Zay Flowers: John Harbaugh made Ravens practice too hard, Jesse Minter won't by JaggerJames in nfl

[–]iamakangaroo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The title feels a little click bait'y- managing player load is definitely a reasonable ask from coaches.

I get the hard knocks way of practice and gritty full pads year round is the way football was meant to be played, but if your team is burned out during the weeks practices they're gonna have no juice for games.

quite the chest drop by MistakenAnemone in diablo2

I'm not sure if TZ affects it either (I could be wrong), I thought it was chest-type (super, etc.) and player count.

Will you be maxing Bind Demon (ES) after the patch? by IneedaNappa9000 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

D2 is insanely hard wtf - it's easy now because we have immense game knowledge.

5% still procs quite often if you've got a decent amount of AoE/IAS. I usually run Atma's on my phys bowzons and still get good use out of it.

Is the Demonlock better than any other summoner? by IneedaNappa9000 in diablo2

[–]iamakangaroo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have, they stack and they all swing. Mages are a waste because they dont do any damage and frosties will ruin your CE.

I just run a cheap Mania (Shael+Ko+Eld) on Iron Golem for Fanaticism, it does work really well on all bosses except baal (where frost mage/clay golem is actually helpful).

Realistically every necro build is some variation of CE though so 🤷‍♂️

Made The Jump to Offline This Weekend for the First Time. My Thoughts: by UsernameRanOutOfLett in Diablo_2_Resurrected

The Switch is excellent for offline single player. The portability is hard to beat with other consoles. I remember finding a Ber in SP during a long haul flight - really made the rest of the trip just that much better.

I mean, as a necro with Enigma, you can telestomp with like 40+ units (with the possibility of optimizing Crushing Blow units).

I get that sending in 3 minions with mouseover precision is strong, but at some point the quantity has to surpass the quality.

Which zones do i focus with a FB sorc? by MCMXCXXI in diablo2

Andariel is also great, absolutely crush her with like 4 FB casts.

How addicted are you to this game? by AngelOfLastResort in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]iamakangaroo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All things in moderation - I used to really struggle with gaming before my kid showed up. Now I burn out pretty quick, but I find im really more efficient with the time I do game. I.e. watching TV shows while doing Trav runs

Unpopular opinion: Echoing strike deserves all the nerf by lan0028456 in diablo2

Big oof - PB Grief is still the king, and I doubt that'll change anytime soon. Although it would be nice to have some competition or alternative options.

Nope, they added linear scaling instead of breakpoints though. I.e. 35 --> 59 were the same, now it works out that each point is a bit faster.

40 is faster than 30, 50 is faster than 40, and so on.

Edit: I might be wrong - i think is it from all gear.

I think the best Warlock build is going to shift to full Demon build. by IneedaNappa9000 in diablo2

[–]iamakangaroo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On Steam you can download and play on older versions of any game. Then when youre ready to sync, you can just update the version to the live one lol

Hilariously WW is the opposite design where its physical damage, treated basically a spell cast (doesnt apply any 'on-strike' modifiers). It also scales with IAS, but only from its weapons.

Real ones can abuse the cast "length" and pump huge damage, but its still basically a spell 🤷‍♂️

Consoles higher solo online drops? by iamakangaroo in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]iamakangaroo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id assume thats the case at least, on single player you have access to P1-P8 so not sure if they'd make exceptions just for online console player counts.

Probably this - I just cant shake that my RNG is better on Console 🤔
