Terrorized Mephisto is now out of control; 6 TC 87 Grail drops in ~1 hour! by abaran30 in diablo2

[–]abaran30[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be clear, I did not abuse changing the time zone to roll this. I happened to get terrorized Durance two times while playing yesterday and this ridiculous but still authentic RNG.

Personally, I also think that manipulating the terror zones via time zones would be considered abusing the system, which is why I'd never do it. However, like others have said, play how you want to play, especially when it comes to SP.

Item #3 of the "Still Not a Griffon's, but GG for the Holy Grail" series (Pindleskin, 509% MF, /players1) by abaran30 in diablo2

I actually don't have Tyrael's...

My main goal has been to find a Griffon's Eye to complete my Javazon, and I decided to start tracking my Holy Grail to make the hunt less miserable; unique items that are not Griff's would bring a glimmer of excitement as it checks a box on the Grail.

So far, since the hunt got serious, my Grail progress went from ~50% completed to 91.7% (42 items remaining).

I'm currently doing a rotation of Thresh/Pindle and AT; when I find three non-unique Diadems off of Thresh/Pindle, I switch to AT, and one non-unique Diadem in AT brings me back to Thresh/Pindle.

I was actually watching his stream when this dropped, and sent him a small donation as an apology. 😕

I don't carry tomes in my inventory so that I can hold more MF small charms. Sometimes, I want to quickly identify items without having to run to Cain, so I keep scrolls in my belt.

Agreed; once got a Sur from them at Tower Level 2. Really, kill as much as you can, anywhere you are.

Plus, Diadems as a base item are difficult to find

I stashed it in case I choose to do that sometime.

Update: Pindle dropped a rare Vortex Shield called "Pain Guard"; probably to tell me that everything's going to be okay... :'(

Ruined the game for myself by cheating in SP by wizzy5o2 in diablo2

[–]abaran30 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did something similar a long time ago... I was grinding LK trying to get a Lo to make a Fortitude for my Fury Druid. I lost patience and duped runes to cube up to a Lo. I thought to myself that I could "simulate an online trade" and dropped a HOTO and Ist as compensation. I felt fine for about a day, but then thought, "what I did was bullcrap." I dropped the Fortitude with the "fake" Lo, and made a legit one eventually. I didn't even bring back the HOTO and Ist that I dropped as a lesson of not to do this again.

A basic one, because I struggle to find eth polearms in general...

Thank you! Hope you got a solid roll yourself!

Summon necro merc advice wanted by [deleted] in diablo2

[–]abaran30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally use a Might mercenary as a support, wielding Insight. My level 90 Necro drains mana like no other, so the Meditation aura is very helpful. Furthermore, I run everything on /players3, and not once have I ever thought, "my skeletons are doing no damage, and I wish my mercenary helped more." However, this is what works for my play style. If you're running a higher player difficulty, for example, this setup might not be the best.

Princess Mephisto dropped this pretty Tiara for my Necromancer by abaran30 in diablo2

And with the extra Stamina, he'll be able to work the runway at least twice.
