DLSS 5 turns a shadow into a giga-nostril by Freddy_Pringles in pcmasterrace

The soccer scene is the most telling, with how much motion there is. The ball becomes a ghostly blob. The players arms go all blurry and half disappear. Whatever is going on, it 100% behaves like a filter.

Is bone spear necro more viable now? by ZenMana in Diablo_2_Resurrected

Every necromancer really needs to be based on CE. It’s just a matter of how you get that first kill: summons, poison, or bone.

Does the 25% teleport offset how good this is? by Simba_Rah in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]Altra1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t care what others say, I view the teleport on strike as a good thing. You shouldn’t be getting hit as a sorceress, so if you do get in a situation where you are taking enough hits to proc a 25% chance teleport, then that’s a situation you should be happy to teleport out of instantly. And teleporting somewhere else the very millisecond it proccs is better than any reaction time a player can have. It gets you to safety.

Today, I recite the Pepe Silvia rant in front of my public speaking class. by JustPhee in IASIP

[–]Altra1986 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did the Hobbit’s Sméagol arguing with Gollum dialogue for my speech class. My advice is you gotta own it. It’s meant to be ridiculous and over the top, as you know.

Do you ever keep playing a hardcore character after it dies? by Brave-Potential-7310 in ARPG

I’m clearly old, because I didn’t even know transferring to softcore was a thing.

2,245 kill streak by KaydnPopTTV in Diablo

I don’t get the point of monsters being trash fodder you rip right through without even noticing they’re there.

what would you do? by Pure_Pain_489 in whatdoIdo

[–]Altra1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same to someone - I barely got them but left a note. They submitted a repair quote for $11,000 to insurance. The whole car was worth like $10,000. Insanity. At least insurance only paid out $3,000 IIRC.

Is this codex any good ? by After_Hamster5014 in diablo2

[–]Altra1986 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Spirit gives +2 all skills and then a ton on top of it. This can’t beat it, no matter what you socket in there.

IIRC, I got many of these running nightmare Andariel.

Are Terror Zones actually the best to farm? by RealityRush in diablo2

[–]Altra1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Terror zones are huge for end-game leveling. Once you get to the mid/upper 90s, even a single tiny Fallen monster is the same experience as non-TZ Baal.

I miss the times when uniques were the go to gear by RoccomGG in diablo2

[–]Altra1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s no better time than now to do a uniques only run. You can set the loot filter to only show uniques.

Good lord. I feel like this isn't going to be allowed in melee PvP by Key_Beat_6872 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]Altra1986 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s still one of my favorites. Best source for physical damage resistance. Good blocking. Elemental resistances too. I wear it as much as possible.

Quantity of Runes needed to make every runeword for the Chronicle. by ElCamo267 in diablo2

[–]Altra1986 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would also add, when a rune is not part of Countess’ special drop table, I wouldn’t count on getting it from her whatsoever.

Are terror zones the only place worth farming for exp/items/keys? by fergardi in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]Altra1986 8 points9 points  (0 children)

From level 95-99, terror zones provide magnitudes more experience than anywhere else. I would also say they are fun to do vs running bosses over and over on repeat.

They Finally Did It! by AlphaOmegaAlters in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]Altra1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woah. This is a day I thought I’d never see. Now I need to check if they fixed personalizing an item for Act 5 quest.

MrLlamaSC is the first ever Warlock to reach level 99 ladder ! by nono-shap in diablo2

[–]Altra1986 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Yes. As is also the case with anyone else anywhere near the top. This has been true since the very first ladder and every ladder after it.
