Farming wraiths for High Runes

Hello!
This is my second video for farming only for high runes. My aim is to help and motivate peoples to play the game, not to use bots or some other methods. Play the game, enjoy and Runes will drop : )
Thanks for watching!

is this a compliation of 4 months?

Plenty of other better areas to farm them…WSK3, Cata, Tower…Chaos etc

Nova sorc doesn’t have to worry about that which is why nova was the best Arcane Sanctuary farmer back in the day.

Looks like a split Magic Find game, or just hijacking other public games to solo farm. Unrealistic expectations for most folk in my opinion, and terrible use of multiplayer play.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not for players x on battle net either. I’d rather the core issue of multiplayer be tackled. However, the fact that the video starts with a character that is already in multiple HRs of equipment (Infinity, Phoenix), the idea of having a message saying keep playing, those high runes will come a rollin, on top of abusing the multiplayer mechanic for higher drop rates when most classes don’t have that capability of players 8 farming, even with as much HR equipment investment as this player, sets wrong with me.

No offense to OP, and I hate to crap on his video, that has the only issue of having some musical tastes I’m not interested in (first song great, the metal stuff instrumentation is good but the vocals are not my style of metal vocals didn’t watch much further).

I do understand the sentiment though. I have not had any luck in the past few months with HRs, but the first 4 months of launch, I managed 4 in Chaos, 1 in WSK, and another in Tal Rasha Tombs, all done on private solo bnet, which the majority of players would be farming at.

i already said this, the other option is to remove unpartied player bonus and improve partied bonus (like instead of reaching near zero no drop add a chance to roll a second drop)

i have no problem with that but something must be done

sure a new difficulty would be awesome but i dont want to wait till patch 3.0

That would solve the issue of hijacking games, or split magic finding games and force players to stick together for the item drop bonus. However, I also don’t feel that it would do anything to actually improve party play. Much of the game is too solo oriented; dclone, uber trist, farming, etc. The multiplayer basically revolves around pvp, rushing, trading, and cbaal for exp.

For now, I’m just enjoying the updates we have been given, and look forward to when they drop the update teaser on what they will be doing for the next ladder.

at least. how ever many runes he’s showing dropped, he probably did 500-1000 runs per rune to get

And all this would be solved with ploot or instanced loot

/x or removing unpartied bonus is not meant to solve all the problems around mp, imo it is meant to solve the imbalance between true solo and solo unpartied players which in practice are the same

Ouch…

it took me almost 900 runs to get the key of hate from the summoner. the highest rune i got in all those runs was a pul.

Well…its 1/11 for hkey to drop solo
The highest streak i had was over 70 runs without a tkey (1/14)
So…im not saying it didnt happened…but you must be the only person it ever happened

Allocated (the main personal loot argued around here), would be a step better for Baals and progression. However, would not change the nature of dclone and uber trist being a solo venture and I would still probably progress primarily solo, except maybe in Normal.

Instanced, would be better. Optional Players 1 instanced, with the uber organs, torches, and annis bound to account. Add into the mix the removal of the unpartied bonus online, and people can either play together and get their own loot, or play together and compete for loot, with increased party bonus to drop rate.

Ouch! I think most runs I ever had to do for my 3 keys from any boss target, was around 100 for Keys of Destruction when I did my first Uber Trist on D2R last October. Heck, my Zon going through Arcane for quest last night dropped a Key, my first for ladder.

i have a spot that is 10x better for ghosts and you never lose drops for being over the void. I’m one of the best players to ever play this game tbqh.

it can happen easily. there’s no guarantee you’ll get any given thing after a certain number of runs, the odds don’t go up with every consecutive game. if you had a 1/11 chance to get it in a run, you still only have a 1/11 chance of getting it in the next one.

900 is an estimate though, i quit counting after the fifth day, doing about a hundred runs a day

Dclone indeed is a bit tricky
Its spawn mechanics would have to be completely remade to make it a mp thing/option

This one not so much as dclone but it would still need changes
Just make the torch drop instanced and we’ll have groups where each person brings set amount of keys and free torch runs

I dont like this
Im always pro market
I know bots and p2winners would exploit it but legit players should not be penalized bc of cheaters

I dont know about that
The chance is really…really low…its like “failing” on russian roulette 400-500 times in a row

I gained wealth farming arcane in Baal run games this season big time. Increased hokey drop odds too.
