copied what? I copied a video by killing the exact monsters that the video did? what kind of delusional crap is this? I went orb/light as my first build in d2r, why would I need a video to tell me what to do when i have 10 years of experience playing classic d2? Is it that hard to know to add points into frozen orb and its 1 synergy? is it that hard to know to add the majority of your stat points into vita? is it that hard to know how to swap out weaker items for better ones that you find? wtf⌠stanner do you have any learning disabilities?
people like stanner are why d3 got rid of adding stats + skills. it is just too difficult for some folks.
You clearly didnât read anything and just came in to reply with nonsense and this is proven because Your reply has absolutely zero to do with anything I brought up in this topic.
Your reply is just an excuse for you to come in and troll.
Same goes for this meatstick Iâm quotingâŚdidnât bother reading anything and just posted a nonsense reply.
Guides are all hot garbage because they didnât tell me how to overcome these two issues.
Please enlighten how that isnât the TLDR.
Fine the guides suck. Ok? Blizzard didnât write them, you didnât pay for them. How do you plan on addressing the issue of lack of free player provided guidance?
Your reply proves you didnât bother reading it. So Iâm going to correct your reply to reflect what the post actually says, instead of what you just made up and reworded to change what it points out.
All guides are garbage because THEY NEVER go over 2 major issues that matter to everyone when playing.
The correction is something you donât grasp a simple concept on because you buy all your gear and get boosted in order to be able to use it which explains why youâre clueless when it comes to the actual playing of the game. You also have zero clue on what a proper guide is.
You people crack me up with the constantly trying to change an actual problem into something personal.
welcome to RPG Guides where they tend to FOCUS PURELY on UBER Early game jack squat your super noob or UBER LATE GAME WITH GEAR!
this isnt unique to just D2 mind you it happens in almost all RPGS
CRPG Example -
Pathfinder Kingmaker - Slayer prob most under-rated class but peeps to focus on it having less Sneak attack damage then the rogue / alc, Even though it more then makes up for it with higher BaB (So it hits more often, gets feats quicker, gets more attacks so on so forth) as well as all the other benefits it gets over them (Higher HD, Better saves so on so forth)
All coz peeps focus to much on the SA Die and ignore eveything eles
Dark Souls ? - Yeah eveyone only focus on the PvP Builds for the most part or only @ SL 125 for DS3 or SL 120 for DS 1/2 and what knock they dont think of just trying to get though the game PvE Teaching you the game mech then talking about PvP which is where peeps mostly want the info on.
FAR To many f-in guides ignore the middle for the most part and only focus on the purely End Game ⌠and even then.
Well you goaded me into to let me write the guide for you:
1-10 in 45 ish minutes (not 3 hours), fully self found, no help from stash or other players.
Use your base javalinâŚstab things with it. Yes I said stab, not throwâŚwait to throw until you picked up some gold. Do not deplete your Javlin to 1, repairing it is much cheaper.
Buy some STA potions ones you can because the game sucks before you can make stealth.
Donât forget your waypoints, because running back and not being able to kill mobs sucksâŚand STA sucks.
Put some points in STR/VIT/ENG, none of the skills before 6 matter, 6-10 poison javelin.
There you go.
How about spend some less time claiming people canât read your post and actually read peoples advice.
Now call me a liar, my level 10 Amazon doesnât care. But thank you for making me get one to 10 just to prove itâs not hard.
@Sikkun
You ignored what this topic was and went ahead and did the exact opposite just so you could post a reply to spite me.
I also never asked for a guide so you wasted your time. You like half the other people replying, donât even know what youâre even replying to.
This topic had 2 purposes:
To warn new players who wanted to use an amazon not to follow any guides for the reasons I specified.
To expose players who buy gear and get boosted. Those players give themselves away by their replies.
They literally have no concept about the issues I pointed out are actual problems in guides. To those people, playing the game doesnât matter, so they of course ignore it and act like itâs no big deal and no one should be complaining about it.
Well given that your claims are based on lies and your estimate of how itâs impossible to get to 8 and later 10 by following them is factually incorrect and off my multiple factors.
So new players would be better off following max rolls Amazon leveling guide than your post.
Go make some better guides then, majority of us are bored of these posts and Iâll admit I read the bold sentence only before making this post. You specifically have rubbed so many the wrong way nothing you post will actually be read without bias.
normally iâd agree but heâs actually got a point. the guides ARE written like you have a packed stash full of high runes, socketed bases, and a couple tabs of uniques with perfectly rolled stats.
iâve never seen a single guide talk about the mana problems for playing through normal mode. itâs not as bad for something like a pally or barbarian or assassin, because theyâre increasing their non-skill melee damage as they go, and they arenât dead in the water when they run out of mana. as a sorceress, if you run out of mana your options are âteleport back to town and buy potionsâ or âdieâ until you get to level 27 and can equip an insight polearm or staff.
All the current guides say to use throw weapons and to throw them and use skills that eat your mana and as such causes a massive problem because it prevents people from leveling.
The guides all say use a throwing weapon while never mentioning you will miss 90% of the attacks when throwing, and will need tons and tons of mana pots.
That is all 100% fact which can be verified by looking at any guide all main stream people point to.
You saying me pointing that out is a lie is a lie in itself and spreading misinformation.
Furthermore you ignored this is a problem with throwing weapons and skills that eat mana and went ahead and used a completely different attack then tried saying call you a liarâŚ
Maybe your problem isnât the guides. Maybe you need new glasses and might get caught up on your sleep.
I getting ready to play a zon and in the beginning I get close to the monsters I am going to kill.
And if it is a bow zon you are talking about there is a skill or two that the arrows donât miss.
If you donât like the guides than donât use them. Y ou kill a monster you get exp it is simple as that. If you are missing the monster stand closer.
But some people prefer the problems in life rather than on the solutions.
Because they donât miss 90% of the time. And paying the 1g to repair your javelin would be even faster than stabbing it. But you can literally just stab it and beat the âimpossible 3 hourâ mark.
Youâre talking out of your A$$, you canont use any of the skills youâre talking about UNITL AFTER you reach very specific levels and thsi topic is about BEFORE anything youâre trying to reply with.
They do miss.
I want to see you go out into the game with a fresh level 1, no help from any stashed items, and throw you beginning weapon at an enmey in blood moor and let me know how many throws you have to use before you actually can hit an enemy then do the same but use a bow and let me see how many times it takes before you can actually kill an enemy by shooting it and constantly running out of mana
This will continue happening throughout level 5 and up to level 12âŚyour attacks constantly miss.
he doesnât have a point. most guides are written in the mindset of PvP, not even for PvE. And they were written during classic d2 heyday where everyone and their grandma owned several enigmas on non ladder.
apparently you and stanner need leveling guides, guides that teach you how to level up and collect itemsâŚsmh. for the rest of us the steps have always been very obvious, we donât need a guide to tell you which order of spells to max out and to collect trash items and slowly upgrade them with better items that you find. that is what stanner is crying about.
so go write them guides Eithris & Stanner, we would all love to know how to level up an amazon in a couple months when weâll all have 20 characters beyond level 90 at that point so yeah will really come in handy⌠/sarcasmâŚ
