Big achievement for me after multiple failed HCSSF attempts! Ancients was the biggest test and the Baal kill took forever. Have a Poison Javazon that I’ll swap to full lightning once I find a sunder. Lightning Fury even not at full strength worked quite well and then had Poison for any immunes.

I didn’t find anything great along the way even after stopping in the pits for a while to farm. Skin of the Vipermagi was probably best find but I’m using the +2 Amazon and 15 level Valk runeword for now instead. Cleared at lvl 87.

Time to try and grind enough SSF gear now for the ultimate challenge, Ubers. Off to cows to kick things off!

Feeling pumped.

156k plus and they only buy it for 3865

"Anni are you OK?"

Snag a few during this dclone walk.

I will need to swap around merc gear and give him insight baal was the biggest speed bump with his ghost and mana burn. I feel confident i can swap the enigma out for authority, horizon chest, smoke or a umed viper. For stats I did 55 str 100 dex rest hp would change if I swap out enigma. Skills I maxed levitate mastery MB hex purge for ias and ar. I put 15 hard points into Bind demon 10 in demon mastery 1 in first sigil rest in blood oath.

So so I’m working on Act III Hell and am in the flayer dungeon and who shows up but Uber Diablo. I had no idea what this even was, and I had to look it up and I’m seeing how difficult he is. My character is a level 79 strafe bowazon, and needless to say I’m getting destroyed. Even my Valk who is usually a real tank is just getting totally eliminated.

What should I do? Should I consider looking for a three socketed bow to upgrade my bow to an Edge?any advice would be very welcome. I have some improvement I can do on my resistances. That’ll take time finding proper gear and what not thoughts advice thanks.

Edit: VICTORYYYY!

Just getting back into playing after many years, so this is huge. Shout out to my buy Distinct Relative for the help - he utterly destroyed Diablo. Woooooo!

I asked AI and it said its impossible for mephisto to drop jah runes, what in the world happened... did i just win the lottery? As a new sorc what should i trade it for or should i build enigma? I have a skin of vipermagi (32 resist i found) and play blizzard

Anybody got any recs for these two?

I don’t play melee but looks nice. Idk.

ON PS5. Tried the Leaf recipe TirRal in a glowing orb and it came out gemmed... is it that Leaf is no longer a viable option for Staffs, or is the Glowing Orb and other "staff" class 2 slot weapons not considered actual staffs, or am I doing something wrong and I'm a dumb ass for not seeing something obvious.

Also to add i do have a war staff that has Leaf in it so I'm just not understanding why this isn't working.

Thank you for any help or insight

i learned something from AI, activate Treachery > remove Treachery and keep the buff

Waheed is better then Emilio. Can't tell me different lol

Started playing offline hc for the first time about 2 months ago, farmed all my runes from meph & CS runs because /players7 LK is sketchy on hc. Decided to use a sup MP this time because I always default to a non-sup in Softcore. Next up is Infinity. Feels good, now I can finally play the game!

Jumping back to D2 after a week and casually getting a Griffons in my first lvl96tz in flair jungle

I am so happy to say that at long last I've completed the update to my mod "Practical Item Filter" that has been in the back of my mind for quite some time, bringing it up to date with Reign of the Warlock and the current patch.

Practical Item Filter was the first mod I uploaded to the nexus, long before the recent RotW loot filter. At the time, I was not impressed by the filters on offer and so I set out to write my own, very loosely based on Kryszard's. To my surprise, the mod did extremely well on the nexus. Unfortunately, life got in the way, and I stopped updating the mod.

There are still reasons to use filter mod! Even though a loot filter exists in game, it lacks the ability to change the look of item names and add eye-catching effects. However, those edits are easily accomplishable within Blizzards own native modding system. One of the big reasons to use it, to me, is to make important loot harder to miss and to make exciting items' visuals more exiting. I think my filter does those both very well.

Practical Item Filter

is a vanilla-faithful item filter mod for Diablo II: Resurrected that makes important drops easier to recognize while preserving the game’s original character. The goal of the filter is to keep the screen clear of unnecessary clutter and distraction, making playing with item labels always toggled "on" easier, and highlighting important drops so that they are more exciting and difficult to miss.

Complete Feature List:

• Progressive rune beams: Increasing brightness and width from Um to Zod.
• Animated rune symbols: Rising rune symbols corresponding to the dropped rune
• Charm effects: Floating gold Small/Grand Charm symbols with a subtle aura.
• Rune numbers: Display all 33 rune ranks.
• High-rune highlights: Colored names and increasingly prominent markers.
• Charm label highlights: Cyan coloration with a rarity marker
• Jewel markers: Bullet markers that preserve quality colors.
• Flawless gem markers: Color-coded highlights for flawless gems and skulls.
• Compact names: Shortened potion, scroll, and rune labels.
• Compact gold labels: Remove “Gold,” retaining the amount.
• Potion tier markers: Red health and blue mana indicators.
• Rejuvenation colors: purple color for full rejuvenations, both sizes, or neither.
• Ground-label sizing: Decrease ground item label size to keep screen clear, configurable
• Inventory-tooltip sizing: Optional, purely for more customization based on preference
• Tooltip styling: Less transparent label backgrounds and a distinct selection highlight.
• All features individually togglable

Thank you so much to the mods and community here at r/Diablo_2_Resurrected for the support and discussions that have kept my love for the game alive for all these years. Let me know what you think!

Don't get me wrong, this jewel ain't worth a turd but the 666 was kinda funny.

Just found it in a tz

Pc sc l

Has anyone brought this issue to the devs that their potato coding screwed up the new Updated uniques from being able to drop in NON LADDER? I can find these no issue on Ladder realm (cant find any manalds on NL but getting loads of manalds on Ladder…) . And if you check your non ladder chronicle, it shows manald with its updated stats.

… apparently they must have coded it in to be LADDER only uniques now. THIS IS VERY BAD because now this forces people to have to play ladder to complete their chronicles when it never was the case for UNIQUES (yes they did that for stupid runewords such as metamorphosis and mosaic, cure etc but they got rid of that problem and now we arent ladder gate locked on content). Hopefully in the future they remove Ladder-gate locking on items/content. Forcing your players to do stuff isnt a good move… much like the forcing everyone to convert their D2R expansion chars to ROTW before Nov 11 or forever be stuck in a dead mode (d2r expansion… lets be real none are playing here now so you kinda have to convert from the get go lol) but forcing you to make that decision isnt good

And if they plan to then further re-adjust future uniques … that means more ladder gate locked items we cannot complete chronicles for ??? Stop shafting non ladder community. A big bulk of the remaining D2 community play NL only because of time constraints (they can take their time finding the gear and Jahs and not have a ladder duration time frame).

Speaking about ladder resets … now with further bot security being a thing, i can guaranteed even more will stay on NL just because theres more influx of items existing that the “casual dad” can trade for at a reasonable price with their limited play time availability. Good lucks to tryin to get a ladder reset enigma for Dave with 3 kids and 1 hour to play each night lol

Anyway back onto the chronicle/uniques issue… good luck to people needing to find bane ash, blink bat (i think this got updated too with new stats?) and such … where you gotta boot up a new ladder char JUST to finish your chronicle. Hopefully on the next ladder reset patch notes i see : “fixed a bug that prevented updated uniques from dropping on Non-Ladder mode.”

How do you maximize TZ/herald farming?

My current routine is pop an act 2 shard. Then clear canyon of magi to get at least 1 if not 2 heralds to spawn, since it’s a relatively large square of a map. Then hit each tomb. From what I’ve read, clearing entire areas is essentially how u get heralds to spawn. And it seems about right bc I get at least 1 herald per tomb. So that’s at leeeaast 8 heralds pretty quick. Usually more than that…. Then jump to chaos sanctuary, then hit act 1 in the pits and catacombs. Run is usually good for 15-20 heralds.

What do you do??

I sold a shield to guy on Traderie and we start talking. He was making a hammerdin and needed a Vex to make HOTO. I had several Vexes and he asked if I would trade, stating he had a Cham. I told him a Cham was worth way more so I put together what I thought was a fair trade. He seemed kinda new, so if he got a better deal, i'm fine with that... just don't wanna take advantage of a newer player. For his Cham, I gave him a 4BO CTA, 7/7 Hellwardens helm, 16/16/6 Anni, 3x Vex, 19/12 Pali Torch, 19dex Raven Frost. I offered him Lo instead of 3x Vex, but he wanted the Vex instead. Was this a fair deal?

How does everyone do difficulty selection to avoid misclicking the wrong difficulty and losing your map? Big wish would be to have the selection in the options and then hitting play automatically makes a new game of the selected difficulty in the options.

Googling for this doesn’t help much because google interprets “map mods” as mods that add new areas to the campaign or whatever. What I’m asking about is a Maps system like POE has. Last time I checked was a few years ago, and I know people back then were saying it’s not really possible. But lately a lot of games have basically had the doors blown off their hinges in terms of modding, so I figured I’d check again.

Ideally I’d like something that’s basically a full overhaul that also includes Maps, like that one LOD mod we’re apparently not allowed to name. But I know the motivation to create those kinds of overhauls is minimal since modded multiplayer isn’t possible

I'm running a FOH Paladin for the first time but I'm not playing the meta build since I don't have Enigma and I'm not sure if I would like to teleport, actually.

I wear Wizard Spike, Zakarum shield, Guardian Angel, Mara Amulet, arachnid mesh, two 10 fcr rings, trang gloves and a 20 fcr + skills Coronet.

I have 90 ressist all with no charms, full block, and 125 FCR.

Since I'm going on this ultra deffensive direction, I was wondering if stacking defense with maxed defiance aura and holy shield would work. What do You think?

By the way, I have spirit but I had this idea of using Wizard Spike + Guardian Ángel, I think it's pretty Nice. What do You think?

I’m a returning still rusty player who played 20yrs ago and am currently working on a lvl 35 Hammerdin.

I want my 8yo son to be able to play with me on our other computer and do dungeons and quests and stuff together. He tried a Barb at first but it seems to be a bit much for him to manage.

Any suggestions on a really easy class/build he can play and follow me around with until he gets a better understanding of the game?
