Diablo Clone event needs to be updated

you should thank you the d2 guys who always ask for a complete d2 resurrect.
and thanks blizz for his laziness to resurrect most of the bugs from d2.

Hahaha damn yo. If they did that then SoJ’s value would be magnified quite a bit

sounds like you’re admitting to using 3rd party applications to help you in game

DClone event was literally the coolest thing about this game back in the day and the subsequent surfing of all open games to see if clone was still up was fun too… Maybe relax and enjoy the game and stop trying to farm 500 annis from one event and play it as intended and you won’t be so opinionated!

Right? With all the server issues how in the world has this not at least gotten a blue post?

Because blizzard is trash

Alrighty, noted.

Edit: Some of you never actually played Diablo 2 apart from getting rushed and leeching in baal games and it really shows.

That’s not great either unless you mean it is account wide. Not every class/spec can take on ubers. Generally people make a dedicated character for ubers.

I totally agree with the fact that this mechanic is not anymore a good way to make it spawn, Back in the days there was a big soj dupping issue that affected D2 economy, Uber was created to force people having dupped soj’s to sell them in order to spawn Uber and make economy stable again.

Now dupe issue is no more (at last i hope so …) . and this event is only triggered by groups mostly D2JP (i hate this community tbh) and they don’t share any soj count or anything and probably people organising event gets a pretty crazy amount of sojs in addition of spaning DClone … i explain how they do …
1 - one people organize the event and tells that event fees entry is 2 sojs per slot to participate (usually 60 slots or so).
2 - organizer gather sojs so he will gather up to 120-130 sojs
3 - organiser give ip to seek to participants within a time lapse
4 - oragniser sell sojs until diablo clones spawns ( but if diablo spawns @75sojs sold) the dude keeps all remaining sojs … that’s purely scam ! )

Back in the days hunter community was sharing counts as much as possible on forums and now there is none of this open information avalable, only D2JSP community holds this and that’s per say not fair for any player … further more, they have rules that claims that it’s forbbiden to tell ip or soj count on servers (just to point out how cancerous this community is). IMO this web site should be sued due to the real money use for “buy” fg and then buy items. this is against the Blizzard policy. anyway i am disgressing here but it has to be also pointed out on this topic.

To avoid this kind of people benefiting other’s sojs the event way of spawxn should really be changed ! D2JS is cancer in this game and most of old player of D2 knows that this community holds a lot of cheaters botters (for information D2JSP was the first “clan” to create a bot back in the days) …
So yeah please change this juste to make chance equivalent for every one and not only for people that belongs to large community of people that really turns the game in a mess (kiss kiss D2JPS players lol) this would probably stop a little those dudes to be so arrogant.

I think a great solution would be to expand the uniques that need to be sold to elite uniques as well. This would give some value to the uniques that end up on the ground in free games in normal.

Tie the sell count to player profile and set the spawn to what ever game you are in that hits the dedicated amount. This would allow small groups to work together in farming uniques and upping everyone’s account number until the dclone spawns, which would reset everyone’s to zero.

Of course can already see some abuses where having tons of characters/accounts close to the limit and swapping them out, but it’s no better than the BS hot ip hunts that are going on now.

I would also encourage changes to dclone himself to make the actual fight more challenging as well. Variable immunities that can’t be broken, or him spawning tomb vipers/new mob

This is all a fever dream that will Lilly never happen. So most like going to be pigeon holed into trading for an anni with the current system

Bump, the current system should be changed. I can’t imagine why you would want a system that encourages players to try and circumvent load balancing procedures to find hot IPs.

Agreed that something needs to change.

I think 1SOJ → spawn is too common, but I like something along the idea of #4.

Standard of Heroes currently have no use. Possibly a recipe to do with a certain number of those, that spawns on an individual game basis.

TL;DR-- something has to change. I’m not sure what’s best, but what we currently have isn’t working.

Bump and 20 characters

The best form its random spawn 1 for month

I take the point of the abuse of the event, for me looks like a big scamming one guy with 7 annihilus just for buy 7 accounts, then that guy sell this 7 for high runes in game and then go to jsp for gf or real money, its a big scamm for regular players, not requieres farm, its not play the game this

get rid of SOJ selling mechanic.

Just make it so that Dclone spawn is not a globally shared event, but only % to separately occur in your game alone by destroying any unique item, making it leave “gold scraps” which you can combine with some rare black soulstone for a chance to craft a d clone gem or something.

Blizz has a hard time understanding simple concepts because they’re essentially no longer Blizz–haven’t been for YEARS. They started spiraling the toilet when Activision bought them, and we’re now somewhere in the sewers. But there isn’t even Radament with his free skill point for us to look forward to, just Blizz keeping things the same that shouldn’t be kept the same, and changing things that shouldn’t be changed.

How to acquire the Annihilus SC. Should definitely be changed.
Stash space. Was changed to include three shared tabs, but that’s arbitrary and should be changed further. At a minimum we need a currency tab.
Character limit. Changed for the worse, with a 20 character cap instead of an unlimited cap (just make new accounts, they’re free for original D2, all you need is a CD key to play). Shouldn’t necessarily have stayed the same, with the limit per account but no account limits, but we certainly shouldn’t be limited to 20.

Yup! This needs to be updated! I recommend 1-4 sojs sold → 1 private Dclone event on battle.net

Current DClone walking events are notorious for scams… leaking IPs and bad actors.

just make it like single player version, 1 soj per spawn per game. we dont have dupe problem any more, there for no need for soj sink like before. and its actually helping the server as well, no more hundred of idiot spamming game looking for that one server.
