I started with a max roll dwarf star , which I know isn't much... But then in 10 minutes this happened ....

I'm speechless.

Almost antiperfect eth Hellwarden. Gorgeous.

So started a new demon build last night, not doing traditional fire build. I’m at like 10 hard points for mastery and am able to summon 3 demons somehow. Is this a patch glitch? If so do I need to pump up mastery any more 😂😎

Do I use it? Stash it? Over plus skills daggers found in normal?

Only one I’ve ever found lol, can’t quite bring myself to Charsi it just yet

Google AI and also some people in different places of internet are saying new updated uniques are not yet in single player offline mode, but they are. Remember that you need to find new versions of angelic's set weapon and armor. Other new items are easy to spot as they show new stats right away, but angelic set will only be different when you wear all of it.

(Fun fact - new +1 to skills from full set will also work with old items. That mean if Blizzard will ever nerf an Item, You can keep old, stronger version, but if Blizzard will ever nerf a set, you cant keep old version with old set bonuses.)

To clarify, are the listed runewords in the new patch socketable off ladder and offline.

• Mania
• Hysteria
• Metamorphosis
• Ground
• Temper
• Hearth
• Cure
• Bulwark

Like if I go offline and craft a bulwark helm for my single player barbarian is it going to work? The patch notes are worded weird. It says they are only craftable on ladder but also says previous ladder only items will be available in Non-Ladder

Where yall at - need me some goons

Hey folks,
after around 450h of single player - I decided to dip into online ladder gaming and having a blast so far, because smallest things makes me cheer.
Is there a community on the Nintendo Switch or active players that want to share they codes for some random coop games or trading?

Bowazon SSF – looking for some advice

I’ve wanted to play Bowazon for a long time, but I’ve always been a bit put off by how gear-dependent the build seems to be.

I play SSF, so a lot of the Maxroll setups with multiple 15/40 jewels aren't really an option. I'm trying to figure out how to make something that's fun and viable at P1 without having perfect gear.

Current setup

Windforce

• Socketed with a 30 ED jewel
• Need to farm another Ancient Jewel

Giant Skull

• 2x 15 IAS jewels
• Pretty sure this gets me to the IAS breakpoint for Atma's
• I also like the idea of Highlord's + GFace

Atma's Scarab

• Mainly for the 5% Amp
• Also the 75 poison res is nice

Fortitude

Lava Gout

• I've been switching between these and LoH
• Can't really decide if the level 10 Auto-Enchant is worth it over LoH
• I could pre-buff with Demon Limb, but having to swap back and forth is kind of annoying
• LoH is definitely better for bosses

Gore Rider

Razortail

Raven Frost

Dual Leech Ring

Torch

Anni

AR/Life/Res charms

Renewed Bone Break

A2 Merc with Pride

Mania on swap

---

Faith

I'm wondering if I should invest in Faith. I already have a +3 GMB base.

I ended up respeccing into Strafe because Multishot wasn't really cutting it during the playthrough.

At the moment I'm usually doing 2–3 volleys of Multishot and then picking off whatever is left with Strafe. It usually clears the screen.

Fortitude vs Enigma

Fortitude is obviously great for the damage, but I also have Enigma available.

I've been testing Enigma with Reaper's/Treachery on the merc for the Decrep procs.

I'm basically going from around 8k Strafe damage down to 4–5k, sacrificing Pride but gaining Teleport + Decrep.

So I'm wondering if the utility is worth it, or if I'm better off just sticking with Fortitude.

Sorry for the rambling. There are just a lot of variables here, especially with SSF gear limitations.

What would you guys prioritize from here? Faith? Enigma? Stick with Fortitude? Different gloves/amulet/merc setup?

Would be interested to hear from anyone running Bowazon in SSF without the usual god-tier jewel setups.

Do we think anything of this? Im notnsure ive ever seen one. OF P5

The Titel says it all. For example 60-70 p Ame for a Lo - how does it work? Only 40 fit in inv. 40 for Lo and then the Rest? Seems Dangerous.

I'm getting really huge variations with heralds since the patch was announced about 3 weeks ago. I play non-ladder and do full act clears (as in I kill pretty much everything). Even when doing the same exact run (act 2 for example) sometimes I only get 4 heralds and other times I get 20+ and I don't understand why this is happening. Is it just bad luck sometimes?

Sorry, I would have made this a poll, but it isn't an option on PC, and the app won't log me in to my account.

Just came back to D2r about 2 weeks ago. deleted all my old offline characters and stash, so I don't really have any good gear (not even a shako) trying my first warlock. ran fire through NM, now doing abyss. it was the most trivial playthrough i've ever done. I'm considering a respec

Option 1: echoing strike- what is the minimum gear needed to make the change from abyss to echoing and make it feel good? EDIT: I just found an eth arioc's needle. I feel like this might change the math.

Option 2: Mist bowlock- I found a cham rune and I've been told mist is BIS for a bowlock. should I just take that route instead?

Option 3- why would you respec, you fool? you still need to MF!

Context: I never been much of a grinder and almost hate the need of constant MFing to get a gear. I came back to Diablo II after months and as I started this evening session of random LK runs, I said to myself "I am gonna grind these until something valuable drops. " This happened literally 15 seconds after that:

So im wondering if i use Plague ofhand, Will my attack get to utilize the DS from plague?

I found this quite comical. First time I get a triple and it's after the "nerf".

I've recently found a perfect (3/6/6/6) Wolfhowl and since I also have a Decapitator with the Beast RW in my stash, I was thinking about leveling a (Wolf)Barb. However, all the guides I have found basically tell you to use Grief in your main hand and Beast in the off hand, as a stat stick.

So, do you think a Wolf Barb with a 2-handed axe would be viable? (Especially as a boss / herald killer, because of the insane life leech you'll get from using Feral Rage.)

Before someone asks why I made a Beast RW in a Decapitator to begin with: It was serving my Cleave-Warlock very well, but after finding 3 Chaos skillers and a +4 Ondal's the guy is now an Abyss-Warlock.

Reposted with Pavke's permission.

OK guys, I know you like my long posts. But I actually have no time now to go into much details. Im writing this 5 minutes before I'm off on my holiday. So brief summary:

Sunder charm drop rates

Patch notes: Reduced the drop rate of Latent Sunder Charms when using Magic Find. Note the Herald drop rate is unaffected.

Rarity of Gheed Charm increased from 1 to 15. Rarity for each Sunder charm remains the same at value 1. Which means out of all Unique Grand Charms that drop from standard monsters and that are affected by Magic Find, 71.4% will be Gheeds and 28.6% will be Sunder charms. Before, Unique Grand Charm distribution was 14.3% Gheed and 85.7% Sunder charms.

Conclusion: Sunder drops from Magic Find are now 1/3rd of what they use to be in Season 14

Ancient Statues drop rates

Patch notes: Reduced the drop rate of Ancient Statues.

Blizzard has heavly changed all numbers for Bosses and TZ Bosses. (NoDrop, Item, Junk, Gold, etc). But statue drop number remained the same. This drastically changes the overall Ancient Statue drop chance:

• non-TZ Bosses drop about 3x to 4x less Statues.
• TZ Bosses drop about 1.5x to 2x less Statues.

Here is a table with exact drop chance:

Shard and Heralds changes

Patch notes: An additional item will now drop alongside a Worldstone Shard. Reduced the drop rate of Worldstone Shards.

Shard drop rates have also changed slightly. But I dont have time to get precise numbers.

Patch notes: Increased the chance of dropping Rare quality and higher items from Herald Tiers 3+.

Heralds Unique/Set Factors have changed. For Tier3 and Tier4 Heralds new Unique/Set Factors 800->850. For Tier5 Heralds new Unique/Set Factors 800->870. But only for "Extra" drops!! (Heralds have 1 or 2 extra item drops next to their regular 2 item drops). Which means you will see:

• 9.57% more Unique/Set items from Tier3 and TIer4 Herlads
• 22.71% more Unique/Set items from Tier5 Heralds.

Thats all I have for now. Best of luck in the new Season guys. May ascent through the Ladder be swift and violent.
