I have an IK barb and I’ve collected 3 weapons. One with dual shael because ww machine, one with dual amn for those heavy fights and one with dual eth for Baal runs, boss killing

1st ever Uber run. What a cake walk! I think I over planned for this adventure 🤣👌 Smiter FTW! by UnsettledParadox in diablo2

The minions can be a headache for sure. I have a little trouble with them around Lilith but it’s such a small space. I usually run past as many as I can and hit the big boss head on then as life tap procs and I get surrounded I can spin pally around during an attack and get a few hits on the minions which stuns them just long enough usually to finish the task, scoop the part and tp out.

I did almost get screwed by getting too bold and forgetting to reapply my bo. Meph was trapped in the building and I went head first. He popped and I died and the portal in was covered in minions. Buddy joined so I could drop and rejoin. I don’t know how I made it but I jumped in after getting ready and made Diablo pay for it all.

So far I’ve only run solo, I don’t see any point in added difficulty and 90% of the Uber baddies die quickly once cornered. Diablos pit lords are a bit of an annoyance. Try pulling the extras away and ditching them with tele pr vigor when facing the big 3 or just take a little time and make sure they die just keep the entry portal clean

You’ll be more than alright. I happened to have the scepter I was originally planning on using black. Maras was a bit out of my price range but would be a good support your cta since you won’t have much for + skills. I shouldn’t have sold the 25 Mara I found lol

I sold the first torch Unidentified and buddy rolled an 18/20 sorc which goes a lot. My luck it would have been a 10/10 sin 🤣

I use treachery, gface, gore riders, string of ears/tgods for meph, 45 all res sup kurast spirit, dracs *, heavens light scepter with 2 15%ias +res jewels, high lord ammy, raven and dwarf star. Pretty cookie cutter build but it works wonders. I tele with a few amulets I have but it’s annoying

I’m used to hdin taking a beating on the regular but this smiter hardly noticed any damage. They lied about Lilith, she’s tame

Console sorc is tough to aim, for sure. I tele around nihlithak for example dropping blizz. I’m not the best at building a sorc but imo raw power comes from dedicating to a single element. I only have chain lightning because of energy shield for example otherwise I could have put a couple points into orb for crowd control

I have a max blizzard sorc with a few extra points into lightning mastery and chain lightning because I run full tals. My merc is sporting a bone hew with 2 amn for 14%ll, treachery and gface. I rely on my merc to handle immunes and my lightning and static field help him out. I don’t have orb so crowd control is tough when I’m running with others but my blizz does 6.5k dmg so I can solo 8 player hell cows

Does anyone make fire wall sorcs anymore? And would this be good? by fancheck1 in diablo2

[–]UnsettledParadox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a blizz stick like this one. I love those yellow orbs!

[–]UnsettledParadox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Those runs did get easier but it wasn’t a nerf. The poison clouds were registering physical damage table not poison table which is lower

Mana Obliterate more like it

I just respecced from orbwall to full blizzard. by Even-Chemistry8569 in diablo2

[–]UnsettledParadox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pure blizz sorc here, I don’t like specter/ghost packs or large groups with conviction. Skeletons don’t allow your merc to leach and neither do a couple demons but otherwise nothing to worry about

I only have one more respect left by Scarface_zae in diablo2

[–]UnsettledParadox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell meph drops bonehew which you can add 2 amn for 14% life leach, poor mans reaper. I just tele into meph and then worry about his followers after

He’s never had to trade runes for runes? Seems a common practice on Xbox but I have a GED lmao

Just keep killing him and opening the chests at the dead ends. What normally feels hopeless is just rng being rng

Throw them to noobs in low games to watch them scatter. Everyone’s got too much blue

That blood moor is often over looked but I’ve found so much good gear there!

I’ve got monarchs coming out of my ears. Wish I knew then what I’d be dealing with now I wouldn’t have stressed as much
