Best items you've found in strange places?

[Slayer_X64]

Ive run into a few glitches on both the PC and the PSX version of Diablo, especially in singleplayer regarding the Lachdanan quest where I will go down to grab the golden Elixer, and instead I find an exact, identified copy of my shield lying on the ground somewhere in the dungeon instead, except that it has 0/0 durability. If you equip the shield, it is for all intents and purposes unbreakable, as whenever it is damaged, the durability just drops into negative values. If you save the game and then reload/start a new game, THEN you end up with a shield that has -255/0 durability or something like that. However, if you go to grizwold and try to repair items while you have the shield in your inventory, the game will just instantly crash. I remember there are some wonky glitches with the repair skill which also modify the durability of the item, such as resetting it to 0/0.

And because of this bug, I've ended up aquiring things like indestructable high AC tower / gothic shields with a dexterity suffix, which are pretty awesome. However, I've encountered this bug probably about 3 times within the last 10 years, and every single time it has always been a shield that is affected, and it ALWAYS has to do with the Lachdanan quest. But it is certainly a nice bug since it allows you to have a good powerful shield with limitless durability.

If it ever happens again, I'll screen cap it and put it up here. Maybe if I can, I'll even do Lachdanan runs to try to record a video of it. I found it to be quite amusing.
