    Mat / Pat / Guardian Thread

    Thank you for maintaining this list. It is amazing when considering "what sort of X should I play", or to find analysis/comments on certain builds. The list is missing my second mat/pat, Pjurhvad the Prosperous.

    Matriarch Claws - 3366 ED Dragon Claw Assassin

    In addition to little birds point (dual mosaic gives 100% chance to not consume the charge), I would like to point out some additional things. They also changed charge-ups so you get 100% chance to hit with a finisher if you have charges (not 95%. 100%). With mosaic, that means only the initial...

    Seven Self-reliant Saviours of Sanctuary - Kartongen's untwinked sept

    I just wanna highlight this, for any potential new player etc. Both battle cry and taunt are amazing skills, even at one point. Battlecry can help so much with hitting things (one point cuts enemy defence by 50%), and taunt is AMAZING against ranged attackers and especially spawners/resurectors...

    Anything Goes D2 Lounge!

    Yeah. I think I got as excited as you by the idea, and had to look it up. :p

    Anything Goes D2 Lounge!

    "Applied idependently of freezelength and coldlength[...]" ~Amazon Basin So I think it would retain the duration of the freeze target (i.e. same as normal attack), and have them chilled some time after that (if freeze duration < cold duration).

    SPF Goals & Objectives for 2024

    Yeah, 4.1. is troublesome. I feel travincal should be the best place to get results for a combo if 4.1 and 2, but I cant get my sorc to kill them efficiently. Might need a map with better clustering. Definitely need to look into her gear some more as well.

    Seven Self-reliant Saviours of Sanctuary - Kartongen's untwinked sept

    Kaha have tried his darling Savage Poleaxe of Swiftness (see earlier post). It was decent fun though act 3 and 4, started to dull a little in act 5. Melee single target attacks might not be my favourite thing, but hopefully the ridiculous damage of a beefed up berserk can change my mind. Tried...

    INTRO THREAD - Bearzin

    Nice to hear some details. Sorc was my second favorite, after Amazon, since long. I think sorc is a bit easier than the rest, at least as a new player, since she is less reliant on gear imo. Yes, please do post your goals. It is always interesting to see what others aim for (and seem to enjoy).

    SPF Goals & Objectives for 2024

    Many of my previous goals are unmet. An unfortunate consequence of me loosing interest (explained in my reintroduction) and ghosting you all. Sorry about that. So my main goal of this year: Stay engaged in this amazing forum, or at least announce if I am taking a break. My further goals...

    INTRO THREAD - Bearzin

    Welcome Bearzin. If you like singleplayer D2(R), this is the place to be. Awesme community and lots of great info on how the game works. What characters have you played so far, and do you have any favorites?

    Guardian Faith_FULL: Spearazon

    Well done Dave, and thanks for the write-up. How much did you end up using fend vs jab? Been tempted by spearzons for long, but never got around to it.

    Umbani was found having only Baal left to beat in normal. He cruised through the WSK at P8. Since I forgot to lower it for Baal, he took quite a long time, but he fell. Drops were very unsatisfying.

    Re-introducing Kartongen

    Thanks you yoo. And also, oww! Should have remembered to don shinguards. Yeah, I will probably turn to D2R eventually. I am just an old miser, and it takes me some time to come around. I am also miffed about the "definately no changes" promise being broken. I knew it would, but I had a small...

    Amazing accomplishment, and a very interesting write-up. I hope your arm will heal well, so we can see more.

    Re-introducing Kartongen

    Hello. I am back. I may be a relatively familiar face for some of you. For the rest and/or the curious, my original introduction thread found here. I have a tendency to go fully crazy on D2, followed by periods of less interest. Since I love this forum so much, and the community here, I wanted...

    2022 Spring RFL Sign Up and Running Thread: Round 3 (Areas)

    Just hit the 5 h mark. Runeluck is very poor, but it seems bow-luck is where it is at for me. Apart from the 14ed +3 skill mat bow I now also own a 12% ed 4 oS Blade bow. (And a 15%ed 3skill stagbow, thought I am not sure how useful that will be. Maybe for twinking?)

    2022 Spring RFL Sign Up and Running Thread: Round 3 (Areas)

    Just shy of 3 h in so far. Both have low amount of time right now, and other things pulling my interests. But I am trying to put in some hours at least. Rune luck is horrible, but when you are dirt poor alot of things can make you excited.

    2022 Spring RFL Sign Up and Running Thread: Round 3 (Areas)

    I considered joining for round 1 and 2, but could not get that spark. AoE2DE has me sucked in hard (with the very few hours I have per week). But I will give it a go for round 3. I will be running my /players 1 only, untwinked Fishyzon aiming for the top 95%. Sign Up Please state IF you are...

    Seven Self-reliant Saviours of Sanctuary - Kartongen's untwinked sept

    After Kaha, Meskhenet pushed her way through jungles, hell, tundras and some plains, catching up with Mihua at the NM countess. It was a fairly uneventful thing, apart from Ormus/Jamella/Malah becoming filthy rich on their mana potion hussle. While Mihua had luck finding sorceress items (Tals...
