He got surrounded by those big mofo guys that baal summons and I was unable to get out.Does anyone else play hardcore? and If so whats your highest level character and share with me your crushing stories of character death (So I might feel a little better). | ||

Friend went summoner, myself trapper.. very easy. Mostly went around on players 8. Friend died in one hit to a boss pack gloam getting aura'd from another boss in anya's cellar? i cant remember the damn name right now. Oh, in hell that is. Haven't really played since because it was just for fun on LAN, trapper is still alive at around level 84 halfway through hell act 5. | ||

if you play on lan u can make back up's of your characters : copy on another location the file <name> .d2s then when your character dies you restore the last backup (you should make backups in game (alt-tab to do that) every 20-30 minutes or so besides u can make a 36lvl char in 4-5 days at most  gl agiaegaergeargaeg | ||

I have many hardcore character, some have died - if you play nighmare/hell difficulty lag may often be the reason, or fucking stygian dolls. Highest character survived 66 hardcore assasin, hell difficulty act 1(half quests completed)... however my disk fucked so I've lost it  .My friend had a nice hardcore death - on normal difficulty in act 4, fighting diablo. When diablo used the bone prison to trap him and purple lightning to finnish him. He would have probably survived if he didn't panic and break the prison in the first place. | ||

The bigger the risk the more fun you have. And the higher level and better items you get, the more valuable ure hardcore character is to you, therefore increasing the risk. We play on Lan with each other only, because it elimates the chance of a lag death. Because dieing with a hardcore character is sad. But dieing because of a lag spike, well thats a lot more painful | ||

Go to the single-player forum. They regularly start up new HC "tourneys" with special conditions (like only using white items, or only 1 skill, or no skills at all, etc) that continually breath new life into the game for me. I hate D2 on bnet, but single player is okay, and the HC tourneys are pretty entertaining. diabloiinet is pretty strict about abusing editors, bots, etc, so if you decide to join the community, stear clear of those third-party programs. Or if you must use those programs, at least avoid the trade forums. | ||

My highest level hc character (in single player) was necromancer (skellies ftw!), he was level 64 and died in some very very stupid way (I think it was because I didn't pay enough attention for a moment). The hardest things that I remember there was beating Diablo on normal, damn this dude kicked so much ass, all of my skellies and my merc died so fast... I remember that I had to kill him for like 1-2 hours. That was what I feared at nightmare too but then he proved to be a sissy. I was sure that my hc char will die on nightmare diablo as I still remembered how much trouble I had with him on normal but he died before I even noticed  Managed to kill maybe 2 of my skellies.btw. If anyone would like to make summoner necro there's 2 things you need: merc with thorns aura and 2 curses - life tap (your skellies last much longer) and decrepify (works nice vs bosses). | ||

Level 36 is way way too low to try Baal on Hardcore. You should have like a +10-20 level buffer over what's normally considered "safe" before you progress. Level 36 isn't too much to get worked up over, you can hit that in like 1-2 days =) | ||

My highest was a lvl 65 druid but i had a couple of 40s and high 30s which are obviously harder to get then on battle.net because u dont get rushed most of time, monsters are 10x harder and u really cant beat most quest alone. I was probably the best D2 player to ever play it with an average of 17 FPS. | ||

this was almost identical build to my normal char, so i got bored with leveling him once the diminishing xp kicked in. besides, he can't do baal runs, and i remember well how boring it got to level my other necro with diablo runs. | ||

EvilTeletubby
Baltimore, USA22258 Posts
PostPosted: Mon Dec 16, 2002 11:13 pm *sigh* I hoped I wouldn't have to post in this thread, but alas, here I am. UndeadTeletubby met his untimely demise today on the snowy peak of MountArreat. Name: UndeadTeletubby Class: Necromancer Level: 75 Cause of Death: Incredibly old crappy computer. Yesterday, UndeadTeletubby began Hell Difficulty with his two comrades-in-arms, Merrlynne the clumsy, "watch-me-teleport-into-a-mob-like-a-tard" Sorceress and Dr.Ruth_HC, a PMSey yet well talented Amazon warrior. They had a marathon questing session, and starting with no WPs at all, or any outside help, managed to make their way through the temperate western lands, dry arid desert, and the steamy jungles, calling it a night after Mephisto had been slain. Today, the adventurers set their sites on the youngest of the three brothers, and made their way through the firey pits of Hell, eventually taking him down with surprising ease (although the great beast seemed to have his sights set on Merrlynne, her friends quickly finished the demon off). Ahh, the frigid, snow covered lands of Harrogath. UndeadTeletubby had his sights set on Baal, as it would give him the title of a noble Guardian. He could feel it, he could taste it. Onward the trio marched (or teleported), laying waste to that evil Shenk, freeing some captured Barbarians, and saving a young woman trapped in ice. Before they knew it, they were in the Ancient's Way. UndeadTeletubby could feel his growing excitement over the upcoming battle, yet felt confident they'd win over the praise of the great Ancient warriors who guarded the Worldstone of Sanctuary. After locating the waypoint, they made their way up to the Summit, ready to test fate. With a full compliment of Revived troops, Mercenaries, Golem, and even a glowing Valkyrie, they were ready. Hydras and Decoys were set up, and minions surrounded the three. UndeadTeletubby, being the brave yet perhaps foolish person he was, opted to be the one to bring the ancients to life. Thus was his fatal mistake. For, after hitting the altar, UndeadTeletubby's world froze around him for about 10 seconds. Apparently, that was all the time it took. Once the world continued to move again, UndeadTeletubby lay slain by the hands of Korlic. Or so they say, for his world was frozen so long that the "xxx was slain by xxx" message had time to show up and go away before his computer unfroze. The only message that could be read, "Your deeds of valor will not be forgotten". Fortunately, UndeadTeletubby's companions were able to loot his slashed and mangled remains for the gear it possesed. Perhaps a new Necromancer will spring forth to free the world of Sanctuary from the evil that holds sway. Only time will tell. Just a special thanks to Kimmie and Nausea, I had a great time (until the death of course), and would've never made it that far without either of you. :-) | ||

1) a trustworthy isp (you lag in an uncomfortable place , you die) 2) a group of friends to help each other 3) 80% of your stat points on vitality and any streght charms you can get 4) having a sorc to do meph runs hell (this requires faster cast rate at max , i use to have a level 82 sorc (stasis + frozen orb) who would do meph hell runs in 1-3 minutes at most (without maphack)) Hardcore is indeed the most challenging thing on diablo , but is also very unpredictable due to the lag/disc factor which can often kill you. The easiest char you can play hardcore is a summoning necro , since all those skeletons will tank for you everything and it requires 2 much bad luck for you to die. my highest was a level 94 pindle runner assasin which died , and a level 99 barbarian with 8k health and 4k armor which would solo cowlevel easily. | ||

In the duped world of expansion it's not remotely difficult to stay alive for the purposes of PvM anymore. My hammerdin had something like 4k life, 74% block, 15k armor. Enigma, hoto, upped HoZ, 8 GCs with +40 life, with like lvl 50 holy shield...PvM is a joke with these duped runes. I really hate how boring it is now in D2 due to the rune dupes. The most fun nowadays is basically playing HCCL and dueling around lvl 70. Check channel "olo" on West for basically the only community around but they've almost all moved to East nowadays I think (it's been awhile since I last played). | ||

I personally think the game is better as a singleplayer experience, and yeah it can be played that way. There are many guides to different D2 builds, diabloii.net is a great resource for that stuff. If you're going to play singleplayer I strongly suggest downloading ATMA-- a muling program-- you can find a link to it on diabloii.net. It's technically a character editor, but the vast majority of D2 players don't consider it a cheat because all it does is speed up the muling process. As for best hero? I dunno. One of the stronger non-twinked characters is the sorceress, which makes them good as a first character to magic find so you can twink future characters. I prefer Blizzard sorc, Meteorb, and CL/FO sorc builds, but you can be successful with a lot of stuff (maxed static field can be a fun experiment). Other strong non-twinked characters: Hammerdin; Lightning Trapsin; Fury Javazon; and Fishymancer. Fishymancer (also known as Skelliemancer) is practically unkillable, and is easily the safest build in the game... but it's a little slow. A properly equipped and skillfully used Hammerdin is the most powerful character in the game, but prone to stupid deaths and Blessed Hammer is kinda funky to use in tight spaces. Fury Javazons destroy rooms of monsters like nobody's business, but struggles a little vs bosses. Lightning Trapsin can have mana problems and the occasional lightning immune will slow you down. Every sorc build that isn't tri-elemental (most of them) will have some problems with immunes in hell difficulty. If you don't care about magic find for twinking purposes, just play whatever attracts you. My first character ever was a poorly constructed Fanazealot that liked to die during zeal-locks, and it was fun enough without any decent equipment or carefully planned stat/skill placement. You can find guides to all the builds I mentioned on diabloii.net. Have fun! | ||

What skill trees,warcries ,combat masteries and skills I should develope. The same goes to for the other stuff : strength,dexterity etc... should I put points to? Also why when I save and quit I start again at the starting base? I know these questions sound like "How to build barracs" for SC, but I know that in games such like Diablo its very important to develope your hero properly . | ||

Blizzard sorc is a sorceress that specializes in the blizzard spell and its synergies. Meteorb is a sorceress that uses the spells Fireball, Meteor and Frozen Orb. CL/FO sorc is a sorceress that uses the spells Lightning, Chainlightning and Frozen Orb. Hammerdin is a Paladin that specializes in using Blessed Hammer and its synergies along with the Concentration aura to kill foes. Blessed Hammer is classified as "magic" damage (as opposed to elemental or physical or poison damage) and as a result, only monsters that are immune to magic damage can resist it. Blessed Hammer also ignores the immunities of any undead or demon class monster. As a result, there's only 1-2 very very rare types of monsters that can resist Blessed Hammer. IMBA ;p Lightning Trapsin is an assassin that specializes in Lightning Sentry, and Death Sentry to kill foes. Fury Javazon is an Amazon that specializes in the Javalin skill tree and uses the Lightning Fury skill as it's main attack. Fishymancer is a Necromancer that uses an army of skeleton minions (Raise Skeleton + Skeleton mastery) along with the 1 point wonder curse Amplify Damage and a Might aura merc to kill foes, it uses the skill Corpse Explosion to to speed up killing. Decrepify and Clay golem (both 1 point wonders) are used to battle bosses. Fanazealot is a Paladin that uses Zeal as it's main attack and combines that with the Fanatacism aura. It's a melee character that attacks very fast. Zeal-lock has been patched, but in the old days if you had many points in Zeal you could attack 20ish times in a row, and you'd continue to attack even if there were no monsters in range, leaving you exposed to ranged attackers that could kill you while you were locked in place. Some monsters, especially in Hell difficulty, are immune to certain attack types. There are physical immunes, and immunities to each of the element types. In Hell difficulty, it isn't uncommon to run accross foes with more than one immunity. Twinking is a term used to describe the act of transfering items earned by one character to a new character that can use the items to its advantage. A 1 point wonder is a skill that is very front loaded as far as it's usefulness goes. Generally, spending more points in these skills only affect the radius of the area of effect or the duration/life/or mana cost of the spell. Some examples of 1 point wonders are: static field, most of the necromancer golems, Corpse Explosion, Shadow Warrior, Shadow Master, Teleport, Double Swing, Fade, Mind Blast, and most of the necromancer curses. The reason you start in the starting base after you save and quit is because that's how the game works. Don't fret over it, killing monsters again is a good thing (more chances to get good items). Barbarians are a pretty item-dependant class, which is why I didn't mention any barb builds when I was talking about non-twinked characters. I think Frenzy Barbs are pretty fun so I'll share that build with you. Follow this link. General stat placement rules for D2: Strength: enough to wear your gear. Dexterity: enough to wear your gear unless you use a shield, then enough to get 75% blocking (how much you'll need for this depends on your level and your shield). Vitality: Everything else. Energy: Base. Don't ever spend anything here. | ||

As long as you keep dumping all your points into vitality you should be fine. Whenever I started up a new diablo account I would always use a trapasin as my MF'er, and I did fine even in hell with crappy gear. Don't worry too much about hell - fade is good but also use cloak of shadows, its really useful considering you just want to stand back and let your traps do the work. Max resist on a trapasin isnt as crucial as a lot of the other classes because you really don't expect to get hit at all as long as you're careful. | ||

You can also just copy a character from someone else into your save folder. And to the trapsin guy, you dont need any resists in hell if you dont get hit or barely ever. Trappers will have 1200+ hit points (without BO) since they can dump all their points into vit once they have the claw requirements for runic talons or the exceptionnal version. The thing that will stop you from getting further in hell diff is poor damage, you will need a ton of skillups with synnergies (sadly you wasted points into fade) and a beefy merc. I'd copy paste my level 91 HC trapper gear setup but she DIED, joining the ranks of R.I.P. guardians along with my 94 furyzon, 88 fishymancer T_T Basicly you want to run with 2 double claw setups 1 for prebuff on fade/bos/you name it (+shadow skills/+fade) and your main setup would be ideally +3traps/+3 Lightning sentry +3 fireblast but just a double +3 traps setup is already pretty good. The forums that were linked diabloiii.net is a great source for info, there's also a german calculator (for skillpoints and synnergies) but I dont have the link handy atm. | ||

We were in baals room on the way to the minions when we ran into a pack of those stygian dolls, the ones who explode when they die. I dropped a meteor on them, killing about 10 or so. Unfortunately another sorc was standing about 5 feet away and was instantly killed from the blast. Goddamn dolls...Those and the stupid clouds that shoot out that lightning have killed more hc characters than I care to remember. You're talking about gloams, and yea they are indeed scary. Tomb vipers (In nilhatak's temple) are a major pain in the ass too, for mercs anyway. | ||

my advice is to get as much resistance as possible. lower resist/conviction really really takes your resist down. i'd also suggest max block with stormshield as that gives 35% damage reduction (huge!) pump the majority of your stats to vitality, the rest should be dexterity, again for max block and a few sparingly to strength as stormshield requires 156 strength i believe. | ||

I also need a torch .I found 3 HR's last season (if I remember correctly), and I've found 2 so far this season. | ||

I deffinately missed the vanilla diablo2 though. I thought the "rare" items being the best in the game was awesome. The random chance of getting a godly item. You would see a rare lance drop and it could be total shit or godly. I remember my 298% sword 1 killing anyone w/ one whirlwind and blocking 75% w/ minimum in dex lol.. pure sta with str boot rares. Oh the good old days before "uniques" which are far from unique became good and ruined it. | ||

Played a freezing orb/fire wall sorc (or something like that, it's been a long time) up into the 70s. I Was in act 3 when I got a lag spike and was torn down by a pack of those jungle midgets. I didn't yell or break anything. I felt the blood rush out of my face and just stood at the screen for at least a good five minutes in silence. It's one of those handful of moments in my gaming life that I'll probably never forget. In the end I'm glad to have had the experience. | ||

I personally made like 10 chars and geared them up in single player trading only items with my friend who I played with over hamachi occasionally. We did it all, hammeradin, shockadin, minion-less werewolf, summoner, bonemancer etc ... we even tried the dentist - lol. If you think you did it all and are still hungry for more you can try Median XL mod (just google it), it changes all the characters a lot, and the outside world too, bringing in special challenges for items in a few instanced zones. It is actually very hard, and it might take some time getting used to new skills and mechanics. I strongly advise you to read the pdf the game comes along with if you decide playing it. | ||

Sadly I probably won't ever be able to play again. Edit: I also had some LEET items. Classic's much more fun simply for the fact that some items are once in a lifetime irreplaceable. T_T Still never found a single soj though, after hundreds and hundreds of nm andy and meph runs. | ||

Also, I find the entire item trading and MFing business entirely unattractive, but then the game that gets played on the Ladder is a completely different game than just playing through it from Act I normal to Act V Hell. That's why I play mostly Single Player. A pity Gloams are such a pain for an untwinked Sorceress tough. Thank heavens I got lucky enough to find a Wizard spike and Shaftstop (those resists from spike andthat 30% DR from shaft saved my life from nasties like stygian dolls more than once), or I'd have been in a far bigger world of hurt. (She isn't HC, btw, but dying still sucks) | ||

I knew a guy who played D2 like he played nethack. Play from scratch, and when you die, start the next character. Soloed (although in multiplayer games), no leeching. You mourn each character when it dies and ponder the meaning of life when you actually earn your progress. | ||

Lost a very well equipped kicksin around lv 60 in flayer jungle because of surround on hell difficulty. Lost another soso (ice) around lv 65 to doom beetles in the maggot nest on hell difficulty. The pain is huuuuge, but also, those 4 characters are my proudest moments in my D2 career. Once you go HC you'll never go back to SC. | ||

I did manage to lose my level 96 sorceress this ladder season to a double pack of soul/gloam bosses with conviction though. It was a combination of bad preparation in terms of my equipment and lack of reflexes. | ||

Back in the good ole days you could make quite a killing off of D2 things before the massive duping came in. Actually Blizzard games have a weird tendency to do that. I'm not ashamed to say that I paid my car off by selling excess gold in WoW because I was so good at playing the auction house. If people are willing to pay....lol | ||

wtf ? are u serious? 4500 for a d2 character?? My old college roomate and I pulled in over 80k off diablo2. We sold the first duped carrion song for $740 on ebay which was the best bow in vanilla. Pimped out accounts were worth a lot, but I just sold individual (duped) items back before it was rampant. We weren't the only ones duping back then, but I think we might have been the first ones to start to make money off of it. I made more money off D2 than any MMO i've sold for. Shadowbane was probably 2nd highest with duped gold being the only real way to afford a city but the market got saturated so quickly after the dupe method we were using got leaked by someone. | ||

(couldve made a couple grand easily, oh well) I know dying in HC can turn a lot of people off right away, but if you have a nice network of friends, they'll hook you up fast with a rush through hell mode and then hook you up w/ some gear and help you with quests you'll be pimpin it up in no time, then start doin MF/leveling eventually on your own for better gear You should've also been saving all the drops incase its a new ladder season to make for smooth leveling incase you need to start over And if you get to lvl 80-90 then you can just non stop MF until you have a ridiculous amount of good gear saved up to make dying less upsetting since it'll b easy to start over | ||

Thats because it is, Diablo 2 is an economy game, If you somehow manage to game the system and cash out with a ton of RL or ingame loot, you are a baller. The whole point of D2 online is just to accumulate as much value as possible. If you want to just play the standard game you can do single player, or lan, or just play standard online (there are basically 2 economies, the rich mass running and botting economy, and the regular players poor economy, these only cross in the occasional free game.) Its not like an FPS where using exploits and cheating just ruins everyones experience. In D2, ripping people off, exploiting glitches, and cheating, IS the game. | ||

You will never make money off of something anyone and everyone could/is doing. You gotta get in at the stage where it takes real ingenuity to program your own bots and hacks. | ||

As far as I know it's impossible to get that high within a few hours anymore. They removed ubers levelling which was the prime way to get to 85+ in around two hours. Oh, and enigma is not that big of a deal.. maybe on ladder near the beginning of the season but definitely not non-ladder (I have 4 mules filled with enigmas only on NL) Starting a fresh ladder season is the best way to make money, as high runes go for absurd prices, along with virtually any other good/godly item found that early. | ||

However do your research because while i haven't had any trouble with it, i'm not sure its 100% unbannable safe. this takes away all of the fun of hardcore, why would you do this, might as well play softcore | ||

I quit after getting most of my accts banned because I was...... multi tabbing? I legally owned all my cd keys so I don't know what the problem was. Whatever. I already proved everything in there anyways, especially after soloing uber tristram with no bo or any assist hehe edit: the perfect storch I got off that solo made it so much more rewarding. I guess that was a good time to retire anyways. | ||

Anyways we aren't on Hardcore but we made it to Hell with me as a lvl 72 Druid and him as a lvl 71 Necromancer. All we do is summon things hahaha it's pretty fun except now on Act II it's getting ridiculously hard. His golems die really fast and my bear/wolves can only do so much. One question, Do the monsters drop better items on Hardcore? No. And who uses golems? normal skele's is where it's at. Revives and clay golem too. | ||
