Spoiler alert!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't read further if you want to be surprised by an addition to the collector's edition even though I didn't put in a lot of details.
I found a great new location for finding Deathlord’s Armor, etc. It’s the hut that is accessed during the quest for the codex that is given by the new NPC in Skuldoon.
Once inside the cabin, the FIRST time I opened the chest on the left I found Deathlord’s Armor. Wow. I was so happy that I saved my game and didn’t try to open it again to see what else might pop out.
I moved on to the other container and found a really good selection of armor including Black Plate and a slew of other interesting pieces of equipment. I was impressed by the number and variety of uniques that dropped from this chest. I ended up selecting a belt I had never seen, but my notes about the piece are at school. This chest also always spawns one rune.
Both chests are level 12, but are easy to open by bashing them. They require only as much strength as a level 8 chest needs for bashing. You need a strength of 73 to do this with a 64% chance of success. It's a lot quicker than using time crystals.
It’s for sure that the Collector’s Edition gives much better drops, mostly from the new characters and chests, but some from places and characters that already were in 1.4
