what was your main in D2?
What was your main in D2?
Whatever i feel like in my annual replay it until i get bored in act 3 or after diablo
Whirlwind Barbarian
frenzy is better
Necromancer because it was fit like a glove to game's aesthetic, then I switched to Amazon because it has a more reactive gameplay
Skele necro is my go to. Fanatic zealot paladin would be my second choice.
For me, it's the Bone Necromancer so I can easily kill Lvl 98 Bots in Baal runs
shapeshifting/summoning druid for me.
Summonmancer every single time.
you did play on /players8 the entire time didn't you?
Frost orb sorceress
Sodommancer or fluid druid
>Main
First I make a MF sorc then I make a ton of characters. I think my favorite thus far is a kicksin with...
>Stormlash socketed with ber
>Gface or a good sin circlet.
>Stormshield socketed with pdiamond/um
>fortitude archon plate
>Ravenfrost
>dual leech ring
>String of ears (15DR)
>Up'd Gores
>Drac gloves
>Maras or highlords
Then the merc is a might merc with:
>infinity (broken with all the light/fire/physical damage I do)
>Fort
>Andy's
This girl can clear entire screens quickly up to players 5 in fashion. Also she has a built in teleport with dragon... the last kick ability. Thanks to burst of speed she has a very fast run speed.
I should dive into the recent ladder reset. I really wish they would combine US east and west servers to increase the playerbase. There's no need to separate them anymore since nobody uses 56k internet to play now.
I kept going back to Sorceress and Paladin, even after the expansion. I found both expac characters pretty snooze inducing desu.
It's such a satisfying skill.
Commander Necromancer.
Boring as fuck but I didn't have friends to play with at the time.
Sorceress because it's the only class that doesn't need great gear to flurish.
Also what the fuck is up with melee being dog shit
>fuck is up with melee being dog shit
all the meele skills are based off of weapon damage so you need a good weapon for it to work vs spellcasters where the damage comes from the spell rank
the only character i haven't made successfully in my twenty years of playing this game is the Amazon. Diablo 2 owns, wish i could go back to the golden age of battle.net
Tesladin always felt great, especially in PvP
They nerfed Amazon hard in 1.10
Windforce MS made 8 player cow games look like a joke.
Trapsin
Summoner druid
Barb mfer
Classic frozen orb/fireball sorc
Fist of heavens pally
Didn't understand how maximum damage+ worked and stacked elemental damage because it said bigger numbers on it?
Sorc. It worked out though because sorcs do all right without good gear, and I was poor and stupid and died constantly because of bad PC, and wasn't smart/hardcore enough at the time to research what the best builds were or how to play or grind efficiently. Really it's the best class if you're just plain bad at the game.
>When you launch the orb at the perfect distance such that all of the bolts in the orb explosion detonate inside the enemies' hitbox and shreds them.
So good. No other D2 skill was as satisfying to me. I will forever be mad at patch 1.10 for messing with the game's difficulty and adding so many immunities to monsters.
I didn't have a main, really.
I had a couple I used for magic finding, mostly a blizzard sorc I ran Pindle with until she hit 99 and, back when it was worth it, a strafe zon for cows.
Mostly I'd just make new and increasingly strange builds and play them solo to matriarch/patriarch status. I guess it culminated with the melee sorceress I played through without ever spending a stat or skill point.
werewoof and random select stat/skill paladin
Yes, I'm sure melee is just as strong, fast, efficient, and cost-effective as fucking sorcs. You alone have cracked the code. Everyone else just got it wrong. Congratulations. Have a cookie.
You're so well versed in the game you don't even realize that hammerdins were infinitely better than sorcs at their own game
>When you launch the orb at the perfect distance such that all of the bolts in the orb explosion detonate inside the enemies' hitbox and shreds them.
That's not what you said, you said melee was dog shit and that user proved you probably never understood how the stat scaling worked
Started Barb, got boring fast.
Paladin next, like a Barb that actually looks like he's doing shit.
Then Necro, only did pets build, SUPER fun until it's not.
Did trapsin last. Wasn't great in multiplayer (non pvp).
pre 1.10-forb sorc or necro
post 1.10-forb+fb
POD sucks
Do you seriously think you're impressing anyone by namedropping the most bogstandard staple OP character in the game for what, 15 years running?
And cost-effective my ass. Enigma money will carry any class through hell and to a farming spot.
Barb is probably the hardest class to beat the game (all difficulties).
If you have to put 10 times as much into it to do twice as little, it's shit.
A merc can clear hell. That doesn't mean every spec is good.
If you are trying to speedrun the game you use assassin, if you want to farm hell you use hammerdin
sorc does nothing better than any of the other classes, it's just an easy noob class whose main draws like static orb and enchant have rune words with them on them
barb is also probably the most boring class to beat the game
A merc can't stack max damage runes in his inventory
Necromancer with all points in Bone Spear
skellington summoner
She has teleport. They don't.
My brother
frozen orb sorc
skele necro
strafe amazon
all other characters and builds are shit
Sorcs aren't the best class by a long shot, they are the laziest, usually used for farming for your better characters
