So I’ve heard. For 20+ years now.
Meanwhile all those “better” games died long ago.

I think I agree with the vast majority of this post. One easy change I would suggest is Rainbow jewels work like Infinity.
Is funny that I’ve farmed and had a ton of fun with more than 2 builds for the entire time I’ve played this game. In fact I currently have full slots with about half of them being valid farmers.
you can get by without using ‘guide S-tier builds’… I made my own Martial Arts Assassin that can do all content regardless of immunities… Sure, it’s a pain to run into them… but I do physical/fire/lightning and magic… so I believe there’s nothing immune to all of that

Immunes were introduced only in 1.10 by toxic and full attitude to players dude with name Bill Roper. It was rune dupe economy and Infility was common so nobody cared. Now it’s a big problem. The only pew pew game where you pew pew and doing zero damage to the target. Brilliant xD. No wonder Flagship Studios also was failure.

this is a lie. i stopped in 1.08 and there were immunes in the game. i think even D2 original had immune monsters.
Maybe, but we didn’t have synergies until 1.10 and all build were like Cold/Fire… Cold/Light etc. It wasn’t an issue

what is preventing players from running 2 element types now? a maxroll.gg guide for a “S TEIR FOTM FOTH TURBO FARMER UBER PALLY click here to like and subscribe to my stream” ??

In 1.10 all monstress were buffed to adopt synergies and all dual specs became not viable. I remember trying my lvl99 on non-ladder and they bite the dust. There was no option to respec also. Single element with Infinity was the only way. Now this is impossible for casual player to have.

dual specs work fine. they just arent 10000 clears per minute builds. the game is supposed to be hard in hell. if you want fast clears, use your cookie cutter maxroll spec and farm what its intended to farm. alternatively you can dual spec and kill everything, albeit at a slower rate.
if you have a 99 non-ladder character and are unable to clear, youre either naked, still using tarnhelm, or lying about even having one. considering you dont know which patch added what, id guess the LADDER (LOL great pun, no applause please)
otherwise, youre more than welcome to play D3 and powerfarm lower level GRIFTS every 3 minutes.

ROFLMAO. I was talking about 1.09 lvl99 in 1.10. Jeez. It was possible to level 99 before 1.10 and having normal life xD. It was standard 1.09 amazon. GA/MS. WF/Gaze/Shaft/String… etc
im sure your memory is picture perfect from 20 years ago as well. what were you doing on the night of January 23, 2014
I have never made a hammerdin and I find a way to kill everything. and I am average at this game. I refuse to run from anything, I take it as a challenge.

my opinion is that immunes suck for everyone, but immunities to elements and phys are so common that you think there would be some sort of cheap counter. instead you either need another person or some serious trading to get your self the 2 ber’s needed for infinity…come to think of it…high runes are a bit TOO rare in my opinion. I have never in all my years of playing and mf’ing found a single ber, jah, or zod…the highest I have found was ohm and that was just this week. 2 ohm’s…anyway…sorc sucks at pvm pretty much, but they rock your socks in pvp. nothing says “stay in town” like a 40k fireball…good lord thats insane.

ROFL…This core feature along with many others that people have pathetically wanted to change is why the game has lasted so long

If this is what you call lasting, I hope the games I love equally as Diablo are not “lasting.”

No you can solo with any build it is completely possible to solo hell naked while punching mobs it takes a long time but it’s possible
I like to believe that immunities are in place to encourage group play. That’s the only thing that makes sense to me. It is annoying in single player though.

boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo shut up immunities are why we have multiple classes and why you can die and why you can MF specific areas repeatedly.
Boo this man, booooooooo
Imagine playing before without Den respec quests and Tokens. That was hard. Just go play D3 and get out, dont let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya

Not for sorceresses. But most other classes (all?) have trees that mix damage elemental types. I think all physical builds have skills that do non-physical damage. Honestly immunity is pretty much a sorceress-only problem, because we specialize in a specific damage type per tree. If something like FrostFire bolt was in game, or Cold Mastery wasn’t broken, immunities would probably be less “hard” walls and softer checks.
If you could build so that some combination of Rainbow Facets, uniques, runewords and masteries could trump immunities, the D2 Synergy system wouldnt be so deeply flawed. But 1.1 was rushed out and Blizzard never did another balance patch for almost 20 years.
