The Phrozen Keep

Just got a Null rune from the Cow King in hell. Now I wonder what to do with it as I'm far away from having two crystals.

Set items never have variable stats AFAIK.

Ohm, Zod, Ral, Ort, Thul are not abbreviations, these are names of runes. "PSkull" means Perfect Skull.

Rare + rune Tal r07 + Ral r08 + Ort r09 + El r01 -> Uniq

Any idea why this recipe doesn't work with a rare spiderweb sash? It worked with a war hat, but also didn't work with a war belt.

TIA

btw: The necromancer "TheWildBunch", first character ever to become Guardian on this server, died yesterday. His deeds will not be forgotten.

Your server is great, JEBs! Keep up the good work.

Can someone tell me the exact way to update my 1.09 version up to 1.10 (step by step) First you have reconfig your Diablo to run LoD. That means in most cases to copy your LoD d2patch.mpq (plus the respective dll's) to your Diablo folder. Then connect to the internet. Start Diablo. Click on 'Multip...

Are you sure, you are on the D2Maniacs' server? You have to take the right gateway before connecting to the server.

If you are on this server, did you create an account? If you did, do you see the realm AR in the upper right corner?

Okay, now I've been there myself and I had the same problem as G-Factor. The answer is: Poison damage. If Baal is poisoned he cannot regenerate life. For the summoner there are two ways to deal out poison damage: 1. Poison nova, and 2. bring a skel mage with poison damage missile (the green one).

Well, Baal is not easy for the Necromancer in LoD, as well. I'd suggest to revive some council members, they are quite effective with their hydras against baal. If you can, give your merc crushing blow. This is a fine feature against baal.

You can get the gateway editor from the D2Maniacs site:

You can also find another closed server for AR 1.10 here.

About the helm: You can't make more sockets in an item than the item class allows. A leather cap for example won't get more than two sockets no matter how hard you try. ;) See the Arreat Summit for max sockets --> http://www.battle.net/diablo2exp/items/ About the distribution of points: Are all skil...

I will update my runeword site as soon as I start to play 2.21b. That means that I'm wait for JEBs running 2.21b on the D2maniacs server. No single player for me, plz.

btw, JEBs: I'd really appreciate if you deleted all existing 2.20 chars for the new version. I - and I know that many other players also do - love to start a new version from scratch.

Hmm, I don't know much about Macs, but I think there must be any file on your mac where the specific information about your preferred gateways - e.g. useast@battle.net - are saved. If you could find this file just replace *.battle.net with bnetd.shbe.net and you're done.

Sorry, if that sounds naive.

One more question comes to my mind: IIRC there are more than just the Receiver's Dagger to be bought @ Asheara's, but what do these other daggers do? Are they of any use at all?

Hey, this is nice piece of info, IronSigil. I've also been testing around in SP to find out what Etherseeking glass produces what but I stopped cause I couldn't find any causalities. Obviously I gave up too early. ;) @GubbinZ There is no "economy" on JEB's server, at least not in HC. I've never witn...

About the spoiler docs: As SiC 2.20 is running on JEB's server I was never seduced to read any other document than spoiler doc 2.20. :) And just for completion: I used this recipe to socket Mavina's: Four to Six Sockets - Mechanist’s Weird + perfect gem + weapon or armor = 5-socket version of item P...

Shame on me, I missed the dru test. Anyway. As I would rather die than not make it into the credits here are my results: #2 - Crashes my game. Unhandled blahblah. Same as with the miserable one. #4 - same. Stopping test. Hmm, what's wrong? Have I got to change any dll's? ATM I'm only using the d2gam...

Actually the spoiler document does have a separate entry for set item socketing under the socketing section. That section is actually VERY explicit as to what recipes apply to what items and what number of sockets they are supposed to grant to each kind. Unless somehow I put the wrong spoiler doc i...

Yes, the 1.09B dll's work fine on JEBs' server. All cast on strike, on attack, on being struck and so on work.

btw: The fact that these animations work make one of the lvl 60 orbs unusable for amazones. The constant casting of these nec teeth on shooting makes you blind.

:) Well I wanted to post that as question some time ago but then forgot it: The spoiler doc doesn't explicitly say how set items behave concerning socketing. AFAIK they behave like magic items, i.e. they can have up to 5 sockets. EDIT: Mavina's bow can have 5 sockets, the diadem only 1 (I think 1 so...
