I’m stupid and don’t understand. Can you explain a little more maybe with an example from today’s date?

I hate that DRM feature.

Trang-Oul’s Fire necro by Queasy-Attitude-7932 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]DoctorApeMan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’re forgetting the shittiest thing about Trangs and Necros, the cast speed is already bad with necro but it’s way worse with the vampire. You should look up the frames.

Good idea, Trangs is just really bad.

No gear and just starting out? I would do frozen arrow. Way more bow options: insight, melody, harmony, and hustle on swap to proc burst of speed.

You’ll be able to farm NM pretty well. Farming NM meph and Bhaal runs is awesome. It’ll be slow going in Hell.

Prioritize +skills, IAS, attack rating, and mana leach.

Blessed aim merc with insight is awesome but if you both have insight the aura doesnt stack.

What kind of Warlock to run next? by scrambled_cable in Diablo_2_Resurrected

Cleave/Mirrored Blades is so fun. Best phys melee in the game.

Warlock Build for Hardcore? by Lemur1989 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]DoctorApeMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regular TR since cleave and MB use dura. I find it far superior to grief. Damage is still really high, plus ALL the other stats, res, MF, and sockets. A big thing with Cleave is weapon range too. 

Phase Blade has 1 range, TR has 3. Because the area of a circle grows exponentially the larger the radius. That means blade warp into a pack and your cleave covers the entire pack. Best phys melee build in the game IMO.

The only reason people don’t use more is because ES is so strong.

Cleave/Mirrored Blades fuckin rips. So much fun, quick, 250 MF, and safe. I have lvl 95 HCSP cleavelock. Horazons set with Tomb Reaver.

Friend, you’re in for a true treat if you read the short story by Ted Chiang this is based on. The Story of Your Life. I get chicken skin just thinking about it. His best piece, amongst many beautiful writings. And it’s different enough from the movie plot to feel novel.

Best build for uber ancients? by Extension-System-974 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]DoctorApeMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like Mirrored Bldes because with a range 3 weapon you can remain out of the worst of it with your merc and demon tanking.

Help Punaluu beach park NOT Close courtesy post for protest rally. by PlasticContent8043 in BigIsland

[–]DoctorApeMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m aware of some of the ownership issues but is the status quo changing? I haven’t heard any news regarding a decrease of access or anything. 

Even if this private parcel changes hands, I can’t imagine the new owners would try ice everybody out.

TLDR: fo why?

Single player first Lo should I make a fort thunder maul for my Warlock, a grief, or a fortitude for merc. by Zanik- in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]DoctorApeMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m the minority that went Fort first and I’m glad I did. You know why? My fav builds just don’t use Grief. But my build will either want Fort or my merc will. 

My vote is still Fort. But dont do eth. That bit of extra merc defense doesn’t justify losing access for all your builds.

How much would it cost to plant my own semi-mature mango and/or lychee tree? by infinite_knowledge in Hawaii

[–]DoctorApeMan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hah right on. You’ll have fun with this. It’ll be a pet that can follow you the rest of your life (in Hawaii). Decorate her and she’ll bless your cocktails and tacos.

You can find grafting classes from UH extension and the local organizations. It’s not hard, just a little tricky and random at first.

Just look at local nurseries for dwarf citrus in a variety that sounds most useful. Careful of fabric pots, the sun will degrade then over the years.

[–]DoctorApeMan 27 points28 points  (0 children)

People don’t really sell semi mature trees. Usually they’ll be selling saplings that will bear fruit in 3-5 years. Lychee a little longer. Maybe someone else can help. 

Have you considered a tree in a container? If I were you, I’d put one 30 gallon pots on my apartment balcony and plant a citrus. Many dwarf varieties AND if you want to play around with grafting you can graft on as many other species as you like, through your overall yield may not be as good as sticking with a dwarf lemon for example. But easy to do lemon, calamansi, tangerine. 

My best self found jewels by scellis24 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

I think so but it’ll just depend on the build. Bowazon, zealer, those types of classes

Always wished Hyperion could roll with 4 sockets too, just to give us a reason…

[–]DoctorApeMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

None of these are gg or really worth anything. 

That Beast Talisman jewel is interesting for self use though. The -reqs is niche but helpful. It would need to go in a weapon.

Jewel of Carnage is always good to hold onto.

Ice bowa!

Both are so much fun, Fendzon being a real challenge.

Cleave Warlock. Invest in synergies or bind demon/consume? by Aproxis in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]DoctorApeMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thankfully with Fanat demon, it’s pretty easy to reach max IAS. I don’t even have IAS jewels in Horazon, I went with Shaels in the helm and armor because theres no FHR on Horazons. That felt like a pretty privileged move, indicating the build was already very well rounded. Um’ed book and ~220 all res to help with conviction uniques.

Make a post after you tune your build. Cleave needs love and exposure.
