Plenty of people play this still. There's the online community, which is pretty damn big for a game that is now nearly nineteen years old, and there are a lot of single-player communities and people playing on private servers. There's also a rather sizable speedrunning community.

I have a 72 Hammerdin and Meteorb Sorc. I feel like if anything touches me on either character I die instantly in Hell. I have Resistances near-max and I'm just trying to find good socket armors to put Smoke and Treachery rune words in.
What other armor should I be working on to not die all the time? Guides aren't much help because they all assume that you're willing to spend a few weeks doing 1000 Meph runs every day or that you can just buy shit off Battle.net or the diablo 2 trade forum thingo.

Been farming NM Andy/Meph/Diablo/Baal on the sorc with 250% MF and doing Hell Mausoleum/Countess farm with my Hammerdin but I cant give him much MF without him just insta-dying to archers.

If you get into start-of-ladder levelling party then they will generally follow the same guideline with just a few caveats:
>have to get to Cain first somehow
>Cows are not available obviously, so you stay in Tombs or just keep questing past level 20
>no one to kill ancients but if you have a balanced party then you can probably speedrun everything at that point
>baalruns are always the best for XP
Those are simply the best levelling zones, and that's what Anon asked for. If I'm questing through the game, then I'm not going to stick around in one place much either if it isn't profitable.
Like, in Single Player Normal, if you have any decent build, you can probably /p8 through those areas for massive XP gains by yourself. Or just keep playing the game, quest, and do content.

>> No.5280730

>>5280516
Do you have max block, and, in case of Pally, are invested into your Holy Shield? On Sorc it might not be such a big deal.
If your resistances are close to maxed out I'm not sure if Treachery is going to be of much help, since its' entire point is a Fade proc.
Otherwise against archer packs I'd recommend you to try and cast spells into the edge of the screen, turn off your Run button as it cuts your defense horribly while running, and bait the archers into following you behind corners while unleashing fiery death ("pre-firing" so to speak) beforehand. Use Vigor to outmaneuver enemy packs, too, you presumably have it pumped up.
Do you have a mercenary? Focus on getting him decent equipment first, Smoke or Stone armor would go a long way towards him not dying (and thus being a good blocker) and an Obedience or Insight thresher will make him a decent damage dealer no matter what, runes are farmable at this point from Countess.

This. Ever since experiencing PlugY I can't go back.
Not that I ever played Diablo 2 online anyway. Most people I know never played it online either because they pirated it, internet didn't exist or was too slow back in the day or because of hackers/dupers.
I've played LAN a few times with friends using Hamachi or another VPN. Ended up stopping cuz "That guy" in our friends group for some reason hated the idea of farming bosses with MF gear. As far as he was concerned, you're only allowed to kill each boss once, any more was "cheating" according to him.
Also had another guy who would just hang back and spend all his time picking up items/gold instead of helping us kill mobs.

>Any other fun budget builds that actually work in hell?
Here's my usual recommendation list, one per every class:
>Amazon
If the regular Lightning Fury Java a k a The Legendary Cracked Javelin Fighter doesn't suit you then try the FA/LF hybrid where you get to use both the bow and the javelin. Two elements, lots of weapon switching, fun, untwinkable.
>Barbarian
Two-handed Berserker barbarian. Level as Double Swing->Frenzy until like level 30-40, then respec. You're still supremely tanky even with 0 Defense due to maxing out Howl and possibly a few hard points in War Cry. You also hit single-target like a truck. Get a Bonesnap and snap some bones. Any Cruel weapon will work great here, too.
>Assassin
Kicker with Death Sentry support to get some AoE. Gamble for Greaves until you make it.
>Sorceress
Pick any two elements and mix and match. Firewall is surprisingly effective even if gimmicky and hard to use, CL is a solid companion to the Frozen Orb, and there's a lot of room to experiment.
>Paladin
Holy Shock Zealot a k a Tesladin. Crushes Nightmare with any weapon, in Hell you can easily support this build with affordable RWs (your ultimate goal if nothing better drops is probably a Crescent Moon RW in a Phase Blade base).
>Druid
Regular Windy Druid works very well. If you find a Ribcracker, consider a Fury Werewolf.
>Necro
As you noted, obvious choice. Rule of thumb for Necro is that pretty much anything works if you support it with Corpse Explosion because ultimately every Necro build is about generating the CE chain reaction.

I play these games a lot. For the last year or so I've been slowly building up a hardcore SP untwinked javazon (pic related).

>>5293965
You might already know this, but I'm going to repeat it anyway for those that don't.

Bone Armor is a great skill on hardcore. It doesn't block everything, but it blocks the main non-elemental threats and plays an especially important role for untwinked characters who don't have access to DR% and are therefore the most susceptible to being killed by things that deal physical damage.

The peculiar thing about Bone Armor is that its synergies provide an integer benefit (as opposed to percentage-based) and the benefit is larger than what you get for directly investing in the skill. What this means is that you can put points into bone prison and end up with a decent bone prison AND a better bone armor than you could get from investing in the skill itself. Bone prison is rather useful for the aforementioned cold archers with fana/might. It's also a synergy for bone spear, which can come in handy when you're trying to make minions.

On that note, I wouldn't run meph with a summoner, especially if you're playing on SP. Necromancers are horribly inefficient at killing act bosses. However, they're pretty good at a lot of the level 85 areas because they don't need to worry about immunes. Just get some decent resists and run the pit. If you're concerned about archers, get max block.

>> No.5294014

Once you know how dolls work it's fairly easy to avoid being killed by them.

First of all, if you kill them in one hit the explosion does no damage. Second, because they're so fast they're easy to kite - have your merc kill them. If you're on a floor with dolls and you don't have to kill them (aka you're not doing baal), you should hold down alt while moving to avoid accidentally targeting them. It's also just generally a good idea on hardcore to not have a ranged attack on your left click so as to avoid accidentally triggering death explosions. If for some reason you absolutely must kill them, you should make sure that you are stationary and not running when the death explosion occurs so that you have the best chance to block/avoid the attack. However, you should basically never stand in range of the death explosion because the damage is highly variable, especially if you have no DR.

But the shout is also physical damage.
What you want in this highly unlikely scenario is a weapon with multi-elemental damage, like a Lawbringer or Baranar's Star.

Can I even play this on windows 10? Also 1.13 or 1.14?

Yes. Depends if you want to use plugy or not.

I literally just learned what plugy was a couple of hours ago, but not really interested. I haven't play Diablo II in over 10 years so not sure what to do now that I want to play it again, I even lost my original disc box so I'm trying to figure out things right now so I can play it again. I'm surprised that almost 20 years later and the game is still XP exclusive.

>the game is still XP exclusive.
runs fine on 7/10 etc. I'd just buy it and the expac from the blizzard store, quite cheap and doesn't require you to fuck around with the settings for half an hour to get it to work.

just pirate it like everyone else has, online play is overrated.
the game runs on any operating system fine, my dude.
The PlugY shared stash is nice, plus little things like access to Ubers, Diablo clone and Ladder-only runewords that are normally battle.net only.
Also check out D2SE, useful launcher that lets you open any version of the game you want on the fly.

So while I'm not interested in the online game, I do want to multiplayer for multiple reasons, I can still do that with the pirate game right?

I think I already figure out everything I need to know to start playing again, just 1 last question, if by any mistake I end up getting banned from Battlenet, that won't affect any of my Single Player experience right? I don't really want to bother with plugy but I do might want to use a mod I found to be able to use Ladder-only runewords.

I have a save in Diablo but haven't played for couple of months. Belzebup mod is the best thing since sliced bread. 60 fps and shit.

Use Belzebup mod. Works without any fucking issue. It adds some stuff but it's cool and not bloated.

Thanks bro, I'm ready to go now.
>>5302606
Bro, I'm already throwing smoke from my head for the main stuff, I tried to check this plugy thing but I just don't get it, create new folders, move shit to specific folders, configure a bunch of shit, have 3 different games to make it work, the Hero Editor not working at all, plus like you said, it only benefit would be the infinite stash and is not worth it, maybe in the future but right now I just want the original experience like when I was 12 plus the new stuff that appeared since the 1.10 version.

>> No.5302737

>>5302643
What are you on? It would be worth it even if it only added infinite stash.
Not only that, there's the shared stash, unlimited re-speccing, expanded multi-page character stat screen, item levels displayed, the already mentioned enabling of ladder-only runewords and events, etc. That's such a big collection of quality-of-life tweaks that you won't want to settle for the original experience once you've played it with plugy.
Go back to read the instructions and follow them. It's not really that complicated to install.

Some people can't get 1.13 to run. If you're not one of those people, use 1.13. It allows you to use a lot of mods that don't work on 1.14. It also works more smoothly with the glide wrapper, which is the best way to play Diablo 2 fullscreen.

Can I still play standard diablo 2 if I wish without having to uninstall a bunch of shit?
Do I have to be on the most recent Diablo 2 patch?
