i started playing my fav character, ww baba on ps4, its so much fun with a controller, right now my ww baba is making his way through nightmare, untwinked with a low damage roll ribcracker, badass...

any ps4 players pls add me.
 
Hi there, I remember your name!

I'm not that much of a barb player when still lacking resources, being on single player. The best weapon I could come up with is probably the Crescent Moon runeword and that would use up the highest rune I've found so far, or a 2 socket Tomb Reaver. However, once I've made enough progress, I will probably start a WW or frenzy barb!

Halciet, now that's an OLD name.

@Uncle_Mike is around somewhere. If by Ash you mean either Bad Ash or Ash Housewares, they are around too. BA kind of vanished, Housewares registered here but hasn't been seen recently.

Indeed i was.
 
Rik, I still remember your guide. As a matter of fact my main character for D2R online play is a Hone Sundan barb that has studied your teachings. Enjoy this picture from today's runs.

Yeah mine is ethereal 194%. I probably won't find anything better, but you never know. I was solo whirling around the WSK last night and a unique ring popped off a unique rancid defiler in level 3. I was farting around trying to take a good looking screenshot, then I heard *ding* and I was like, "please anything but another f'n manald or nagel"

I finally made a Duress, but since my resists are not max'd out yet, I swap back and forth with my merc's Treachery to get that fade going. In D2R it's funny looking when my barb fades. His armor is very translucent and his Arreat's kind of makes it look like he has just big ears.

Yeah I don't know how any features work yet either. I'm lucky I figured out how to post images. I try and look through the trade threads but there's so many that it's daunting.

It's slowly coming back.

Ok my barbie friends, hold your breath. I have a new magic find setup for my online hone sundan barb. When he horks, he horks hard.

Hi guys! Hi Krischan!

I was pretty active on dii forums around 2009, especially in EuScL. Amazing to see so many familiar nicks here a decade later!

Playing on PC since release. My sorc is equipped well enough to farm keys, now I just need a second character that can use them. My WW barb just reached act 3 hell yesterday and found an eth 15%ED BB, so he's getting an Oath tonight, hopefully with a decent damage roll. 🤞
