Diablo's LHoD: melee range fixed?
In previous versions, Diablo's Lightning Hose of Death couldnt hit you if you were in melee range with him, and this was true on the 1.13 PTR as well. I used it to great advantage with my sorc and especially with my bowazon, who gets 1-shot by the LHoD otherwise.
Now, it seems like D is able to hose me even at pointblank range. Did something change? Or have I just been standing with my "toe on the line" so to say?

Zon question
How do deadly strike and critical strike add? I know I've seen an equation concerning this in the past, but I can't seem to find it now. I know they are not simply additive. I'm playing a bowazon that has 30% deadly strike from items, and I'm trying to figure out how much critical strike she would need, combined with the deadly strike, to give 100% chance for doing double damage. If some can direct me to the equation (X% CS + Y% DS = Z% chance for double damage) I will appreciate it. Thanks.|||http://classic.battl
About half way down.|||The simplified formula for your chance for double damage is
CS+DS-(CS*DS)
where CS and DS are expressed as percentiles, naturally (ie, 50% is 0.50)
http://diablo.in
And you can never get 100% chance for double damage unless you have 100% deadly strike. Zons usually shoot for L16 CS after all +skills, for 65% chance for CS. After that, returns diminish substantially.

Paladin Prayer mana drain glitch-please help!
My son has been playing the Paladin character. He is currently level 21, not high enough to start using the "Meditate" skill which requires level 24. He has spent 15 skill points on the "Prayer" skill. Everything was fine and then, BAM! all of the sudden mana started draining from his character whenever the "prayer" ability was activated. He can be standing in a town, fully healed, not poisoned or anything and his mana drains very rapidly for no apparent reason. This was not the case before. Prayer used to drain mana only to heal an injury. Once healed the mana stopped draining and started to replinish at a normal rate. He is sad because his favorite character is not working properly. Can anybody please help? Incidentally, I tried creating a new Paladin and it is reacting the same way. I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game. Blizzard tech support suggested the forums.|||It is working as intended. Although better is to use Cleansing, as Prayer is the one of the synergies for it. You can have Cleansing on and it will heal the same as Prayer without any mana cost, plus you benefit from it's poison and curse reduction.|||
Prayer drains mana no matter if you're damaged or not.|||The issue's probably that, until Prayer had reached level 15, it had simply eaten mana more slowly than the Paladin regenerated it. The reason it could be seen draining mana when it was healing could be ascribed to the fact that, usually, if you're hurt, you're in combat, which means you're using Zeal/etc.
Typically, anything requiring a reinstallation of Diablo II will be quite obvious, like the game crashing, graphics disappearing or such. Though, unless you play mods or use hacks, I can't imagine why it would ever need reinstallation at all.|||I know this post is nearly a year old, but I have the same concern. Up to patch 1.09 the Paladin could have Prayer active and it would only drain Mana when the Paladin (and/or party members) were injured. Once he was healed the Mana drain would stop, allowing Mana to regenerate. I quit playing for a couple of years and when I got back patch 1.12 had already been released. It was at this time that I noticed the Prayer "glitch".
What bothers me most is that with the improvements to other character's Skills and the addition of Synergies, why would any of the Paladin's Skills be downgraded? (imo) This alone was enough to make me (almost) want to stop playing the Paladin character.
Personally, I would prefer it if the Prayer Skill was fixed to work like it originally did.|||Well it probably got changed when they overhauled the synergy system....
TBH, as the posters a year ago said, its not really an issue since Cleansing and Meditation will give you your full Prayer regen rate without having to worry about mana cost, in addition to the curse/poison duration or mana regen bonuses. Prayer isnt meant to be an endgame-level aura, anymore than Blessed Aim (which also, coincidentally, has a passive synergy bonus)|||I did not create this Topic, but I want to thank all the posters for sharing information on this issue, especially:
I purchased Diablo II Collector's Edition ten years ago, so I may not remember accurately, but I believe Cleansing originally just reduced Poison and Curse duration. I also believe Droid33 is correct that the Cleansing Skill's healing ability was introduced with the synergy system.
In any event, thank you all, for the info. It has made me re-evaluate the Paladin as a favorite character.|||
Read the Prayer aura description.
Prayer is the one and only aura that requires mana whenever it is active. Every 2 seconds Prayer requires the mana cost stated in the skill description, no matter if anyone in your party needs Healing or not. The aura works as intended.
If you don't want mana to be used up select either Cleansing or Meditation. Each of those auras grant the same amount of Healing as your Prayer aura as a passive effect. Once you've got enough hard points and items accumulated you'll also note that this passive effect will exceed those of other synergies which are capped at 20 hard points invested. If for example you would have a lvl 30 Prayer any Cleansing or Meditation will be granted the full additional healing effect of lvl 30 Prayer.
Now if the mana drain exceeds the auras stated mana cost this is either a lag effect with nothing happening for seconds and then the game catching up rapidly using up mana - or a new bug.|||Just out of curiosity I dug out my old BradyGames, Diablo II, The Only Official Strategy Guide. Below are exact quotes from the guide, first printed in 2000.
This just goes to show how much the Skills have changed since the game was first released. I've also noticed that with the Cleansing and Meditation Skills' ability to heal, the rate of healing is dependent on the number of Skill Points you invest in Prayer. Currently, Meditation makes a great duel-leeching skill.

Below are exact quotes from the guide, first printed in 2000.
- Prayer (Level 1)
This is one of the Paladin's most powerful skills because it has the ability to heal you and your nearby allies passively, simply by being active. When it heals you or a member of your party, Prayer takes mana from your reserve, but only when it heals; otherwise it is simply 'on' passively waiting for your health to fall below optimum. When used in a multiplayer party, Prayer is incredibly important, especially at higher levels, because it can heal everyone in the party simultaneously.
Quoted from BradyGames, Diablo II, The Only Official Strategy Guide, Page 74.
Cleansing (Level 12)
Cleansing reduces the amount of time that poison will affect you or any members of your party within the aura's radius of effect. This aura is important in places like the Tombs or the Spider Cave where you're likely to face several enemies that can infect you with a dose of poison. Because poison can be so devastating, especially to a party if they all get poisoned, this aura is a huge asset in multiplayer games.
Quoted from BradyGames, Diablo II, The Only Official Strategy Guide, Page 76.
Meditation (Level 24)
This aura increases the mana recovery rate for your Paladin and nearby party members. In the first level, Meditation speeds up mana recovery by 60 percent; however, when you've put 20 skill points into this aura, you can get a mana regeneration rate that's 300 percent faster than normal! In a group of Sorceresses and Necromancers, this ability to regenerate mana quickly is a highly prized skill.
Quoted from BradyGames, Diablo II, The Only Official Strategy Guide, Page 78.

Hi! My question is, how can i go to a normal or nightmare game if im on nightmare or hell dificulty? I mean join other games (battle.net), not create 1 lol. For an example, im level 80 in hell, and i wana see the normal games on the join game list. is there anyway to do this?|||not realy.
only way is to log out, log on with a low level character. look at the games list. write down the game you want to join. and log your higher level on again to join it.

Create a SOJ with the cube ???
Did any one have try to use this formula in the cubes: 6 perfect skulls + another ring ??
Exemple naglering ilvl = 7 * .4 = 2.8 and my barbarian is level 70 * .4 = 28, total = 30.7 did you think it can have good chance to cube a Stone of Jordan ?|||The formula is:
6 Perfect Skulls + 1 Rare Item = 1 Random Low Quality Rare Item of the same type
It will re-rolls the stats of a Rare item (yellow color), not a Unique item (gold color).|||I understand it is possible to add one socket to a unique item with 3 perfect skull & a stone of jordan.
A unique item is not a rare also in that case ? (6 skull + rare)

A Unique item is never a Rare item.

SoJ Counter & Game Freeze
Hey all,
I've had this happen three times now:
I'm playing a normal, passworded private MF game and the SoJ sales counter appears. After that, it takes about 30 seconds and the game freezes and I get c/i. Before the counter's appearance, the game works normally with no connection problems.
After the c/i, my character can't join or make games for about 5 minutes. My other characters can create/join, though.
Why does this freeze occur?
|||the same exact thing just happened to me, kind of frustrating|||Your character is probably still recognized by battle.net as being in a game, which is why you can't rejoin. I'm not sure about the SoJ counter, but it may be a side effect of battle.net's hotfix to reduce the mass rollback problems that happened after the reset. Perhaps the mass activity of 40,000 duped Stones of Jordan being sold by some idiot item site is enough to cause connections to be interrupted.|||Thanks for the replies!
It happened again, this time I hit the Clone in my MF game... Diablo walks the earth! But...
I get c/i, and Join Failed with other characters. I was like "Whoo, Anni for me!"
If there's some sort of exploit going around (among the zillions of others), I'd appreciate if there's anything Blizz could do about it. This is annoying and frustrating.
I don't think that the SoJ counter is there to make the game crash.

Game not fun because of cheaters
I've been a diablo fan for a long time, but I have never been a cheater. At this point, though, it seems like there are few if any legitimate players left. 99% of baal games are run by bots that automatically pick up the loot, dupes run rampant, and half the people probably buy items from websites. It's impossible to compete in the economy because you're expected to have a bot to grant you wealth.
So, where are all the legitimate players? The ones that hate cheating? Is there a secret clan channel? Or am I supposed to stoop down to downloading a bot too?|||Man, botting would just take the fun out of it for me. And I'd have to have a cookie cutter hammerdin like everyone else.|||Even cooler, I just got dc'd right before a boss died. Guess someone didn't want to share the loot. Normally I'd say coincidence if it didn't happen more than a few times.
Cheaters really have taken over the game. =(|||Odbarc @ USEast
I don't have a bot. I don't use any of the hacks. (I played Median a bit.)
On the other hand, my character sucks. My problem is I can't find anyone willing to play non-baal, non-grush, non-rush, non-reward-quests.
Day 1 ladder is the only fun time where you can get 7 people cooperating, questing, having fun. Oh, and no moochers mooching.

A doubt between the runewords
so hi gals
atm i have a lvl 70 soso (nm) on HC and atm my armor sucks (darkglow) and i have gathered the runes for the runeword lionheart.
then i saw the runeword smoke.
now i am doubting between the two. one thing is that i have chromatic ire, which gives me +21% to max life. seeing this and knowing that lionheart has + life and + vitality (50 + (20 x 2) = 90) which would you guys advice me to use? my res in hell are not very good, all around 10 or something, anya quest in nm still has to be done. i also have 0 points in vita because i do not use energy shield (teleport, get hit no mana get more hits = fail)
+20% Enhanced Damage (hel fal lum)
Requirements -15%
+25 To Strength
+10 To Energy
+20 To Vitality
+15 To Dexterity
+50 To Life

or....
+75% Enhanced Defense (eth lum)
+280 Defense Vs. Missile
All Resistances +50

Am I the only one not cheating ?!
So I meet a nice guy ingame but every time he re-enters the game some line of code is being displayed in the chat. So after this happens a few times I ask him about it. I made a remark saying something like "hey man, your maphack is dumping code in the chat every time you rejoin." not knowing he was using maphack, but it was a fair guess at the time. He responds with "I dont know what you mean. ^^" So that was when I knew about him using maphack, and it explained how he magicly knew the way all the time.
So after running with him some more i felt he was quite fast with picking up loot all the time, instantly teleporting to uniques dropping and such. So without knowing he was using a program like pickit I asked him if he could turn off pickit and give me a chance on some loot as well. He responds with "ya ok, just a sec I'll turn it off". So thats two hacks already.
We clearing the way to Diablo and several times when he's getting himself into trouble he suddenly logs off and joins the game again after a couple of seconds. So I'm thinking... "looks like this guy is using chicken as well" and I'm saying: "looks like you're using the whole package. you using chicken as well?" and to my surprise he answers with: "man, you only know half of it"
So am I the only one not using cheats these days? hardcore is a huge joke if everyone and his sister is using this stuff.
I guess by joining Baal runs and pretty much knowing that the sorceress doing the teleporting to the throne room is using these programs as well, makes me take a small part in the cheating as well. But if I have the choice I always go for the baalwalk games.
But realy... what's the point in playing hardcore if you have absolutely nothing to fear?!
And I say play... but for most people I see in the games and in chat it's looking at the screen and getting rushed to act 5 and joining Baal runs from there on. Until it all is redone in Nightmare and in Hell. So people end up with level 90 hardcore characters that they pretty much havent played with yet and had absolutely no risk of dying.
Nobody wants the collect the act 2 staff anymore, nobody ever sets foot in the flayer dungeon anymore, nobody kill the ancients themselves anymore. its all rush rush rush and then.... well I seriously dont know... I guess they go magic find or make a new char and do it all over again.
Wish it could be different.
Stop fooling yourself. Get rid of all the cheats. Play the game as it is.
But as long as these programs can go on undetected.... I guess people will continue to use them.
its a shame.|||Just a couple of suggestions:
In the first example you're essentially playing a single player game, online. In the second example you're playing with people you know and trust, in a private game that no one can hack up. If you do decide to join or host a public game, do so, ready to expect anything.
BTW, to answer your question: No, you are not the only one not cheating!|||
...
After reading this far, I was sure this thread was gonna be about internet adultery.|||Are you the only one not cheating?
Quite possibly.
This is Diablo, afterall.
Neither are hacks being used in Diablo.|||Why play Hardcore if your going to use cheats to prevent your death? Just play softcore, die, lose a couple bucks, save time.|||
This...
kinda defeats the purpose. Now back to my 3rd HC necro :P|||And it's not just those programs people are using.
Couple of days agow I was visiting the GBR chat channel within the game. And the thing being discussed was running as many possible bots at once and selling items to JSP. Which bots were the most unlikely to be detected.
People were openly admitting they were using bots during the night. Some said to be using 4 bots, some even up to 15. I didnt bother asking where they got all the cd keys from.
The problem is huge.|||some people earn money with hacks.
so they dont play ... they are working.|||one more thing is
i am a fair and legit player and quite skilled.
i can teleport with my lvl 26 sorceress that uses about 20 pots for each teleport run (normal) and when i make a tp in chamber i always say s or safe or something like that.
and everyone starts complaining about me having maphack or being a bot etc.
wtf is up these days
So after running with him some more i felt he was quite fast with picking up loot all the time, instantly teleporting to uniques dropping and such. So without knowing he was using a program like pickit I asked him if he could turn off pickit and give me a chance on some loot as well. He responds with "ya ok, just a sec I'll turn it off". So thats two hacks already.
We clearing the way to Diablo and several times when he's getting himself into trouble he suddenly logs off and joins the game again after a couple of seconds. So I'm thinking... "looks like this guy is using chicken as well" and I'm saying: "looks like you're using the whole package. you using chicken as well?" and to my surprise he answers with: "man, you only know half of it"
So am I the only one not using cheats these days? hardcore is a huge joke if everyone and his sister is using this stuff.
I guess by joining Baal runs and pretty much knowing that the sorceress doing the teleporting to the throne room is using these programs as well, makes me take a small part in the cheating as well. But if I have the choice I always go for the baalwalk games.
But realy... what's the point in playing hardcore if you have absolutely nothing to fear?!
And I say play... but for most people I see in the games and in chat it's looking at the screen and getting rushed to act 5 and joining Baal runs from there on. Until it all is redone in Nightmare and in Hell. So people end up with level 90 hardcore characters that they pretty much havent played with yet and had absolutely no risk of dying.
Nobody wants the collect the act 2 staff anymore, nobody ever sets foot in the flayer dungeon anymore, nobody kill the ancients themselves anymore. its all rush rush rush and then.... well I seriously dont know... I guess they go magic find or make a new char and do it all over again.
Wish it could be different.
Stop fooling yourself. Get rid of all the cheats. Play the game as it is.
But as long as these programs can go on undetected.... I guess people will continue to use them.
its a shame.|||Just a couple of suggestions:
- 1. Play a passworded (private) game.
2. Schedule a game with family and/or friends and play a passworded game.
In the first example you're essentially playing a single player game, online. In the second example you're playing with people you know and trust, in a private game that no one can hack up. If you do decide to join or host a public game, do so, ready to expect anything.
BTW, to answer your question: No, you are not the only one not cheating!|||
Q u o t e:
So I meet a nice guy ingame

After reading this far, I was sure this thread was gonna be about internet adultery.|||Are you the only one not cheating?
Quite possibly.

Couple of days agow I was visiting the GBR chat channel within the game. And the thing being discussed was running as many possible bots at once and selling items to JSP. Which bots were the most unlikely to be detected.
People were openly admitting they were using bots during the night. Some said to be using 4 bots, some even up to 15. I didnt bother asking where they got all the cd keys from.

How to get/find diablo clone?
Topic question, as honestly this is one of the many things i still don't know, but have seen talked about from time to time.|||stones of jordans sold to merchants. 75-120 (i forget the actual lower value threshold...but 75-80 from what i recall) have to be sold per round. Get lucky and be on the server where individuals or teams sell them. Don't be the fool that sells the single one and makes me wait around for nothing...Please! :)|||That was back in the day, Kramuti. I have seen SoJ sales less than 30,000 twice since I started playing online almost 3 years ago. I think it would be awesome to see those numbers again, but it's bots who are selling them now. :(|||
You can read it for yourself at:
http://www.d2tom
Note: This information may not have been updated since the 1.13c patch, but it should still be fairly accurate.|||
I got one not long before the reset. Not as often as they have come before, I agree. It still happens though.|||Not quite my point, Kramuti, so I'll explain a bit.
I've seen a lot of Stones of Jordan sold. Often 10-12k at a time. And in a session, 20-40,000 of them. I can't see this being possible in any way other than duping, even for half a dozen people, it would take weeks to have this happen. I suspect it's the item sites running several bots to produce the raw numbers of Stones of Jordan to have such insane numbers.
Which makes me sad in a way because of the implications. Seeing a message like "185 Stones of Jordan Sold to Merchants" would almost be a cause to have to clean fresh coffee stains off my monitor. OMG! A REAL RENE RUN! Rather, it's "oh yay! Item site is low on Annis! Can I scoop one?" (Which at the moment for me is a definite "NO!")
The days of hunting Dclone and all that excitement. ;)
|||
They overall number that you see sold is not the amount sold in one session. There is no way that you saw 40k sold in one sitting.|||We walk him all the time! :) Search around, there's irc networks where we hand out games at least once a week where we'll walk him! Good luck hunting!
Q u o t e:
Uber Diablo is much stronger than Diablo. He only appears in Hell Difficulty games on the battle.net realms, after a certain number of Stones of Jordan have been sold to the merchants in town. He can appear in any act or location in the game, and just before he appears, your screen will shake and you will see the words "Diablo walks the earth" appear on your screen.
Players who have encountered him recommend that you have full Lightning and Fire Resistance, Physical Damage Reduction, and Fire or Lightning Absorption.
Diablo may cast Bone Prison around you or your hirelings or your Town Portals. His Red Lightning Attack results in half physical, half lightning damage. He has much higher Life, Resistances, and more powerful attacks than the Diablo you will find in Act IV. He also has the ability to cast his own version of Armageddon.
Uber Diablo uses these attacks: Fire Nova, Chaos Lightning, Cold Touch, Fire Wall, Firestorm, Bone Prison, Charge, Taunt, Armageddon.
Uber Diablo is the only monster that can drop the Annihilus Charm.

Question about key drop chance...
I was wondering if anyone could tell me if having keys in yoru stash effects the drop chance at all? I ask because I have 4 dkeys in my stash and ever since then no dkeys have dropped after 70+ runs. The drop chance is 1 in 12 so after 70 I'm really think something is going on and all I can think of is maybe I have too many already. Anybody know?|||I have never had issues with this. I generally have a character that is my Dkey collector and end up getting a bunch. 70 is really not that much to not see one in the grand scheme of things, though it does blow pretty hard...I have the same kind of luck with ##!!ess runs.|||I have the same problem, I been doing runs for over 2 weeks and only got 2 keys. Id say i average about 90-100 runs (all three) per week. before the patch I got keys all the time. what gives?
Spam Bots And Hacks - Blizz Read Plz
Any chance you guys can prevent these d2item sites from soliciting in your game , the "spam bots" are worse then last ladder, 2-4 will come in a single game and fill the whole screen with promotions; And when they leave , 2-4 more join again...
Why didnt you guys work on stopping people from hacking either?
People are continuing to ruin the game by using different hacks to be on top in d2.
Thanks 4 considering in advance|||/signed
really dont get again why - it seems so, at least to me - you do not even try to do anything against this abuse in first place, instead of changing/modifying other game mechanics. Like said above it's worse than ever before in any way...
We had multiple threads about this in the beta-forum section to 1.13, so there is no need for more details or explanations according to this problem...

I don't know why they dont impliment some auto-ban feature so if someone says: d2itemstorenamehere.

Valuable Item List
Is there such a thing floating around? I MF and pass by a lot of items since I'm mainly just looking for the things I want my own characters to wear. But I'm wondering how much stuff I've passed up that others could've wanted and trade for.
Stuff like Monarchs that can be socketed for rune words, are there other items good for collecting to use the socket quest on? I remember a flail for some runeword but I forgot what one. Or what perfect/near-perfect items should I keep? Been junking jewels lately since I don't know what ones to keep. Same for amulets and rings.
Err yeah... So there a general list of "must have" items I can browse? Something like this:
Jewels with x for mods to keep (Such as 40 ED jewels):
White/eth items to keep to socket quest (Such as Monarchs):
Uniques for cookiecutter builds (Such as... I have no idea):
Items with sockets to keep an eye out for (Such as 4 socket polearms):|||Well, white items you dont need socket Q for, you can socket with cube. So they are even more valuable then you think maybe.
IDK, when starting out, I like 2 OS and light armors for Stealth, and 2 OS wands with great +skills for making White. 3 OS shields early on for Ancients Pledge or the Gothic Ward unique is handy as well. You hit it with the 4 soc polearm too, at least for ladder players.
The 3 OS flails or Knouts for Black.
Getting into Elite items you hit it with the Monarch. I think also you would keep your eyes out for the Elite blue items for crafters - the ones that cannot be shopped or gambled. I think in this area also the 5 and 6 socket polearms become more viable than 4 as well.|||Hmm ok looking through the arreat summit trying to find the good items... I don't know about uniques and set items. I'm assuming +skill, resists, and/or crushing blow means it's good.
For other things I have...
Jewels: 40ED, 15 IAS, anything else?
Rings: I assume Resists and FCR or leech?
Amulets: +2 skills or +3 skill tree, with leech or FCR, and Resists?
Small Charms: 11 resist, 5 all resist, 7 MF, 20 life, and/or 5 FHR.
Grand Charms: 12 MF, 15 all resist, 30 resist, +1 skill, 12 FHR, and/or 45 life.
Guess white items don't matter much since socketing puts the max number of sockets on the item and just plain running without MF gear you'll find any white item you need. But what about the runewords that use less than the max sockets, like insight for 4 socket polearms. There other weapons/armor I should keep an eye out with a certain number of sockets?
Hoping to eventually collect enough worthwhile stuff to trade away for the things I do want heh.

WEIRDEST WAY TO LOSE ITEMS
Today I was deuling my friend in the river of flame and I died. When I clicked on my dead body I got all my items except for my shield and then I died again. So at this point there was one dead body that had a shield, the other body, had the rest of my items.
I saved and exited then rejoined that game, thinking that I would get all my items back like I usually do. I did not get my items back. Only got my shield back. Thats 4 years down the drain of constant playing to perfect my character's items.
Items lost value in high runes
ebotdz 402% - 15
Fort - 10
dracs - 1
treks - 1
verdungos - 1
arreats - 1
hoto - 5
hoto - 5
total loss = 39 high runes.
Please tell why this happened to me, was there some kind of glitch? is there any sort of compensation for this giant loss?
thanks|||
You answered yourself.
- You had at least two (2) corpses when you left the game.
- The game saves only one (1) corpse which is always the oldest corpse present.
- The saved corpse had your shield only.
Well you can try writing to Blizzard support that you want your duped stuff back. Good luck with that.

You might get the odd high level spam bot, but it's not the constant wave you see in unrestricted games.|||
Ok, really don't mean it in a bad way and pls do not feel offended! Just tried to give a sarcastic comparison and example for the situation in which d2 players are right now and many might feel the same way while playing... it does not really mean "go play single player"...... only "single palyer" was question marked... more the whole situation is ment, tried to explain "as short as possible", including majority of problems we have yet to face, pls read more between the lines...
so lets see:
dont follow bots = restricion, and there is almost no game without bots and almost no other way anymore for people to lvl up fast...
level limit in the game = restriction
no channel use = restricion, no communication with others in any way include gametalks, trades and whatever, so its like playing alone, single player no?....
level restriction, dont need to say more
we can continue this dialoge for ages but the more important thing in here is another:
do we palyers so easily accept this development in the gameplay? with the itemlobby now already included as a stable part of the game you see a great example of what it's all about: money and profit, you have the same in wow aso.

Level restrictions aren't painful to endure. Throw a 20lvl range on a lvl 50 host and you won't see any spam-bots. You probably won't see any turd-munching high lvl MFers joining and killing the act boss you're questing for, either. But just as many appropriate level characters will be able to join as if there was no level restriction.
As for not using chat, that's bogus. Take a moment to scroll through and squelch the bots. I'll spend maybe 60s when I first enter chat doing this, and then maybe 10s sporadically over the next few hours. At least you maintain the squelch list until you log out.|||
like said above, pls do not feel offended, but obviously you do... and again like said, try to read more between the lines and do not pick out every single word for its "meaning", my restricion is in first place ofc against the use of 3rd party progs, prolly it was not obvious enough...
"we" do? you mean "you" do, doubt you can talk for the community. with this said "you" also agree with, "at least, the use of mh, bots and prolly prefer forums like d2jsp?! if the community is really like this i am curious why anyone bothers about bots and hacks. seems to be fine for you since you might wanna use it yourself, maybe, is it the true point behind?! Excuse me if i am wrong, which you will surely point out soon!:)
Your point about lvl restrictions is ofc a good one, but then you still have problems when starting the game, also doing trist-, tombruns etc.

do we palyers so easily accept this development in the gameplay? with the itemlobby now already included as a stable part of the game you see a great example of what it's all about: money and profit, you have the same in wow aso.
ll i can hope for is that the general developement concerning this issue will change a bit with d3...

Level restrictions aren't painful to endure. Throw a 20lvl range on a lvl 50 host and you won't see any spam-bots. You probably won't see any turd-munching high lvl MFers joining and killing the act boss you're questing for, either. But just as many appropriate level characters will be able to join as if there was no level restriction.
As for not using chat, that's bogus. Take a moment to scroll through and squelch the bots. I'll spend maybe 60s when I first enter chat doing this, and then maybe 10s sporadically over the next few hours. At least you maintain the squelch list until you log out.|||
Q u o t e:

like said above, pls do not feel offended, but obviously you do... and again like said, try to read more between the lines and do not pick out every single word for its "meaning", my restricion is in first place ofc against the use of 3rd party progs, prolly it was not obvious enough...
Q u o t e:
Yes, we do. That's been ongoing since online gaming first moved beyond LAN parties.
"we" do? you mean "you" do, doubt you can talk for the community. with this said "you" also agree with, "at least, the use of mh, bots and prolly prefer forums like d2jsp?! if the community is really like this i am curious why anyone bothers about bots and hacks. seems to be fine for you since you might wanna use it yourself, maybe, is it the true point behind?! Excuse me if i am wrong, which you will surely point out soon!:)
Your point about lvl restrictions is ofc a good one, but then you still have problems when starting the game, also doing trist-, tombruns etc.
again, bump!

Well non-lader its pretty much. Their is usualy about 10-20 different game running dpeend on the time of the day. The trading chat is pretty much only for bot spaming their message (thats remain true for ladder trade chanel too).
Is the game is in a bether shape on the ladder ?|||alive and kicking. IDK why you wouldnt play ladder. More runeword availability. Its not like its more of a commitment or anything.|||
Yeha for me it would change next to noghting since I'm just re-starting and I lsot all of my character due to inactivity.
But my friend still play non-ladder cuz all of his items and in NL. And he is not sure he want to re-start all over.

Suggestion to improve Horadric Cube
So the cube is 12 spaces (4x3), and that can mean 12 jewels/gems etc. in there. Its a pain in the @$$ to move those possible 12 items from your cube, to your inventory, hover back over the cube, pick up the ring, place it in your inventory, hover back over an amulet (ad nauseum).
How about a new feature which "dumps" your cube into your inventory, for as many spaces as available?
Could be a new button next to "Transmute"
Thoughts?|||30 ppl read this, no replies?
Come on. If you're for, say so so Blizz will implement.|||not the most elegant solution.. but you can drop your cube and all the stuff will be ejected into your inventory/floor if you don't have space.

Need to ban this above bots or hackers
I was in a Baal run earlier, I'm a barb with a lvl35 BO shout. Some guy with a low CTA kept shouting over-riding mine. I asked him to please stop & he swore back at me saying it was his bot doing it.
Two seconds later, "you have lost your connection" and removed that game. This has happened four times in the last two weeks, and ONLY during pvp if I beat someone & they're upset or if someone doesn't want me in their trading room, etc.
There are hackers, dupers, advertising bots, pickup bots, and I'm sure more stuff then I care to know out there, but is there seriously a way to flood other players forcing them to disconnect out of a game? There's no way the 99% of the time I'm minding my own business my connection is fine, & the 1% of the time someone doesn't agree with me I'm kicked. Those odds are just not possible.
Identify & then BAN people using 3rd party programs that can kick/remove players from the game above all others please, & not during your massive ban wave. I've given up on trying to make friends or talk in Diablo II, or even join trade channels at this point.

Runes droped from countess....
I did about 20 countess runs in nightmare and I get up to HEL runes often... So i started running it in hell and notices the drops got worse...usually tal and ort even eld.... what gives?|||From my experience, this has always been the case, even in previous patches.
I have the best luck on Nightmare difficulty. Since the release of the 1.13c patch the Countess seems to drop decent mid-level Runes. She usually drops 3 to 4 Runes, sometimes only one or two and rarely none. When I need El, Eld, Tir or other low-level Runes I do the Countess on Normal difficulty. Doing the Countess on Hell difficulty is a crap-shoot. Too much work and time, yielding little in return, unless you're very lucky.
For high-level Runes you'll just have to do like other players and search the known Rune-dropping areas, specifically on higher difficulty levels.
This information is based strictly on my 10 years playing D2 and not on any drop calculators or number-crunching info.

Sanctuary(bug?) (Lawbringer Iron Golem)
So I've been reading old threads online (not bnet forums), and came across a Sanc aura bug where MONSTERS get a %ED bonus vs. Undead
So does this mean its a very bad idea to make a Lawbringer Iron Golem for my Summonmancer?
The threads have all been dated 2008, with no conclusive evidence. Has this been patched?
-Cya|||The undead under Sanc indeed get an ED bonus versus fellow undead, but your Necromancer skeletons do not count as 'undead'.
The only case where this might conceivably matter is where you resurrect an undead while fighting their undead.
Nevertheless, Lawbringer is terrible to IG because (1) it has CTC decrepify and will override your own curses (2) it has Rest in Peace so you cannot CE or resurrect what it kills (3) it has no crushing blow and horrid attack speed
IG an Insight or an IK maul or something.|||Hmm good to know. I only thought of doing it as I run River and Chaos a lot, so the knockback on KNights would come in handy.

About Slow.
Ok say you're a necro with decrep, a maxed golem, a level 80 NM Act 2 Holy Freeze merc, using a Kelpie Snare on a boss... Does all that slowing stack? I just found the kerpie and wondering if I should make the switch. At the moment I'm really enjoying being able to sit back with the golem slowing baal so my minions just kill him. I tab out and check emails and whatnot. But that's NM Baal, still working on act3 hell heh. I have a feeling Hell Baal will be a little more difficult so wondering if I can stack all those slows and have the same if not more safety.
Also. Does slowing work on the diablo clone guy that pops out from the SoJ sales?
What about Ubers, does Slow work on them too?|||Not that it makes a huge difference, but bone, poison or summoner?
They do all stack, but it's capped at a certain level. I think bosses and other Unique monsters are capped at 85% with the effect. Hell Baal can usually be pacified just with a decent golem and decrep (and a horde of minions to make sure his attacks get interrupted). I've found that Diablo seems to be able to get more attacks in spite of the slow effect.
Finally, you may want to keep the Kelpie Snare and try out another aura Mercenary, seeing as with the Snare you'd have excellent crippling capability. Or keep your merc and stash or sell the snare.|||Summoner.
And hmm alright so guess golem/decrep is all I need then.|||Diablo Wiki:
Slow is a modifier that affects a player's movement and attack speed by significantly slowing it. This effect can happen due to Cold attacks, Holy Freeze Aura, Decrepify Curse, Clay Golem's slowing attack, items with "Slows Target By X%" and Cold Skills. Even monsters that are immune to Cold can be slowed.
Especially slowing has two main type:
One main type of slow effect is the non-elemental slowing. It works as a simple "speed debuff". Some unique, and set item has the "Slows Target By X% mod and there are skills with this effect like Decrepify, Holy Freeze and Clay Golem's attack. Notable that Holy Freeze's slow is not a simple cold and cannot be resisted with items with the "Cannot Be Frozen" mod and Cold Immune monsters are affected by it as any other monster, only the periodic (and very low) cold damage will be resisted. Items and skills using this effect stacks with a cap about 85%.
The other main type is when Cold damage cause the slow effect. It can be resisted by items with the "Cannot Be Frozen" mod. Every cold damage have one type of this effect. It is notable, that there is two type of cold slowing. The first is the more common "cold" the other is the more powerful "Freeze". Freeze on Act Bosses, Super Unique Monsters Unique Monsters and Player Characters will work only as cold slowing.

This is why blizz doesnt stop spam
Isn't it obvious? Blizzard is getting a cut from the profits, if not already owning the companies to increase revenue.
I honestly can't think of any other reason why blizzard allows these bots to keep spamming.
I had the SAME account, and the SAME character spam my game six times (along with various other bots/accounts). Yet, when I left and joined a game TWICE, I got a 6 hour "temp ban". A rag tag team of developers from the 90's could do a better job against these spam bots.

I did. I suspect it has to do with the copious amount of CD-keys they have, and just picking the next CD-key on the list and botting all over again.
While there is more that could be done about detecting the programs that allow botters to spam in public games and taking action against it, I'm pretty sure that they do in fact terminate spammers. They do have to take enough time, however, to determine whether or not someone is reporting an actual spammer, or someone was upset that his rush took too long. I also believe that it will take some time to wear down the item site stores of fresh CD-keys.

Concerning the Diablo 2 expansion...
Do I need to have completed Diablo II and have a high-level character in order to play the expansion? Or is it separate and can I jump right on into LoD?|||
The expansion, Lord of Destruction, picks up where Diablo II left off. There were 4 Acts in the original game. LoD adds Act 5. You must complete the first 4 Acts (kill Diablo) and then talk to Tyrael. He will open a portal. When you enter, Act 5 begins and you will find yourself in Harrogath. You don't have to be high-level, but by the time you complete the first 4 Acts, you'll probably be in the neighborhood of level 24 - 40, depending on how you play.|||

3 socketed tower shield on nightmare? Thanks in advance for answers.|||Just take a Tower Shield or Pavise to Larzuk in Harrogath, Act V, any difficulty level (if you haven't done this already). If you're in Nightmare difficulty your character should be a high enough level that he'll put the maximum number of 3 Sockets in the Shield. Careful! The Aegis can have a maximum of 4 Sockets.
BTW, I find Tower Shields and their variations everywhere, especially on difficulty levels above Normal. However, since I play an Amazon archer (Bowazon) I don't bother picking them up. ;P|||I know the variations can have 4 sockets, i wanted a 3 socketed one for a runeword i'm planning to make.|||
I apologize if I insulted your knowledge of the game. I was just trying to help.
Your other option is to search Normal or Nightmare difficulty until you find a Tower Shield with exactly 3 Sockets.
I assumed this, since Gems, Jewels and Runes do not require a specific number of Sockets or order of insertion to gain their effects. I only mentioned the Aegis as a reminder that Larzuk will put 4 Sockets on it, ruining your ability to create your Runeword.|||Rmcin329,
I just found a Superior Tower Shield with 3 Sockets. If you're still looking and you want it, let me know in this thread. I check the forums 2 to 4 times a day, so if you want it let me know and maybe we can schedule a game where I can give it to you.
You can see it here:
http://i1008.pho
1 Tal Rune + 1 Amn Rune + 1 Perfect Ruby + Normal Shield = Socketed Shield of same type
Just in case you'd want to save your socket quests for set or unique items. At the moment, however, it looks like Justin has the solution. :)|||
Uh aren't you on useast? i play on uswest as it states right next to my name here on the forums. In any case yes i am still looking for one, but if i dont' find one by the time i finish getting the runes together i will probably burn normal difficulty socket quest.
As for the recipe Breywood mentioned.......That is an interesting thought i forogot about that one when scrolling recipe list. But i'm already short on perfect rubys as is, we'll just have to wait and see once i'm closer to having all of the runes. Currently i've got 1 of the Ko runes, a lum, a lem, 2 lo ones and a few other lower ones. Probably will take me some time to get the rest together as i'm only killing nightmare countess once per game, not running her several times a day.
EDIT
completly forgot to mention, the runeword i'm making is Sanctuary.|||
Um... Sorry! My bad. I must have been thinking of muling between different accounts. I forgot those accounts must be on the same Realm.
Just remember:
In any case, good luck with whatever you decide to do. And happy hunting!
I didn't know Larzuk would socket Set or Uniques. It seems I remember trying it in 1.12 (and earlier), but he would not socket them. Hmm... perhaps I should try it again. However, he will socket Superior quality items.|||Well i'm still collecting the runes i need(and might be for some time even) but i got around to thinking, what ilvl does a tower shield need to get 3 sockets from larzuks quest? Also i'm not well informed on how to tell how high the ilvl of something is, i just know the higher the difficulty the better in general. In any case what i'm getting at is, can i just buy a blank white tower shield in say act 4 nightmare, then burn my normal socket quest on it and get 3 sockets? Or do i need to go look for a white tower shield as a drop somewhere?(and if i do need to, then where would be nice to know)
Anyways thanks for help in advance.|||
It's not the item level you need to be concerned with. It's your character level. The higher your character level is, the better chance you have of Laruk putting the maximum number of sockets in your Shield. Any Normal (white text) Tower Shield will do. So will a Superior Tower Shield. And yes, if you're not having any luck finding one, you can buy one and have it socketed.
You could also use the Pavise, which as you know, is the upgraded version of the Tower Shield. The Pavise, however, requires a Strength of 133 to equip.
I don't know the exact level your character needs to be to get the maximum number of sockets, but I know I'm usually between clvl 70 - 80 when I use my first Larzuk quest.
For example:
I wanted a Harmony Blade Bow for my MA Bowazon. I recently found a Blade Bow at clvl 79, took it to Larzuk in Normal difficulty and he put the maximum 4 sockets in it. The next game I was lucky enough to find the only Rune I was missing; the Ko Rune. I now have my Harmony Blade Bow.
____________
Edit:
BTW, the Tower Shield (max 3 sockets) is a Normal item. You should find them all over Normal difficulty. The Pavise (max 3 sockets) is the Exceptional version of the Tower Shield and you should start finding them in Nightmare difficulty. They're a little more rare to find. The Aegis (max 4 sockets) is the Elite version of the Tower Shield and you shouldn't start finding them until Hell difficulty (although in one game, I did find a Magical Dusk Shroud in Nightmare difficulty). They're the most rare to find.|||
Well i've only seen a very few tower shields in drops, and none of them have had any sockets. Haven't seen a single pavise drop yet, or even any in shops. Just got to act V nightmare.|||
Very few? All you need is one. When you find it, hang on to it. As long as it's not low-quality (Cracked, Damaged, etc). When your character is a high enough level, take it to Larzuk.
In the ten years I've been playing D2 there's something I've noticed. It may just be me, because different players have different experiences. But, when I play my Bowazon, it seems I find all kinds of items for other character types (like all the Tower Shields I'm finding). When I play my Paladin Mule, he seems to find all the bows. Although, when my Bowazon started hitting higher levels, she did begin finding some nicer items. I've just recently hit level 80 and I'm still looking for the rest of the equipment I'd like my character to have. It just takes patience and a lot of hours playing the game.
Something you may have already noticed is that as your character reaches higher levels, the merchants will begin to carry higher level/quality items. Even in Act I, Normal difficulty.
Tip: No matter what difficulty mode your playing on, if you visit a merchant in any Act and they don't have what you're looking for, waypoint to another Act and check the merchant(s) there.|||
Uh are you sure its clvl thats whats needed? I was browsing a bit on the Arreat summit after reading your last post and found this page http://classic.battl
According to the info on arreat summit ilvl is a factor.|||
You are correct, Rmcin329. My apologies! It's been a long time since I've checked the documents and couldn't find it this time, to confirm this. Thank you for setting me straight.
I've never had a problem getting the maximum sockets from Larzuk, but then I never socket Normal items. I always socket Exceptional or Elite items depending on the Attribute requirements (whether I can equip it or not).
Since ilvl is the contributing factor then, your chances of getting the maximum number of sockets on a Tower Shield may be as good as using the socket formula, if you have the Runes to spare.
I don't remember if you mentioned your character type, but if you're playing a Paladin, you may want to wait until you find (or can buy) a Pavise (assuming you have the Strength). Especially since the Defense and Smite Damage is more than triple that of the Tower Shield.
According to the link you posted, Arreat Summit says your best chances for maximum sockets is with an ilvl greater than 40. Unfortunately, I've never seen any documentation on the exact levels of items in Diablo II. I only know that for my Bowazon, Larzuk's quest always gets me the maximum 6 sockets on Gothic Bows (Exceptional Long War Bow) and Hydra Bows (Elite). And if they're Superior, the Superior attribute is retained. In the same way, if you used a Cracked item (no one should want to do that), the Cracked attribute would be retained.
Anyway, good luck in finding your Shield and getting it socketed. I'm sorry we're not on the same Realm. Knowing you're still looking for one pains me even more that I had to sell that 3-socketed Tower Shield I found for you last week.
Justin Darkwater|||nah i can't spare the runes, i'm upgrading all of them to build up to what i still need to make the runeword. Great now the magic question is, where to look for a ilvl 40 or better tower shield? -.-
EDIT
Googling a bit i found this http://www.extreme-g
Thought i'd post it in case anyone was interested. Gives some interesting details about ilvls.
Also feeling like an idiot afterwards.....I noticed the sticky at the top of this page about sockets. If i'm understanding his chart right, i can use pretty much any white tower shield and get 3 sockets, if i'm understanding his chart correctly. Too bad every single gambled one is Magic and every single one in the shops are too. Oh well i'll find a blank one eventually and burn a socket quest on it, seems how i can't really spare the runes.
FURTHER EDIT
Just got my 2nd Ko rune, which dropped in act V nightmare(first dropped some time back in act 2 nightmare). Now i just need the shield and a Mal rune.|||Update! On one countess run earlier today i found the runes i needed to finish creating a 3rd Ko rune now. Also on a later countess run i found a white tower shield! Successfully used my normal difficulty socket quest to get 3 sockets in it. Now i just need to dig up enough runes to cube up a Mal. Anyways, thanks for your help everyone.|||
Congratulations!
Try Countess runs and Chaos Sanctuary in Nightmare difficulty. I've found a few Mals there. Even if you don't, you should find some decent mid-level Runes for upgrading.
BTW, I find Tower Shields and their variations everywhere, especially on difficulty levels above Normal. However, since I play an Amazon archer (Bowazon) I don't bother picking them up. ;P|||I know the variations can have 4 sockets, i wanted a 3 socketed one for a runeword i'm planning to make.|||

I apologize if I insulted your knowledge of the game. I was just trying to help.
Q u o t e:
Just take a Tower Shield or Pavise to Larzuk in Harrogath, Act V, any difficulty level (if you haven't done this already). If you're in Nightmare difficulty your character should be a high enough level that he'll put the maximum number of 3 Sockets in the Shield.
JustinDarkwater
Your other option is to search Normal or Nightmare difficulty until you find a Tower Shield with exactly 3 Sockets.
Q u o t e:
i wanted a 3 socketed one for a runeword i'm planning to make.
Rmcin329
I assumed this, since Gems, Jewels and Runes do not require a specific number of Sockets or order of insertion to gain their effects. I only mentioned the Aegis as a reminder that Larzuk will put 4 Sockets on it, ruining your ability to create your Runeword.|||Rmcin329,
I just found a Superior Tower Shield with 3 Sockets. If you're still looking and you want it, let me know in this thread. I check the forums 2 to 4 times a day, so if you want it let me know and maybe we can schedule a game where I can give it to you.

Uh aren't you on useast? i play on uswest as it states right next to my name here on the forums. In any case yes i am still looking for one, but if i dont' find one by the time i finish getting the runes together i will probably burn normal difficulty socket quest.
As for the recipe Breywood mentioned.......That is an interesting thought i forogot about that one when scrolling recipe list. But i'm already short on perfect rubys as is, we'll just have to wait and see once i'm closer to having all of the runes. Currently i've got 1 of the Ko runes, a lum, a lem, 2 lo ones and a few other lower ones. Probably will take me some time to get the rest together as i'm only killing nightmare countess once per game, not running her several times a day.

Just remember:
Q u o t e:
1 Tal Rune + 1 Amn Rune + 1 Perfect Ruby + Normal Shield = Socketed Shield of same type
The number of sockets will vary. The item must be normal and unsocketed. Low-quality items and superior items do not work. The item gets 1-4 sockets, randomly. However, the number of sockets is then restricted by the maximum number of sockets that base item with that ilvl can have. For example, if you have an item that can only have 2 sockets, there's a 5/6 chance of getting 2 sockets and a 1/6 chance of getting 1 socket.

In any case, good luck with whatever you decide to do. And happy hunting!

Just in case you'd want to save your socket quests for set or unique items.
Breywood
I didn't know Larzuk would socket Set or Uniques. It seems I remember trying it in 1.12 (and earlier), but he would not socket them. Hmm... perhaps I should try it again. However, he will socket Superior quality items.|||Well i'm still collecting the runes i need(and might be for some time even) but i got around to thinking, what ilvl does a tower shield need to get 3 sockets from larzuks quest? Also i'm not well informed on how to tell how high the ilvl of something is, i just know the higher the difficulty the better in general. In any case what i'm getting at is, can i just buy a blank white tower shield in say act 4 nightmare, then burn my normal socket quest on it and get 3 sockets? Or do i need to go look for a white tower shield as a drop somewhere?(and if i do need to, then where would be nice to know)
Anyways thanks for help in advance.|||
Q u o t e:
what ilvl does a tower shield need to get 3 sockets from larzuks quest?
Rmcin329

It's not the item level you need to be concerned with. It's your character level. The higher your character level is, the better chance you have of Laruk putting the maximum number of sockets in your Shield. Any Normal (white text) Tower Shield will do. So will a Superior Tower Shield. And yes, if you're not having any luck finding one, you can buy one and have it socketed.
You could also use the Pavise, which as you know, is the upgraded version of the Tower Shield. The Pavise, however, requires a Strength of 133 to equip.
I don't know the exact level your character needs to be to get the maximum number of sockets, but I know I'm usually between clvl 70 - 80 when I use my first Larzuk quest.
For example:
I wanted a Harmony Blade Bow for my MA Bowazon. I recently found a Blade Bow at clvl 79, took it to Larzuk in Normal difficulty and he put the maximum 4 sockets in it. The next game I was lucky enough to find the only Rune I was missing; the Ko Rune. I now have my Harmony Blade Bow.
____________
Edit:
BTW, the Tower Shield (max 3 sockets) is a Normal item. You should find them all over Normal difficulty. The Pavise (max 3 sockets) is the Exceptional version of the Tower Shield and you should start finding them in Nightmare difficulty. They're a little more rare to find. The Aegis (max 4 sockets) is the Elite version of the Tower Shield and you shouldn't start finding them until Hell difficulty (although in one game, I did find a Magical Dusk Shroud in Nightmare difficulty). They're the most rare to find.|||

Very few? All you need is one. When you find it, hang on to it. As long as it's not low-quality (Cracked, Damaged, etc). When your character is a high enough level, take it to Larzuk.
In the ten years I've been playing D2 there's something I've noticed. It may just be me, because different players have different experiences. But, when I play my Bowazon, it seems I find all kinds of items for other character types (like all the Tower Shields I'm finding). When I play my Paladin Mule, he seems to find all the bows. Although, when my Bowazon started hitting higher levels, she did begin finding some nicer items. I've just recently hit level 80 and I'm still looking for the rest of the equipment I'd like my character to have. It just takes patience and a lot of hours playing the game.
Something you may have already noticed is that as your character reaches higher levels, the merchants will begin to carry higher level/quality items. Even in Act I, Normal difficulty.

Upgrading Items on Ladder with Cube
When you upgrade an item for instance Courpsemourn Ornate Plate to Courpsemourn Sacred Armor. How do you know what the base Defense will be on the upgraded form or will it be random?
If the base defense of the Ornate plate was max (450 Defense) will that mean it will have 600 base defense when it's upgraded to Sacred Armor?|||The defense will be random.

14. How can upgraded items get a lower Defense than the item had before?
Upgrading items does not guarantee higher stats. All it does is take a normal base item to exceptional status, or an exceptional item to elite status. The end stats depend on the stats of the upgraded base item.
Vampire Gaze is probably the most famous example.
Grim helms have a defense range of 60-125. All Vampire Gaze Grim Helms have a defense of 252. This is due to the fact that when armors spawn with the enhanced defense mod, the defense is invariably set at max +1. When we are dealing with a Vampire Gaze, the base item's defense of 126 receives a 100% bonus = 252 defense.
However, when the item is upgraded, the base defense is rerolled. The defense range of Bone Visages is 100-157. Which means that a Vampire Gaze with a base item defense of 126 has a very good chance of being turned into a Bone Visage with a lower defense. In case of the worst roll imaginable, your 252 defense Vampire Gaze would go down to 200. Not good.

Str bugging Marrowwalks bugged?
So far the only item this has affected are my Marrowwalks. Here are the items giving me str:
Enigma: +66 str for my lvl, (77 str req)
Credendum belt: +10 str (106 str req)
my str b4 Marrows is 109, so you can see that the belt is holding itself up, as without it i have a str of 99 which is not enough to equip it.
The Marrowwalks (118 str req) are +11 to str once equipped, leaving me with 120 str, and once I equip them, they hold themselves on.
However, when I join a new game, the Marrows are once again unequipped (still IN the footwear slot, only highlighted red), and the Credendum is still equipped.
Marrowwalk boots are the only items in the game that have done this to me, and it is consistant.
Has anyone ran into this problem? Anything similar? Are Marrowwalks exclusive to this? Blizz f'ed with em a while back, I wonder if there was an unintended consequence?
I play hardcore so every point i can put into vita is critical, and if I dont need 139 str I dont want to put it in there, but I dont want to carry some bugging gear and equip that at the start of each game.

Charsi and Larzuk prizes: when to use them?
I was wondering what you lot think it's best to do with Charsi's and Larzuk's prizes of imbueing (I forgot what it does, if someone cares to explain) and adding sockets to items. I haven't used either of them, and right now my char is on the Epilogue act, getting near the Arreat Summit. Should I wait for a really got non-magical item, what should I do?|||
I always save them until I have something decent to use them on. Don't feel you have to use them right away, you'll have them available even when you advance to the next difficulty (incase you did not know that, not trying to insult your intelligence).
The imbue quest reward changes any plain item into a rare version of that item. I like to save this quest for circlets/coronets/ti
For the socket quest, save those for your end-game gear if possible. Use it to add sockets to uniques, or if you're planning on making a runeword, use it to socket white items. Remember though, when socketing white items you will always obtain the max sockets for that item, so make sure you look that up before proceeding. And make sure you know the difference between a polearm and spear, hahaha. You can't make any of the good act 2 merc runewords in a spear-class weapon! People seem to forget this a lot, lol. (Sorry for that random tidbit, wouldn't want you to waste the quest reward ;-P) And remember, ethereal is better for mercs (once again, not trying to insult intelligence, I just give way too much info, haha).
The arreat summit is great for looking up runewords, and the max sockets on all the weapons/armor, so go check it out when you plan on using your quest rewards. You can also see what mods can spawn on rare items in the magic prefix/suffix section incase you want to imbue something different. Good luck to you!|||Thanks for the reply!!! And I never felted insulted =)
By the way, if I use the imbueing before completing the quest once again on the next difficulty, do I get another chance to imbue or in hell that isn't a reward to the smith quest?|||You get one Imbue for each difficulty level or a total of three. The same is true for Sockets. However, there are Horadric Cube Recipes that will allow you to do the same thing.
Many players like to wait until they have a mid to high character level (clvl) for two reasons. With Charsi, the higher your clvl, the better quality items you'll find and the better the mods you'll get when they're Imbued. Some say you should be at least clvl 45. Some wait until they reach clvl 60. Others say you'll get the best imbues at clvl 80+. Personally, I just wait until I reach Hell difficulty and start finding decent Exceptional and Elite items. As to what you should Imbue? When you're ready, ask yourself, "What do I need?" If you've found decent armor and weapons, you may want to imbue some Boots or Greaves.
With Larzuk, you'll get the maximum number of sockets an item is allowed to have if you take him an Exceptional or Elite version of that item. If you take him a Normal item, the number of sockets you get is random. It helps if you know what you want to do with your socketed items. Remember, when creating a Rune Word, the item has to have the exact number of sockets, no more and no less. If you want to create a Rune Word that needs four sockets and you take an Elite item, that can have up to six sockets, to Larzuk, then he'll put six sockets in it.

C'ya on the darkside… ☺|||You get the reward in each of the 3 difficulties no matter what, it'll wait til you feel like using it in each difficulty.
Larzuk's socketing quest you can either use to get a runeword you need early on or save and use to socket a unique later.
The imbue is more debatable - whatever you do with it there's a high chance it winds up not particularly useful - so if you're a melee character using it to get a rare weapon in normal may not be an entirely bad play. Things you might decide to use it on otherwise:
1) Diadem - no matter what level you imbue this at it's capable of getting alvl 90 (+2 skills) making it a decent option for a character that's got the quest sitting around but is never going to level. Imbues also make higher alvl modifiers more common than they'd normally be so there is a slightly better chance of imbuing a +2 diadem than just identifying one. Circlets, coronets, and tiaras are also good - but do have level requirements to have the +2 all open (circlet - clvl 83=ilvl 87=alvl 90; coronet - clvl 78=ilvl 82=alvl 90; tiara - clvl 73=ilvl 77 = alvl 90).
2) Staff mod items - imbues get a better chance of getting staff mods (+ to a specific skill) - popular choices for these would either be druid pelts (looking for say a +5 tornado helm), or assassin claws (looking for good trapper claws). When trying for a staff mod item you almost always want to wait as late as you can. It varies from item to item how long you have to wait at minimum - the only one i know off the top of my head is a greater talon should not be imbued before clvl 71 (yielding ilvl 75 which allows alvl 51 and +2 all skills open). And the longer you wait the higher your chance of getting 3 staffmods, and the higher your chance that the staffmods you get will be +3 to the skill.
3) Ethereal crystal sword or dimensional blade - here you're looking for high ED (say 400%+), which you can then upgrade to phaseblade and get indestructible. Don't know the minimum level off the top of my head to try this imbue.
In all these cases there's a high chance of you getting nothing useful, but good luck!|||Thanks you lot for all the responses. I still have 2 doubts tho:
- If I save up my imbueing and socket adding from normal difficulty, once I reach the next difficulty level and complete the quest, will I have 1 chance of doing them or 2?
- On the last reply, the guy talked about using ethereal weapons... but why is that a good idea if ethereal doesn't get repaired and eventually will get useless? Only to give them to a merchant?
Thanks!!!|||As stated before, you get a total of 3 Imbue quests from Charsi, 3 Socket quests from Larzuk and 3 Personalize quests from Anya. You DO NOT lose them until you use them.
With that in mind, you can kill Baal in Normal difficulty, do Normal Cows, kill Baal in Nightmare difficulty, do Nightmare Cows, kill Baal in Hell difficulty, do Hell Cows, do Pandemonium quest, reach character level (clvl) 99 and STILL be able to go back to Normal difficulty and complete Charsi's Imbue quest, Larzuk's Socket quest and Anya's Personalize quest. Then you can go back to Nightmare difficulty and complete Charsi's Imbue quest, Larzuk's Socket quest and Anya's Personalize quest. And finally, you can go back to Hell difficulty and complete Charsi's Imbue quest, Larzuk's Socket quest and Anya's Personalize quest.
To answer your first "doubt": Yes, you will get two, not just one. And when you bring Charsi the Horadric Malus in Hell difficulty you will have three, not just one or two.
As for your second "doubt": Only Xivarmy can explain this to you. However, I will say that some players like using Ethereal items. They make excellent items for your Hireling. Hireling's equipment never loses Durability… Ever! Also, if you're playing a character that doesn't get hit often, then Ethereal Armor can possibly last you indefinitely.
Anyway, I hope this clears up any of your concerns.|||I specifically said Ethereal Crystal Sword or Dimensional Blade. The reason why these two is their elite equivalent, Phase Blade is ALWAYS indestructible (and therefore will not normally spawn ethereal). However crystal swords and dimensional blades CAN spawn ethereal. and will stay ethereal when you upgrade them to a phaseblade in addition to gaining indestructible. The potential for this to make a very painful weapon is significant, but again i'll stress, imbues most of the time are going to come out useless. I was just listing a few novel options to try :)|||
Oh, cool! I never even thought of that. I play an MA Bowazon. All my weapons are always Indestructible. No Ethereal Bows, though. :(
Q u o t e:
I was wondering what you lot think it's best to do with Charsi's and Larzuk's prizes of imbueing (I forgot what it does, if someone cares to explain) and adding sockets to items. I haven't used either of them, and right now my char is on the Epilogue act, getting near the Arreat Summit. Should I wait for a really got non-magical item, what should I do?
I always save them until I have something decent to use them on. Don't feel you have to use them right away, you'll have them available even when you advance to the next difficulty (incase you did not know that, not trying to insult your intelligence).
The imbue quest reward changes any plain item into a rare version of that item. I like to save this quest for circlets/coronets/ti
For the socket quest, save those for your end-game gear if possible. Use it to add sockets to uniques, or if you're planning on making a runeword, use it to socket white items. Remember though, when socketing white items you will always obtain the max sockets for that item, so make sure you look that up before proceeding. And make sure you know the difference between a polearm and spear, hahaha. You can't make any of the good act 2 merc runewords in a spear-class weapon! People seem to forget this a lot, lol. (Sorry for that random tidbit, wouldn't want you to waste the quest reward ;-P) And remember, ethereal is better for mercs (once again, not trying to insult intelligence, I just give way too much info, haha).
The arreat summit is great for looking up runewords, and the max sockets on all the weapons/armor, so go check it out when you plan on using your quest rewards. You can also see what mods can spawn on rare items in the magic prefix/suffix section incase you want to imbue something different. Good luck to you!|||Thanks for the reply!!! And I never felted insulted =)
By the way, if I use the imbueing before completing the quest once again on the next difficulty, do I get another chance to imbue or in hell that isn't a reward to the smith quest?|||You get one Imbue for each difficulty level or a total of three. The same is true for Sockets. However, there are Horadric Cube Recipes that will allow you to do the same thing.
Many players like to wait until they have a mid to high character level (clvl) for two reasons. With Charsi, the higher your clvl, the better quality items you'll find and the better the mods you'll get when they're Imbued. Some say you should be at least clvl 45. Some wait until they reach clvl 60. Others say you'll get the best imbues at clvl 80+. Personally, I just wait until I reach Hell difficulty and start finding decent Exceptional and Elite items. As to what you should Imbue? When you're ready, ask yourself, "What do I need?" If you've found decent armor and weapons, you may want to imbue some Boots or Greaves.
With Larzuk, you'll get the maximum number of sockets an item is allowed to have if you take him an Exceptional or Elite version of that item. If you take him a Normal item, the number of sockets you get is random. It helps if you know what you want to do with your socketed items. Remember, when creating a Rune Word, the item has to have the exact number of sockets, no more and no less. If you want to create a Rune Word that needs four sockets and you take an Elite item, that can have up to six sockets, to Larzuk, then he'll put six sockets in it.

Experience
DOES ANYONE HAVE AN EXPERIENCE CALCULATOR ACCURATE FOR THE CURRENT PATCH?
DOES ANYONE HAVE AN EXPERIENCE CALCULATING-ALGORITH
I've heard/read a lot of things about d2's experience calculation formulas and IDK what to trust.
As far as I know, these are what effects the experience you receive:
***Monster-type [Normal, Champion/Ghost,Uniqu
***Difficulty [Normal, Nightmare, Hell]
These 2 determine monster's level and base experience?
***Your level
I think the experience you receive is inversely proportional to the level difference between you and the monster?
***Players in Game
***Players in Party
Obviously more players translates to more experience, but is it a linear relationship? is it an inverse and linear relationship for players in party as well? If a party member is in town, does this effect this? Is there some sort of rounding that happens so even numbers of party members translates to more experience? [eg. top 2/4 vs top 3 on Baal]
***Player level to party level ratio?!
I thought I had read something about experience you receive is proportional to (your level)/(sum of other party member's levels). Does this mean if you're 98 and you kill Baal with 7 level 60's you get more experience than while killing with 96+ party members?
***Killing-hit bonus
I hear it's 10% but 10% right off the top, or off the monsters base
***Misc. bonus
Obviously there's Shrines, Annihilius Small Charm & Ondal's Wisdom, but like killing-hit bonus, is it straight off the top, or what?
What is this stuff I hear about wave-2 glitching in Baal runs? Is there any merit to this?
Finally, what experience do the Ubers give? Duriel, Lilith, Izual, Mephisto, Baal, Diablo?|||The operative phrase here is, "FOR THE CURRENT PATCH?" So, I don't know if this will be of any help:

How to: High resolution?
How can I change the windowed mode to play in 1920x1080? I've seen some screenshots of people playing in 1440xsomething in widescreen modes and the area of sight is much much bigger. Current I can only have the game in windowed mode, maximized and still have it as if it was 800x600 with my character five inches tall and the normal 800x600 sight range.|||
Diablo II's highest resolution is 800 x 600. If you wish to continue playing in windowed mode and want to drag the window to fill the screen (or maximize) then leave the -w parameter and add -nofixaspect. Be aware that you will not see more of an area while in-game. It will just stretch what's already there to fill the screen. You may not want to do this as it will not keep the original aspect ratio, causing the entire game to look out of proportion.
If you prefer to play the game fullscreen and not in windowed mode you will need to remove the -w parameter in the command line for running the game.|||the only way to have diablo 2 fill the screen is if your display can show 800x600 on its own. many widescreen monitors dont support 800x600 but i have a widescreen tv that does display 800x600.

Delerium n Bugs
Delerium has a few bugs with it involving hierlings. The biggest one being after a merc morphs if the morph is triggered again before unmorphing you will crash. If someone else is standing nearby (anyone) within screen visual of you they will crash instead and you will remain fine. Best I can tell this happens because blizz skrewed up royally (again what a surprize) After the initial morph the second morph looses focus "no hierling found". This bugs been there for quite a few ladders and has a pretty simple fix.... sooooooo why hasn't it been fixed? Would be the question I have.
Well further inspection it might not be spicifically "no hierling found" it might be passing the hierling as a doll is skrewing it up. the error is basically a "invalid param" which could mean a few things but still nothing complex.
I'm looking for answers due to the fact it makes it impossible to do any runs while constantly crashing.
If this is caused by other means than a diablo2 bug such as a wine error lemme know.

Love the glitches in this game.
I recently lost a 39 vita/15 DR dungo, and a P up'd gaze with a 4015 in it to a corpse glitch. Love this game. And no, the items arent dupes.|||Honestly, I have never lost any items due to a corpse bug in my 6+ years of playing over battle.net. Regardless, you should post all the details in the PTR if you honestly think this is a bug that should be fixed.|||Corpse bug, I've had once. Where you die 16 times..and then it pops.|||Today I was deuling my friend in the river of flame and I died. When I clicked on my dead body I got all my items except for my shield and then I died again. So at this point there was one dead body that had a shield, the other body, had the rest of my items.
I saved and exited then rejoined that game, thinking that I would get all my items back like I usually do. I did not get my items back. Only got my shield back. Thats years down the drain of constant playing to perfect my character's items.
Items lost value in high runes
ebotdz 402% - (was around) 15
Fort - 10
dracs - 1
treks - 1
verdungos - 1
arreats - 1
hoto - 5
hoto - 5
total loss ~ 39 high runes.
Please tell why this happened to me, was there some kind of glitch? is there any sort of compensation for this giant loss?|||
You need to explain more.
Now if you had more then one (1) corpse in the game it's your own fault. Never leave a game without collecting all corpses or at least all up to one since the game only saves one between games.|||
the cheque's in the mail.|||My lvl 68 javazon died on Hardcore.
My friend looted me and all my expensive items were there, except for my cheap ral ort tal shield I still had on switch.
very weird.|||Lol yes, there were 2 bodies.
I died once then came thru wp, and picked up my corpse (Got all my items except my phoenix shield).
Then just I started running around without my phoenix on..... my friend chased me into a bunch of
venom lords and they killed me of course.... so my frend said " Just rejoin my new game" ......so
i joined the new game and only thing in my corpse was my shield.
it would have made sense if i just had lost the shield, quoting support technician named Jason :
"The Game picks the corpse with the highest value of items, (value in gold)"
HOW IS ALL MY ITEMS WORTH LESS THEN PHEONIX ??|||Congratulations. It's nice to find something you love.|||
Actually, this sounds about right. The reason is that the value in gold of EBOTD, HOTO, and dungos isn't very high. Only the fort has a shot at being as valuable as the phoenix shield. Remember, it's not the 35k that you can get from the vendor for a high-end item, it's what it would cost in gold to buy such a thing if a vendor had it. I think Phoenix in a superior monarch would cost around 6-7 million gold. Assuming the fort is in a superior archon plate, the combined value of everything else you listed is about 4-5 million gold.
I know that doesn't help you, and I am sorry that you got hosed like that. I'm just clarifying for anyone else who reads this and thinks it couldn't happen to them.|||so you picked up your body with all your items, except your shield, and when you rejoined the shield was missing? sorry this doesnt make sense, if you had your items equipped they would have went with you.|||
This happened due to blizz's lack of will to upkeep their games. These bugs have all been around for years...... The prob is the guys that original made diablo if im not mistaken left blizz for their own project "HGL" or at least the ones that would have delt with this. so now their bringing others on and well weve all seen WoW ;)
EDIT:
As is i havent seen a bug get fixed yet cept 1 the cta bo as swap. which now no longer crashes
Gotta correct the no longer crashes :P it still crashes in certian instances however a basic use now just refuses to swap the weapon. sooooooooo ya now u got TWO bugs for the price of attempting to fix 1. TY WOW TEAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!
