The most stupid thing you have done in d2

Re: The most stupid thing you have done in d2

besides selling some good stuff cheap, made a "Call to Arms" in ladder with a Scourge (elite flail with 125str/77dex req) but does 11-310 dmg lol.

still use it, for Battle Order of course.....

transfer a 800def ethereal armor by throwing it on the ground. didnt know its the fastest item to vanish after being left on the ground.
 
Re: The most stupid thing you have done in d2

i've done a lot of dumb things when i was younger ("HEY DROP ALL YOUR ITEMS THEN PRESS ALT F4"), but recently i made a hoto without checking the runeword first. i now have a godly vex ko pul thul flail.

lol, i remember a friend making an insight right in my face, only to say "man it didnt work". he had the order right but he made it in a spear... brilliant!

i'm sure at least one person did that with infinity... now that would suck.

i made a infinity in a mancatcher, then saw the gemmed mancatcher and realised it wasnt a polearm
 
Re: The most stupid thing you have done in d2

i'm pretty good at making a perm mule game on normal, then realizing i can tweak my characters resistances, so i go to hell to see what they are with the hell penalty. i take some charms off that i don't need, throw them on the ground, then leave the game thinking it was the normal game. bye bye charms.
 
Re: The most stupid thing you have done in d2

When 1.10 came out, and i realized partial set bonuses where added, i thought about re-collecting all set items (which i eventually did). To avoid mixing 1.09 and 1.10 set items, I deleted all my mules with 1.09 sets items. In the process i've also deleted (by mistake ofc) some of my sc's. gg 5% frw sc's.
 
Re: The most stupid thing you have done in d2

I tried to make a insight runeword with a spear. wasted those runes..


This bad story JUST happened to me :(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
I got a tal armor on US east for only 2 d keys and like 4 sol runes.. I was SO happy!.. I waited for almost a week for my buddy to get on so I could xfer it to my sorc. I was SO looking forward to it. I get the tal armor on my sorc, and I go to charsi to sell my old armor to get rid of it. I guess I ended up selling my tal armor to charsi without realizing it.. and then logged out. Only a few minutes later when I didn't notice it on the ground did I hunt all my freaking chars and couldn't find it.. and it was too late to go back to charsi to see if she still had it. I am so bummed. My MOST valuable single item pissed down to charsi.. you'd think I wouldn't be so dumb to sell the item that I was drolling for a week to get on my sorc. I hate myself now. I never thought I would get so worked up over a game.
 
Re: The most stupid thing you have done in d2

Lets turn it around, the most stupid thing I've seen another player do. In the beginning of the last ladder climb, I made a game 'N fire skiller O Um' (Note, this was maybe 2-3 weeks into the ladder) Some guy comes in and gives me a 44 Life fire skiller vs my um.

:)
 
Re: The most stupid thing you have done in d2

I let a self found .08 Valk Wing expire back in early .09. While not appearing so stupid then, legit .08 Valk Wings are worth a ton now. I also let a pair of .08 Saracens expire at the same time, which probably have some value for the chance to cast Amp.

In a move that was more immediately realized as stupid I socketed a Que Hagens with a pdia shortly after the Expansion pack came out, thinking I was going to get +19 res all for some reason.

I had several SoJs without level reqs + other uniques without lvlreqs also, which got expired. (No lvl-req is pre-lod)

same thing with another item happened to me.

in a game a guy with around 50 lvl sorc sold me a "20life/11cold res SC" for 2 AMN runes.

maybe this item (and your item in your case) was generated by a cheat that would ban permanently from bnet so those guys are selling so cheap, just letting item go? i dont know if the charm poofed cause dont have it.


 
Re: The most stupid thing you have done in d2

That charm may be a dupe, but even though people know its a dupe they will not sell it so cheap. So, most likely, that is a legit charm. The guy just didnt know the value, he just wanted to make some Spirit rws and lacked the amns.
 
Re: The most stupid thing you have done in d2

Keep in mind all of this is in Hardcore, US East Ladder.

(1.) Going up against the Summoner in Normal -- but in an 8 player game -- with a Level 12 Necromancer with "zero" Cold Resist. Holy Ice Cubes, Batman! :surprise:

(2.) Accepting a TP to the Den of Evil from a "friendly" Level 80 Wind Druid who one second later bragged about "my hax give me 7.5K dmg per nado, noob". :doh:

Fortunately both of these were a couple of years ago. I'm now older and much wiser.

Re: The most stupid thing you have done in d2

I've done some of these, although I'm always poor so the mistakes don't turn out so bad, like ort-eth armor (got stealth and zephyr confused). And then there's the time I decided to make a fire golem necro to kill stuff by constantly recasting fire golem. For some reason, I though the dmg was proportional to its life, but it was only after noticing it was taking a long time to kill stuff did it occur to me to ask on this forum. I'm actually still surprised I managed to get him to the beginning of hell.
 
Re: The most stupid thing you have done in d2

I've done quite a few stupdities, but I don't remember all of them. These are a few I do remember:

- During my first week of play I refused a trade for a 10/10 Assa torch that I found on the ground in a pub game for 10 Ists with some collector. I had no idea what Ists were anyway.
- I accidently sold my perfect Fortitude Sacred Armor to Lazruk.
- I lost 97 HRs in a stupid scam. Lesson learned: never trust ANY bnet player.

I'll update this if I recall more stupidities... :jig:
 
Re: The most stupid thing you have done in d2

Ive wasted an imbue quest on a charsi leg thinking that it will become a bugged leg and make me invisible. Of course nothing happened and I lost an imbue quest :scratchchin: ( at the time this scam was running wild on BNET)

I've thought I'd be very smart and buy 100 life armors (in 1.10) and sell them for insane amounts! Ultimately I got one with 100 life!! and after perming my game for 5minutes(waited 10mins in fact) muled it and LARZUKED IT!!

OMFG!@!# 1socket :( Lesson: Magical items will only get one socket :coffee:

This ladder while rolling spirits for 35 FCR i socked my already unsocked spirit with a HEL rune and had to re-hel it to remove that HEL!
