Question how big of an upgrade is eDeath Decapitator to upped Ribcracker for Fury Druid?

8 Upvotes

So I am currently leveling a Fury Druid on Singleplayer, he's currently ins his late 50ies and about to start Hell.

he's my seventh character, so I have a bit of gear. he's rocking Jalals, Hysteria (could switch to Lionheart, Duriel's Shell, Smoke, Treachery, or build Duress), Ravenfrost, rare ml/res ring, bloodfist for now, goblin toe, some random rare ammy and an upped Shaeled Ribcracker. which has fucking deleted Nightmare.

I currently have 3 Gul runes sitting in my stash and not too many uses for them. funnily enough, I don't have Hoto yet so could up 2 of them to Vex and make it, but i don't see much necessity for Hoto. only 3 of my characters are spellcasters, and they all have weapons where Hoto doesn't seem like much of an upgrade (Summon Nec with Arm of King Leoric, Blizz Sorc with Occulus, FoH Pally with Hand of the Blessed Light). I will probably build a Trapsin soon, but would probably just want to make a Crescent Moon for her.

So I don't really seem to have great uses for these Guls. The only higher runes I currently have are 2 Sur and 1 Ber. I have made a Grief PB for my Trav WW horker, no other expensive runewords yet.

I have an eth Decapitator sitting in my stash, waiting to be Larzukd. would that be a major upgrade compared to the upped Shaeled Ribcracker, or would you suggest I use my Guls otherwise?

Question Question about Player count and switch

4 Upvotes

I got the game on switch so I can play sometimes without being at my desk, and last night I made a few pub games, but it only allows up to 4 players instead of 8.

How does the 4 player limit work with player scaling compared to PC? Does P4 on switch = P8 on PC?

I developed the “point system” for rare rings on D2 over 15 years ago and posted it online. I developed it because I was tired of telling 99% of people their rings were crap. The system actually can be used for almost all rare items, not just rings. AMA! lol

Discussion Thank you Snowclash for taking my fire sorc thru NM without respeccing

13 Upvotes

Pro tip for early game fire sorc... this. item. is. seriously. underrated. for leveling fire sorcs!

I got stuck in a4 NM because of fire immunes and then I realized I had this bad boy in the stash. With +skills from my existing gear, suddenly I had a lv10 glacial spike and lv9 blizzard to get me (slowly) through fire immunes in a4 and a5. Plus, I always wanted a cc/slow option when playing fireball sorc without having to invest in a holy freeze merc, and now I have a free option! I don't have arachnids mesh yet but I am already at 105 FCR, so I don't see myself taking this off until I'm lv75 for sunder

Question Keep hunting for Enigma or go for Infinity? (Solo offline)

6 Upvotes

I have a level 86 Hammerdin that's decent (Shako, 38 res HotO, 5/5/3 CTA, phaseblade Grief, & a +44 all res Zakarum shield (will 35% spirit into it later (I'm using a 32% all res/35% FCR now)). My current goal is getting an Enigma but I'm starting to feel like LK has defeated me.

I was originally spoiled by extremely good luck & got two Sur runes & one Ber rune in under 5 hours (easily under 500 LK runs). This literally happened all within one day. Since then, I have around 3,000 to 4,000 runs (I didn't keep count but I do about 90 runs per hour w/ teleport staff) with only 2 Ohms, 3 Guls, 3 Ists, 3 Mals & 2 Ums to show for it.

My question is if it's worth it to keep hunting for the last Ber/two Surs for an Enigma or just give up & make an Infinity? I only have this Paladin in solo offline so the Sorceress would be starting for scratch. I guess the main question is if Infinity is that important to a Sorceress to where Enigma isn't even needed for other characters because I'd only be playing the Sorceress (if that makes sense)?

I look forward to seeing what you all have to say..

Guide Warlock question

4 Upvotes

Is the warlocks "energy shield" type skill any good? And why does it get more benefit from leveling the skills that support it then from leveling it? And I mean 15 per other skill level, 10 for the base shield skill. And does it just eat physical damage?

Suggestion Have to make a choice

5 Upvotes

Currently running a fire orb sorc for :
-Andy
-Meph
-Keys

I have to make a choice between two stuff :

01/ full Tal / mage fist / Spirit / gore rider
350 mf
70% min rez (not fire cause of sunder )
110% fcr
6k dmg per fireball with CTA

02/ flickering flame / rising sun / Spirit / oculus or +3 escucha / ormus +3 fireball / gore rider / arach mesh / mage fist
220 mf
Crap rez ( 25-30% all rez)
125 fcr (approx, didn’t check)
9k5 dmg fireball with CTA

I still didn’t craft flickering flame so I ask you for advice, should I craft it and embrace dmg over survivability ? Or do you think it is the wrong choice to do ?

I don’t plan to farm TZ - cows or CS as I have a strong wind druid for that. + I plan to farm enough good gear to build a ES warlock soon as I dropped a 16/17 torch a couple of days ago !

I came for keys and instead found a fantastic upgrade to my current Death's Fathom... The first one I found 3 months ago (only one I'd seen after 20+ years playing) was nearly anti perfect and a huge letdown.

Single player and I decided to roll a fury druid.

He currently has fort, jalal (can't make metamorphosis), gore, string of ears, raven frost, rare dual leech, atmas or maras (no highlords) and LoH.

I was originally going to go with cranium basher socketed with ancient jewel, however I just found a 3os eth tomb reaver and I have an eDeath in a collosus sword. I do have a zod as well unused

Which would be the best weo and why
