday night.. and also bidding few items that try to match the stats n 1m gold..

i played a warrior before as well and i will be the first one to call bullshit on this. that 1 hand alone would have cost more than a million already. if he only camp the AH for 1 hour and get all his gear its probably someone is feeding him the stuff.. no way in hell ppl can get pricing on items like his for 1 mil (unless u camp for weeks/months)

after i see his gear, i would still have to say he is quite a good player (Other than the 1 mil bullshit)
to down act 3 and 4 with 22k damage and 500-700 resist (with no life on hit) is some feat.
