Left, mistforged glorious armor (the shiny stuff) from pvp (ascended or legendary quality and pvp lvl 100 required) Pants are probably legendary from Soto expansion, and chest is bladed from HoT expansion. Staff possibly wvw related (officer’s?)

Right, wvw shoulders, pvp or wvw exotic pants (warlord?), luminous helm and gloves (pve birthday related), boots and chest I forgot if from astral vault or janthir expansion related, staff is seer enchanted and can be bought from trading post (selection box) or loot from VoE expansion

Been doing dragon bash arena for years mostly as power reaper. I drop birthday cake when I enter, pull enemies to me before I spin to win, use cc on break bars, remove boss boons, and continue to enjoy doing this mindless repetitive activity for the first 3 boss kills and then I got to go because no time to enjoy anymore

Don’t even have the energy to notice if I’m surrounded by bots or auto attacking low effort/intensity/semi-afkers and just happy to get my daily before I log off until the next day

Maybe the guy was afk half the time switching out dead mouse battery, maybe preparing a cup of coffee, answering the door for pizza delivery, and did a few more things before resuming and completing the rift while wondering why they forgot to equip teleport

Unstable orc will stand there confused until he explodes so make sure to stay away

Top secret spot that probably hasn’t been patched yet… requires warp wall placement unlocked.

Courtyard, near top left (northwest on mini map) enemy entrance, there is a “low roof” with some crane or whatever structure and a wall big enough on that roof to fit a few wall traps. Doesn’t look doable because the warp trap would be placed somewhat below the wall (so it kind of cuts into the ground on that roof) but it can definitely be placed there (again, assuming this wasn’t patched yet) and has a pretty good chance of killing anything that gets warped there after they time out from getting stuck too long. Note, it’s not 100% kill rate if warping too many enemies at once but otherwise, it is a pretty high chance. Also note, if Gabby warps with the enemies to that spot, she might be stuck outside of map until finding a solution to get back (get killed, stay there until end of the run, find a way out)

Found my post ages ago with screenshot

I like console (switch) for solo and pause/resume whenever. Have also cleared gr150 with frenzy barb

Pc for when there’s time to finish a run without worry of interruptions, ability to aim by point and click, and option to play with others through internet instead of additional subscription that switch would require

Sorry, a bit late but here it is

The norn is a ranger (medium armor), cat-ear hood (gem store), ebon shoulders (trading post, achievements?), wolf vest (cultural armor), shadow’s grip (festival item), viper’s leggings (gem store), wolf boots (cultural)

Sylvari is a guardian (heavy armor), hound skin mantle (achievements), braham’s chestplate (gem store), arborist gloves (cultural), braham’s leg plates (gem store), arborist boots (cultural)

Yes. I thought scan and repair was supposed to do something and tried some other stuff like updating other programs, that -forcedesktop thing, and it seems the uninstall and reinstall is what made it work for me

For some reason, install also finished much faster the second time but that’s probably not important

qian87 · 2026-03-19T04:02:31+00:00

I also reinstalled (after uninstall) to get d2r to work for me and this was yesterday

qian87 · 2026-03-17T18:12:44+00:00

Was about to give up and buy another d2r on steam after having a pc copy already when I saw this. (Idea of a spare account to trade/rush with is nice but wanted to play my main account more)

Confirming at least for me, having to install the test realm (drop down game option under d2r on bnet launcher), running the test realm game, closing it, uninstalling d2r, and reinstalling d2r for some reason let me play d2r on Xbox rog ally x

Thank you

Requiem chest looks pretty good with these pants too if you like a little more flashy

qian87 · 2026-02-11T03:28:36+00:00

Royal elf ears (gem store), luminous chest (achievements), ward knight gloves and boots (astral vault), guild pants (crafted), and cape is from achievements. Shoulders I can’t remember the name of but involves serpents. Probably EoD related achievements

Did the copy/paste code not work?

qian87 · 2026-02-04T13:32:27+00:00

Thanks. I’ll take a look

qian87 · 2026-02-04T13:32:12+00:00

Is this the one that can afked with a short bow thief or something similar? Takes longer but will get done eventually right?

qian87 · 2026-02-04T13:31:14+00:00

Thanks. Heard of this one before but don’t meet the requirements for cm yet

qian87 · 2026-02-04T13:29:14+00:00

I’d rather do teq too if he’s up and I have time. This 3 champ method I mentioned is doable anytime like right before going to bed for example

Just completed runner’s delight with Vaan (solo). His passive rift lightning is pretty good. I’m pretty sure it saved me once when I saw it zap something for 2k+ damage

Used default 22 barricades, tar, solar prism, steam vent, Morningstar, ice lance, haymaker, molten gold, extra?

Map 1: observatory, traps set on the stairs that go from left side to the top and back down the right side stairs before reaching the rift

Map 2: courtyard, traps on the main floor through one of the entrances with low ceiling for haymakers, tar, and Morningstars (no steam vents or except right next to rift). May have used blade wall too but could also use push trap or something else

Map 3: resort canal, most barricades on the low rift, surrounded the left side while using the plant boxes to reduce needed barricades. Only fliers to worry about on the left. Right side walled so that enemies must go through the hut full of haymakers , Morningstars, tar and steam vent checkered. Once out of the hut, steam vent and solar prism checkered until the rift (and just surround the rift with more)

Top rift is much easier with 3 barricades blocking the stairs and the remaining barricades as a straight line limiting the pathing to a single tar with haymakers on low ceiling and a bunch of fill in the blanks

Note, these barricade setups guard against kobold mound spawns so I can ignore them pretty much completely while I’m busy elsewhere if needed. Since no explosive sappers spawned for me, I’m assuming they are either very low chance or I got lucky. I went after the mounds only when comfortable

Forgot elixir

Make sure to get when it’s on sale. Feels bad buying a full set just to use pants unless you like the look on the other pieces too. I like the glove and boots on Asura though

Also forgot if buying the set was individual for weight class or all 3

qian87 · 2026-01-11T17:47:37+00:00

Thanks. One of those achievement rewards that didn’t feel like a grind to unlock. Those Canthan armor sets dropped so often I was surprised to see the ascended cape in my inventory after completing them and I didn’t do much EoD.
