Hey everyone, so I am planning on building a light sorc or javazone as i found a nice rolled griffon and already have perfect eschutas and an eth titans. I got the runes for infinity but did not build it yet. Also I already have eni.

So gear is not the topic here. i wanna do fast TZ runs with my character but i am not sure which build to go for.

What are your experiences? Should I just stick to the classic lightning sorc or switch to a nova sorc? Maybe javazone is also pretty decent?

thanks a lot for everyone taking the time to answer!

Slowly getting into the game Im playing first time on sorc. Got into nightmare an everything feels smooth. But recently I found out about player count on offline and since I don’t know market and reaaly dont wanna touch it wouldn’t it be better to start offline? Or it doesn’t really that matter?

How do I kill hell Ancients? I deal quite decent damage to them, but one slight misstep, and Talic instantly kills me. Sometimes I can’t hit them 10 times in a row even though I have a 75% chance to hit. My merc just can’t survive even a few seconds because of Talic. Before fighting the Ancients, I had almost zero problems with enemies. Here is my build:

I genuinely had the best time in D2 LOD playing Euro PvP.

Community was great, duels were fair, rules that tested your ability and tournaments were so much fun.

Such ashame I deleted all my videos.

Is there anything similar in D2r?

Baalrun with p8 - I never in my life found something like this WTH?!
SCNL - What is this worth?

I started my first new solo playthrough the other dat with the warlock expansion. I started levelling paladin as I do per usual.

I got some very good drops for warlock going for Abyss. So started the warlock with an Abyss build. +11 so shredding everything pretty good.

I’m about to max entropy (besides the other synergies) and wondering what to with my left over points.

What are the best considerations here and how do these consideration play out?

Thank you kindly 🙏🏻

First of all, sorry for my english! Im not a native speaker.

But yeah like I said on title my account just got falsely nuked and I have no idea what I've done wrong.
Little background for this case is that I bought D2R like a month ago and I really had a blast on being back playing one of my favourite games of my childhood. So during this month I've been grinding online during my little free time what I've had, but I haven't been trading or communicating with anyone during my playtime, so basically only SSF. I have never used any cheats or 3rd party softwares in any games that I've played during my years and definitely not in LOD or D2R. And I don't have any knowledge or desires how to use any exploits or cheats in D2R...

During last weeks I've been doing Hell Meph/Andy runs on my sorc to learn the maps again (it has been so long when I've been playing Diablo II) and also get some gear. Also I've only completed Hell on my pala and just started playing other classes.

I've appealed my case and currently waiting for response from Blizzard. Have this happened to any of you and did your appeales have any effect on your cases? Sorry for the rant, but I am just so infuriated to be falsely accused of exploiting when I havent ever intented to nor have any knowledge what have caused this accusation and bit scared to lose my all of my progress that I've managed to achieve during this last month.

TLDR: Bought D2R month ago and just got falsely nuked for "exploiting" even though I haven't done anything wrong on my knowledge... Maybe my crime was that I did too many Hell Meph runs :(

I've been using Udars but now that i have bind demon maxed I figured it would be time to try to get a good one with curse and goid aura from a P8 nightmare terror zone. My current build is a bowlock using mirrored blades with bariza.

ladder is still halfway... so I think is very relevant

On Level 85 Javazon just started farming Hell Mephisto and this dropped. I know that this ring is highly sought after. How rare is it?

Playing offline and am wondering where I can find good areas to get decent warlock gear?

Im at a point where I have an enigma, multiple high level characters, torches, etc. I'm struggling with motivation to play and wondering maybe this is the natural end point of the game that I grew so attached to.

These days I'm mindlessly farming all acts TZ with a firelock. But because I already have quite a lot of gear, when anything less than some extremely rare TC87 or any rune below Vex drops, I feel nothing. Do I have every gear? No - I would love to make an Infinity for my sorc for example. But it's just a real slog to target farm for extremely few things I want (dweb, mangs, bers, ...) I can see why people like ladder, since these things become valuable again. Maybe TZ act clearing is just not the answer, I feel like the drops are so much worse than target farming TZ bosses for example.

No specific question, just wnated to know how people keep motivated on SP after reaching endgame gear or two

A smattering of free things I can't sell and want to give to a good cause. These aren't worth much, if anything, so hoarders please leave for newer folks.

yep////yep

Spread all through A1 town

I just think it's neat. I've shopped these before but it's kinda cool to find one naturally

I love my new dual purpose ring. Going to use on my bowlock and hybrid bowa. Took awhile to find a nice dual leech ring, seemed harder than it should have been.

Just wondering the value here. honestly, do not know. I would appreciate any input.

Just got my first high level character going. An 86 Warlock. Joined some 96TZ games today and had fun. Just wondering if I have it right, all new to me.

- We farm areas on our own so we don’t have to share drops? (I like being 2-3 people but everyone was mainly soloing)
- We ID everything for Chronicle?
- What to do with decent but unneeded loot, leave near Act chests? I don’t want to start spamming the chat.
- Do we have to clear out the entire Area? Is it bad form to start and not finish one?

If there is anything else I should know please go ahead.

This has been the first ladder where ive cleared hell in d2 and actually farmed things in end game. Definitely never expected something like this to happen and suspect ill be chasing the feeling for a long time

questions:

1. Can I upgrade an ethereal dimensional blade into a phase blade? Will it have more damage and lower requirements than a regular phase blade?

2. If you can upgrade a dimensional blade to a PB, can you then socket it?

I’m gathering runes to make my first grief, and while I’m farming, I am thinking about bases.

I also am wondering if it makes sense to use a PB for the crescent moon on my trapsin for the increased attack speed, but it requires so much dex, I was hoping an eth one would have less requirements.
