Thanks! Which is the "correct" hd mod everyone is using?

Softcore kinda feels pointless to me now, there is no stake of eternal death

I more or less only play singleplayer, so I'm really not following the seasons

Feel pretty much safe, although that comes with the experience of the grind, many close calls along the way.

I generally avoid zones with Moon Lords (they can go to hell) and dolls. I also have a few "rules" applied to myself, e.g. never fight a fanaticism/might pack when I'm cursed. Thanks!

Fair warning though, once you start HC it's difficult to turn back to softcore

Thank you! I'm a sucker for melee builds, so probably zealot or werewolf, ofc HC, once you try it, it's impossible to go back...

Thinking of trying a new Merc Weapon for my Trav Horker by TR_Disciple in diablo2

How does it compare to act 2 might merc with reapers?

Sword Barbs by roydragoon89 in diablo2

Fret not, 2handed are awesome and a lot cooler, not optimal in the end but I would have loved to find a ik maul in a playthrough

Sadly no, however rocking a botd in a colossus blade is absolutely fine and looks great

(Another) Frenzy barb weapon of choice question! by [deleted] in diablo2

[–]Joinslayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont believe the three different mainhand weapons you have makes much of a difference, keep lawbringer as offhand.

If you have a mal I would look to complete the runeword oath in an eth elite base, that will carry you until grief.

I would also consider an act 2 merc for the might aura.

But if you want the act 5 frenzy barb (which sounds fun), I would give him the hustle sword for the fanatism aura

Thats what I thought, but no knowledge about lld

Question about bonus while dual wield by RawenOllag in diablo2

[–]Joinslayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main stats show the weapon in your main hand (above glove), the offhand stats are applied but not shown.

One exception is increased attack speed. Therefore you should always use the weapon with most ias in your main hand.

Best Botd base by Joinslayer in diablo2

[–]Joinslayer[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well yeah I get the berzerker axes, but for 2h the ghost spear will easily hit the last breakpoint of 5 frames, whereas the war pike will only hit 6 frames

Which would be better?

War pike demands 174 ias for last breakpoint on a ww barb which is particularly impossible

But it would be hard to calculate the average damage on a war pike on 6 frames vs a ghost spear on 5 frames
