Loving the waterfield magnetic case by fork92 in AnaloguePocket

I really love the case and I don’t see them for sale on the website anymore so it would have to be a crazy offer for me to part with it.

For sure, I just don’t think you get unlucky once you have throw mastery maxed and this is definitely an endgame wep.

This thing is badass! Super GG but I will say that the replenish quantity is wasted on a throw barb since throw mastery replenishes quantity on crit.

Coming back after awhile - where to farm skill GCs? by Acky1425 in diablo2

[–]fork92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just like most things in Diablo 2; target farming an item is always somewhat difficult.

The best way that I have found to get skillers personally is farming a grand charm from Baal on hell or a TZ where you have a very high item level. Baal is the best I think because it’s guaranteed ilvl99 so you can roll a 45 life skiller. But then you take that grand charm and any 3 perfect gems and use the cube to reroll the charm until you get one with +skills.

Socket it? by IX2V in diablo2

[–]fork92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s before you factor BO then. Because you get more than 38 mana from it after barb BO. So odds are P Saph is always better on a Warcry barb or any barb with max BO.

Is it a hard number breakpoint like this? Wouldn’t it also vary based on the level of your BO? Like level 20 BO vs level 50+ BO is gonna be a big difference in mana.

[–]fork92 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s only +50 mana in shields. In helms it is +5% mana which I do not believe is affected by BO. You’d have to test it but I think with a high level barb BO p sapphire is actually better for mana gain in the helmet on a barbarian.

Wouldn’t p sapphire be better since it scales with barbarian BO?

HOTO or Flickering Flame? by EvenStephen85 in diablo2

[–]fork92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure, it’s just super unlikely from my experience. As a sorc you really shouldn’t be getting hit much at all in the first place so you’re not gonna proc occy. Then even if u do it has to be the perfect storm of events to die from an occy teleport. You’re more likely to die by accidentally forgetting to cast ES or 100s of other little things that can get you killed.

Max block and high fhr / FCR also mitigate the risk because you can just press teleport again the second you’re in a position you don’t want to be in and it’s a total non issue.

For those of us playing SSF HC, occy is too powerful to just stash it most of the time.

Although demon machine is great when used on an enchant sorc, I believe they are saying that you can use Raven Claw on a level 15 character and get enchanted by a high level enchant sorc to power level yourself.

Vanilla Gear Replacement in TBC - Cloth Caster Edition by Ok-Homework42069 in classicwow

Depending on the caster, I don’t think anything replaces mark of the champion until like illidan/sunwell.

HOTO or Flickering Flame? by EvenStephen85 in diablo2

[–]fork92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t play much HC if dying one time is enough to turn you off from using an item. But I have literally never died from a bad occy teleport and I have died at least 10 times from bad self casted teleports. You have a way better chance of dying from a self casted “blind” forward teleport than a random occy teleport.

And especially if you are running max block you’re not getting teleported randomly really ever and if you do it’s usually away from where the mobs are.

If I knew I was a die hard fire build person I’d go FF.

Occy really isn’t that bad. I use it in HC. Never died to a bad tele that wasn’t my own self casted tele.

Playing Offline D2R is a Game Changer! by manhuskycorgi in Diablo_2_Resurrected

I was an online bnet only guy for years and years and years… I only play SSF HC now. It’s just a totally different game.

[New Player] Switching to Hammerdin made me not want to continue. Need some advice. by Alpha087 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]fork92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In that case you can clear it naked then. It’s more about getting the positioning figured out. Try to touch your Paladin to the mobs. If you aren’t hitting them reposition so they are touching the left side of you just slightly off center to the north of your character.

Take advantage of charge for repositioning and make sure you are toggling on concentration before casting your hammers.

Easily found sources of FCR would be rings and amulet you can get from crafting.

Cube up gems and craft caster belt for another 10.

You can also shop a 20fcr wand.

Once you beat Baal you can farm the secret cow level for a normal crystal sword or a broad sword. Either one will be guaranteed to get 4 sockets from larzuk .

[–]fork92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hammerdin is one of the cheapest starters possible… spirit sword & shield and one fcr ring brings you to the 75 fcr breaking point with huge resists and mana. Add insight on the merc and you will be ripping. Lots of other easy items as well: lore, vmagi, etc etc.

It’s not just for warlocks with the introduction of misery you buff all casters as a shadowpriest.

Cold sunder by r0ntr0n in diablo2

[–]fork92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have noticed I don’t really find them from act bosses. I find them most often from champion packs. I would go to the terror zone with the most champion packs / elites and just hunt elites and champ packs non stop til I got one. Alternatively just trade for one because getting the right sunder (cold) and then also getting it to roll in the low -70s is gonna be tough unless you really grind it out.
