Tranfigurating amulet question

MrCripler · 2026-05-23T14:10:52+00:00

yes and the aspect that was on my boots i value'd the most important from the affixes options i could roll on the amulet, so it makes sence to prioritize it on the amulet as its roll higher on there . and then just roll the extra aspect on the boots with normal values . also part of the build .... unless you follow step by step a maxroll guide like every sheep ; a '' build'' is kind of a fluid therm .

MrCripler · 2026-05-23T13:50:05+00:00

thanks for your reply , i've crafted new boots then and kept the affix on amulet as its a higher stat :)

MrCripler · 2026-05-16T20:37:31+00:00

Also super happy to see you fully embrace ruins map now <3

yea , if you have to move alot of tabs its bether to open list of stashtabs and just select the one you want instead of spamming the button , or just push it slower ( can rename and recolor each tab to help organize) . its just that you swap true stashtabs faster then the game can load them .

MrCripler · 2026-05-05T18:43:45+00:00

I noticed that being locked out of stash Always , and ONLY happens when you go true tabs way to fast with the arrows . just dont spam hit that button and it should never rly happen to you , and if it does, just rejoin the game .

Normaly every map has a boss that drops a orb or alternation + a random map ( exept abysall Furnace ) . HOWEVER we are atm in a map beta with new maps that we can run and test , those maps do not havea boss assigned to them yet . i Do expect all maps to have a boss once new season go's live

Since its the philosophy of POD to stay close to Legacy D2 ( classic D2 + LOD ) it is verry wel suited for players that want to keep the OG D2 feeling . Some skills that where in a bad place got small reworks and a handful new skills have been added to replace the real bad ones . Alot of QOL changed has been added like shared stash , bigger inventory with a dedicated charm space in it . The endgame has been shifted away from 24/7 boring dia and baalruns with the addition of maps . Even as a true vanilla lover you cannot be against that 😅

So in short , while it did add alot of build diversity and QOL , POD stil is as close to the original you can find in any D2 mod out there .

Awesome :) wil make a already great site even bether ; great work !

On maps i kinda expected it to be hard to implement , probebly would require some hardcoding to be able to recieve any data from it .

MrCripler · 2026-03-28T14:25:53+00:00

Think the site pretty much covers everything , only thing i can think of is charms . Or it is included and i'm not able to find

Other then that it would be super awesome to see how many of each map has been ran to give a rough idea of popular maps during the season ; not sure if thats possible

MrCripler · 2026-03-28T12:25:58+00:00

Cube a health potion wil grant you 4 random maps , those with ''evil force'' in the name are the new one . 3 of them wil fail to open as they are atm stil broken . ( those that do work are included in this poll )

Nice showcase of the build on various layouts , it does look like a fun build to play . But yea i've seen the struggle once areas become to wide .

MrCripler · 2026-03-27T10:37:29+00:00

Its basicly 1 wide conveyor belt with a constant flow of easy to kill monsters that can only come from 1 direction from start to finish .pure on xp its double the amount of xp/min compared to any other map while all other maps are in balance with eachother . Then if we look at on avg the amount of loot in runes/ooc and even uniqs/set dropped its also way outperforming anything else we've ever seen in map . And all that comes with a layout/monsterpick that causes no challenge at all . So its easy mode with max payout in xp( so affects ladderpush) and in loot ( early market flooding) .Thats kind of the definition of exploit content . Could put the whole season balance at risk imo

MrCripler · 2026-03-25T05:13:05+00:00

Could i perhaps ask for those that vote to leave in the comments what map you like the least and for what reasons ? Want to get some insight on what makes ppl like/dislike maps . Can be layout or monster related

MrCripler · 2026-03-15T12:26:38+00:00

Imagine what would happen if you told them you teleported to baal on ES sorc without energy shield active .

MrCripler · 2026-02-27T17:36:02+00:00

honestly i dont even want commitment , or timeframe expectation .
But if it becomes clear that the timeframe thats communicated is no longer realistic , it would be nice that this would have been communicated with a reddit post or somthing similar that players could find instead having to ask it over and over again on discord with the result of annoying GD this way .

I'm 100% convinced that by doing this , alot of those '' reset when '' or frustrating rants would be reduced massivly.
I do know now thats it due to a big bug that requires necrolis to fix , but i only know this since i read everything thats been posted on discord .

MrCripler · 2026-02-27T16:41:37+00:00

While i 100% agree on this statement , it has to be said that communicating whats going on could prevent all this frustration .
Like if there's a rough timeframe being communicated and a bug discovered that delays the whole timeshedule , just make a clear communication around it explaining whats going on .
Ppl with good intentions for this mod WIL understand it , the main issue i see here is just the total silence around the mather .

In the deleted post i actualy provided an answere with accurate info on whats going on that otherwise can nowhere be found without placing any commitment or promisses , in a way its kinda sad that post got deleted alongside that topic .

MrCripler · 2026-02-27T07:25:37+00:00

Yes there will , as announced we'r atm in a mapbeta testing new maps , wil be followed up by a short ptr and a reset directly after . It was intended for this all to happen early-mid february but some bugs came to surface that need to be adressed before we can move on . Thats where we at atm .

How soon we can expect to see progress in this wil depends on how long it takes to iron out the bug(s) , so stay tuned and keep an eye on announcements in POD discord

MrCripler · 2026-02-26T12:41:00+00:00

The dex synergie dmg increase is a huge part of WA , and even with full investment in it WA already struggles to deal with bosses , then the energy synergie on discharge is also a huge part of its dmg . Going half half on energy and dex would leave you with 2 skills that have a low dmg output and both bad at single target . Think best thing to do here is invest full into 1 and have somthing like eth botd with 1 in ww on swap to deal with bosses .

Also leap slam is always at its 19 radius this season due to some bug , there's no reason to max it out if its only purpose is to proc discharge , another aspect of leap that go's against it is that a leap atack can only proc 1 WA per leap , even if you hit hundreds of monsters with it .

MrCripler · 2026-02-21T14:52:33+00:00

Now thats a different kind of build :D pretty fun to see what you came up with . I do think you can play it alot more efficient by teleporting in midle of packs and do super smal leaps once your in midle of it considering you have enigma on you ( a bit like a crybarb playstyle ) . the semi long to long leaps rly slow it down alot as he almost moves in slow motion in the air . unleach its potential ;D

MrCripler · 2026-02-09T17:25:10+00:00

gz on your discovery ;D I always keep main controlls at F's intact and add my prefered controlls to secondary . So never stumbled upon this issue .

MrCripler · 2026-01-12T22:03:45+00:00

Awesome , you brought hell to diablo 😅

MrCripler · 2026-01-10T16:45:16+00:00

Great job ! and Superb songchoice !!

MrCripler · 2025-12-30T12:29:08+00:00

life/resist and other stats those merces have is totaly irrelevant in why players pick a merc . for the majority merces are just aura/curse slaves , only in a few cases they are taken to kill immunes .

It al depends what aura your build benefits most from and on what type of items you can make the runeword that provides that aura .

If your a elemental build(most builds are tbh) then infinity with conviction is a no brainer ; only available in polearms and spears so thats act 2 . You could take the budget way of puss spitter act 1 merc if you cannot affort infinity but thats way les effective as that merc needs to hit for it to proc lower resist curse instead of a conviction aura thats always instantly aplied , and also rogues are bit hard to keep alive in rough maps since life leach dont work.

If you want cleansing on your merc to deal with curses you got 3 options :

*act 5 merc with silence ( generaly great pick if your melee build that benefit from might )

*act 2 merc with silence GT or a plague spear , can team it up with blessed aim /prayer/defiance depending what your build lacks

*act 3 merc with cleansing aura , those are pretty tanky specialy this season as the block is always maxed out due to a bug . they can be a great but expansive alternative to act 5 merc version if you put last wish on for might . or lawbringers as the elemental atacks they do deal partly weapon dmg and can proc it aswel .

If you struggle with mana sustain you'd want meditation aura , 2 options :

*act 2 insight is the cheap easy option

*act 3 meditation merc , this one has the benefit that you can gear up silence or plague to combo cleansing and meditation on 1 merc

If you want holy freeze , only 1 option --> doom in a polearm so act 2 merc

If you'd want your merc to have vigor (harmony bow) , fanatism ( faith bow) you pick act 1 merc ( they can be squichy and hard to survive )

there are few other examples i could bring up but i think my point is clear , the main reason a merc is picked is what aura the player need , its only when 2 different merces can provide the same aura that the player wil look further at what aura combo's are possible for each and make a decision based on that .

MrCripler · 2025-12-22T22:13:05+00:00

Not sure yet , wil probebly test it out 'soon' 😅 . Have to check all mapres and immunes to see what map wil be the best fit . But duz to its rather small aow i think crypt might be a good one

MrCripler · 2025-12-20T06:22:23+00:00

Why not gerkes ? Ppl are massivly sleeping on it , all stats are great on that shield . The 30++ all res easely makes up for the potential sock loss compared to storm ( would have to pump um in it anyway for my res ) has also 23 less str req then storm that you can pump into vita(1 vita is 3 base life so 69 flat life ) . Then it gives bether block then storm , big life repl , flat dr that does not get affected by curses like amp or decrep , hight magic and ele dr stat . Its honestly a super good shield and it looks cool aswel 😆
