You could use that same logic to refer to the whole game.
Mandatory alternate path
If you are forced to use another skill it isnât your choice
But letâs say the replace immunity with super resistant monsters
Then you have the choice between keeping using your main skill or using another skill of which monster doesnât resist
The essence of Immunity is suppose to be a speed bump, but itâs in fact a wall with toll where you can pay to bypass that wall
Making monsters super resistant would be that speed bump
With how many items can you do the whole game? All of them
With how many items can you break a monster with 240 resistance on a sorc? 0
With how many items can you break the immunity of a monster with 140resist on a sorc? 1
Indeed same thing mate

My melee sorc could care less about immunes I beat them down with a phase blade. Iâve honestly never had a problem on any other chars Iâve played either because there are so many ways to deal with them. Immunities are fine the way they are I enjoy the difficulty.

Okay you got a point there. I agree that there should at least be a reasonable amount of ways to kill all monsters, even if the monsters are skippable.
i dont like it , but i think is need for this mindless min max meta to stop player to 1 click the map and bot , 1,09 meta remaine the best in my opinion
I dont like when there is no viable answer possible to that immunity. Like zealot and physical immune. Sure u can use azurewrath or lawbringer, both extremely slow at damaging physical immunes. Lawbringer is good at taking down one single but not 20. Wish lawbringer would be more expensive but with high enhanced damage. Now skipping immunes is best way to fight them. Immune is good way to bring some diversity but not in state of this game, where it lacks proper answers.
The player base seems very divided. Itâs almost like people want 2 different games with the same cover.
I like the immunity system. It forces me to think and use all possible ways to deal with certain situations. I donât have any of the high rune words and I am not a hammerdin. I play solo self found only, mostly HC.
If you are a necro summoner, you can walk over almost everything.
If you are a sor, you have to dual elemental, and make sure your merc is physical.
If you are a trapsin, you have fire blast for lightning immunes, or lead them to corpses and use death sentry.
If you are an amazon, a maxed Valkyrie can kill anything for you. If she canât, resummon her. Her weapon is random.
If you are a physical build, your life will be harder, as you will have to find weapons and/or shields that provide enough elemental damage, and have open wound/bleed/poison to negate regen because it will take long to kill each one of them. To compensate, there are far less PIs than other immunities.
If you are a druid summoner, you canât be just a summoner. Max fissure and volcano at least.
If you ran into multi packs of blood lords, you run for the hills. Eventually you are the most powerful being, as soon as you close the game, all murderous monsters disappear.
Jokes aside, if one day we really come to the point D2 turns into something like D3, please just make it optional, like HC or no HC, immunity or no immunity. This way both group have the game they want.
The playerbase seem divided but itâs not that much
You hear much more people say immunity is good but when you poll it goes the other way
You hear much more people against changes but when you poll itâs mostly in favour
Hell! 75% of players would rather play mods like Pod & PD2 than retail version
You hear much more people talk about pvp but when you poll itâs a minority
I hope blizzard is aware that the most vocal arenât automatically the majority

Iâve seen a very different poll on that one and as we all know that you always create bad poll options, none of them have value.
All your polls look like:
Do you want to die:
fast and painful
fast, but not painful
slow and painful
slow but not painful
Your result:
Everyone wants to die.
Itâs not even funny anymore buddy.
Op is a known troll. He say all kind of random stuff all the time.

immunities are fine, its a challange

Well theyâve not been in the game for more Versions than theyâve been
The immunity system as we know has been added in the atrocious 1.10, the worst patch in D2 history which added op Runewords and synergies
A challenge is something you can get through, not something you have to circumvent
If a college refused applicants which have X trait, youâd call that a challenge?
A real challenge would be to replace immunities, allow you to damage monsters with high resistance But they would mitigate most of it

so for⌠most of diablos life. there has been immunities⌠got it, youâre insane.
i like them
would not have it any other way
The pole is setup to encourage a negative response⌠4 subtractive statements vs 1 appreciative statementâŚ
Yes, you can get through the immunes. Every class in this game has multiple types of damage, and you can have a merc to help if you want more type of damage.
Even if you absolutely have to max 1 single damage type, you can still play with your friends in a team.
I donât mind an immunity. I do not like multiple immunities, especially on quest bosses.
It is 100% unacceptable to have a quest mob immune to fire and cold if youâre a fire and cold sorc, or a physical and lightning immune mob if youâre a Holy Shock Paladin.
It makes it 100% impossible to get past that point given you are only awarded enough points for 2 damage types at best.
I play solo. Every character I have is stuck on a boss/quest mob in hell with all the immunities needed to make it impossible for me to kill.
No, I frankly dislike it greatly! They should remove it (if they have to have it give them a certain percentage of damage mitigation to a certain element!)
