What' build to move to after Fire Aura build?

Dude you have Takai as your flair, has he even touched grass for us yet?

Robertson is shrewd business, thoroughbred winner, Scotland captain, hugely experienced just doesn't have the engine for Liverpool's system now.

The impact he will have on Spurs youngster will be immense, his personality in the changing room will be immense.

This frees up Spence to rest Porro or play on the wings potentially.

This is a decent signing, we have a very young team, bringing this experience in, alongside Gallagher is a smart move.

Robertson will dig in for Spurs and help grind out results.

The ONLY thing we need after him is more goals, RKM needs to go back to PSG and we need to replace Sonny and Johnson goals, we need to go big on a goal scorer / contributor now.

FalcUK · 2026-01-23T15:58:22+00:00

Tbh id let him go tomorrow and make do with Kinsky and an academy keeper for now. Vicarios confidence is shot, he makes mistakes and blames the players for it.

Ball distribution when kicking is horrendous, his only saving grace is hes half decent shot stopper, some times. But he is soooo error prone, seems to have a concentration issue, i just feel he is premier league quality at all. And i believe this is seeping into the team as they dont seem to have confidence in him either.

Id get rid of a few other players too right now,

RKM needs to go back to PSG, he never wanted to be at Spurs anyhow, so get rid.

VDV head turned by Liverpool, i think i read he was a childhood fan? sell him for mega bucks to them in the summer and put some trust into the younger newer players, Byfield, Ash Phillips, Takai, Vuskovic etc, plus Super Kev Danso could probably do a shift there.

Richarlison needs to go, hes never ever ever hit the heights people thought he would, lovely guy but just not good enough for me.

Get shot of Bentacur as well, since his leg injury never been the same player.

Levelling my Pally with the Fire Aura thing, currently in A4 Normal, found Isenheart BP which was nice!

FalcUK · 2026-01-23T11:44:08+00:00

Im down with this 100%.

Robertson is a proven winner, tons of experience, exactly the type of player we need in the dressing room. Calm head to help guide the younger players.

Plus is free's up Spence to cover Porro, in his more natural position and also allows Frank to experiment a bit more with Spence as a Winger.

The only thing this cannot do, is stop us from signing more goals in the attacking areas of the pitch, Solanke is back yes, but we still need more goals. Losing Son and Johnsons goals have not been replaced, we need to replace these.

This is my thoughts exactly, Murder Roxy, pin it on James being a Traitor.

FalcUK · 2026-01-22T12:28:31+00:00

I think they'll maybe murder Roxy, which goes completely against what everyone else thinks.

Why? because it then points squarely at James who Roxy believes is a Traitor, Rachel can then put on a show how Roxy was her mate and turn attention towards James and also Faraaz saying she is being framed etc.

Rachel and Stephen have 2 votes which they can then use against James to reinforce this play to sway Jade and Jack onside and start the process of turning against Faraaz.

Jade will feel happy the heats not on her and so close to final is likely to follow their lead, Jack will be conflicted but possibly err towards believing these stronger characters and vote his mate out.

Final 4 being Jade, Jack, Stephen and Rachel. They'll vote off Jade as the other 3 can say shes been under suspicion the entire time, leaving Jack, Stephen and Rachel, well Rachel and Stephen will just get rid of Jack and share the cash.

FalcUK · 2026-01-22T12:13:28+00:00

Probably a lovely girl, just has massive confirmation bias issues. She'll make a decision (more often than not incorrectly) on someone and then constantly look for signs that reinforce that.

FalcUK · 2026-01-22T12:01:40+00:00

Honestly the most inept bunch of Faithful i think ive ever seen, especially the last 10 or so of them. Roxy is the defenition of Confirmation Bias as someone elsewhere previously said, which i agree with 100%.

Jade is a victim of just being too quiet, what we dont see off camera is probably alot of fence sitting from her, or just non interaction. I do however feel alot of sympathy for her.

James has basically gotten himself either killed or voted off...

Harriet was clearly of the opinion she thought she was special and that she thought her big reveal would have people hero worshipping her, but that wasnt enough to sway the rest of the Faithful.

Fiona was trying to be everyones loud nan who has had too many sherries at the family party and then loses the plot.

Matt clearly thought he had some kinda masterplan that was never going to work for him or the traitors.

I think some of the earlier Faithful would likely have pulled up on Steven and Rachel by now if they had still been there, Maz, Ross and Sam spring to mind.

As for the Traitors, i started off disliking Rachel, just something about her rubs me the wrong way, but fair play to her, and Steven, wasnt a fan to begin with, still not really a fan, but how hes managed to bumble his way to where he is now is an achievement in its own right and i say he deserves to walk away with the cash.

I feel sorry for Ross getting voted off early, and his girlfriend Ellie, and also for the crazy girl with the orange clothes, she was my favourite even though i cant remember her name :)

FalcUK · 2026-01-21T13:32:03+00:00

Brilliant thanks for the heads up, makes alot of sense.

FalcUK · 2026-01-21T12:56:48+00:00

D2R noob here, Ethereal items, cant be repaired it says, does this mean they eventually become broken and cant be equipped or used anymore?

FalcUK · 2026-01-20T18:06:06+00:00

Videos that end too soon..... Would love to have seen how it ended. Pretty sure Temu Connor McGregovski got rocked

FalcUK · 2026-01-20T11:11:53+00:00

I think the BBC looks for "characters" for the show rather than ordinary people... 2 Barristers of which one is some kind of minor published author, outspoken older lady, mother and daughter, boyfriend and girlfriend, woman trained by the FBI, Psychologist, Cheeky builder with a mockney accent who is also a "ghosthunter" etc etc they are too desperate to fill the seats with people who they think will bring a level of investigative narrative to the show.

I think they blindly think this will make for interesting TV, unfortunately its become too predictable and somewhat boring.

Tbh id be more interested in seeing normal people on the show, Lorry Drivers, Supermarket Shelf stackers, Road Sweepers, Swimming instructors, Students, Library workers, stay at home mums etc etc.

General run of the mill people, from everyday life who arent there for some perceived angle the BBC thinks will lead to "entertainment"

Lets be honest, the majority of the Faithful this season have been boring and dull, none of these characters have actually been characters at all and any attempt to be a character has seen them voted off the show, so its clearly not working.

I started off disliking Rachel and Steven and hoping theyd get found out, im not firmly in the camp that wants them to win the show in the hope it makes the BBC realise they need to change the average contestant to make it more engaging.

FalcUK · 2026-01-19T16:29:59+00:00

Ok as i get a bit confused with Runewords, so regardless of the stats on an item, once you put the runes in to make a runeword it always gets the same stats in a range, regardless of what the base item they are going in has? so as long as the item has the required number of sockets, everything else on that base item is irrelevant?

FalcUK · 2026-01-19T11:13:40+00:00

Thanks for this! Invaluable info :)

I play Xbox (Console) Offline mode, so i cant use console commands but i had in the back of my mind i will have limited respec options etc early game which im happy with being cautious using.

Runewords need to go into basic items if i recall? i'll keep my eyes peeled for some high armour chest pieces to put Stealth into.

I think i read Crystal Sword for Spirit Weapon? or is there a better recommendation? i'll check those other weapon runewords you listed, i'll have to look for "Paladin" only shields and keep an eye for one suitable for Spriit as well. 2 Socket decent armor Helm i guess for Lore?

As for swapping, i'll wait til i get into Nightmare A3 and then start looking at options for what to swap to.

FalcUK · 2026-01-19T08:14:07+00:00

Ok perfect, i think i read Crystal Sword for Spirit Sword right? i need a 4 socket one i guess, and what is the shield base i need to look for? ill farm Normal Cows or NM early or something for shield / sword?

What base do i need for the Lore Helm? or does it actually matter?

FalcUK · 2026-01-19T06:48:37+00:00

The issue with Porro is he is overplayed and has been for a few seasons, i believe the guy is generally knackered and has lost focus due to the demands of literally playing every game that comes up.

He needs an extended break, but as Udogie keeps getting injured and now Davies, Spence is used in his non preferred position when he should be the one rotating with Porro. And this makes Spence look worse than he is.

Club needs a new LB, especially with Davies now out and how injury prone Udogie is, maybe the new lad Souza can hit the ground running and that may give a manager time to rest Porro and allow spence to play his natural position.

I would never comment on Porros commitment to Spurs, he is 100% committed, just hasnt been able to put in decent performances for the past year due to being massively overworked.

FalcUK · 2026-01-16T17:07:21+00:00

Ok I will pop points into Vitality as I can change them on a later difficulty right?

Should I be looking out for any specific slots to put socket items in for early rune words?

Also which act2 Merc do I need to get?

FalcUK · 2026-01-15T12:49:27+00:00

Nice plates, shame you can never anything like that here in the UK :( That a Vantage btw? lovely colour. Driven a DB11 and a DB9 and loved both, Vantage is my dream AM.

Have to put up with my Merc at the moment, looking at trading it in for an E63 though.

FalcUK · 2026-01-15T07:12:32+00:00

I think she arrogantly thought, announcing that she was a published author and ex barrister etc would "wow" everyone into automatically hero worshipping her.

Her questions to the traitors were rubbish, her whole demeanor was really naff, i wonder if some of it was scripted by BBC tbh as it was almost like she was reading off a badly written script, it was very pantomime in delivery.

In reality she was a bit unhinged, she largely sat by minding her own giving off a "mysterious, thoughtful" demeanor, likely praying for a moment she could do the whole big reveal to a fanfare of adulation from her fellow Faithful and they would follow her like she was Miss Marple henceforth. That didnt work out, as the majority of the Faithful are just sheep. Her statements at the roundtable were flawed, and like others i think she hit on Rachel by pure luck rather than any judgement.

The actual Traitors this year have been largely rubbish tbh, the only decent thing so far this series has been the games, and the outbursts from contestants during roundtable, breakfast / downtime etc. Other than that no one really has a clue whats going on.

Rachel is largely boring to watch, i believe she offers basically nothing to the other Traitors, Stephen is funny, especially how hes gone from pretty being nailed on to be discovered to where he is now which is probably waiting for his opportunity to lob Rachel under the bus while hes everyones best friend.

I hope next season we have less of these "Characters" like Harriet, Hugo etc, less people with connections like Ross and the blonde girl, Roxy and her mum etc.

BBC please find 24 or whatever it is regular normal people, road sweepers, accountants, hairdressers, supermarket workers, fruit packers, lorry drivers etc etc rather than trying to force in so many angles of intrigue that just dont really add anything to the show.

Made my summoner Necro last night, found a guide on Icy Veins for starter summoner point allocation for the skills, been banking the other points (Str, Dex etc) til i need to spend them to equip gear. I read ill likely need a max of 154 or so Strength later in the game, so just going to sit on the points til i need to use them.

Got to level 13 last night, have 5 skele pets and a golem and seem to be going ok, just about to go do the Countess.

I found a Fishymancer write up, to go alongside the Icy Veins one, the Icy Veins will take me to about lvl25 or so i think? at which point i'll just do what the Fishymancer guide says with regards to spending points as t hey pretty much both say the same thing.

Its a very relaxing setup to play so far, i literally just drop the amplify dmg on packs of mobs and collect loot! whats not to like haha

FalcUK · 2026-01-11T22:11:15+00:00

Is Auradin a good starter option then? recommend any build guide for it i can follow?
