For a double throw barb with Lacerator...Ya just don't by itself. The chance to flee is quite high and for melee, or throwers, it's painful (I've tried) On the other hand, if you make a hydrid warcry/throw/frenzy this becomes one of the most fun characters that I ever played. Warcry to keep things from running, throw, or frenzy to get amp, rinse, repeat. It takes a bit to really make it work, but I had this pocketbarb at 93 or so in lod, and just had tons of fun with it. Gear was a lot of caster gear with specific things for attack rating...like lots of attack rating...you need it. As far as 2.5. Terrorized zones...meh, i guess they are ok. It seems their treasure class does tilt a little to charms (i have not actually looked at the files, this is just from playing, and it makes sense due to only these zones dropping sunder charms). I don't like the notifications 3 times an hour. This needs to be able to be turned off. I do not like sunder charms in the slightest. Ill conceived, totally game altering, not well balanced, and obviously went through zero testing. I won't go into a diatribe about devs still not knowing their game...but well, they don't. | ||

It's not like there are no other overpowered characters, especially with the sunder charms. I know Whirlwind can be OK with very good gear, but I wish they made it OP like blizzard sorc or hammerdin. | ||

i gambled for about ~15 hours over the 2 days and other than a couple "average" 2/20s and some 3os tiaras, i got pretty much nothing really good. i did sell my torch by accident on the first day though, and im 90% sure that i sold a 3os 30%frw tiara too. so for me, the gambling event was not free and it came at a cost. id really like to see this kind of event happen again though. it was probably the most ive been interested in d2 in about half a year. or better yet, just permanently reduce gambling prices by 25-50%. | ||

If they reduce the prices on gambling, the whole cost dynamic changes, thats problematic. | ||

I would rather see crafting be made a little eaier by making it so that you can use any gloves, boots, armor, etc for crafting rather than having to find specific ones. | ||

General * Player reporting has been updated. Gameplay * Fixed an issue where Assassin's Blade Fury skill would stop channeling when the monster initially targeted died. * Fixed an issue where Assassin's Dragon Tail would sometimes not properly inconsistently consume charges. * Fixed an issue where Dragon Tail could cause de-sync and rubber banding issues in both online and offline play. * Fixed an issue where the Act III Mercenary would target Ravens with Enchant. * Fixed an issue where joining a new game as a terror zone rotation began could cause a failure to join the game. * Fixed an issue where a Skill could become unbound while weapon swapping. * Fixed an issue where missiles could desync if a skill was aimed at a target that was standing on top of an item. User Interface and User Experience * Fixed an issue where the tooltip in the character screen for Amazon's Lightning Bolt displayed inaccurate data. * Fixed an issue where the character list would re-sort whenever the game was relaunched. * Fixed an issue where the tooltip for Slow Missiles didn't display accurate information for what effects the next level of the Skill would do. * Fixed an issue where the wasn't an arrow between the Lightning and Chain Lightning Skills in the Skill Tree when using controller. Well, some actual bug fixes this time. Not many, but it's not absolutely nothing like the last 3 seasons. Season 7's "patch" was a change to the Korean age rating lmao. Looks like D2R hasn't joined SCR just yet in complete abandonment. Patch is on August 20th, Season 8 starts on August 23rd at 5:00 PM PDT. | ||

https://news.blizzard.com/en-us/article/24250353/witness-the-diablo-30th-anniversary-spotlight They'll also be announcing the season 13 ladder reset date tomorrow, I'll edit my post if I remember. :D https://news.blizzard.com/en-us/article/24246296/diablo-ii-resurrected-ladder-season-13-coming-soon Season 12 ends February 11th, 2026 and season 13 will begin February 20th, 2026. This is the first time where there's been a gap between a ladder ending and another one starting, normally they happen simultaneously at the same minute. | ||

Why not put it on Steam like D4? Well it seems Blizz might be interested in doing just that as one of the more recent backend updates in D2R have added "steamapi" to some of the client files, so it could happen. Might be something they mention during the event on Feb. 11th, but we'll see.  Best not to get your hopes up with Blizz of course.  | ||

1. I don't need yet another launcher. 2. Blizzard is done for in my eyes. They haven't released a decent game in over a decade now and have been regularly fucking up all of their IPs. | ||

SO NO LORD OF DESTRUCTION BULLSHIT." They are also fixing things. Things old Blizzard hasnt done with Diablo 2 and Starcraft Battle.net. Odd opinion btw. Valve hasnt released a good game in...over 2 decades? What launcher are cool? Isnt every company evil? | ||

I think the point is that steam gives you access to everything pretty much, while blizz launcher gives you access to a small number of games. Essentially any non steam launcher will always be "another launcher" and not THE launcher. | ||
