Maybe you misunderstood me or I wasnt clear with my opinion. I am not against giving access to ladder only rune words to Single player and nonladder. I dont like limitations myself. I just think that players do not play ladder for ladder only items, there are other reasons. I remember a lot of players who played hardcore ladder and they never had good top rune words. So I think you are wrong about reasons.
But if you active ladder only words on non ladder, ladder players should get something new. Doesnt have to be items.
Well there are people who play it for items which cannot be found on NL too. I am sure of that. I just think its not majority.
Well it depends on luck too. you can start farming hell in day 2. then you have like 28 days to farm, so its definitely possible. But I dont think its guaranteed.
i mean thats how probability works, it could be a 1 in a googolplex chance and its still “theoretically possible” to get it within the first 100 tries.
I already talked about it somehwere else, One of my friends found all uniques with exception like 5 of them and all runes with exception of Zod in 2 months of playing. He had Enigma after 1 month, actualy even sooner if i remember well. Knowledge where to find and how+some luck can do wonders.
Only people who know what they are doing will have good items without bots and duping on ladder.
Thats why I want to play Hardcore as if I will have good gear I wont be just another person who has top items, I will be only one of few
which is exactly why i would be able to make stuff like the rarer “ladder only"items and runewords no one builds or keeps like “pride” and “lawbringer” harmoney " kira guardians”
people dont keep those, you would never be able to bring those nl unless yoiu PLAYED ladder yourself made them and then waited for ladder to end… thats a completly stupid system… if i gather the runes for them. why cant i make them? why am i being FORCED to play ladder?, i dont want to “buy them” there is no “solo self found fortitude” in nonladder… becuase you NEED to have played ladder and then transfer it down, OR trade for it.
thats why i have NEVER done “solo self found” its why i dont play single player"
because without access to the rw’s i want there is NO POINT, in playing them
I’ve never play multiplayer after 1.10+, so how easy or difficulty for non-ladder characters trade for a ladder-only item? Like in general how much non-ladder items or currency you need to trade a ladder-only item?
That question varies very very dramatically on what the item in question is.
Price of a Spirit? Relatively cheap (though obviously not near as cheap as it is to make one).
Price of a Grief or Infinity? You’re going to pay a premium. But in theory players on NL have a lot more wealth than players on ladder; so its still obtainable.
You can call BS on the truth all you want, you have already stated that your runefinding abilities are approximately 1 HR vex+ in every 3-5 YEARS of playing.
You are either A-really unlucky
Or… B-Not very good at D2
Either way, your views on runefinding are irrelevant. Yes, I have self found the runes for enigma in less than a month.
Twice.
its probability… i have been able to trade for hr’s sure… but find them myself??? yeah, i stand by my statement.
lol and you think you need to tell me my luck is bad? i KNOW my luck is bad, my entire life i have always rolled on the low end of statistical improbability.
i played mtgo and went a 18 turn followed directly by a 17 turns in a row with no land draws on a computer shuffler with, more than 1/3rd land in the deck.
i know exactly what im lucky at, i will NEVER have good luck on almost anything
but in school cakewalks i win EVERY SINGLE TIME, im 7 for 7
when i identify anni’s i roll a high anni like 90% of the time
i have rolled THREE 20/20 anni’s one of those being a 20/20/10 and 6 20/19 or 19/20… 2 of which were 10.
maybe 20% of my anni rolls are don’t have more than 25 together between all the stats, and yeah statistically that doesn’t make sense
there is REASON i CHOOSE to become an anni farmer, becuase i KNOW what im lucky at and where i have TERRIBLE luck. and yeah when i became an anni farmer my luck with annis held at that constant high.
and in d2 basically 98% of my luck goes into getting good rolls on anni’s XD
i farm annis and iu would sell them for 4-7 hrs on average and i have sold the perfect ones for over 20 hr’s
i traded for hr’s all the time… but i never FOUND any more than maybe 1 every 2-3
years.
so maybe you did find the runes for enigma twice… i have found 3 20/20 anni’s
but i would wager the average for anni’s rolls and the average for HR’s drop rated is likely somewhere BETWEEN our extremes.
You may not have played D1 . . . the variant build options were significantly more viable.
3@30, anyone?
ironman?
Still, I remember building a bash/war cry barb at one point. Ya. Not very viable but he was fun. These days I prefer frenzy on my barb using botd phase blades or swap one out with azurewrath for end game.
