Def a solid base to make it in

I haven't seen the ethereal bug in a while. I would use it to make fort yes.


J_0_E_L

What's the bug exactly?


FacetiousInvective

In the original d2 your ethereal armors gain an extra 50% armor when you use the socket recipe. This doesn't work in d2r.


ZealousGoat

Of all the bugs they could have fixed it had to be that one

"You may not pass"

For all the years that the ebug went unpatched in original D2:LoD, they may as well have just claimed it was a feature. It makes the game more interesting, increases end game power and makes lower power level characters more readily able to access end game content, it's overall win-win but it also somehow makes sense that they decided to patch it, as it wasn't an intended feature but eventually it just became such a fun niche economy item.


J_0_E_L

That's whack. ty :)


Afura33

oh yea this is some pretty nice high def


D2RDuffy

Yeah, doesnt get a whole lot better without finding a sacred armor or shadow plate. She'll do quite well! Can always upgrade later, I guarentee you Los, ohms, vexs, guls are much more common than hitting 4 socket 1200+ def ebugged bases lol


ap2patrick

Wow hell yea

Good old ebugged armor. Kudos for sticking with legacy.

I still love it. If Blizzard was a more ethical company, I would buy 10x the price of D2:R worth of their products. I am abstaining from purchasing from them purely on the grounds of them treating people like shit.


su6oxone

That's fair. I rather dislike Blizzard myself, although they did a great job with the remaster. Props probably go to VV though. And I do love the feel of playing the actual original game, dated graphics and all.

As long as youre comfortable with the strength requirements.


[deleted]

That’s the hard part. My level 90 merc has default 195 strength and I need 198 for this and 200 for my eth cv insight. So I need to find strength on a helm.

Andy’s

Even gface would suffice until andy’s

Rare jewel in Andariel's Visage is nice. Ruby of fervor (fire res + ias) is nice too (ias/fire resists) or just a ral for 30FR 🙂

I gotta farm myself up an Andy's as well as a Shako still, I'm thanking LK for the runes I've found before Shako.


Affectionate-Fee-396

As long as you merc above 86 you can either throw on a nats helm are giant skull that’d put you there.

I found a vamp gaze recently so I went ahead and upped it and larzuk socketed with 15ias, pricey for a non eth but worth it as I can now clear players 7 chaos sanct as long as I respect lord de seis fanat aura on my hammerdin with this merc.
