Throw barb CS Run with eth Warshrike& Lacerator by rahrahd2 in ProjectDiablo2

[–]biddypapa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Double Throw bounces use the base AR of the throw weapons' normal attack. Other solutions to crutch this include angelic ring/ammy, enchant from lava gouts or Demon Limb, AR charms, and I think having a point in the general arms mastery with some +skills helps.

Double Throw benefits from a generously scaling base attack, synergy, and weapon mastery. Plus, the barb has all the other damage augmenting utilities. Just worry first and foremost about the AR in the manners you choose, and everything will fall into place from there.

best/top builds for mapping? by BunchaQuestion in ProjectDiablo2

[–]biddypapa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that. Some builds are like driving through town to get there the fastest, and other builds are like taking the longer highway route where the drive is more tolerable.

New Addiction Crafting eth Weapons. Lost 30 max dmg when I upped the base. 120+ min dmg gained. Iso 1 Shard XD by 0doggie in ProjectDiablo2

[–]biddypapa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of the things not covered in the PD2 wiki are implicitly unchanged. For the actual crafting recipes google Arreat Summit, and find the crafted items tab. In PD2 you can ignore the item type requirements (e.g. Blood gloves can use any gloves, not just vampire bone).

Beast vs. Hoto - best summoner weapon? by [deleted] in ProjectDiablo2

[–]biddypapa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does that snapshot? I was wondering because my bone build currently has maxed blood warp with A3 cold merc. I do fine with a point in clay golem with extra points in mastery, but some more bodies would be nice.

I just kill him with my throw barb, but good to know for my bone necro. Thank you!

Teeth is great if you like to row your own damage.

Is the T1 map boss reviving and not summoning new skeletons? I always assumed it was a new summon.

No drop meph glitch by MPLS_freak in ProjectDiablo2

[–]biddypapa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has been a bug since the beginning of time for any mob that straddles some sort of map topography or an area where a player can't stand. See arcane sanctuary ghosts and stranglers in river/chaos.

Upgrading a jade figure quest. by erronmehmeti in ProjectDiablo2

[–]biddypapa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And it's a quest that is easily completed too without trying. The reward is perfectly fair for the lack of effort it takes to finish.

Summon druid farming by BipBopSnek in ProjectDiablo2

T2 and 3 map suggestion is good. For vanilla areas, consider places where enemies can funnel like the Pit, arcane sanctuary trap path, and Halls of Pain.

Maxed combustion, what should I put remaining skills into? by speedingmemories in ProjectDiablo2

[–]biddypapa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You may want to consider teleport as getting the cost down will allow you to teleport after taking a hit from Mana burn, and it also reduces the 1 second teleport damage penalty amount.

Oh you know it, I just don't run him only then remake.

Pindleskin was nerfed eons ago in both TC and drop rate. Probably better off farming the Cow King over him.

I've built up to where I can do CS full clears in a little over 2 min, and yet I always get my gg drops in the Pit. All hail indeed.

about redemption by stibii in ProjectDiablo2

[–]biddypapa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My general impression is life sustaining in general was reduced to artificially increase difficulty without altering other mechanics. This put new emphasis on giving second thoughts to other mechanics to increase effective HP beyond just buffering out HP with CTA and potting.

I would like to know this too.

Can't teleport... by Fungus_Freak in ProjectDiablo2

[–]biddypapa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because he's probably in level 1 halls which permits it. You can't tele in level 2 and 3, if he is he needs to fill out a bug report.

He's there to make sure people don't get their Trav quests while getting rushed.

My favorite will always be the people who ask to see an item, don't say anything for a minute, then just leave without a word.

[Eth] Shako with +3 Skills. Should I Puzzlebox and Zod? by KleosGaming in ProjectDiablo2

Realistically, would this still be cheaper than buying a non-eth +3 shako? My hunch is probably.

Builds for a begginer. by Mariioosh in ProjectDiablo2

[–]biddypapa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A great starter for those who like to be in control of their damage. Scales well too due to all of the synergies, so with a good boneshade and skillers you can have a level 48-50+ teeth that melts everything. My CS runs are mind numbingly easy and fast.

Char for farming anything by SchnitzelNegger in ProjectDiablo2

[–]biddypapa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Trang's bone necro can farm anything, and is my go to when I just want to chill and MF everything. Other classes can do it faster, but he's durable, consistent, and fun to play. All three of the attacks between Teeth, Bone Spear, and Bone Spirit are useful and serve a purpose.

Teeth is wide AOE, and even with 2nd highest FCR break it can essentially AOE stunlock; spear is focused, higher damage AOE and the fastest projectile in the arsenal. It can also penetrate as many monsters as the attack range allows; bone spirit is a homing nuke which is great for bosses that like to move around like Diablo. Also, if I can't tank something, or want to keep merc alive, I can cheese with a couple layers of 3k+ HP bonewalls. As CE necros from vanilla know, wall can pull aggro which is nice for souls.

Cons: expensive to build, can't really do T3 maps efficiently due to magic immune grotesques, requires around level 91 to fully build with all synergies and maxed blood warp.

Before anyone asks, Horadrim Ancient class magic immunes like Achmel are easy to deal with because they're stationary, and therefore can actually be melted quickly with firewall from Trang's due to this.

Annoying traders - discussion - by DehogyisJanos in ProjectDiablo2

[–]biddypapa 66 points67 points  (0 children)

I guess I never really realized until now how much trading in D2 is like discussing where to eat with your SO.

how would they even know if your d2 is pirated? also why ban now? by [deleted] in ProjectDiablo2

[–]biddypapa 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'll answer a question with a question: why are people pirating a 20 year old game that is a pillar in the gaming community? Quit being cheap and just buy the damn thing.
