I am a lowly noob and not very good at recognizing what stats to prioritize. Should I stick with the Skystrike or turn the Stag Bow into a Melody and go with that?

Edit: I am going with a Freezing Arrow build if that changes anything

How much are head hunter glory 3os corrupted or not corrupted. Or similar items/runes of worth.

I didn't start on season 1, but 2. There's been so many QOL changes that improved the game 10 fold. My most memorable one was the old way of copying the loot filter into the pd2 files and instructing PD2 noobs how to get their filter running.

Making materials stackable, auto gold pickup. So many little things that we take for granted.

Comment some of your favorite QOL improvements as a thank you to the PD2 team. It would also be a cool way to reminisce

Hello everyone, DBPZE here finally able to share my journey of 1-99 HC solo mapping. This was something I had set out to do since the start of season however 18 days ago I died at 98.7% in Throne of Insanity of my Necromancer BackToLostArk (will provide link later). However that's just where the journey began as dying gave me a unique opportunity to do/test/track some things I regretted not doing from the beginning. So began the grind of DBPZ (https://projectdiablo2.com/character/DBPZ), a truly 100% solo experience Necromancer from 1-99.

I had set a few internal "rules" for this goal, first as stated 100% solo experience. No asking friends to join Mend events, no joining others Mend events, no asking people to afk in game for extra EXP, ethically sourced solo EXP only. Second rule was to map ASAP when reaching level 80, no grinding Trav to level 90 then map which would artificially lower monster kills like my first attempt. The goal was to track maps, kills, vex+ runes throughout a mostly mapping experience. Third was to try and be efficient/fast in the sense of least amount of maps/kills (not days/hours). It took me 16 days of in game time (18 days real time) to complete the second attempt.

Here is the day to day data + final total at the end for both the first failed attempt and second one that was completed

Map statistics, only 3 maps were run on the completed attempt, Royal Crypts, River of Blood, Pandemonium Citadel. Why River of Blood DBP? I died after running of the most meta/popular T2s on my first Necromancer. To achieve a large enough map pool in a short amount of time on HC River of Blood was chosen simply due to how many I could obtain. Horazon Events if done/desirable were only counted as 1 map not 2 just a personal thing.

Start: Level: 80 0.00%
Total Crpyts Ran: 65
Start: Level: 92.29%
Total Rivers Ran: 252
Start: Level: 96.68%
Total Pandes Ran: 470
SoH Usage: 722 (Everything but Crypts)
+2/+1 Maps were run at the start of 98%
135 +2/+1 Maps were run in total, ~65 had catalyst shards
Those 135 Maps got me 57% through 98 meaning each map 
averaged 0.422222% exp which is pretty cracked.

It's been another crazy journey but I couldn't have done it alone. So many people have made this possible and everything is owed to them: Corr, Daarmyd2, Yeet, UHD, Gasior, Kaldr_OG, Dingus18075, Ryuquezacotl, Qwertyxasdf, Tilt, Gizmoe, Swas09, Warpstorm, Raynarr, Leakycougar, Beardbastard, Draiguy, Skerry, Maskerry, WartornTitan, Mitchell, WillhardCS, JoEPIC_TV, SRSQTEE, FRKSTN, Veredra, Nini, Retrocro, Cucks* (The player not in general), Twitch chat lurkers, the PD2 streamers 3moth, Tatti, Infael, DVG, Supa, Juxta, Chuqie, Sky88, LuckyLuciano, the Diablo 2 streamers Kano, Teo, Indrek.

Finally, the PD2 team. I got to play and share hundreds of hours of gameplay with my best friends. Thank you!

As promised here is my 98.7 death and yes I'm slow AF on the Juvs: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2327817482

Hi did someone find a good way to play pd2 with controller ?

Hey there,

I never tried to kill Ubers in this mod. Not uber trist, nor Dclone, Rathma, Lucion.

I would like to change this in this season. And I want to use my barb for it.

What build would you suggest for it? Can you link me a guide or armory? And I do have an eth 4OS doombringer I would like to use. What other weapon would you suggest to pair it with? Or is there another really good uber build which uses that weapon?

I do have runes and a really good frozen orb sorc I would like to spent on items. It is getting harder to find those ppl who want to sell or buy stuff. So if you have items for an uber build and you want to swap or trade or give those, I would appreciate it.

Best regards

I am enjoying PD2 a lot right now, playing SSF at the moment. My loot filter regularly highlights whites & blues and I am not sure what to do with them ;) May be some one could help me with a general guide line or tips on what to keep and why (crafting, etc.).

Some examples, that get highlited by the loot filter: Stag Bow (blue), Sup Eth Wire Fleece (white), etc.

Why the mace with lower item lvl and lower affix lvl has 10-400 ed range? The sword has higher lvls but lower only 10-300 max ed possible? (Btw it is ssf, so I know they arent gg but for my barb yes atm xd)

Got a Jah dropped just. All I need is a Lo which should be relatively easy at 1HR. Tempes to make rapture for act5 merc. I knew it is best to go with innocence but I don’t have another 5.25HR. I think at the current price of Jah 3+HR I either sock it for end game boss or make famine. I was convinced by a pro paladin that famine still decent. Currently using lightsaber 4 sockets but no fire facets in. +5/-4 facets four of those are around 6HR. So at the moment I need to further boost up my damage. I was hitting 100000 dps in crowded tier3 maps but my fire arrow Amazon easily hitting 200000…..

Does anyone know if there's an s10 updated item pack anywhere? I wanna do some testing.

Hi guys,

Is there a comprehensive list of what items should I pay my attention when playing PD2 that I would definitely skip playing D2R?

There are of course obvious new items, like maps / WSS, but I am talking more about:

- Uniques that become relevant because they were either upgraded, became better due to new mechanic, or work for new builds that became viable) - like Buriza

- Runeword bases which are now relevant

- Rares with new affixes that are now useful but were not before (apart from obvious ED / sockets / AR and etc.)

Let me know - would appreciate.

Getting Kicked back to login every time i leave a game and have to close completely and reopen to get back in

I saw many posts with different fonts/colored item names/range for items affixes.

Are there any addons or mods that can be put in PD2?

Thanks!

Can anyone help give an idea of what this may be worth, if anything?

Been taking a break to play a bit of POE2 and I found my first Zod in my D2 history. Guess I’ll be playing a bit more

Hey everyone,

I’m wrapping up the season as I’ve started playing PoE2 and am in way too deep. It’s been an incredible run with my Poison Strike Necro, who has carried me through all maps, Ubers, Ubers but I didn't get to test Lucion. He’s fully built out with an A3 Cold Merc and ready for anything.

As a way to give back, I’ll be giving away all my additional gear and stash space just before the giveaway so stay tuned. You can check out the character here: PrinceConsuela.

How to enter:
Comment below with a number between 1 and 1,000. I’ll use a random number generator at 5 PM MST today, and whoever is closest will win! I’ll hold the gear for the winner if they’re not online at the time.

A small request:
Please don’t enter if you already have wealth and fully geared characters. I’d love for this to go to someone who hasn’t had as much time to play this season.

Big shout-out to this amazing community—I’ll see you all next season!

EDIT: Our winner is u/Wasting_Times! They guessed 310 with the winning number being 308, as chosen by google. Thank you to everyone who joined in!

Free stuff is closed.

EDIT I generated the number a bit early, it was 478! So with an insane coincidence, the person who picked 479 and said he made a post about needing vengeance gear earlier WON! Wild.

Hey all, I’m done with the season as I’ve started playing poe2 and am heavily addicted lmao. I’d love to give away my vengeance pally who has done me well through all maps and Ubers and lucion. It’s got a 4os lightsabre with facets, 2 wisps, kiras, alma negra, ias slammed dracs, tgods, and a desecrated highlords. I gave away all my stash items last week so now it’s time for the main character.

https://projectdiablo2.com/character/ChainEm

I’ll log on tonight around 8 pm EST to give the gear away. Just comment below a number between 1-1000, and I’ll do a random number generator, and give it to whoever is closest. EDIT: I’ll pick the number at 8, and if you can’t be on then to get it, no worries. I’ll hold it for you.

I ask that you don’t enter if you have some wealth and fully geared chars. I’d like to give it to someone who hasn’t had as much time to play.

Thanks y’all, this season was fun. Much love

EDIT I generated the number a bit early, it was 478! So with an insane coincidence, the person who picked 479 and said he made a post about needing vengeance gear earlier WON! Wild.

Planning on to start a vengeance paladin but don’t have the most time to play with work and all things going on, and trading seems pretty dead atm.

Was wondering if anyone have some vengeance paladin items they wanna sell me for cheaper if u don’t play anymore or if they’re just rotting in ur stash, I have some hrs for trade ~5-6

I’m sick from work today so home all day and can trade whenever

Just made my paladin to reach level 80 to start mapping.

https://www.projectdiablo2.com/character/Reinn

The gears are all right. Maybe lacks mana after each kill but I have boots with a +3.

Without the blessed aim aura from merc my attack rating is 6500, with it 9500.

I aim to get rapture and innocence for act5 war cry merc but that also will put me to 6500 attack rating.

I don’t think I should swap either one of my rings for raven frost with near 250 attack rating, but if you say that is a must I will try to get one.

I think the legit approach is to get attack rating small charms?

I am not too worried about my dps as I still have 4 sockets for fire facets. And I am just level 80.

Hey so I want to start a boss killer char and I was thinking about trying a smiter.

Never played smiter in PD2 only vanilla LoD. Anyone has a budget guide to start bossing?

Is life tap wand still a thing until you get last wish? Or anyone suggesting a different budget pala bossing build?

Hope you guys can give me some input :)

Am I the only person that could stuff up a bladesin so bad that I couldn't handle t2 lucion?

For context, I have literally never played assassin in either lod or pd2. Never really found the character interesting.

I wanted to build a boss fighter but build a cold sacrifice pally last season.

Here's the gear:

https://www.projectdiablo2.com/character/WingDings

The first phase was pretty easy but as soon as the portals were summoned, I struggled to kill the summons.

Any advice from bladesin experts out there who have successfully taken lucion t2 down?

Forgot to mention I switched out my max life / damage charms to my other character. I was on roughly 2.7k hp and 51% PdR. Admittedly, I only had 82 max light res

I just found a Mirror. What the hell do I do with it? Sell for HRs?

What's the best way to go about it?

What do people usually do with it? They pay someone to Mirror their item and keep the Mirrored item?
