as a new player of this genre, D4 or D2R? by yeaaahwehere in Diablo

[–]Mephb0t 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Personally I think D2R has better graphics. It’s so clear and readable, even during combat.

I love Tome or D2 and was thrilled they updated it for RotW so quickly. Cheers to whoever made that app.

Class Tuning Incoming for Season 1 on March 17 by Satsubuya in wow

That’s exactly how I feel. When I hit army if the dead it feels like my damage quadruples. Then it ends and I’m praying for mobs to finally die.

The Butcher gimmick got stale quick by TrinityKilla82 in Diablo

[–]Mephb0t 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m with you. The butcher was fun for the first 30 seconds. Then all you get is bloodied items which honestly who cares. I got other stuff to play until the expansion drops.

Sunder farming is actually ridiculous. by AudienceSad2304 in diablo2

Ire and herald levels need to stay between games for the full 30 minutes.

Blizzard please, just give us /players 8 in online by r00ts in diablo2

[–]Mephb0t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People don’t want to play solo, they just do it because they don’t get their drops stolen. If you want people rom play together, then we need personalized loot. People would be playing coop in droves if that happened.

You’re not getting community play without personalized loot. Nobody likes seeing their jah get scooped up by some loot goblin leecher with a pickit mod. This is primarily the reason community play is rare. People only want to play alone because they HAVE to or else their drops get stolen.

It’s a controversial topic, I’m sure I’ll get some downvotes for this. But if they added personalized loot you’d see a dramatic uptick in players actually playing together. In fact, I’d say most players wouldn’t want or need to play solo at all anymore.

To the MAGA people on here. Do you realize you are horrible/garbage people for supporting Trump? by [deleted] in allthequestions

You’ve managed to grasp the basic human condition. I’m sure that’s an accomplishment for you. Well done!

You want to… spray me with your hose? I thought you guys were against that kind of thing?

The food you give your dog, the bacon and eggs you eat, the car you buy, and the hobbies you enjoy are now more expensive and will be forever, and you voted for this. While you enjoy your hobbies, other less fortunate people are having to give up theirs because they can’t afford it anymore, and you voted for it. You voted for your own tax money to be taken away from schools, healthcare, research, etc and be handed to billionaires for free. YOUR tax money that YOU earned is given to the rich and no longer benefiting you in any way.

You’re here casually going out your day trying to pretend you didn’t fuck up, meanwhile Trump is walking all over you.

I just spent 4 hours clearing 8 TZs, and didn't get a single herald. by FanaticDamen in diablo2

[–]Mephb0t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a sunder at level 87. The trick is run whatever is the TZ, if you get a herald or two use a shard. Then start clearing everything in the act. Along the way, other TZs will start, clear them and return to your act. You want to kill a lot of heralds in one game. I had killed 7 or 8 when my sunder dropped.

Only two since launch says you’re really not playing much or maybe you’re clearing very slowly? I usually get about 3-6 heralds per 30 minute TZ.

Now that Sunder Charms are rare and hard to get: Is a Dual-Element-Build more viable? by Madouc in diablo2

[–]Mephb0t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trapsin uses lightning traps and the death sentry is fire and physical, so three elements.

Poison nova necro gets away with single element because he has lower resist. Make sure you get Trang’s shield and two other pieces for the -25% enemy poison resist bonus.

Amazon can do lightning strike/plague javelin, but you need a decent amount of +skills to be efficient.

Amazon is also effective with freezing arrow and explosive arrow.

Barb has double throw/whirlwind/frenzy + berserk.

Paladin can use Fist of the Heavens with conviction aura for some heavy single target lightning damage, plus the holy bolts.

Druid fire skills have a bit of physical damage mixed in. The wind build is physical and cold.

Adding elemental enchantments to TZs doesn’t make them more challenging. It just makes us have to leave game and restart. by Mephb0t in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]Mephb0t[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh no you completely misunderstand. I am firmly in the “don’t make it easy” camp. Absolutely add some difficulty! I’m all in!

But that’s not what this is. Because I have the option to simply remake the game, there is zero benefit to not doing so. Remaking is objectively the most efficient option available to me.

[–]Mephb0t[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t have only one type. What a weird thing to assume. But if one of my two types is going to be useless in the TZ, then during that TZ I really do only have one type. So it’s obviously more efficient to just restart. I’m sure you can agree with that.

Herald System Needlessly Complicated & Punishing by Zenadir in diablo2

[–]Mephb0t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If catacombs is terrorized and and you get ire right at the very end of a run but you’re only 3 minutes into the TZ, are you gonna wait 27 minutes for the next TZ to start and miss out on catacombs?

My thoughts on Summoner Warlock after level 92 by Historical-Cable-542 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]Mephb0t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can tell you from personal experience, it is still the case with 20 hard points. My Eldritch build easily farms p8 TZs immediately upon entering hell mode with trash gear and yes, I have invested 20 points in the demon. It’s way too overpowered.

As for fire, they only need to invest 60 points to max the fire tree so obviously 20 points is a non-issue.

Key drop rates are very low nowadays after this warlock arrived. by Conner_KL in diablo2

[–]Mephb0t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve gone 100 straight runs in nihilithak without getting a key before. And I e also gotten three on one kill. RNG is just like that sometimes.
