so, ive decided to start playing d2 again with my cousin since ive got a few months of absolutely nothing to waste

my cousin has decided to play a hammerdin because they are possibly the most badass class ever invented, and ive picked out a necro summoner because im lazy and i like the idea of having a bunch of friends to protect me and take punches for me lol . i know summonmancers can solo hell bare-assed but i like feeling good and 'uber', and my cousin found a decent torch so im gonna start out on a necromancer.

i havent played d2 in a while, not since the new patch, does anyone have any advice for me? in particular, what to mf/where to mf? should i try to sell key sets? im a poor man so any decent gear suggestions for me until i work up enough for the rich man;s stuff? im hoping to scratch up enough for a low enigma, and then just mf all the usual spots.

anyone have any suggestions / past experiences they want to share? oh, i play ladder/softcore on USWest (yes i know im a pussy, thats why im a summoner ) with the account name TribalTech, so if anyone wants to add me and game with me some time id appreciate it alot since its only me and the fams playin so far

on an unrelated note, ive tuned my guitar back to EADGBE for the first time in a long time! (i normally play in EADGCF, all perfect fourths)

yeah acrylic nails

dont worry they dont look girly and you cannot notice them at all unless you look at them from front-on because they are very thick. i didnt really want to get tips before, but after a while i think it might be more effective

no i dont record anything, whenever i think up a nice sounding lick or progression or something i scribe it down and improvise around it, see if i can come up with something cool. i dont play in a band or anything, sometimes i get together with a few mates and we play off eachother and share some stuff weve found out or whatever. i dont have any intention to play live, id rather just get together with a mates in my house or something and just jam

hbu?
