THE SINGER - A Diablo Movie Coming Soon™

THE SINGER, the movie I didn't know I wanted to make until I started editing this.

I love trailers and always wanted to make trailers but the opportunity rarely arrives. But if Diablo has taught me anything, is that you can craft some of the best stuff if you gamble enough pgems. So there you have it in all its incoherence.

Diablo 2 1.0 Pt 4

Some things never change - act 3 has been pain in the ass. Not surprised. I only got like 2.5 levels despite cleaning a lot of areas. Showing some random gambles too. I started saving items into file as a way to mule because inventories tiny.

A couple of fun facts:

- your resist is MAX, not the number when you hit the cap.

Yeah, enhanced damage? Yes. Resistance? Max. Alright.

- full rejuvenation potion can drop from white monsters as early as act 1 normal, they’re rare though.

- there’s no partial set bonus - I gambled tancred boots and found the skull, but useless unless you have full set. How were you even supposed to collect full set with tiny ass stash? Lol

- there’s no cooldown on spells. Monsters spam meteors, blizzards and fire walls at you like there’s no tomorrow. Screen is burning, you’re too.

- gems feel rare. My first skull I found was at travi. I would never be able to cube anything past flawless to this point.

- flayer shamans boss spawns not with tiny flayers but other shamans. They spam inferno and melt you in 0.5 seconds.

I’ll see you soon! I’ve already been grinding a4 and getting close to lvl 30 so post is a little lagging but will update tomorrow!

First 99 Sorc since LOD [HC NL]

My first (and only) 99 in the D2:LOD 1.09 days was a Nova Sorc doing public Cow runs in, I believe running Oculus (maybe sometimes Wizardspike) and Lidless. So it was cool to bring do it again with the modern self-wield Infinity Nova Sorc.

Done entirely on P1 online, HC NL. I estimate ~250 hours of playtime to hit 99, having already been geared up from my previous characters.

Phoenix or Stormshield for HC Javazon?

Even with silk weaves, mana still seems to be a bit of an issue.

Would SS with max block help with survivability more than redemption from Phoenix? Not sure if it’s worth using all those high runes for Phoenix just for some QOL improvements.

Better general endgame tz farming hc build?

fury druid or bladesin for pvm hc tz farming? fury druid i assume does way more single target, but the bladesin im assuming clears density better with the blade trap+death sentry? does the fury druids single target outweigh bladesins so much so that the aoe she brings wouldnt make up for it?

What can I do to improve my Tesladin?

Hello,

I am having a hard time figuring out where to go next with my Tesladin. I have never made one before and I thought I would be a lot stronger than I am at the moment for Lvl 88 in Hell.

https://imgur.com/a/Xo23JU0

Imgur link has all my gear.

My inventory is filled with resistance small charms (not perfect ones, too expensive for good ones with second stats)

What additional gear would I need to say do ubers? I know that my Dreams arent in the best possible bases but they were the cheapest ones I could possibly get on D2jsp at the time.

Inventory I have a Grief Phase Blade, Draculs Grasp, Verndungos, HoZ, TGods Belt, even a Demon Limb lol.

Basically I am wondering what I should focus on next. I just want something capable of destroying DClone, Ubers, etc.

What it feels like running Meph P1 online 1,120 times

Sharing my P1 online Meph runs to gear up my Zealer so far:

#Runs: 1,112
#Hours: 22+Hrs (roughly 2 hrs. for 100 runs)
MF 410%
Hammerdin

TLDR, this is actually worth running (as long as you have the time of course); lots of good unique drops w/ 300-400MF. After run 300 I stopped killing Council Members and just went straight to Meph.

Lvl 98 - 99 grind

Since I reached lvl 98 on my Mosaic assassin on SP yesterday, what would be the estimated time it will take me to reach lvl 99?

I'm almost completely geared out, p8 clearspeed is mostly a matter of movement- and tele speed. Unfortunately, since I play on console, it's sometime not as easy to see elites and Champions as it is on pc, so i tend to clear out a lot of packs that are normal monsters. This slows me down a bit.

Google doesn't give me reliable answers. My estimate is something like 20hours... Realistic? What do you think?

A Force of Evil

Maybe this is a false memory, but i had something pop into my head the other day.

Does anyone remember, back in the LOD days on battle.net. Players having a "title" of sorts in their name "A Force of Evil"

Is that still a thing? Or am i imagining this?

It also made me think of things that were a bit different, like everyone typing /f m to just quick message people back but the message went to everyone on their friends list, the janky friends list system.

Also being able to type a message starting with ! just made the message appear above your head not in the game chat.

Best Sorc Hybrid Lighting Build

I’ve played Hydra-Orb Sorc for 20 years pre-Sunder and I decided to level a chain lighting Sorc on SP with budget gear. it was going great until A4 Hell when I hit a wall.

I want to respec to dual elements, but would like to keep lighting so I can still farm countess. I was thinking I’d add either Orb or Hydra, but I’m open to any feedback.

Thanks!

Arioc's Needle, Dreadfang, or Decapitator Death RW (For Warlock Echoing Strike)?

Hi all, have a question similar to my question in regards to gear about using Arachnid Mesh over Gheed's Wager.

So during Ladder, I've come across a 5 soc Decapitator, a Dreadfang, and more recently, Arioc's Needle which apparently has found it's home in Echoing Strike Warlock. Off ladder, I have a Warlock that does echoing strike in the typical build you'd expect from him, and I've been of three minds about either one of these weapons being poised on my mainhand.

for Arioc's, the one that I have is a +4 to skills with a 193ED rating, and the ignore defense can be handy, but everything else is fairly mundane to me.

For the Death RW, I've been hoping that an ETH Decapitator would drop at some point given the RW gives native indestructible to it, but so far, I've only found 5 sock Decapitators. Death gives mana steal, which seems to be the one downside of playing Warlock (even with Insight Merc, ironically did use Insight as a mainhand at times) so that would be helpful, along with having a blood golem buddy and the crushing blow with 5 duplicates would also easily melt foes, but I feel the ED won't be up to snuff unless the weapon is ETH.

And Dread Fang. At points I've tried to sell this item because I thought it would be valuable given it's a recent new unique and feels primed for Warlock Echoing Strike, but now I'm more compelled to keep it. It can proc amplify damage, has points to mirrored blades, mana steal, and the faster IAS and bonus attack rating are also no slouch. But the ONLY reason I would use Dread Fang is that I've come across a nasty habit of accidentally sacrificing a demon that has cursed and then having to do multiple runs to farm the 'perfect' Haphaesto in the hopes to get a combo of Fanaticism + Cursed, and I'd rather not deal with the hassle of it and just go with a demon with a good aura and use my main hand to proc the Amp.

Let me know which one would be ideal for when the ladder ends as I can't grant these items to Warlock until then. I got the runes for Death already off ladder and I'm fine tossing a few since I've never made Death for the chronicle if it turns out crummy, and arioc's and dread fang are also not ladder exclusive that I'm that pressed to move them over.

How amazing would it be if blizzard made you spawn next to your stash in act 2 & 3

Would pay for it if that was its own dlc honestly...
