I picked this up for the first time this season, having tons of fun so far. Playing melee Sorc, which I've always thought was cool but is pretty awful pre-Dream in vanilla. The melee splash jewel and Fridgerate help so much with its early viability in PoD, it's feeling great. Still not exactly an optimal budget build, but I'm happy it's even sorta functional.
I got a random Ber drop in Hell Den of Evil and I am way too poor/noobish to know what to spend it on. Don't think I've paid more than 2ooc for anything I'm wearing. I could save it for Infinity for my merc, but then I need another Ber.
Any suggestions for what a pre-Dream melee Sorc wants that's worth about a Ber? Socky Shaftstop maybe?

so many stability issues today T.T

Finished my Immortal Kings set on my 78 Barb on Hardcore. Thinking of rolling a bowazon next after I farm some high runes.

its the best to play on a server without bots and cheaters. I like PoD overall so far, but I think the difficulty is quite reduced, despite there being less huge items around generated by bots. Because there are many buffs to skills overall, and they are quite big. So normal is quite fast, and nightmare is feeling bit, too easy i think. Melee splash sounds kinda op but duno. There's quite some good things about PoD though, and so refreshing to play on a server with no cheats that's huge.

They added a lot of endgame stuff which is really hard and are balancing around that. They aren't too worried about the regular game.

its definitely all focused on hell level difficulty. they just updated a bunch of new maps today, was extremely refreshing to clear those.
|
good to know i will play through into hell at least and see what it's like

I hear social distancing with offscreen skills is the map meta.

I cleared a 1200 (Conviction aura) Ruined Citadel last night. Took me near damn an hour but its possible as a solo.
The density is DANK AS FUCKKKKK. Charms and Jewels were littered EVERYWHERE and I found 2 unique rings (one was a wisp) and I found a Sur.
Solo capabilities for high-density maps are for niche builds though. And all melee classes just get absolutely butt-fucked in any high density map.
I believe GD is working on a map solution as hes constantly updating map settings. But rn servers are finally hit with the inevitable (ddosers, hackers etc) So might be a couple days before things are up and running again.

Anyone on SC wanna do some 1k density map clearing with me?
My sin can’t handle these high density maps that’s been collecting dust and nearly all of them is forgotten dessert. Any char that can clean up fire immunes would work well with me.
Loot rules will be all HR and OOC drops will be split 50/50. Everything else is ffa. Also map opener is designated all map drops.

full clearing hasn't given me a profit yet
blitzing on the other hand has gotten me about 10hr in the past 3 days.

blitzing on the other hand has gotten me about 10hr in the past 3 days. I have OCD when it comes to clearing map mobs. I think that’s why bladesin is my fav class.

This looks cool, I may have to give it a try, thanks for sharing!

found another lo and cham
boss rushing white and yellow maps has been way more profitable for me than full clearing
I do still full clear reds but those take a while

Excuse a small rant ahead:
I normally stay away from Reddit except for the PoD forums. I’ve been frequenting there for the past 2-3 years and it’s always been pleasant. But with the recent upsurge of PoD players this season that forum has become real fucking lame. U got guys spitting opinions as facts and telling “I caught a fish this big” anecdotes without video or data to back it up. I can tolerate a lot of things, but spreading misinformation is not one of them. Especially since a lot of new players are seeking legitimate advice.
A recent incident was me advising not to play throwbarb as it’s not very viable in mapping and I got downvoted to oblivion and guys saying they disagree cause I’m playing it wrong. BOY IM ONE OF THE FEW (IF ONLY) DUDE THAT UPLOADS THROWBARB VIDS ON YOUTUBE. then I ask to post a vid of their throwbarb clear and it’s deafening silence lol
Ahhh fuck sorry I had to mini rant. Anyways I have a full ES sorc and Throwbarb if anyone is interested. I only play on my sin now as not to burn out

I know that there is a lot of fan-made stuff for this game. But I have no idea how to install it and make it work in the game. I tried to follow the guide, but either the error appears, or this stuff simply doesn’t appear in my inventory. This is very frustrating for me. Recently I found out that it is possible to purchase different runes for the game on https://www.yesgamers.com/diablo-2/runes But I don’t want to waste my money on stuff I cannot install. Please, someone, help me! I really want to install this stuff, because I’m tired of finding the rune over and over again.
