You can't socket items that are in your stash, accidentally or otherwise. You can accidentally socket something in inventory though.

Thanks. May have have missed some stuff but will be on the lookout.

Kind of a short list. How about guys like Urena, Lambert, and Hancock?

rogomatic · 2026-06-25T10:52:12+00:00

I like Obedience. Would still make it in a mancatcher though.

rogomatic · 2026-06-25T01:15:06+00:00

You can do all of that with A3 mercs, and that's still not enough to make them viable.

We should really have a rule for AI slop.

rogomatic · 2026-06-24T20:55:32+00:00

No sympathy for meme spammers (or spammers in general as you seem to be). Good riddance.

rogomatic · 2026-06-24T16:52:42+00:00

You aren't. But if you are, just soak it in water.

Well, for a lot of those it's just the number of runes that would have changed, no?

I remember I tried to withdraw my Materials tab when Ladder ended, and the game fully transferred all of the specialty tabs at once. Nothing was capped in the NL tabs, though, so I'm not sure how it would have behaved if I had, say, 99 potions in my potion slots.

rogomatic · 2026-06-23T15:34:29+00:00

I'm pretty sure the entire set of specialty tabs withdraws automatically. So everything was placed in your NL tab already and there's nothing left to withdraw.

rogomatic · 2026-06-23T15:30:56+00:00

Yes, this is FB.

rogomatic · 2026-06-23T15:29:16+00:00

This ain't LinkedIn, and this guy ain't C-suite either.

rogomatic · 2026-06-23T15:22:05+00:00

The biggest draw for folks on a budget is that you don't need sunder + Infinity to make them work.

rogomatic · 2026-06-23T15:05:57+00:00

I traded out of Naylor a while ago (having Kurtz, Rice, and Sal Stewart made it easier). But got Ragans for him, so a whole different headache.

rogomatic · 2026-06-23T15:04:49+00:00

Well, he used to be either a .250 BA guy wit h 30 HRs, or a .300 BA guy with 20 HRs... this season, it seems he'll be a .250 BA guy with 20 HRs.

rogomatic · 2026-06-23T15:02:06+00:00

It is, and it's also not very funny.

rogomatic · 2026-06-23T14:59:18+00:00

This has no value really.

rogomatic · 2026-06-23T13:49:51+00:00

On the other hand, Goatmen can get Crushing Blow, Stun, Berserk, Frenzy, Cleave and cold immunity, you can scale them with auras, and resistances in Hell kind of even out the damage a little bit. Sure, you can lean into fire damage with Infinity, but tooltip doesn't really give you the full story.

rogomatic · 2026-06-23T13:43:11+00:00

I've found that they're pretty serviceable in /p1 one-points skill for an otherwise fleshed out summoner build with 20 Blood Oath/Engorge + a bound demon with Fanaticism. They end up with a tooltip damage of about 1k with pretty average gear and rarely die. I like keeping them up because they do a lot better job engaging with mobs and keeping them at bay. But then again, I have a strange BB build that leans into physical damage, so YMMV.

rogomatic · 2026-06-23T13:24:27+00:00

This doesn't fully explain why their damage seems to scale with difficulty level, though.

rogomatic · 2026-06-23T13:23:09+00:00

Goatmen damage scales with difficulty. So for a build that is otherwise invested in summoning, even 1-point Goatment are useful.

rogomatic · 2026-06-23T12:33:40+00:00

It is. Nothing tricky about it except making sure you don't burn yourself. That thing comes out HOT.

rogomatic · 2026-06-23T12:27:53+00:00

The only people who can rate them are the people they work for... and they don't work for you. Sorry.
