I'm a teenager again. Why is this game so damn addicting? I forgot how damn great the soundtrack is too. It's got to be one of the best ever.

Does this play the same controller wise as D3? (Ps4)

Can't stop using zoom to just admire the new coat of paint and all the background/environmental details. They did a fantastic job there.

Necro, and the second part of the staff quest. Level 15 I am. I joined with a nother necro who was like level 21 and much more powerful.

Skellies arent doing enough damage to clear the trash mobs quick enough

Ah, sounds like you're a little underleveled compared to both of my level 20 characters that are at the same point. Maybe you rushed a little. I farmed the countess and Andariel at least 5 times each.

So, probably just a level and gear issue. Make a stealth armor with Tal and Eth?

Not so fantastic with the implementation on consoles. But i get what you are saying.

I was going to show restraint and wait for sale. I lasted 48 hours.....

Similarly. The inputs are similar. It's a slower paced game though.

Can you zoom on consoles?

 

[TheDarkPhantom]

Beat Duriel my 1st attempt too, on to Act 3, my grizzly needs bigger game.

 

[Spukc]

woo finished the game on normal.
Now some moomoo farming for 4slot polearm and 2x crystal sword 4slot.

 

[Con-Z-epT]

Yes, in the options menu there is a toggle.

Use skeleton warriors over skeleton mages

max skeleton warriors over skeleton mastery (one point into mastery until you max skeleton warriors)

corpse explosion is strong as fuck. Use it a lot and eventually max it out

cast amplify damage on all normal monsters and Iron Maiden on all bosses

Great. Thank you

Any tips for Ancient Kaa The Soulless?

Halfway through he doesn't lose health anymore.

Diablo 2- inventory full edition. I don’t recall having this much issue with inventory in 3? I pretty much only have room for potions

Have you got a belt with 8 slots? That takes 12 potions out your inventory. And then dont be shy using town portals to put stuff in stash.

This game is ridiculous at throwing potions at you, at least on normal. I never have any aside my belt and find the game gives me all I need.

 

[Warablo]

Just a heads up, Cold Mastery looks like it still breaks immunities. Now some of the champion packs have so much resist I can't break their cold immune, but the lesser immune monsters I can still damage with cold spells. Might respec and go full cold or wait and see if they patch it.

I’ll have to check but I keep filling my belt up and my inventory is still full with them too haha

 

[cormack12]

Arcane Sanctuary is fucking horrible. Just got the final missions to complete there then I'm done with that part. Still feel my gear is turd though, not getting anything with sockets at all. Seen like one wand drop and it was a shitty yew wand.

What are you playing on? I got some decent necro wands

 

[PanzerAzel]

Does anyone know of a quick way to refill the belt on consoles? I know on PC it’s shift+right click. Is there a shortcut on PS5?

Highlight belt and right stick press it

 

[I collect VHS tapes]

also here is a HUGE tip that helped me on console. not sure if this translates over to PC.

I notied that even if I was out of health pots it would let me use the ones in my inventory without refilling belt. the potions would just appear as a shadow on my belt but would still work.

I couldn't get this to work with mana potions.

I found out it works with mana pots if you put them in the second spot on your belt.

works with rejuv if you put them on 3rd spot.

Gracias.

Really not feeling this so far, didn't play until today so can no longer find a party on Switch for the starting chapter, playing solo and having to keep teleporting back, identify items, compare items, sell crappy items, return etc. I went necro so don't even have to fight anything, just run around and let them do their business. I get it's an old game, but folks who think this is better than Diablo 3 have rose-tinted glasses on.

 

[sircaw]

slaughtering nightmare cows atm level 61, hell is just too rough with resists

 

[cormack12]

Xbox here currently using a brimstone rend axe I think. Got decent stats like +50% undead dmg etc.

Just feel like im leaving 90% of drops. I have a few runes el, tir, eld I think

 

[Spukc]

so countess NM is still best spot to farm sol rune's ?
i have my polearm 4slots 3 filled all i need is sol for insight

PMd

I haven’t played with anyone else so I’m going to try to have to find out how to add/play with you

 

[I collect VHS tapes]

If you don’t have stealth yet I can make you one too

Where did you get a 4os polearm?

yeah I had to combine some runes to make a sol using the cube but countess is the way to go

 

[cormack12]

Basically is it better to keep gloves with +6 base def but with lots of stats. Or should i just replace with higher base and like one stat

Depends on stats but basically always stats

summoner and sorceress doesn’t really care about defense. I’m on act 3 nightmare using like 200 defense total, if that

Just don’t get hit, resists will be way more important

 

[Chaplain]

Does the game have local co-op?

I went to the cowlevel on norm then got a white polearm and used the act 5 quest reward on it

Does the game have local co-op?

no

 

[Evil Calvin]

I am playing on Switch. It seems the music is much lower than when you switch to the legacy mode. Immediately you can hear the music when switching. In handheld. The settings are all the way up too. And volume is max

 

[Chaplain]

no

Thank you!

Are there any plans for this to be patched in at a later date?

They are leaving it open.. like everything else not to hurt sales (do not buy the game for promises)

[Lanrutcon]

Farming NM Andi took a few minutes.

Until my merc got a crushing blow weapon.

 

[ssringo]

So, are the PC servers stable at this point? Just wrapped up an offline Normal playthrough and ready to jump to online if all's (relatively) well.

 

[I collect VHS tapes]

Got a lower resist wand, starting to farm nm Mephisto

my mf sucks but I’m hoping to find something decent

 

[Ulysses 31]

Player with controller is pretty chill, less strenuous than pointing and holding with mouse.

Don't you do council at Travincal before Mephy?

 

[I collect VHS tapes]

Don't you do council at Travincal before Mephy?

Yeah I already did it

[cormack12]

So duriel is tough right

 

[I collect VHS tapes]

So duriel is tough right

Yeah

edit: if I’m still on I can help you kill him when I give you the gear

just tell me what symbol/tomb he’s in

 

[Gordon Freeman]

Are there any details on how this runs on Switch in portable and docked mode?

Resolution? Framerate? Stability?
