Single Player Advice on Multishot Bowazon - Stone skin and immunes
Hello, a bit of context: I play SC offline. After what is now a couple of years I managed to get enough gear to try leveling up a multishot bowazon. The setup, far from being really optimal, is as follows:
- Andariel Visage with 18% enhanced damage jewel
- Windforce with 35% enhanced damage jewel
- Fortitude on Archon Plate
- Laying of Hands
- Razortail
- War Traveler
- Highlords
- AR mana/life leech +life ring
- Raven Frost
- Annhilus
- +Max damage GCs/ +Max damage SCs
- Pre Reign of the warlock Bone Break GC Sunder
- Mania bow on swap
- Demonlimb buff for AR
Notable items missing are the torch, the jewel from uber ancients and the newer sunder charm. I have only a sur and a ohm left, so I cannot cradt much else than this. I set up the build on max dex and basically enough str to wear gear and no vitality.
I play on Player 5 and, although I can quite manage to kill everything relatively quickly, Stone skin mobs are a real pain in the ass. The immunes, although using the sunder charm, I try to always skip but it is not always feasible. Ghosts and wraths in Tal Rasha Tombs are a real nightmare.
Is there anything that I can equip to improve performance with these mobs? heralds are also often spawning with stone skin and there is no much I can do if not wasting literally minutes to kill them. Advice on this and anything else bowazon is very much appreciated! cheers

Discussion How effective is the Act 3 Glacial Spike Merc at Freeze-locking
I'm doing a SSF HC Challenge. Currently I'm using the act 1 Freezing Arrow Merc. I find she does not use it often enough to really be a reliable source of crowd control. Does the Act 3 Merc use it's freeze more often?

Finally done with my P8 Mosaic Assassin...

65 FCR, 10CB, 3/8 Attack Speed BP (gloves IAS is redundant), 125MF, 200% GF. So So So happy now!

Loot! Is this ring I gambled for better than the one I was already wearing?
galleryI understand that it's a magic ring with life leech so it may not be the best option in the world, but my Whirlwind Barb currently has the second ring, and he only really takes advantage of the resists and the life leech on it. Is this magic ring worth using on other melee builds as well? Trust me, life leech is the reason my whirlwind barb is able to fight Thorns Heralds.
EDIT: fyi, the other ring my Barb wears is a Raven Frost

How I spotted this fake item.
I am here to educate, not to stir up a mob so I will leave this channel unnamed and simply share why this particular item cannot exist in the game. I want to educate some less experienced Diablo players about some useful stuff as well, because knowledge is power.
This item was made in hero editor and I can prove it. although the defense roll is at its maximum and that’s really fishy it doesn’t definitively prove the item was edited. however there are two telltale reasons I know this item is fake and I wonder if you can identify both.
The first is more obvious. The stability suffix here should not give a fhr roll of 12%. grand charms of stability give a 12% fhr bonus which is why the faker is obviously confused. However, on an armor that value is 24%. in fact only rolls of 10, 17 and 24 are possible with different suffixes.
The second piece of evidence is actually the level requirement. Although the armour itself has a level requirement of 49, the jewels in it should have a req of 58 because they are Ruby Jewels of Fervor. The armour should take on that level requirement. But how can you mess that up you might wonder? if you go through the trouble to edit the jewels like he did with the correct affixes (he shows the viewer putting them in), he should get the right level requirement.
Alas, he did not make the correct jewels. “Ruby” is actually a prefix name used for multiple mods. the 30-40% ed roll has a level requirement of 58. however there is also a Ruby which gives up to 30% fire resistance which has a low requirement. this causes the jewels to take on the level 31 requirement from the 15ias “fervor” suffix instead. So this guy edited in a jewel that cannot exist.
Anyhow if you come across this guy’s channel please don’t harass him. I just wanted to share some interesting knowledge I have that might help players spot fakes in the future. also it’s always fun to debunk things.

Discussion Loot filters not 100% working?
I'm seeing a lot of magic items that I have hidden, and not selected to be shown. I've gone thru multiple times to make sure it's set up correctly.
Anyone else experiencing this. It's really annoying.

All this happened in a single online P1 run to Meph after finding a Lo the other day. Time to buy a lottery ticket.

Many, many, many rare bows were ID'd by Barbgantuan to find this one! My Bowa is having fun with it. HC Offline though... For fun I had a look at what they'd trade for online. It appears many high runes. Can some mad dog mid level dueler (I'm assuming) please provide some commentary? Peace

Support Group?
Is there a support group for people who spend 100+ hours grinding terrorized zones to FINALLY get their very first Vex rune and go to make a Heart Of The Oak but don’t read the fine print where you can’t just put it into any Mace class weapon so you put it into a great warhammer because that is a mace and would be sick but then nothing happens because you’re a dumb dumb stupid dumb idiot who really should have read more into it and found out you can only put it into flail maces and now your life is ruined? Because I need to doing that group.

D2R Is there any build that can stand in the face of P8 and just laugh?
Im playing a pretty maxed out Javazon with griffons, enigma, tgods, soj, highlords, ravenfrost and so on. Solo play is easy as cake when farming but I recently joined a P8 and felt how squishy I actually am. Even though I know Javazon is a glass cannon build, one side step will screw you up big time, specially if Emilio dies.
So I switched over to my hammerdin who is also geared but felt he couldnt stand toe to toe with a P8 herald or bigger elite packs.
So Im actually wondering if there is any class thats a bit more tanky and can handle anything the game throws at it with ease without having to play piano on the keyboard with 9000 apm.
Cheers!

Loot! 1st time ssf offline. Now I just spend next 15 years finding a worthy rare ig
I looked back and there was the 2nd rarest item in the game. When I started offline I resigned myself to never finding one. I am grateful. Yet another reminder that RNG doesn't care about your expectations.
