    [1.09b] Erayz’s Unreasonable Project [1457/2376]

    I get your point. The reason why I tried to beat v1.00 on hc in p1 was the same. I wanted the experience to be authentic. Regarding the experience: You get 416.497 exp from one p8 Diablo kill on a level 98 character with an exp shrine. So you need 699 DIablo kills under these conditions to get...

    [1.09b] Erayz’s Unreasonable Project [1457/2376]

    So, I first wondered why you got such small amounts of experience from the p8 Daiblo kill, before i realized that you were playing on 1.09 classic. I made the mistake to assume you were playing on a pre LoD patch for this. 😅 The amount of experience you got from a Diablo kill back then was...

    1.07, 1.08, 1.09 - Which LoD is the one?

    Thank to everyone for helping me out here! 🙏 Can't wait for my 1.05 Bowazon to be finished and finally start playing LoD! 😁

    1.07, 1.08, 1.09 - Which LoD is the one?

    Thanks for the answers. :) I heard that Druid and Assassin stuggle a bit in these patches, but would love get a feel of how different the playstyle was without any synergies. My goal is to get an authentic experience first, so I thought about starting with 1.07. However, 1.08 was released just...

    1.07, 1.08, 1.09 - Which LoD is the one?

    I have been worried about my barbarian in particular not faring so well once moved to LoD, so I actually min maxed the build putting just a single point into Spear Mastery. 😅 I would like to see how well characters can adjust to the balance change, after trying out Druid and Assa. Have been...

    1.07, 1.08, 1.09 - Which LoD is the one?

    While I have been mostly playing the pre expansion patches until now, I haven't decided on wether to play 1.07, 1.08 or 1.09 in LoD. :unsure: It seems like 1.07 was still very unbalanced, but there seem to be so many changes between those three patches... I'm not entirely sure which one to...

    Diablo II v1.00 (HC SSF Hell Difficulty) All Classes Challenge

    Interesting... Would have to test the exp on 1.00 and 1.05, too, to see the difference. Also notice how there are a ton of hardcore 99 characters in LoD, but we never saw a hardcore 99 character in classic.

    Diablo II v1.00 (HC SSF Hell Difficulty) All Classes Challenge

    The pre LoD level 99 characters were all on softcore. there hasnt been any level 99 on the ladder leaderboards that i could find on battle.net via web archive. Sounds reasonable to me. The GERBarb team mentioned that even their decked out Barbarian died during disconnects, before they switched...

    Diablo II v1.00 (HC SSF Hell Difficulty) All Classes Challenge

    I was really confused too at first. But in an interview, a member of the GERBarb team actually explained in an interview how they could manage up to 250 Diablo kills on a good day and get close to 300 million Experience in a weekend. So I thought to myself, whould this person really lie when...

    Diablo II v1.00 (HC SSF Hell Difficulty) All Classes Challenge

    Not that many kills are needed in 1.04, the patch in which it happened and the one I tested it with. A Diablo kill on p8 used to gives you 416.497 experience points on level 98. So would only need slightly more than 700 kills on level 98 to reach 99. It's true that they had a team that helped...

    Diablo II v1.00 (HC SSF Hell Difficulty) All Classes Challenge

    I guess it depends on whom you talk with. A lot of people that criticise the older patches don't really remember them well. had one guy telling me that Amazon and Necro werent viable in pre expansion and that's just nonsense. The Bowazon is one of the best DPS builds against larger groups of...

    Diablo II v1.00 (HC SSF Hell Difficulty) All Classes Challenge

    Finally, the Sorceress: Queen Cyra You now there is so much talk about how more powerful casters are in Diablo II v1.14 and even more so in D2R, how they shouldn't blow up the entire screen within one second, how melee needs AOE damage to keep up. (God forbid that!) 🤮 Not being able to buy mana...

    Diablo II v1.00 (HC SSF Hell Difficulty) All Classes Challenge

    So just about a week ago I finished v1.00 with all five classes. All these runs were on hardcore, singleplayer and self-found all the way through Hell difficulty. So no muling was allowed. In total I had 3 deaths (Necro, Barbarian and Amazon) and also lost my save files early on (lost another...

    Diablo 2 - Alpha Version - Gameplay (June 1998)

    Amazing job on exposing this. It's funny that someone actually recommended this person's channel to me. But there was something about the videos that just rubbed me the wrong way. Maybe just the usage of all the old D1 graphics? Not sure... GameStar is a german magazine/channel that I have...

    A few questions about FCR and FHR in v1.00

    Had the same thought, about the developers wanting people to just focus more on the gameplay, than spending too much time on planning out the gear they would wear. This kind of fits with David Brevik's design philosophy. According to him, that was the whole reason why you just pick one class...

    A few questions about FCR and FHR in v1.00

    So, I just managed to get my Sorc in v1.00 Magefist, Wall Of Eyeless and a nice FCR Scepter. Magefist and Wall of Eyeless both offer 'Faster Cast Rate', while my Scepter has 'Fastest Cast Rate'. Considering that there exist three different Item Mods for Cast Rate, I wonder how much percent is...

    About the Whirlwind Barbarian...

    Yea. My 1.00 Necro did the Maggot Lair without Revives. Hard enough with a Golem blockig you. Exp was pretty insane though. 😂

    About the Whirlwind Barbarian...

    Thanks for the confirmation! Was really wondering why enemies were getting pulverized like that, when I got Whirlwind on level 30. 🤣
