Is the Andariel Quest Bug still a thing?

Currently still in Act 1 NM and decided to look up what Loot Andariel could drop. In doing so, I find out she had a bug you could exploit. If that still exists, I have a few questions:

  1. Am I allowed to collect the initial loot she drops?

  2. Is this available on both Offline and Online (Ladder)?

  3. If I'm understanding the steps correctly, it's Kill Andy, Don't quit, TP home, Go straight to Act 2 and she's now forever bugged... Is this correct?

NM Hammerdin Question

Which is better for a Hammerdin in Nightmare: Spirit Sword or a Wand with Reduce Defense and FCR (If that exists...)? Or maybe even something else?

Does Larzuking sup item remove sup quality?

I rarely Larzuk sup items mostly due to repair costs, but this time, I needed a 4os pally shield, and a Superior Sacred Rondache was the only one I had. But after giving it to Larzuk, the Superior affix seems to have disappeared.

Is that a glitch? Or does giving an item to Larzuk remove the superior quality?

Unravellers as Hammerdin

Hey any advice how to deal with the unravellers in wave 2 Baal? I just beat hell for the first time but dealing with these sucked since I only deal magic damage and they are immune. Had to pull the adds out first and then wait for my Merc to finish them. I’d love to farm Baal but not if I have to do this every time 😅 thanks!!

Energy Shield not consuming any Mana.. Bug??

I'm playing a HC sorc running energy shield. I'm currently level 43 and have maxed telekinesis and 3 points into ES. My resistances are all capped but have little in terms of magic or damage reduction.

I've been noticing this for a long time but wasnt sure if it was just a misunderstanding of how energy shield worked, but after watching many videos and reading posts, i've got a fair understanding of what SHOULD be happening, but here's what is ACTUALLY happening..

No matter what hits me.. my mana never goes down. Instead, all damage is going directly to my health pool and mana stays full, not even losing a single point. I have tested this on several mobs, if i stand there with energy shield on, my mana never goes down.. only health.

Someone please help me understand what is going on here, because i'm starting nightmare mode and put almost all my points into energy to have a high mana pool that isn't doing anything to help me mitigate damage.

First ever Cham advice

Just got my first high rune, a Cham, from hell cows. My main character is my pally, currently hammers. I presume I socket that into my upgraded vipermagi for the “cannot be frozen”, correct?

Farming strategy

Greetings all, thanks for the advice in my last post. I now have a 77 light sunder and made the jump back to L/CL Sorc build. I had trouble killing sundered enemies, then I put Crescent Moon on and it's been fine. I dropped one category below the fcr spot you want to be, but I still crush stuff online P1 anyway.

My question is, now that I'm 85 and every monster in a TZ is at least 87, is the primary method for farming high level runes and gear to just run a descent TZ over and over? Maybe some cows for runes?

Also, if say, Andy is Terrorized, is it better to just boss rush her for an hour since you can get there in like 30 secs as opposed to killing everything? Many thanks.

So far I'm running:
Shako, CMoon, 32% Spirit Monarch, Vmagi (had to swap out Ormus for 10% more fcr), Trangs, Wartravs, Tals belt/ammy, SoJ, and 10%fcr ring.

Really looking for an arach mesh, griff (lol right), better sunders, and runes.

My merc is in Treachery, Insight (Bill non eth :(...), Darkhelm I think. Looking for any decent 4 OS base for a new insight as well some day.

LK vs Countess for Gul rune?

Trying to make my Mosaics ASAP in single player. I’m playing sin so no tp. I know that generally you run Countess for everything up to Ist, and LK for everything else. But seeing as you can easily cube up to Gul from Ist, would it make more sense to run Countess if Guls are all I care about?

Edit: looks like LK it is! Both are pretty close in terms of odds and time but the added hr chance from LK seems to make it make more sense to run. Thanks!

Uniques on SP

Just to be sure - when I find some desired unique but with low stats I wont find another until its sold - but I can transfer out of shared stash to some placeholders char private tab and then I can find another right? Never thought about this before…online you can have many same uniques dropped

Blizz vs Nova

TLDR - How much power drop will I notice switching from a more end game Blizz to more budget Nova?

SP here. My blizz is very solid; deaths fathom & nightwings with facets, torch, 3 piece tals, etc. Haven’t dropped a single sorc Skiller but whatever.

Nova would be in the more beginner gear range - crescent moon, viper magi, etc; no Griffs or infinity yet.

I’m just a bit bored of playing Blizz for a bit and want to switch it up. But i can also smash P8 all day, and curious what I’d be limited to on a more beginner nova setup?

I’ve got perfect sunder charms for both builds of course. Normal farm run on blizz atm is pits/tombs/AT/LK at P8 and then the TZ at an appropriate player count pending resist checks so it’s not slow.

Crappy Frenzy Barb question

NO COLD DAMAGE ITEMS AND NO SLAIN MONSTERS REST IN PEACE ITEMS PLEASE

Alright so I have a trav running barb. That's basically all I have him for at the moment. I am avoiding cold damage everywhere for maximum find item potential so bodies don't shatter. I am in need of suggestions for an upgrade for something though. I can still run trav fine but I am going to ask if there is something weapon wise I can upgrade to. My gear atm is:

Arreats, Angelics, Gores, Laying of Hands, Crap Grief PB, Treachery, The set belt with CBF on it I can't remember atm.

The two slots I can change are a ring slot, and the second weapon slot. I need mana leech and the only mana leech I have is from my second weapon, Lightsabre. I can probably find a mana leech ring somewheres but I am curious if there is a sword/runeword that fits in a phase blade that has mana leech, and also no cold damage. Since at least one of the trav has mana drain on hit, I need that mana leech somewhere and those are the only two slots I can really change around if I'm honest.

I feel like I should say this again just to really drive it home.

I WANT NO COLD DAMAGE SO TRY NOT TO SUGGEST THAT STUFF PLEASE, ITS COOL IF YOU CAN DEAL WITH IT BUT I PERSONALLY CANT TAKE SEEING BODIES SHATTER WHEN I WANNA HORK.

What makes D2 the best ARPG?

I just played through Last Epoch. Great game, build diversity is truly amazing and much better than I expected. However deep down.. if I was stuck on an Island, I'd prob take D2 to keep forever...not sure why?

LK runs on Switch?

I’ve finally gotten around to trying my hand at running some LK in search of anything higher than an Ist, since that’s all I’ve been blessed with in this game so far (thanks, Countess). However, I play on a first gen Switch and the load times can be absolutely atrocious. A single run on a good map with two campfires takes about 50-55 seconds which doesn’t seem ideal. Some of the assets are still loading when I get to the huts, too - and when the first chest opens, most of the time the actual item names don’t load for a good 3 or 4 seconds.

My question is, does anybody else experience this kind of thing? Anything at all that I can do to improve the experience? Or am I shit out of luck and just have to deal with it?
