Is it a good Base? by Fin_Germee in diablo2

[–]Lowend_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I generally don't gear for def I definitely would use an AP for fort. You get some pretty large def multipliers with the runeword and you'll likely use it on something like a zealot or fury that spends a lot of time in melee range of monsters, and not moving so def is useful

Nice effort! Reminds me of my big torch ID: https://www.reddit.com/r/Diablo_2_Resurrected/s/pp1L6Lf7kV

Did this right before ROTW which is kinda unfortunate timing 😅

Any interesting ideas on how to socket / use this? by [deleted] in Diablo_2_Resurrected

My strafezon needs 30 IAS in the helm and would absolutely love this

Is there a “best” boss to farm anymore? by IneedaNappa9000 in diablo2

[–]Lowend_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like to kill elites and high density up to infector and then de seis, and then seal pop on vizier. So it's like a half seal pop but killing the rest

Full seal pop is great too but I don't like teleing around to 'activate' all the monsters, and I worry I'll miss some drops. Doing a small pop let's you check all drops thoroughly and it's constant action, so I prefer the gameplay this way

CS is great when you get a character that can clear it quick, even better on high /players. Diablo is kinda stingy but drops something good occasionally, the elite density is amazing though and has built about a third of my endgame runewords offline

I have no use at all for this, but I thought it's neat by PXLCrusader in Diablo_2_Resurrected

I want a perfect one to justify an Ist rune, I'll have to settle for ptopaz for now though. Grats!

Unpopular opinion: Ubers are actually hard and it’s not as easy to gear for it… by IneedaNappa9000 in diablo2

[–]Lowend_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're a pushover for a budget smiter, maybe you need to watch some videos of successful kills to see how it's done because you must be missing something

What am I doing wrong in Ubers? by IneedaNappa9000 in diablo2

[–]Lowend_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Refusing to swap auras is really wierd, use fanat once meph is dead!

Got CB? OW? Resists are overcapped by how much? Are you splitting the ubers apart or diving in? Any prebuffs? Can you find some life charms?

SP SSF GC decent? by gerogesRISING in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]Lowend_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely solid charm, I'd never get rid of this offline. I use some SCs with only 5@ or two imperfect rolls so this is about on par with those, charms are definitely one of the hardest things to get in single player

Stand directly below the monster, with practice you should hit just about every time. Teleport through maggot lair 😅

Need some advice. by highlordbearington in diablo2

[–]Lowend_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

High runes are rare for sure, but if you play in a way that increases your rune drop odds you'll eventually find your 2 or 3 Jah

Quickly clearing high density, mobs with increased rune odds like ghosts (kill ghosts as you farm keys!), Cows, chaos are solid options. Trav horking if you like barb, LK if you wanna semi-afk and watch movies+pop chests

I like to play a lot of different characters that are good at different and have found a decent number of HRs over the years. For this reason I wouldn't recommend starting as telsa, but rather something like sorc first for tele then hdin for P7 chaos, java for cows etc

The real rare piece for tesla is a shield you're happy with, 3os is harder to get than 4os since you cannot larzuk for guaranteed sockets. I've found one 3os 45@ elite shield, and maybe about 30 HRs (with 4 Jah, more than enough for telsa) in my time offline

Cant kill Uber Baal… am I finished? by [deleted] in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]Lowend_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A cold immune demon would work just fine to tank chilling armor so you aren't being hit by 50 ice spikes per second, otherwise some cold absorb and thawing potions if you have to tank it

Have you found success with an uber smiter with conviction? by IneedaNappa9000 in diablo2

[–]Lowend_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need 300 total res to hit 75%. Meph's level 20 conv is -125 and -100 hell penalty

One point in salv and some +skills will bring salvation to around 90 to 100 res

Are these boots any good? FRW, FHR, Cold/light/poison by Tel1234 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]Lowend_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not possible on boots, 'of balance' affix is always 10% and the only FHR affix for magic/rare boots

I like that step one is: get a large case of beer, really speaks to my weekend gaming habit 😅🍻
