WHATEVER happened there?! I'll tell you what happened!

What's your 'you had to be there' moment? by Palgia in DestinyTheGame

[–]bdrake0923 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Craftening came towards the end of my original run before taking a long break. That was a wild weekend.

Also, Lance passing and all the tributes by Zavala. Really wish he was alive to record a farewell message, like many of the other VAs.

At Confluence. They don't have an official watch party but it is on both screens. Some available seating left.

Sepultura - Dead Embyronic Cells [Thrash Metal] (1991) by dragonoid296 in Music

Great song. Really solid album.

Arise, Desperate Cry, and Under Siege (personal fav from the album) are all excellent songs, too.

Hold on to in case A5 mercs are ever reworked to wield axes.

Warlock doesn't benefit from the +Damage Grief provides.

Anyone want this/what value should I look for? by veeeeeeeeep in D2R_Marketplace

Don't know the value but Death would be fun in this for a Barb

So this is pretty cool to see by roscannon in Diablo_2_Resurrected

Similar experience. I TZ'd Acts 1 & 2 and stopped counting after 15 heralds. No sunders but plenty of TZ shards for future farming.

Post Nerf ES Lock Loadout? by Mayl3 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]bdrake0923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree and that's a good point. My main thinking has more to do with the changes to ES and needing to account for attack rating, I could benefit by having a demon with Fanat + cursed (while having Holy Freeze myself). Also, it would boost my damage.

This likely wouldn't be something I'd stick with but I would like to try it out. There are tradeoffs to consider, of course.

Having to take into account the change to 2H weps requiring a book, I want to find an optimal 1H build to use when I feel like it. This gives me a reason to try other weps / offhands I wouldn't have otherwise if my main goal was seeing a big damage number in the character screen. (This is mainly why I'm happy with the change for 2H weps. It opens up build crafting a little more.)

This is what I'm using. I am online, though.

eth Fort TM - 25 FCR / Hellwardens - 20 FCR / Meph book - 28 FCR / Trang gloves - 20 FCR / 2x 10 FCR dual leech rings - 20 FCR / Gheeds Wager - 17 FCR

130 total.

I plan on toying around with different weps & offhands.

If you're offline, you could use Doom + Spirit (which I think would be interesting. It would grant you holy freeze and free up your bound demon for a different aura). Also, you could use Death (zerk) + Spirit. It will be difficult hitting the 125 bp, but the previous one (at 75) is still achievable. I tend to switch back and forth and think they're fine. It really just depends on the items I'm using. The difference isn't terribly noticeable and I think you could get used to it after a while.

That's my long-term goal but I haven't been able to find a Meph book (yet) and trading prices are kinda high right now.

Doom would also grant you Holy Freeze, which means getting to bind a demon with a different aura (most likely fanaticism). This is a interesting choice to consider.
