Re: How to recreate some Median skills

Neat! Thanks for telling me this, as well as to Brother Laz for including the text files.

By the way, does this mean that I can post my analysis on Median skill mechanics? (again, with full credits given to Laz)

How to recreate some Median skills

I'd like to derive from some interesting skill mechanics in Median (with proper credits given, of course) but I can't figure how they work. Could anyone please help me on how these skills work mechanically ? - Soul Shatter - Pet command skills in general (aurafilters maybe?) - Paragon - Retaliate - ...

Re: Problem with D2:Lod + Plugy, please help!

PlugY does not enable high resolution (> 800x600) modes. I assume you are using one of the multires plugins floating around? Or perhaps you downloaded a repacked version of PlugY, from somewhere other than http://plugy.free.fr/ ? BTW when you reinstall D2 make sure to update to the correct version s...

Curse Criticals

Curses are boring. A curse either works or it doesn't, and once a curse is cast, its use is over. Reducing their duration can enforce more action on the part of the player, but it won't change the fundamental nature of curses. Proposal: Use rand() in aurastats. What if Amplify Damage applies -200% d...

Re: Aura Dealing Weapon Damage, CtC synergy on summons

Ir memory serves me, sanctuary has some sort of missile. Perhaps it could do damage (and nothing else ) with appropriate aurafilters I believe Sanctuary uses the missile only for the client-side pretty effects, and there is no server-side missile created...though I may be wrong.

Couldn't you clone Armageddon and change the missile frequency and area of effect? I don't remember if Armageddon works well as auto tough.

Whirlwind is NOT an AoE Skill?!

The Whirlwind page on Amazon Basin wiki tells me: Weapon can only attack one target within radius and range at each check. But...but that means that whirlwind is not a true area-of-effect skill like multishot and nova, but merely allows you to attack quickly while moving. This is mind blowing. Why h...

These four curses are unique in the sense that they directly meddle with the monsters' AI. But can these be modified to apply stats to the monsters as well? (e.g. Amplify Damage) To check, I added aurastat1=damageresist and aurastatcalc1=-100 to Dim Vision/Terror/Confuse/Attract. I then added 100% p...

Re: Reducing amount of fireballs in nova.

You could spawn an invisible missile ("firenovamaker") that uses the frozenorb hit function to spawn the actual fireball missiles in the shape of a nova. Then you can use the s-HitPar1 and cHitPar1 to control the number of fireballs spawned. For example, using s-HitPar1=4 and cHitPar1=4 would spawn ...

Is there a reason to package the mod into Patch_D2.mpq, when it forces you to include all unnecessary files such as staredit.exe, MPQ2K and such?
