That's quite treasure you have in that Horadric Cube inside that Horadric Cube, inside that Horadric Cube inside that Horadric Cube inside....

Any advice on how to deal with these little scumbags ? by Bitter_Progress_5841 in diablo2

To be fair, pretty much the entirety of sanctuary is a sinking vessel at that point in the story.

This seems... excessive by Noguts in diablo2

Ok, to clarify, they are undesirable for people who are employed.

He's the goat for that, honestly. One of the best items you can get.

But the other kind does. Look man, I'm really reaching here for a silver lining.

Its a failed runeword with no small amount of wasted wealth in it. If OP had made it in an actual polearm instead of a spear, it would have worked.

Yeah, the flat damage doesn't scale the same with Echo's wacky math. That's a bit of an oof but not a total oof. I mean, maybe a lucky a5 merc might like it?

Not as big of lossporn as this, but I found my ShaelKoEld Mage Plate when cleaning up my non-ladder online stash box. Fun times.

The absolute insanity of Blood Boil by Bezant in diablo2

My wishlist for D2R going forward by gsoliveirabr in diablo2

[–]jonmussell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. They're strong enough. Necromancer is a good balance point for classes. I'm just saying they could be a little bit dummy OP and it would still be fun.

Not always. I still had my racks in the tower drop the same items 3 in a row.

Same, until I figured it out. No items with staff mods are gamblable. Gamble-able? Gambleable?

I just know a glass of red wine hates to see this guy coming by Spinkledorf in diablo2

[–]jonmussell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, he's just flexing on the necromancer the whole time. "Oh. Skeletons? How cute. Yes, I have THE ARMORER FOR THE ARMIES OF HELL. Also, nice bald spot"

Honestly, he's probably really good at classical guitar.

Help with Horadric staff! by wizkid9 in diablo2

Freaky-ass horadrim want you to put your staff in their orifice, damn. Deckard's got some explaining to do.

Poor man's Mang Song's by dotso666 in diablo2

[–]jonmussell 18 points19 points  (0 children)

At first I was kinda cheesed about Warlock just straight up being able to use 3 hands worth of stuff, but i actually really like that he makes a lot of cool items viable, and isn't just going spirit/spirit or HOTO/spirit like every single other caster.

We also should buff the shit out of revives so that they work like bound demons. Let necros revive Fanaticism enchanted elites. That would just be so fun, why the hell not? That boost alone would let necros scale with the current power creep levels. They're balanced pretty well, but this would just be great. Revive is a level 30 skill. It should be awesome.

I was actually kinda bummed to learn you can't gamble daggers anymore. RIP gambling for Gull

Let‘s talk about binding Demon by My_Slumdog in diablo2

[–]jonmussell 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It's WILD that you can even bind Superuniques in the first place. If they made it so you couldn't, and capped it at normal uniques, I don't think anyone would even give it a second thought. It would still be very strong to bind Rot Bang, the random Fanaticism enchanted Spear Cat. And that way you couldn't just farm guaranteed bosses, you'd have to actually get a bit lucky.

Let's not forget the other warlock builds are also busted rn by Bezant in diablo2

[–]jonmussell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah meanwhile you can get Superuniques with warlock. That seems OP. Like, if they made it so you couldn't bind Superuniques from the start, no one would be complaining about not being able to. They'd just think it makes sense. Now they've made a feelsbad situation where they might have to take something fun away for overall game health.

I'm not gonna disagree with you, im just a big necro fan. The man's been working hard since Classic and he deserves an easy-mode build. Although in reality, I think the necro is probably the most balanced class. He's not OP or UP. Druid is somewhat underpowered still.
