D2
managed to get to act 2
it just has so good replayability
its challenging already from act 1
and playing through all hell act 4 or 5
takes weeks easily
then thats just for 1 character and 1 build
and it doesnt just get slightly less easy
the rare monsters, that is, randomly generated
ones, are more vicious than bosses
its just so much fun, and random items
although they fucked that up with lod
but synergies on skills made it overall
a lot better. still magic and rares are
near useless =(

i remember the previous character i used
it was challenging even in act 1 norm
and this is difficult as well
skellies you cant leech from
and 10 of them shooting fire arrows at you?
and at /players 8, you type that into the chat
they dont come down quickly

oh, forgot the andariel screenie.
as always when youre fighting something challenging
it looks good for a pic, the problem is its lethal
to take a screenie, especially as windows likes to
lag and then youre supposed to
select a certain part of the screen
not pictured here, because then i woulda died, haha
anyway, used stun against the smith
didnt have to use that many potions
and my merc was out of range for the thorns
yes, i modded her
i didnt hit much against him, like 1/3 of the time
but it only took a min
id really like to boost bosses and minibosses health and res
but no do, not so far at least
i guess when i get to act 2 at least
i can reinstall in latest version with lod things too
and just do -act2 in shortcut to get there
anyway, still enjoying d2 as much as ever :)
and we got a rainbow here today in norsborg, woohoo ^__^

quite nice, highest dmg increase ive gotten, and life leach!

so, i was gonna make a 1 hit kill barb
but that will only work with assassin
it sorted worked with barb in act 1 normal
but thats normal i guess
most people on speedruns and unique build vids on youtube
mention scepters as high dmg low level weapons
but what about polearms?
1-26 is not low
so ive sunk in a bunch of points into
pole arm mastery
yes im modding the game
it doesnt make it unbalanced
to and fro, some edits make major changes
like i messed up so nothing costed mana
can be fun so you dont have to chug double pots
but i fixed that
i really have no idea what d2 version im running
its sorta lod but not really?
no expansion characters
editing txts almost doesnt work
at least skills.txt and hireling.txt works
dunno what else, monstats doesnt and some others

anyway, im playing quite oldskool
640x480, i dont really know whats going on haha
![]()
yes, players 8, just makes it more fun and challenging

found this one early on


i mean, the rings arent that bad
the modifiers you can get are terrible though
or rather cant get, theres almost not any
have spent countless hours editing txts
only to have them not work at all
i guess i heard that this version
was more balanced
but it doesnt even have runes
anyway, thats all for now
back to gaming
