    Tournaments: How to increase participation?

    I started playing D2 in 2001 and found the SPF in 2007 or 2008. The SPF and tournaments were great friends of mine in 2008-2010, just after grad school when I was unemployed. Then, once I found a job, I popped into the SPF a few times, but I got tired of hacking together the ability to play on...

    GoMule for D2 Resurrected

    In my install, in Windows 10, D2 characters are in User/Saved Games/Diablo II Resurrected/ (so, for me, jamesixgun/Saved Games/Diablo II Resurrected/ Surf there from GoMule's open Character dialog and it'll see the files.

    GoMule for D2 Resurrected

    Thanks so much for returning to GoMule, @silospen! I'm not sure if it's been reported... right-click 'Remove from Project' and Backspace does not work for Shared Stashes. Even after moving the shared stash out of the Save folder, GoMule still refuses to remove it; closing and reopening also...

    Is the Andariel bug still present? Are there any changes to it?

    I had a Frost Zealot parked in D2L A2 because I forgot to bug Andy. I pushed him into D2R and did a handful of Andy runs. got a Dimoak's Hew for the mercenary :yawn: but she didn't drop money a single time... If I recall, if she drops gold, she's not "bugged," so the lack of gold drops means, I...

    Random Tournament 2021 D2R edition!

    I keep chippy gems for no good reason... I'll usually put ruby/emerald/ruby in the rogue bow; lately I've switched to sapphire/emerald/sapphire for cold rogues. I'll sometimes put a couple of chipped diamonds in an early shield. But my softcore stash has hundreds of chipped gems in it. They're...

    Random Tournament 2021 D2R edition!

    And... Deeds to p/1 Blood Raven. level 2 Frost nova did not much; short staff with 1-5 fire damage did less. Most everything else fell just fine, if slowly, at p/8. If I try again (same build, I think... maybe switch to 66/31 though), I'll probably hit vitality a bit harder and maybe skip the...

    Random Tournament 2021 D2R edition!

    Wow... short staffs loose durability fast at p/8. Two repairs just to clear the Blood Moor and Den of Evil. Hana didn't like her name, and decided to run as Devi. She's currently chilling at the Cold Plains, level 6, with one point in Frost Nova (which probably slays at p/1-3, but not so much at...

    Gah. I didn't realize that either... Apologies. Set 67: 6 - Battle Cry, 15 - Throwing Mastery, 26 - Leap Attack Gloves Brandistock (apologies)

    Random Tournament 2021 D2R edition!

    ooo! Nice! The War Axe is largely useless, but a large shield is nice and light and I've always wondered about a Firewall sorc... As I'm unlikely to last long, I'll start with set 66 as permanent and set 78 for normal... hopefully I can beat things to death with the short staff until Nova, then...

    Random Tournament 2021 D2R edition!

    Hey Hey @coju I'll roll you one... And I'm in too, I guess. Would you (or someone) roll me a sorceress or an assassin (flip a coin)? Edit: @coju again here's your roll, with my apologies. Helm - 9 Circlet Armor - 2 Hard Leather, Studded Leather, Chain Mail, Plate Mail, Ancient Armor Shield -...

    Optimal Untwinked Larzuk

    My first-ever use came just a couple of days ago... I picked up a white Long Sword in the Normal Cows run with my Orballer and had Larzuk socket it. Now level 46 in A1Nightmare with a Spirit sword in hand. Good times. (Of course, I picked up a 4os long sword in the Blood Moor on the way to...

    Tournament: Set/Unique Worshippers 2017

    Tough luck, Charlo. Bethany went back and cleaned out The Cave. It was easy enough and even Cold Crow (the bane of so many previous characters) went by with ease. After that, she cleaned out the Dark Wood, and received her second s/u for her trouble, a Cleglaw's shield from a skeleton archer...

    Tournament: Set/Unique Worshippers 2017

    Well, I made some time to play, and made some decent progress: cleared the Cold Plains and Killed Blood Raven, but forgot the Cave (I'll try to go back tonight and clear that, but I might just skip it); cleared Stony Field and Underground Passage, then ran for the Scroll and rescued Cain. The...

    Tournament: Set/Unique Worshippers 2017

    Well, I started a Charged Bolt/Frozen Orb sorceress named Bethany over the weekend, and she may as well participate in this. I don't expect her to make it to far, but who knows. She cleared out the Den and fetched the Cold Plains waypoint. Expect slow progress. No finds, no NDEs. Also no screens.

    Welcome! I watch MrLamma and quite enjoy his speed running and commentary, and I'm a bit envious of the [unnamed mod] he uses, though GoMule is plenty good enough for me. I've learned a good bit from his running, but could also tell him a few things, largely thanks to reading around here. I...

    The Spear-Person Challenge

    RIP Pokey and Meghan. Deeds to Radament and a pack of extra fast horror archers. Between the poison and the 5 arrows per second, Pokey put up a valiant effort, but drank through his whole belt just trying to escape the room and didn't quite make it. Oh well. SC anyway, so I think a respec and...
