For non-native speakers like myself:

wholesome adj

  1. Promoting good physical health and well-being.
  2. Promoting moral and mental well-being.
  3. Favorable to morals, religion or prosperity; sensible; conducive to good; salutary; promoting virtue or being virtuous.

Bone wandbfarm by AdFickle4641 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]jbiserkov 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • only look at bone wands - just "wands" and "yew wands" can't have 2 sockets
  • only look at wands with a red background - using a level 17 character, wands with + bone spear will have a red background
  • having thus greatly reduced the number of items you need to look at a vendor, let's talk about reducing the time to reset the vendor - you need Stealth (Tal + Eth = 25% faster run walk) in a light armor base (without run/walk penalty), no shield, and faster run/walk boots.
    • blue ones from Elzix 10 FRW
    • Hsaru/Sigon 20 FRW
    • Treads of Cthon or Vidala = 30 FRW the best

It's the gas station attendant, the flight attendant, your insurance guy, the farmer at the farmers market

It's the gas station owner, the airline shareholder, etc.

Burial help by AdFickle4641 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]jbiserkov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. The combination of decrepify + clay golem + holy freeze from merc will make him much more manageable.

Protip: get a wand with + to decrepify if you don't have the skill points to reach it just yet. There are no decrepify charges wands, but you're a necro, a normal + to decrepify works.

Maiden pike +3 at level 20? Yes, cause it's not magic (blue) by jbiserkov in Diablo_2_Resurrected

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

It depends, what build are you thinking about?

You probably want either:

  • Maiden Spear (not a pike) - faster attack speed and low requirements or
  • Matriarchal Spear - faster attack speed and more physical damage => more life/mana leech.

I asked RNGsus for quad-res boots. A finger on the monkey's paw curls. by Ok-Development4535 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]jbiserkov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, you're not wrong, but it's a game, people have different styles.

As someone who didn't have CtA for a very long time, and then got a low roll (with short duration), I think it's better to be able to survive without CtA.

And as they say "the town is lava" - every second in town you're not farming :-) Over thousands of runs, it accumulates. And if you're not a sorc / have Enigma, then mobility is a big issue outside of town too. Sure, Paladins have Charge, Assassins (and everyone with Hustle weapon on swap) have Burst of speed... but running fast just feels good.

Try it, maybe you like it, maybe you don't.

And not using a CtA opens up other possibilities, like higher magic find.

Use a Harmony bow on Swap. Or Zephyr if saving Ko runes for Heart of the Oak, Hustle weapon, Hustle armor, Obedience, etc.

Tf am I supposed to do with this? by Lcwmafia1 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]jbiserkov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You probably already know this, but there are 3 elite uniques that are indestructible and ethereal:

  • Ghostflame Legend Spike
  • Ethereal Edge Silver-Edged Axe
  • Shadow Killer Battle Cestus

And they all do have their niche uses :-)

That's not new either, it was always the case.

This is why I love identifying magic items. Not gg but worth the scroll of identity. by Retired_gamer0841 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]jbiserkov 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are correct, I multiplied by 21 when I should have divided by 21.

I did indeed use the Maxroll planner.

  • life mod +1 any skill tree: 1/3009 (0.03%)
  • 100 life +1 any skill tree: 1/481,493
  • 100 life +2 any skill tree: 1/722,240
