Automods in 1.10 - whyBish - 12-13-2003
I have been hunting for a white 3 skills amazon bow for the last few weeks now, and so far it seems to me that only +1 skills automod appears up to NM. Is +2/+3 only available in hell?

The automods require different alvls, just like other affixes. In the case of amazon weapons, +1 requires alvl 1, +2 requires alvl 40 and +3 (which cannot spawn or rares or crafted items) requires alvl 60.
Automods are defined in automagic.txt. This doesn't even appear in patch_d2.mpq; only in d2exp.mpq. That means they haven't changed since the expansion was released.

At a guess, whyBish is primarily looking for a 3 socket Matriarchal Bow (qlvl=53). So the required ilvls (to get the needed alvl) would be
+1 bow skills, alvl 1+, ilvl 1+
+2 bow skills, alvl 40+, ilvl 66+ (about the last part of nightmare and typically only from the minions in those areas for the non-magical drops).
+3 bow skills, alvl 60+, ilvl 80+ (check the threads that have the area levels listed to find the places to locate these).

Thanks both, That does explain why I haven't seen many :)
