Diablo 2 - NPF Campaign

[Menarker]

*Nods*

Mind you, a single point in summon skeleton, Corpse Explosion or rather Poison Explosion if you do go Poison is useful when dealing with foes that...

A: Resurrect, such as the bone fetish shaman.
B: Foes capable of using corpses as resources such as the corpse eater or Nilithalak (think I spelt his name wrong) who has Corpse Explosion.

If you can destroy the corpses by using it yourself, then it makes things a lot easier. :3

I'll participate;

My preferred class would be a Bowazon (main skills Strafe/Freezing Arrow)

[Menarker]

Well, a Wind Druid with Physical/Cold, a Bowazon with Physical/Cold and a Necromancer (type undetermined yet). I think we got a pretty good amount of Ranged Physical and Cold at the moment. :3 Just need Fire, Lightning, Poison perhaps, and maybe Magic damage like Hammerdin.

I've always wanted a big regular group for D2, count me in.

I'm going to run a TS/DT claw/shield assassin.

[Amake]

Oh yeah, monster health regeneration. About 1.2% of their total health per second if memory serves. Ensures that only the best builds can make it to the end. I forgot all about that. It's another thing I like about Median; there isn't any. :3

Aaanyway, I'm calling bags on a Sorceress. Always wanted to do a single-element Sorc but noo you need friends for that. I'd go with whatever element we have the least of which at the moment seems to be fire.

Edit: Just to let people know that currently using a version with an invalid CD Key for Battle.net (Lost the key years ago, oops). Are people wanting to make use of ladder or just TCP/IP'ing it up?

If people are calling things, hook me up with the Paladin.

[Menarker]

I'm not certain about the ladder thing, but I think that was intended because the group is/was being created in response to the ladder resetting.

Details on new patch: http://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Diablo_2_Patch_Notes_1.13

In other words, Hammerdin NERFed. Might still be powerful, but no longer bypassing immunities.

@Invisible Queen: Well, the element that we got least of at the moment is Fire (Although also lacking lightning). Luckily enough, the recent patch buffed Fire Sorceress. :3

[waddle2120]

If we do ladder then it doesn't do much good to do anything prior to the 28th; the only thing possibly would be if were doing hardcore we can make sure everyone can make a character right away.

If we are doing the ladder; does anyone have a preffered server?

[A Zarkin' Frood]

Thanks to that link I just remembered that respecs are possible in 1.13
Which may allow some more obscure, yet fun, builds in Normal and a more optimized one later on. At least that's how I hope the respecs work. I haven't participated in the beta so I don't know.

EDIT: I thought we were just waiting till (at least) the 28th for the patch to be applied to the regular realms.

[Menarker]

Oh, so that's what the date is about? Well, I don't really care about the ladder that much. Just been bored lately, and had a hankering to play a game and this one is right up my alley. So yeah, doesn't matter about ladder or anything although waiting for the new patch sounds good.

Btw, we never did confirm whether we're doing softcore or hardcore. (Never had luck with hardcore and Wind Druid is insanely hard to level/play in the early stages.)

Well, we got every class except a barbarian. And two of the people who I had in the list eariler (Lev and McBarrelPants) still have yet to confirm what class they'll be (if they are still in that is.)
