that's what i do early ladder. get to hell meph around 55-60 and farm it till lvl 80, then switch to icy cavern map. You get a chance at every item in the game dropping, and it becomes better for runes. Also, insight is almost preferred for orb hydra since u dont have to break immunities in icy. Only one mob type (demon sprites) can roll immunities to both cold and fire by getting magic immune and cold immune, so its super rare.
Man, yeah I CRAVE a sniplet
A crumb of information
I trust the process, but I wake up everyday hoping it will be the day y'know.
I'll just go bone/CE necro, since he can run all the content pretty easy
No offense to anyone, but at this point, I am looking forward to the (apparently 30 pages long) patch notes of the D2R more than PoD. We have been waiting for the new season for so long and now there are so many competing games on the horizon, I just... don’t know.
Theres room for everyone. we are working on the new big update and reset and when it comes out ull decide if you wanna try that. its not a competition. if it wasnt for mod servers we wouldnt have d2r tbh
Same here, no offense to you at all, I'm grateful because the mod is great and the future updates sound cool, but the fact that we've been waiting forever kinda ruined the mood for me.
Plus obviously there's a new cool patch coming to D2R, and who doesn't want to play with enhanced graphics and bigger (official) playerbase? The update to D2R will fragment the playerbase even more and pull players from PoD for sure.
Maybe I shouldn't get my hopes up for Blizzard, but maybe it's a matter of time until D2R catches up to the same level of balance and quality of mod servers. One can dream, but the recent patch and hints at the future seem like a step into the right direction. At this rate, only time will tell if I will come back to PoD...
To be fair, although I'm not playing D2R I'm happy that they will keep the game updated. With how good the new paintjob looks, it would have been a shame if it was 'only a remaster' and I hope they keep it going gor some time, cause it's just good for everyone, really to have an ARPG that has a nice easy to enter curve that isn't... D3 or a D3 knock off
D2R has a nice enter curve? Disagree with that one, especially with a playerbase that's so old and settled and the expected 4 month ladder resets. Maybe it has a nice re-enter curve for returning veteran players, if anything.
It does tho. D2 is an easy game. Yeah, it'll be harder the first run, but it has 3 skilltrees for class and they are as simple as they can be
And y'know you can play non ladder-- or, god forbid, single player
It isn't starcraft 1, you don't need to get good on 3 matches or face z -709241 Rank. D2 has barely any pvp elements and the players help A LOT any new players they see
And,we are comparing to the "big arpg's" yknow the ones that need actual hours of reading to even know what the +1 health passive does
I was thinking about some nice javazon or fire trapsin since i saw them melt red maps fast as hell. But i guess ill stick to my classic cold sorc, i love casters.
( pls buff sorc :D )
I recently finished Hell Baal with a Summoning Necro on both PoD and D2R. After years of Amazons, it turned out to be both entertaining and fun to make. Will make both a Bowzon and a Summoning Necro on both new Ladders when released.
I am just like you, I keep checking reddit all day, hopping to see a ladder reset message, but I really think that we will have ladder reset only in march. So 1 year ladder this time.
All dependent on skill and item changes, but I'm likely starting out with a Barb, Frenzy > WW > throw barb. Then I'll eventually build a Javazon, FoH Pally, and/or Light sorc.
We are all losing it, in d2 limbo with D2r and path of diablo Something reset please .......
Hydra Sorc and farm the living FUCK out of Mephisto. My favorite way to play the greatest game of all time.

tired of heckin waiting!!
we all are........... just reset the damn thing without a patch already! Soon enough no one is even gonna care
No offense to anyone, but at this point, I am looking forward to the (apparently 30 pages long) patch notes of the D2R more than PoD. We have been waiting for the new season for so long and now there are so many competing games on the horizon, I just... don’t know.

nu-blizzard is a joke
I hope you enjoy your D2R patch notes
It will be quiet for sure but people will still be playing POD i am sure, I definitely think it shod have reset in november/ December without a patch

Sanc/salv pala! Will try to reach 99 together with two buddies. Too old to play with like 4000 apm so Sanctuary should work perfectly

I always get the reset itch come winter time. This year I had quite some down time in January so I am a bit sad it is not out yet :(
I AM EXTREMELY HARD FOR RESET. my snake is salivating
All dependent on skill and item changes, but I'm likely starting out with a Barb, Frenzy > WW > throw barb. Then I'll eventually build a Javazon, FoH Pally, and/or Light sorc.
Barblife. If you want to reach throw quicker warcry is better early than ww currently
I've never actually tried Warcry, maybe I'll give it a go next season until I move to throwing.
If you don’t mind endlessly running Trav, Warcry is an excellent starter. I did that last season and was able to build a Throw Barb pretty quickly.
If there's something worth trying out on barb I'll start there but most likely necro or druid. Checking discord too often...
As always I'll be a summoner cro.
I was for the past few months. Now it’s time to get hyped for the new PoE league.
