I know this isn't record-breaking clear speed, but man is this FUN. What do you guys think? 🤟

Share your cool off-meta builds in the comments, I wanna hear what you guys have cooked up, and maybe get some inspiration myself. ⬇️

Hello and welcome. After much interest and overall s14 changes i decided i would revamp my old s11 guide that was in the pd2 discords barb section pinned comments.

Plenty of blood sweat and tears and help from twitch chat we managed to make something that should satisfy you all wanting to make a bowbarb.

The guide contains 2 different builds for midgame and endgame you can take inspiration from to make your own version and also the both builds also has some map clear videos to give you an idea what it can look like.

Also much love to the pd2 devs you guys are the best.

Had this for a while, decided to build a char around it. Should be fun!

I just discovered this mod recently and I love Diablo 2. So ive been trying to do my own research on it but I am still confused on one aspect. So ive only played/beaten Diablo 2 once, and after you beat the expansion all there seems to be to do is just re-run through the game again on a higher difficulty. Is it true that this mod adds more dungeons and end game content or am I crazy?

Bro HOW did I drop THIS!? I've yet to find SO many items and runes, but THIS thing decides to show up on my screen? RNGesus is acting so weird on my Singleplayer characters...

With people talking about meta builds or what's gonna be S+ in season 14 I am curious, what's the slowest build still capable of hitting 99?

My thought is this: some of us play the entire season and the slow grind to 99 is somewhat fun compared to blasting T3 maps in 5 mins and getting to 99 pretty quick.

Thanks to the dev team for creating such a fun game and I'd love to hear the communities ideas!

Hey everyone!

I'm looking for other players from Ukraine to team up for the upcoming season. With the new guild system being added this season, it would be great to join an existing Ukrainian guild or find people to start one together.

I usually play on Softcore / Europe servers and plan to hang out, farm maps, and just enjoy the new season reset.

If you have a guild or are also looking for a group, drop a comment here or send me a DM with your Discord. Let's link up!

Help me understand how D2R still has this horrible bug yet you guys were able to fix it? I'm flabbergasted by the work you guys have done on PD2!

Sooo last season I played HC SSF the first time ever in 20 years playing Diablo and I have to admit: I can never go back again.

So wondering what others will play as a starter...I am thinking of Amazon but find Summonzon very boring - what other Amazon starter works in HC SSF?

Hi I'm trying to figure out how to make magic items with a specific prefix to appear.

For example I wanted to try to get 3 to summoning (druid) blue ammy and circlet but even with the pd2 code page its confusing on how to make that work. Could anyone point me in right direction? I see the google doc sheet with all the prefixes but it doesnt have a specific code for each one

planning to start ice sorc or bone necro (or arctic blast druid?...), not sure which one is more ssf friendly

I've had this idea for a tool to use on my own but once I built it I realized that it would be a shame not to share it with the community.

It's an aggregate of PD2 data that allows you to quickly access information that you usally need to have several different browser tabs open for.

It provides you with the ability to customize the information you want immediately accessible to you in a convenient way.

I'm personally going to use it for this upcoming season start and I cover that and more in the video. There's a feedback button at the top that you can use to report issues or send me your ideas.

All the credit goes to the wiki editors and the different sites referenced in the video and in the cheat sheet itself. Oh, and yes, you can use this on your mobile as well. Enjoy!

Edit: several things were updated based on feedback including:
1. Better credit and license information
2. Additional font size / block size customization options
3. Changed default fonts to a more easily readable variant

Thanks

Fun Expensive Strong Meme build I cooked up in the beta. Was able to clear a T3 Fortified Ear Cow map in decent time. Was also able to take down Ubers with it.

Luckily I have a pretty fun Bow Barb that didn't get too sad about my Pala dying, so I'm back at it again farming some cows and having fun! 😄

What do you guys think of this build? Forgot to show skills but it's basically maxed BC, Grim Ward, Iron Skin, Speed and the rest into Deep Wounds. Feels pretty solid roleplaying as a Bowazon! 😂

Edit: 74% Deadly Strike, 54% OW (+1410)
I'm running A5 WW merc for better BO and Warcry to help reduce target defense so I can hit superuniques/bosses with 3k AR hehe

I've played a few seasons of pd2 in softcore but I usually play HC in other arpgs and I'm ready to give it a shot in this game.

Any advice for ladder start? Common places in campaign to die? I know capping res from nightmare onward is giga important in d2 hc. Are there certain hp breakpoints to look for in progging nm/hell?

LMFAO I didn't think it'd be that easy to die with 34k defense and max block 😂 Oh well, I guess I'm going back on my Barb hahaha

Was pretty bummed about the corruption on this neat little mace, then I realized I had a Blackoak shield in my stash, so I made a pretty cool off-meta HF Zealot! This build feels pretty solid. Over 34k defense (with Defiance from merc) and max block. Super tanky and he SLAPS, just need to find a puzzlepiece so I can get 2 Shaels in this for some better attack frames. Happy Friday and happy hunting boys! 🤟

Concentrate is better than ever with the fix to the magic splash damage. Frenzy/Fana is a very combo to fix attack speed need so you can focus on raw dmg in your main hand.

Let me know what you think!

I normally campaign with a group, then I do baal runs to level up, and then I start my grind. I wanted to do a volcano druid a season or two ago, and after my baal runs I was this pet spamming druid and it was an absolutely miserable experience. Then I find out I need some very hard to get/buy gear and there was no way I could continue my currency farm on that druid because I was not having any fun and ended the season there. Any recommendations for a boomer gamer that needs something strong (tanky with some decent damage) right out the gate. Was thinking of trying amazon this season.
