Related to my previous post about Husbands and Dads playing Diablo 2

Dear @ Everyone: I want to first thank you all for the great vibes in your answers on my previous post about Dads and Husbands who are playing Diablo 2, while managing to be good husbands, good dads, and good adults in general:

I think this kind of energy deserves to have his own space to let the vibes grow and be shared. According to the answers here, there is many people that will like to play with other husbands and dads, knowing that is totally fine if they cannot complete the run, or even commit for a long play. So I want to propose something:

>> What about if when anyone of us is able to play, we create a Diablo 2 game in the Project Diablo 2 servers and we name the game something like:

[Hubbies/Dads] First Act...
[Hubbies/Dads] Level 1...
[Hubbies/Dads] Killing Baal...
[Hubbies/Dads] Warrior Lvl 5...

or something around these lines...

This way we will have our secret code to:

a). Know that the game is from someone from this post
b). Is a game designed for us that we have to deal with adulthood and responsibilities

Does it sounds like a solution? Or do you think there is a better way to connect between us?

>> Also, for the people using Discord, we can post like: "Hey, about to start a [Hubbies/Dads] Act 2, who wanna join?".

I will create my first games this week, using the [Hubbies/Dads] on the name of my games, and also posting on the Project Diablo 2 Discord before creating the game.

--------

As I am located in France, and I will create a Multiplayer Character for the first time in level 1... I know my time-zone and the level of my character will sadly not adapt to all the people here... But, there is still the evidence here that many people will be actually happy to play and connect with other people.

This is why, I think something as have a code for the name, can let anyone here create a game, and the other people recognise the code-name [Hubbies/Dads] and join if the level and Time-Zone of the game matches their possibilities.

I hope this make sense, and even if is not forever... we can enjoy it as much as we can.

Skull Mangler Part Deux

Posted a crafted zerker the other day & I was pissy the piece only gave me one socket. Just crafted this one - and it's got the same name. Bit weird. Time to mangle some skulls I guess.

But any help on if this is any good would be greatly appreciated

HS Sacrifice Question SSF

Recently found a StormSpire which had a lovely slam(6 os) and i had a light sabre with 4os so i figured it's worth giving a whirl. It's ssf so gear far from optimized, don't have a Griffon but using a decent Kira's. 1 skill guardian etc. Only have 5 offensive skillers. My question though is about the sacrifice damage. In DarkHumility's video, his sac damage is 40k. I followed the guide as close as possible, but the sac damage is only 16k. The skillers and lightning damage and pen don't scale that damage so I'm wondering why my damage for that skill is 1/3 of his when the damage isn't scaled. Looks like the synergies that are scaling are all the HS ones.

Best bow I have found - SP

This is the best bow I have found throughout my entire PD2 career lol, and it's in sp. A bit unfortunate it is in the lowest average damage base, but damn this looks kinda hot... As soon as I got my first puzzle piece, I immediately blind piece and slammed it..

Base ed was 482, piece 4os + ed/itd slam

I always played online, and started playing sp a couple of days ago, and shit is addicting as fk. Every single upgrade feels massive and rewarding.

I guess time to start a zon!?

Lfg to play d2 for the first time

Hey guys, I'm a big fan of the diablo series so I decided to give pd2 a shot since I've heard it's amazing.

Context: first started playing Diablo 3(eternal collection on PS4 pro) with my dad in 2017 and we bought Diablo 4 6 hours before release(biggest waste of money for buggy ahh early access that barely worked) and I have been playing on and off for a while.

My fav class is Necro and I will probably make a Necro here too. Also honest talk about the current ones I have played: Diablo 3 has a special place in my heart and I can't not love it. D4 has pretty good gameplay that I have enjoyed but I genuinely hate all the battlepass bs and how every season is a cash grab.

note: this is the first time I'm playing so I'll try to refrain from using guides and builds and kinda figure shit out as I go to actually enjoy the game

Here is my discord if anyone is interested: c0dedsword

Could the community get behind making it possible to up-cube runes in a more common sense way?

It's really annoying when you have 364 Dols, 318 Hels, 300 Io's, 223 Lum's, then 4 Ko's, 4 Fals, 2 Lems, 6 Puls, an Um, 2 Mals, an Ist, 2 Guls, 2 Vex, 1 Ohm, 2 Los, 1 Sur ... but no jahs or bers. Then you have 1 cham. And no zods.

It's such a hassle cubing that many runes that ill just wait til I find them.

If ever. Ive only ever found 1 zod in my 20 years of playing so lets hope RNG agrees that it is my time

I can understand maybe not allowing us to cube 50 at once but I mean maybe at least 15?

I just cant bring myself to sit that long clicking and holding shift and going back and forth to and from my cube and currency stash.

This thing is going to taunt me for a long, long time (SP)

Recently got back into SP PD2. I created a Duriel farming sorc and found Eth Gavel that rolled decent enough. Landed the god corrupt, but I can't do anything with it. It just sits in my stash... menacingly. I found one Ohm so far, and used it to make a CTA.

Also quick question
If I do manage to find a Zod, should I up this? Or is it better to have the higher min damage?
Probably WW or leap Barb.

Trend regarding nerfs

Hey all. I'm new to PD2 and am really enjoying it. Started 3ish weeks ago and have 6 Level 80+ characters that can all do map in varying capacities.

What I'm wondering is... historically, what has been the tendency regarding nerfs to characters / skills / etc...

WW Barb has been a blast and feels really great as a league starter, so I'm hoping it will be viable again next league but I also know it's pretty popular. If this was Path of Exile, that would put it in the crosshairs for a nerf.

So I'm wondering, does this mod have a similar philosophy? Or is it likely that WW remains powerful next season, too?

Do over on the piece please

Been looking for a good 1 hander. Haven't seen anything super exciting on trade site recently so thought I'd use my meagre accumulation of mats to craft a bit. Made this then pieced 1 socket.

Guys, I've just had my 2nd Zod rune drop on SSF, what should I do with it?!? The first one I had already planned on using it for a Ferocity helm for a diff char than what I'm currently playing as. (Currently my best geared main char is a fury druid)

Need SSF build recommendations

My internet is out and a technician can’t get here for a week so I figured now is a good time to try SSF offline. I’m not sure what to play though. My focus will definitely be mapping but I’d like to try bossing as well. Is there something I could put together ssf that may not be amazing at everything but at the least well rounded? Any written guide/link would also be greatly appreciated.

[Release] Improved Crafters Patch for S13 Singleplayer

There has been a lot of talk about crafters league recently to pass some time before the next ladder season. So I threw together a patch for SP.
It has some key differences; you can now re-craft on the same crafting base, crafting materials are more accessible, affix frequencies have been adjusted to make good crafts much more common and a bunch of QoL recipes have been added to make getting your skillers and specific torch much more reliable.
I chose to keep Runewords enabled since not having access to Fanaticism/Conviction kills a lot of builds and HR drops retain some meaning.

what is a sorceress skill?

help me identify the sorc skill that looks like a swirling gray cloud of dust or fog flying one after another towards the opponent - I can't find it anywhere and I see that a lot of sorcs are using it this season - I saw it on baslruns even on hell - I haven't seen it in previous seasons...
