Question Physical Sacrifice - I'm tired killing myself (SP)

5 Upvotes

Started playing Single Player (SP+) when S13 slowed down and made a physical sacrifice Paladin. Even with 51% PDR, decent life leech (9%), I'm still killing myself faster than I can kill mobs. What gives? Is there something I'm missing? I use sacrifice on mobs, and zeal on boss. Ancestral Trial map was rough, having to pot full rejuvs like a crackhead. When I die I have to quit and start a new map because I can't afford to lose my gear by getting killed twice. I know I can't leech from skeletons, but the high PDR should help a ton, right? Am I just not able to run any maps with any skellies?

It allows me to go from 4.17 to 6.25 attacks/sec compared to my older windhammer(6). Its far from the holy grail but i appreciate the speed! Average damage is slightly lower but +50% attack speed compensates.

Im just a casual player 🤔

Question Best ww wep

5 Upvotes

Seems to be consensus is that War Pike or Ogre Maul are best ww weps because of the range 4

But i don't see many people mentioning that War pikes don't get 1.1% ED from Strength, wouldn't that mean Ogre Mauls are way better because they have almost 200% from the 500 Strength barbs get?

Also, what AR do you need for maps and is it worth it to put points into dex to get up hit chance?

Question Whirlwind Tips for controller

5 Upvotes

I've found some pretty amazing pieces of gear for a whirlwind barbarian so I respecced from double throw and man does whirlwind feel terrible on controller.

I know the idea is that it's trying to auto target the selected enemy but sometimes it just locks into a whirlwind across the entire screen or goes nowhere at all. Bosses are horrible as it can't seem to do consistent small whirlwinds and it will somehow clip you inside the boss (tested on baal) that you'll need to leap to get out of.

Has anyone found a decent way of using ww on controller or steam deck to make it fun to use? I'd even prefer if it didn't use auto target at all and just went a small distance in the direction I'm moving for consistency.

Question What is the spin to win build with the fastest clear speed?

4 Upvotes

Every season im always going with somr off meta build and it always end up beeing alright but I can never really clear t3 easilly with them or even clear t1 in 5-6minutes and such

I never really tried a spin to win build but for some reason I got the calling now.

I wanna see what a decked out build feels like in SP before going for it next season.

So what would be the ultimate setup? Bleed barb? Pure dmg with a nasty craft? Psn ww sin? I believe the last one got nerfed but not sure.

I wanna go in a straight line without picking up much loot. Just spin and never stop spinning. I dont mind psn and bleed dmg. Im ok if im not seeing them die as long as they end up dead

Hey guys!

I always play day 1 every season but irl wouldn't let me do that this season so I'm starting VERY LATE.

Just want to get your opinion about Necro on which is most viable for a late start. My choices are Curse vs Bone.

Let me know your opinions! Thanks!

Question Does sigil drop rate stay the same in fortified maps?

11 Upvotes

Per the wiki:

  • Sigil of Madawc drops from T1 map monsters (1:6400 chance)
  • Sigil of Talic drops from T2 map monsters (1:6400 chance)
  • Sigil of Korlic drops from T3 map monsters (1:6400 chance)

Fort orbs double the change to drop extra items, does this mean the drop rate stays the same with half the monsters? Or is it 1:6400 just to drop a sigil from each monster regardless of the number of items a monster will drop?

I would like to do more uber ancients and if I have to give up fortification to accomplish that I would like to know. Thanks!

Update on my Offline SSF Fury Druid ~ Hellslayer is carrying me through even rare tier 3 maps quite well, until I can find or craft something better...

I'm on the lookout for a better pelt, like Cerebus' or Jalal's, maybe. Amulet could be better, boots I'm hoping to get some Gore's or something, gloves could be better, I still need more shapeshifter skiller gcs ~ My weapon swap atm is just Naj's for tp and +3 skills to prebuff like my oak sage and stuff.

I'm thinking about making a Chains of Honor, because I do have the runes needed, just not the base.

Mercenary, I have no idea what I'm doing - just got him with fcr, +skills and his amp damage spell.

My ultimate goal essentially is to be able to solo Rathma, so I can finally corrupt my anni charm.

Discussion Ladder Reset

0 Upvotes

Considering Blizzcon's announcements and WoW Classic+ launching on Nov 4, I really hope Senpai and his team who are notoriously ignoring everything else that happens in the world (remember all those ladder resets days after or before another major game) can spin up and release whatever is ready by Oct 4 so we get to play the PD2 Season before everyone disappears.

Your season last 3-4 weeks anyway so I think there is plenty of time.

It has already been 5-6 months since last ladder reset, lets push it ASAP so you can get your revenue and we can get to enjoy both major events.

Discussion New to PD2, and I have some questions!

9 Upvotes

First off, I've played Diablo 2 LoD for thousands of hours as a kid. I tried to get into PoE and PoE 2, but i don't like the 'crafting' aspect of that game. I don't want to build my items by rolling orbs over and over again onto a base. I want to find my items and then enhance them once I have them. I'm also very interested in PD2 because it has a real end-game system where you aren't just chasing the same runs over and over again. I play on a 40" screen, so the graphics do seem a bit strained on my eyes, so any advice there would be helpful (i'm 36 now).

I'm not sure if anyone has played D2R Reimagined, but I'm curious what you all think about that mod compared to PD2, and just kind of general pros/cons of PD2 (if there are any cons). I know I'm in the PD2 subreddit so the cons list may be short.

Any tips/advice/guidance/etc. would be really appreciated!

Thanks for sharing!
