The Truth about Albino Rhoa Feathers

I believe I have discovered the use for these feathers.

Anyone in possession of one is driven to madness trying to discover it's purpose.

I noticed this when my friend found one. Beforehand he was a normal player, completely rational, played about 4 hours a day. Just your ordinary guy.

Now... well let's just say he is on when I wake, he is on when I go to sleep, he is on when I get off work and he constantly tells me of his new theories and items he is hunting to reach that goal.

I try to reason with him and explain it is an easteregg like a fishing pole or pants in this game. He dismisses that and continues to be a total loon about the feather.

If I ever happen to find a feather I will not pick it up because I see what it does to people that hold them. I will consider it a bad omen and log off for the day and wait for the dark energies of the white feather to dissipate before playing further in wraeclast.

in hc when you die you can revive with white feather just right click

2) Does Diablo 3 have some feathers that are used for something? If so, might be meant as sort of an easter egg.

Just one short note to this one... I'm not totally sure, but I bet that these feathers existed before D3 :)

Oh, and welcome to the infinite loop, good luck >:->

The feathers have nothing to do with another game.

My own theory (which has probably been mentioned already) is that it is part of a recipe for a secret Rhoa level a bit like Diablo and it's secret Cown level.

Regardless, I always keep my feather in my inventory, just incase I need it :)

im sorry if i put life into this thread again, others might have already lost hope, or others may have put the myth to rest. but for me who has delved into the matter just hours ago, i refuse to lose hope.

ok, starting out with the facts that i have read:
*confirmed that it is not associated with any recipes of any kind with currencies, maps, items, gears, etc.
*it is gotten thru a method that is not normal, hard way, even. hunting a weak monster on a low level map seems to make it less of its worth that it is (even 1c seems to be too much of what seems to be a useless item. for now)
*from what i see, at least 1 could drop in a days worth of hunting the legendary albino rhoa. but the albino rhoa, seeing it is not a unique mob in a way, makes it something rare as a rare mob that has specific qualities (maybe even as less rare with a mob with a wealthy modifier).


*AND THIS, someone said that its supposed to give out a certain amount of quantity dropped by monsters.

THIS is what have sparked my interest.

i ask that truth seekers hold on and steadfast, as we may be close to knowing the true use of the albino rhoa feather.

i seek the help of those who has a full stack of these rhoa feathers, if it indeed does add that sweet sweet quantity of items dropped by monsters.

*a thorough (0 remaining monsters) run of a farming map or just any maps capable of an individual to finish it as fast and clean as possible. (ledge, docks, even lunaris 2 and 3)
-10 runs without the feathers
-10 runs with the feathers in the inventory

as we all know, quantity of items can be noticed in various ways as to noticing the normal gears or currencies(I KNOW, some may still not believe on IIQ to affect the drop of currencies, but maybe i am one of the few who does)

i suggest that people who would, or could at least follow the format i have prepared below

WITHOUT FEATHERS
+IIQ on-hand with the character used
+MAP that was run
+currencies gotten, or maybe even item count if you would go as far as taking it into account

WITH FEATHERS IN INVENTORY
+same as above

this is not mandatory, nor i command people. it simply is a plea or call for help as i lack the capability now because i myself do not have this item.

Godspeed and thank you so much in advance for people who would confirm or log their trials on this experimentation.


FAST EDIT
also wondering if what are the four other new recipes added in 1.0.1 and 1.0.2

1.0.1


1.0.2


*i may just have missed them on gamepedia, or no one hasnt really found out the 4 recipes added on 1.0.1 and 1 added on 1.0.2, if someone do know and is kind enough to share, please do link the referrence, thanks again!

Has anyone seen the new feathers posted yet?

We need to get players with the different feather types to test out the upcoming recipes. In particular we need more arch sprigs (supposedly those are consumed) and at least one more alabaster ventrix.

It will probably take a special build to survive the rhoa stampedes, the pirahna like eternal rhoa swarms, and the discharger beasts.
I wonder if the five headed boss will drop something special? Whatever aoe attack that boss has, we know it will have gmp.

Where do I go from here?
