Diablo II: Resurrected Console Lobbies, TCP/IP, & UW Updates

[WhirLWinD-1213]

Two ideas that could reverse how DClone spawns:
1. 75-120 SoJ’s(they could adjust this) found/dropped globally would spawn him.
2. 75-120 SoJ’s(they could adjust this) gambled would spawn him.
So, instead of selling SoJ’s you would have to find/gamble(still found but in a different way) SoJ’s to spawn DClone. This way dupers(if duping exists) wouldn’t dupe a massive amount of SoJ’s for spawning DClone!

@DClone Spawn - Let's think backwards

Let’s say instead of 75-120 SoJ’s sold globally to spawn him, but 75-120 SoJ’s found/dropped globally would spawn him.

While i disagree with the OP and i wouldnt mind Annihilus being more rare than it is now. Why not flip the entire system?

Increase SoJ requirements for DClone to something alot higher like 500-1000 (up for debate). Instead of having to sell SoJs to the vendor, you have to buy them from the vendor.
This would incentivice gambling and would not be possible by a small number of players to begin with. It would basically take a community effort to spawn DClone.
Not the effort of some super-rich SoJ traders/dupers.

My SoJ found instead of SoJ selling idea is still a good idea, but your idea is good as well. So, instead of selling SoJ’s to vendors to spawn DClone you sink gold into gambling rings to gamble for SoJ’s. Once 75-120(they probably would have to adjust this because it’s hard gambling a SoJ) SoJ’s are gambled since they automatically identify after gambling this would spawn DClone. People would still have to be in a Hell game, and be on the right IP address if IP’s are still a thing for DClone to spawn. Still would be very rare to gamble SoJ because in the Beta the community was helping MrLlamaSC out gambling rings and he only gambled a Manald. So, Anni would be rare, but gives game gold more uses. Funny thing is I made a thread back on February 23rd about this. 4 days after D2: R was announced!

@Game Gold Uses in D2:R

Other than buying potions, scrolls, repairing gear, gambling, etc. I was wondering if somehow game gold could be used for other things. A suggestion could be about the spawning of DClone. Maybe if you get a certain amount of gold you can gamble a low chance of buying a certain item that could spawn DClone when you sell it/use it, or at least has a part in spawning DClone. I think there should be more ways that gold could be used other than just our normal D2 way of using gold mainly for repairin…
