+ to skill on non-class items should be open skill, not “x class only”

So basically all I hear is that you don’t have the mental capacities to be creative and ingenious with those potential new tools

What a toxic load of bull man you are a sick noob

I highly recommend perma ignoring that guy. He’s a complete waste of time.

enchant did a significant amount more damage than it does

Yeah, Enchant is good for damage with Warmth (synergy), and Fire Mastery maxed. It’s mostly used for AR boost as an o-skill, and it’s damage is nerfed on ranged weapons. The problem with an Enchant Sorc, is she’s limited to a single target melee attack without o-skills. Zeal is the only main option she has with Passion runeword, and Beast/Dragon/Dream at high end. Widowmaker is another option, but unless they made GA pierce again, it’s still a single target attack. If they opened up the Strafe on Endless Shail, it’d provide an excellent option for an Enchant Sorc, that wouldn’t over-ride an Amazon due to lack of innate Dodge/Avoid/Evade/Critical Strike/Pierce/2.4 synergies.

That’s moment Tannis and I’s opinion are in line about something you know that there’s something

Indeed

A class isn’t just 1 skill, it’s the whole set

A sorc using endless hail for Strafe won’t maker her a Strafezon and strafezon will remain the best at it and if it doesn’t and gets beaten at it’s own skill by another class just because of +1 to that skill… then there is somebody wrong with how zon is balanced

They have alot of this on modded d2’s.
and it was fun.
so no, it wont happen.

Lol I love the satiric nature of that last line

Yeah it definitely does sound fun. When you create a new character and find a staff of firebolt/fireball with a Barbarian, you should definitely be able to cast it just like you can in Diablo 1.

It makes finding low level items like Spire Of Lazaurus more relevant and exciting to find.

Of course this would require heavy PTR testing, but if anyone knows a D2/D2R mod, I would be curious enough to test it out.

To be honest I’m not sure if I would go up to making open class item +skill into Oskill

Open class item:
-scepter
-wand
-staff

But at the same time, it would fall in line with my philosophy that everybody in sanctuary is a human therefor uses the same energy to generate magic so everybody should be able to do everything. But the difference between classes is that some have a greater mastery over certain skills

So a barb picking up a staff with +3 firewall would be able to use it but not master it to the extent a sorc can ( barb max lvl 20 vs sorc max lvl 55)
