EoFF Diablo II again, anyone?

[Purcifur]

Lol me and my bf play this whenever I have to go back home. I'll be the first person to admit that I'm terrible at it though :S I'm stoked for diablo 3. I'll work on failing less when that comes out I think.

[Nominus Experse]

It's finally mine.

EDIT: Astrogha is a bitch. But now mine.

EDITRA: I still don't understand why I've yet to come across a unique Mystic Orb.

Show us your tits stats and equipment!

Because the chances for one are like, 1/350. I have 4 PlugY pages of MOs, and have thus far found only two: Kara's Trinket and Larzuk's Round Shot. I'm too afraid of using them properly because they are so rare, so I dupe them when I get the chance. Apparently, they have the highest chances of dropping in A1 and A2 Hatred, probably because MOs are level 1 items.

Suffice it to say, most of them aren't that great. I only bother using MOs on Crafted items, and the Honorific items that I have on my Holy Caster's A3 Cold Merc.

I feel like playing again, but using median.

Rare rings and amulet with life and mana leech as well as +skills. Trying to craft some useful jewels now, though I am considering making myself a Shrine crafted and blessed Tiara. But I have yet to see +skills show up on even a circlet class items when Shrine crafting.

What's interesting is that when the Carpet of Spiders triggers, it triggers where the enemy died, not where I currently am. Rather strange, but useful.

So almost all Sacred Uniques and Great Runewords. I myself am stuck with single-crafted equipment (though my Barbarian does use blessed-craft items, they are also Legacy and lag to Hell and back), buffed to rLvl 119/120 in MOs. The only SU I'm using is Scales, and I can see that you are capable of farming Fautzinville. I'll post my Assassin's stuff one day. I've retired my dedicated Javazon after that duration nerf to Fairy Ring (though I have to yet to give her my Worldstone Key with Bloodlust on it).

Circlets, I believe, can get +3 All Skills. It appears to be a rare modifier, as I've seen it using both a Stone and a Shimmering Shrine in 1.95 (and it definitely does not roll as a Shrine component). As for your Carpet, that's odd; mine always spawns wherever I was standing when the monster died. I've seen instances where I've Blinked away before a Carpet began.

EDIT: Fonzie, in response to your AIM query about bodies, they work the same way in single-player as they do in multiplayer, with the exception of %loss of money in the stash on death. You only lose the money you currently have on the character, and bodies are restored based on which one dropped first (and therefore, which items you can equip; don't strength glitch). As long as you don't strength glitch, you can Save and Exit and get all of your stuff back.

I don't know what's going on on this page... what's all that crazy hacked stuff?

Anyhow, I just wanted to bump this to update you guys:

The Arreat Summit - News

LADDER RESET COMING SOON! Could be in a couple days! Along with 1.13 patch (which probably won't do anything, just kill hacks).

Get in any last playing that you want to before the ladder resets ^_^

Will anybody play the new ladder season?

[Markus. D]

I'm currently working on a Weaponless Melee Sin (Way of the X) in Median... and while this is the longer time I've had with an Assassin.
... I love her attack speed like THAT much it's crazy, it's faster than "psh psh psh" or "pshpshpsh" it's more like "pshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshshsh" !

I'm currently a small few quests away from Baal.

[captkrill]

I have a question about those items. Where, how, and can I make them? LOL, I don't like b.net much anymore, obviously those are not b.net items so how can I make something like that?

[Flying Mullet]

They're all part of a mod called MedianXL. It's not supported by blizzard and you can't play on b.net as it's technically a hack: Median XL - Diablo 2 Mods by Brother Laz

[captkrill]

Sweet, i never liked b.net. So this might be interesting. Also, the last time i tried installing D2 on my Vista machine it wouldn't run. Anyone been able to get it to run on vista, gone through all the admin ad compatibility and like that still no luck. Anyone have any suggestions?

[Chzn8r]

I just installed it and played it straight up. Haven't had any Vista-related issues.

Any comments on the potentially soon-happening ladder reset?

Run with compatibility for Windows XP Service Pack 2, run as admin... if those didn't work try disable visual themes.

If not!... >_<; do a backflip, combo it into a barrel roll (also make sure you've downloaded the newest update patch from the official website).

[captkrill]

Ive updated it to the current patch and still nothing.
