CURSED item identification
I have yet to find any cursed items.
Some guy wants to buy them.
Can i tell they are cursed ahead of time like i can tell green or blue enchantments?
Or do i need to keep wasting scrolls on equipment i wouldnt normally identify?

I found a cursed amulet today. On top of its regular stats, it lowered max HP by 22, but added +10% Magic Power.

No way to know before using an identify scroll, you'll find them on crypts mostly.

I find there's a higher chance of getting cursed item drops from sarcophagi and ghost enemies, in higher-level crypts. Just open all the stone coffins and kill the ghosts that sometimes spawn when you do.
There is nto much reason to look for cursed items on purpose. Very very minor chance you will get beneficial curse on item you would equip anyway, otherwise dont bother.

If you talk about Ol Crowley in RWT than he just buy them unlkike any other trader - but the price is kinda low and there is not any benefit or special reward in that - in msot cases it is easier and you get same/more, just by disencahnt and sell to any trader (that said he pay good money for some unique items in game - special violet uniques and some quest items.. in general there is nto much to lose ignoring it completely though)

There are cursed items with 4 positive effects so I would not say they are not worth bothering with.

Some of them are incredibly good, yes.

But as usual, any particular piece of cursed equipment is highly unlikely to be compatible with your build. It would have to increase stuff that you want and not decrease stuff that you need.

And I don't know any way of actively looking for cursed stuff (aside from identifying everything you find).
