Diablo – Are stats totally random when crafting

diablo-3

When you craft an item (Shoulders, Gloves, etc…) are the stats affected by the type of item, or they are absolutely random?

For example, the other day I tried to craft some gloves, and I was getting Intelligence and Dexterity all the time, but I thought it was totally random!

Each item you craft randomly selects an appropriate number of properties, based on the levels of the item/blacksmith. As it's totally random, you could very well end up with the same stats on the same items, but it's just luck of the draw (or bad luck, if you're not getting what you want on the item).

For example, last night I created a yellow helm that had 3 properties:

I created another helmet right after and got

  • 11 Intelligence
  • 12 Vitality
  • +3 damage on hit (I think, drawing a blank on the last property)

Anyway, the point is, yes, it's entirely random.
