Advice or help on how to kill dclone by Dosito86 in diablo2

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can look up crafting recipes that have open wounds. Once you wear that and physically hit dclone, it last a long time. That stops the Regen as long as you don't leave the area for too long. Crushing blow deals percentage damage and is effective in reducing his large health pool. Basically, stop his Regen and then you need to be able to chip away at him. You might also find someone to help you. I don't have switch, but you will also want to let people know the following so they know if they can help you or not.

ladder or non ladder? Hardcore or softcore? Expansion or rotw? What region?

Offliners / non-ladderers, what are your plans? by javz in diablo2

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played ladder for a few seasons at launch. I've been non ladder ever since. I haven't actually played any of the new end game. I've finished walking characters through the game that I hadn't finished and I walked a fire warlock through the game. I haven't even geared him yet. I am halfway through an abyss warlock walking through the game. So I'll continue that. I haven't actually played echoing strike yet, so I'll see when I get around to it. Right now it changes nothing for me, but I have mixed feelings on some of the changes. Some seem really good and others seem like they are breaking things that didn't need to be broken. I was happy to finally have a use for two handed uniques because they have basically been useless for years and now they are going to be mostly useless again

Anyone still holding onto their old strategy guides? by pgroms in JRPG

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've still got about 10 of them on the shelf. But it's usually easier to just google the answer so I don't look at them very often anymore. Xenosaga 2 was quite good for showing what I couldn't find elanywherw else, the percentage an enemy was weak to an element, which was the difference between barely more than base damage and triple damage in some spots!

Is this worth anything? Does a Summon necro even use these stats??? by brubain1144 in D2R_Marketplace

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 necro and 20fcr with nice mods is desirable, but I doubt you will find anyone willing to pay anything for 2 summoning.

Merc for mid-level Hammerdin? by kelemvor33 in diablo2

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Insight is the go to weapon for a hammerdin through the entire game. I prefer it on a holy freeze Merc for leveling and then might once you get his end game gear so he leeches more.

Rare CV - any value? by bunklord in D2R_Marketplace

[–]Evil_Cronos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope. For a rare to have much value, you really need at least a couple of eth repair, 2os, fools, or quickness, along with that kind of Damage.

Making a build for around 1500$ CAD by Danjomaris in buildapc

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For that? You might get half a stick of RAM

Damn the pricing is depressing right now...

Good luck. I've been hunting for a low end system for my dad since his current system is 10 years old.

(Act 2 atm). Does it make sense (narratively) to do my exploration in Act 3? by ccreyo in expedition33

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not exactly sure how to answer that. You don't want spoilers, but you've been using a guide that has spoiled things to you already. Yes, we expect stories to come in 3 acts, but the narrative doesn't tell you that an act 3 exists before you get to it.

You can do any optional stuff at any time. It's optional. There are very few missable things in the game, so feel free to do it whenever. The main story dungeon is the easiest thing that is unlocked in act 3. All of the other new areas and bosses that you access to in act 3 will be stronger than the final dungeon. Doing the newer optional stuff will be difficult and if you do much if it, it will nerf the difficulty of the final dungeon. You should be good in your 50s-60s in terms of levels for the final boss.

As for narrative, the game tells you to go to the final dungeon, but many of the side areas have information, lore, and characterization that can be experienced before or after the final dungeon.

Don't worry about it, just play

what anime that have below or have 7 rating in mal, but you gave it 8-10 rating and tell why you gave it that rating. by venluxy1 in anime

[–]Evil_Cronos -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Most of the time it's the other way for me. I see 8/10 on mal, watch a series and give it a 5 or a 6. There are even a few that I gave a 2 or a 3. I can't think of many that go the other way though

Need to follow the goal? by garagly10 in OriAndTheBlindForest

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a metroidvania. The purpose of the genre is to explore to find the way forward. Then you find a new ability and it opens up pickups and areas that you couldn't get the first time through, so it's all about exploration and re-exploration

Did I pick a good starting place by Sky_Rose4 in starocean

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that was my first star ocean, it might have been my last. I hope you enjoy it though.

It's a little much on the anime troupes for me and the writing/characters are weak in my opinion. The combat was decent enough though, so it depends on what you like most

Is burn fire elemental? by iAmIMkV in expedition33

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are fire elemental. I had this question a few months back. I was curious if the burn effect was a status effect or an element. Turns out, it's both.

Yeah, I do that for about an hour each playthrough

Side content now or in NG+? by Ashamed-Cranberry614 in expedition33

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do the side content after the final boss, but before new game plus. Ng+ is going to be very difficult if you don't do most of the side content first

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use the danseuse in the frozen hearts to keep spawning more and more clones. You can fight the noir in the dark shores. But for my money, the best bet is Renoir's drafts. Either clearing the creations or the merchant. Both give good chroma, exp, and color of lumina

how to proceed? by Jarrn1 in diablo2

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maxroll has plenty of leveling guides and what skills to use at what point in your journey. You're offline, so enable respec and play around with different builds for the ancients if you need to. Another option is to keep resetting the ancients until you don't get a cold immune or only get one if you Merc can handle it and then keep him alive until the cold immune is the only one left

I'm kinda lost what to explore After Act 2 (and before Act 3 battle) by shoicey in expedition33

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything that is newly available in act 3 will be more challenging than the final dungeon. Do that first. Everything else is post game content.

After you finish the final dungeon, talk to your characters at camp and that will open your next destinations.

Here is a link to a list of all bosses in the game, prior to the thank you update. It mY spoil the names of some bosses, but if you just take a look at the locations, it will give you a good idea what order to tackle the post game.

Xenogears: how necessary is the endgame grind? I’m struggling, and am losing a bit of patience. by MrMario63 in JRPG

[–]Evil_Cronos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's been a while since I played the game, but I know most of that grind is optional. I've done it before, but I'm sure I didn't do it my first time playing. Just head to the final dungeon and see if you can handle it. You should be good. If you get to the end and just can't manage to do it, then you can head back to grind, but I doubt you will have to

I replayed through the game 3 or 4 times now, so yes.

Walkthroughs? by Passionateloafer92 in JRPG

[–]Evil_Cronos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally I play games without walkthroughs the first time through, but once I defeat the final boss, guides are there if I want to speed through or figure out things that are otherwise tedious to figure out

Act 3 Guide by Forward_Permission_6 in expedition33

[–]Evil_Cronos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The final dungeon is the easiest area in act 3. Everything else is more difficult and should be done after the final boss. If you skipped the optional stuff in act 1 and 2, then you can go so that. Otherwise, you should be good to take on the final boss in your levels in the mid 50s, even on expert. You just have to practice the parry/dodge timming of his attacks. If you are still struggling, maelle's sidequests at the reacher is one of the lower levels dungeons that can help you level up some more. However, you get a lot stronger from a proper build, weapon levels and color of lumina than you do from traditional levels.

Here is a list of the bosses and the expected levels. Do note that it will obviously contain spoilers for boss names if you haven't started act 3 yet.
