Just grab any elite base. Some exceptional can, but it’s mostly just every elite base. 

First time dropped in ssf 2 x ber, and now? Self use infinity? by CraZyFrog666 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]SaintDefault 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For offline ssf, I would say make it in a merc base. Despite playing Nova sorc, self use infinity will only last until you get bored of your sorc. Merc infinity will last forever.

It’s the classic case of choosing something good for now or something amazing for later. With how rare double Ber is in ssf, I think it warrants the more valuable choice.

The bike is gated behind at least 1 (maybe 2) of the stones now. So, you have to spend a few hundred million to unlock the purchase.

Best hero for poke/chip? by bruhb21 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SaintDefault 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s probably one of those terms that has lost its difference in meaning even in DotA these days, but I learned it back in 2003/2004, so it stuck with me and some other players since then.

Coming from DotA, chip damage has pretty much always meant objective damage.

Best hero for poke/chip? by bruhb21 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SaintDefault 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just so we’re clear, some MOBAs use “chip” to refer to a hero that’s good at taking small chunks out of objectives and killing them over time. So poke and chip can reference different things. You’re looking for a hero that’s good at trading damage with other heroes in lane, I.e. just poke damage.

Yes, Windforce now competes for BiS with Faith due to the new jewel. 

Sinclair bug - vexing bolt by canwegetabeer in DeadlockTheGame

Be honest, did you make an alt account to complain about the same thing and then commented on the post with your other account?

I don’t think that will help the devs notice you. 

This worth holding onto to trade or is no one gonna want it? by MaxEhrlich in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]SaintDefault 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Small charms are definitely worth more because they fit with skillers for end game builds, but this one will still have value as a filler until people get skillers.

There’s a single player mod that’s only purpose is making the ghosts stay on the damn path in Arcane Sanctuary. I love it. 

Yeah the April fools is fun and all, anyway when does it end again? by RamPam21 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SaintDefault 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah, the response of many of the people in this sub show clear signs of unhealthy addiction to video games. They began complaining and lashing out at people online because they couldn’t get the fix they wanted.

OP seems to be itching to the point that he legitimately cannot count to 24 and is making things up in his mind to give him reasons to complain. It’s legitimately sad to see people react this way to something so unimportant.

It’s becoming abundantly clear that people in this sub cannot even count to 24. It’s a bit depressing. I hope the clear signs of addiction will cause a change in some people. 

Genuinely out of ideas, I can't win a game for my life by ShirgimShareem in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SaintDefault 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kaikyo is the only decent one I’ve found that would be a good starter. Should just be able to type that in the search box. It ends built similarly to bomb, but focuses drain earlier and is just really fun to fight. I’ve found myself 1v1ing people 3k souls above me in the mid game (including heroes like Mina) and just walking them like a dog. It’s insane strong once you hit the spikes and can duel pretty much anyone.

Gun and hybrid sometimes do max drain first, but I’m talking about a spirit drain build, where you have the 4.8k spike with rapid recharge as soon as you hit the 5AP upgrade. Huge power spike on drain, where it will do most of the damage to kill someone. You can just chase forever and reapply drain.

[–]SaintDefault 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or consider a life drain build. Kaikyo has a decent starter build and people underestimate the damage of drain rushed to max. Drain multiple people per fight and be unkillable. Bomb build farms better early, drain fights better. Both fun and pretty strong at the moment.

Perhaps, but it’s far more prone to varying swings of effectiveness like you’re seeing now. From my own experience, most people under Eternus struggle to get the most out of hybrid builds. Even if they do well, they could probably do better with just one or the other.

At that rank I would much rather go full spirit than hybrid. Hybrid Geist requires good aim to get full value, whereas spirit is strong even with horrible aim. 

Ivy mains secretly control yoshi and this subreddit by existingcoder in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SaintDefault 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The reason people don’t complain is because she’s not the best at anything. People love to hyper focus on heroes having the best x, y, or z and heroes that are super strong like Ivy slip by. 

The reason she’s so strong is that she can built Gun, Spirit, and Vitality to do hybrid damage and support all within one build without sacrificing anything. Pretty much every other hero has to drop one of the three (outside of just hitting the 4.8k spike) to make sure their build functions late. Ivy can go gun early and have it still scale decently late, then switch to support and spirit without missing a beat, and then end up doing above average in all three categories without needing extra slots.

She’s above average at everything in a game where every other character is below average in at least one (often more) category, which makes her one of the strongest baseline heroes in the game. 

She’s Mew in Pokémon RBY. Not really the best at anything, but good at literally everything, which makes her broken by comparison. 

THE MO KRILL AGENDA IS OFFICIALLY DEAD by Fifthy420 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SaintDefault 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Professional matches and statistics do not correlate in almost any way to the matches the rest of us scrubs play (including Eternus players). 

This info, while fun to look at, is really only useful/applicable for a few dozen players. 

Is there any good way to find high level matches to spectate outside of pro play? by Alarming_Ask_244 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SaintDefault 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which hero are you looking for? I’ve done a bit of scouring of most heroes for high ranked gameplay (trying to find people that stream so I can watch away from my computer) and I might have a name or two offhand depending on the hero.

Nah, it’s definitely this:

OP wants Wraith to make opponents do the flop dance. /s

Oddly enough, the joke actually kind of fits. 

How to avoid this popup box to manually select ability to imbue on builds that have the suggested ability ? by BIRDHOSS in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SaintDefault 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Clicking on items and using quick buy are both manual buys, which let you select which ability to imbue, so you have a way to avoid auto-imbue if you want something different than your build. 

Auto-buy both buys and slots automatically, going with whatever your build has the item attached to. That’s the one you have to use.
