[coffin]

I am an aussie and still play D2 its good we can't not agree i play as my necro Justcarrot and my pally Justtesla they aren't anything special but i dont hear of any other players please for the love of all things unholy tell me that there are more people who play, what class you play and of course worst online experience

worst experience is while im playing now i've actually had to come here and post this to calm myself cause i cant find that damned dagger gidbinn in the 3rd act. Enough about me get to you.

Why did we need to know this? And just so you know, there have been plenty of Diablo 2 threads. Also, Punctuation and Capitalization are VERY nice things.

I still play occasionally, although admittedly it's on single player, not online. I mostly use trapsins and only every play hardcore (if online).

Most frustrating was definitely back in the day when there were invincible creatures in the catacombs in act 1 during one unfortunate patch. Also when you lagged and lost a level 45 hardcore character.

Judging by how Blizzard is still releasing fresh copies of their Diablo Battle Chest, I'd say the OP isn't the only one still playing.

 

[Fightgarr]

I have to say, I played through Diablo 2 and Lord of Destruction and came to the conclusion that the original was a better game overall. I'd play D2 online but my res has that particular port blocked for NO apparent reason and despite my requests (including giving them the port #s) they have not lifted the block. The only reason I can think of for this is that it could be a huge distraction from studies, but that wouldn't make sense because the WoW and Steam ports aren't blocked.

To be honest with you, I never really cared for 2. isn?t that bizarre? I Loved and still do Love the original of which I play on the playstation here and there, and computer. Me Buddy and I got these two computers set up for play, im usually the warrior and he gets the not so awesome caster wimpy. Now, its been like two years since I last played, but when I did. I usually went with a paladin or barb.

I will say this, I am withholding judgment on 3 until it comes out. It has the possibility to be great. I have a lot of faith in blizzard as far as that goes. Warcraft 1, Warcraft 2, Warcraft 2 expansion, warcraft 3, warcraft 3 expansion, world of warcraft, starcraft, the upcoming starcraft 2?! I think its safe to say "If it's from blizzard its going to be great"

ANYWAYS, the worst experience was finding Diablo in hell mode after which he promptly made things very uneasy for a couple hours. Something like four hours.

I've been playing some offline D2 on occasion these last few months. Still a great game. I have to say, my best class is a lit/ice sorceress. There is nothing more fun than throwing frozen orbs everywhere and knocking down swarms of guys. The nice thing about playing offline is you can use the character editors to start your character at a certain level so you can just rush your way though the first acts/difficulty levels.

I know I said it before on another thread, but the game that has been holding my attention lately is Sacred 2. It's got the interface of diablo and the gameplay style of Oblivion. There's a lot more to it than that, but I'm having so much fun with the game, I don't see myself getting Diablo 3 when it comes out.

I've always stuck to single player and Lan with a couple of friends. That whole thing petered out halfway through last year though. But I sometimes still feel the need to make a few loot runs to try for the final items of a couple of sets we tried to complete (immortal king armour and trang oul helmet mainly, but there're a few others).

urprobablyright:
It's all about the Zeal and Fanaticism.
The Zealot is one of the simplest builds ever and it remains one of my faves. It's tied with the Avenger and nudged out only by the improbably crappy Pikazon the insane Melee-Sorc and the uber Bonemancer.

 

[The Lawn]

I still whip out my old necromancer from time to time.

Haven't played in a while though.

 

[coffin]

good to see a few people still play Diablo 2 and awesome to see necro's in force still wanna get players with necro's and just have an army of skellies

 

[Akas]

Man, why does no one ever play the other build of necro? I'm either straight poisonmancer or p/bmancer, and it's always fun porting in and killing bonemancers before they can catch me.

dunno dude its sorta like why does nobody ever make a weapons specialist barb its either whirlwind or battlecry's

 

[Bored Tomatoe]

I just got it a few months ago and I have to say that it has held up fairly well. The combat is fun, and I like the classes, but the inventory system just...well...sucks.

 

[Eclectic Dreck]

I always favored the Assassin and I'd probably play it again if anybody I knew was willing to jump in as well. Took me a few tries before I found an assassin that was more than just a gimmicky barb/amazon hybrid and was truly effective. The first few times I dumped points into things that work great on normal (tiger strike, the poison skill and so on) only to find that both are utterly worthless once you get relatively far in the game.

 

[sequio]

I used to play D2 religiously until my bro sold my account for $130. I had hammerdin, chargadin, warcry barb (hilarious), fa/lf zon, 3 pure element sorcs, and golemancer. and a pk assassin but i never could get her right.

 

[whitebass09180]

my necro is lvl 31 but i didnt put points into anything specific, now i get through it all except diablo at the end. what does a necro use to kill him ?

 

[KaZZaP]

My favorite class in that game was an Elemental Druid, I had this sick 7 to all ele skills (yes that's right 7) hammer and the spam fest you could pump out with them was insane.

 

[SinisterDeath]

Assassin. Best, and most overated class in that game. You just have to know how to play it.
Traps + Synergy + Clone = pwnage.

Anyways, you did mention something about worste experience... That would have to be dieing in a very bad place, and being to stuburn to just exit, recover corpse the one way with the xp hit, instead of taking 60 xp/gold hits.

I was saving up something like 10billion gold in that game to repair a very nice weapon.... I was about 10k short of my goal.. after I finished trying to recieve my corpse (never did, server crashed) I had roughly 20k gold in my bank left.

 

[Valiance]

All my characters expired a long time ago. Even though you can go from 1-90 in a day online, I just have no incentive to play.

I wish I sold my account.
