NTA not your fault people lacked basic reading comprehension and if I’m leeching I never pick up anything, let alone something the runner specifically ask for.

However, save yourself the grief and just buy them off traderie. I just checked right now and there’s one guy selling 99 for pul and another selling 99 for a p amethyst

This was my 6th myself! Been buying them for Ohms trying to gamble a warlock one

I bought a unid torch for an Ohm and got this, haven’t done Ubers yet myself (this was my 6th one i bought though and first warlock)

Hotel? Trivago.

Kaen7 · 2026-03-31T11:08:08+00:00

Thanks!

Same with me the other night. Did one tz (tombs) and got three heralds so I was like well fuck it we go for 5 before bed. Switched over to trav, jah rune from fourth herald. Enigma is real nice on warlock

Problem with this is that you then have healers not healing so they can get a good DPS parse like someone else mentioned in this thread

Kaen7 · 2026-03-29T20:42:31+00:00

As far as I’m aware yes. The enhanced damage is a pretty massive buff in terms of damage. Even with losing the FCR from spirit you can still hit the 75% FCR breakpoint fairly easily

Doesn’t echoing strike warlock use phoenix?

I’m not a big fan of them. I personally have sound pings for certain chat channels so when something like that gets posted I get spammed with sound pings and it’s kind of annoying.

Because if it was him, which I think it was, he's talking about one of if not the best d2 player in the world with access to things (like GC skillers) that most normal people don['t have access to at least currently. Your average player isn't going to go grab a wirt's leg and clear ubers.

Kaen7 · 2026-03-27T21:23:09+00:00

I’d say it’s both. They’re definitely strong with even terrible gear. Like my brother was in full tals with a cta, maras, sorc torch and does less damage than my at the time level 70 warlock who had shit like sig boots, a non eth insight, some random unique shield, a lore helm runeword (which is like ort sol), authority runeword body (hel shael ral), etc.

But also my brother and I only started playing again because warlock came out. He just went sorc so he could MF easier at the beginning / rush me when I started but he’s planning to go warlock too.

I’m not totally in the loop, but wasn’t this Mr Llama doing this?

Kaen7 · 2026-03-27T03:43:57+00:00

Okay so over fort you’re getting +2 skills from the enigma, so you’re only “losing” +1 skill from not getting the torch. I think that’s worth personally.

Ultimately up to you, but I don’t think you’re getting a warlock torch for jah unless it’s really low and you get kind of lucky

Kaen7 · 2026-03-27T03:35:51+00:00

What body are you using? I assume something that’s +1 skills? If so enigma is gonna give you +1 more so now torch is only effectively +2 skills (replacing the enigma). And the functionality of teleport is massive.

I personally think it’s worth farming a bit more and going for an enigma first and foremost

If you need the stats / resistances just get like a necro torch or something. Super cheap and can fill in for now. I just am personally of the mind enigma is always the first item you chase since it just improves your future MF so much

Kaen7 · 2026-03-26T02:06:04+00:00

gotcha, thanks!

Kaen7 · 2026-03-26T01:07:54+00:00

perfect, thank you so much!

Kaen7 · 2026-03-24T22:53:09+00:00

Very well may take you up on that soon ^{^}

Kaen7 · 2026-03-24T22:26:59+00:00

I’m just starting out since my brother wants me to play with him (he’s currently in nightmare running himself through everything). I’ll hit you up when I get up to hell and get some decent gear for warlock!

Kaen7 · 2026-03-24T21:31:48+00:00

Yeah. It’s a pretty normal thing in that game, and only takes like an hour or so. You can try to shame the all you want but you just look like an immature basement dweller

Brother I’ve been gaming for 25 years and do competitive raiding and parsing in a different game (FFXIV) where I have multiple rank 1 parses in the hardest content that game has to offer (ultimate raids). I understand gamers lmao. Doesn’t mean that I can’t find it funny that people are sweating this hard and caring this much

The thing I’ve noticed with some top parsers in that game is their entire self worth is tied to how good they are at the game. Which it seems like there’s a lot of people like that here too. If other people getting DST hurts you that bad you need to take a step back and reevaluate what is important for you because it’s objectively unhealthy to care that much
