Blizzard says:enough of d2,move to wow-we need your money. <

That is why there is temple and Clan honor.

I personally think that these new runewords will ruin the game. It already is, but this will make it worse..

and dont worry, once they hit non ladder, the dupers will have a field day.


And i wish blizzard would STOP giving everything paladin auras...

They should stay with Paladins!!! Thats what make pala's unique, now EVERYONE is unique....Wonderfull Simply Wonderfulll........

If you can't tell im from the pala forums, and play mostly paladins lol..

And what really frosts my cake is that these new runewords are Ladder only... SO since i play NL and never even touch ladder, it sets me off at a unfair advanage of getting any of the new runewords..

Somody told me before "Many of the new Rws have low runes so poor people can make them" Yea poor people on ladder......us NL folk can't even make em...

Why dont they just make a weapon that is called death incarnate, and then u cast foh and it goes to every adjacent person or pvp people around you at the same time. But it gives +500 holyfreeze skill lvls, and -500 light resist.
When is that coming?

THese new Rw's are simply Bs. The ONLY one i think iwill get is a Fortitude Balrog for my zealot... Only cuz it looks like those 09's 160/60's andwhat not.. God i miss those days of 09. Everything had its place. Cruel's were actually worth something..

Now Runewords have taken over.. So if u suck at makin runewords just quit now. You will be mega poor once ladder xfers over to non.

These new runewords are making pubby a nightmare to duel in. Its goingto be impossible to do any sort of pvp unless its specifically private. or a Private duel league..
Glad im in 3 of em. At least it will restrict some of the BS from these new Runewords.

The-Professor lvl 91 Zealot :king:

EDIT:: the only thing smiters do (pure ones that is) is to go zealot pk games and own all of us... Thats because pure smite sucks perioid, at pvp. All they can duel zealots. Thats not made up thats truthfull. A V/t is godly at pubby and so is vanquishers. This weapon will benefit a v/t alot more then a pure smiter... Pure smiters simply get owned 99.999% of the time by anyhting that has 2 legs and a brain. LIberators own em, Judicators own em, V/t own em... anything does.... So who cares if they have 10k smite damage, they will still get served.

every pure smiter has atleast 1 point in charge, nice def & now they'lll have nice dmg 2 (charge also has the +400 dmg)

dont tell me they dont own since i've had a c/v (charge/smite) for some time now & hardly ever lost & i've hardly duelled zealots

*edit*
paladins were unique because they had aura's that other ppl didnt have
barbs were unique because they had bo while no other char had that
....

now non of the chars are unique since every char can ripoff skills from other chars & kinda hate it

smiter with fana,freeze,lifetap,defiance & bo aint fun :rant:

range is most important to kill smiters, u really shouldnt try to kill a range 2 or 3 smiter if u dont have a range 5 weapon
+ u really shouldnt forget about dmg red since most barbs in public think they'll own my smiter when using 2h cb with just verdungo's & enigma for dmg red, pretty funny imo if they do that
Hmm, you're on Europe right?
If so, I'd like to duel your smiter with my 8%dr, range 3 barb, just to see if you can beat me =)

PM me your account or whisper me at *ror-korgoth.

I don't get the complaining about these being non-ladder only..

it ain't that hard to make a ladder character, just get busy and play !

He had quite a nice smiter, but when I didn't screw up my whirls (happened 1-2 times) he couldn't hit me.
I would do better with angelics though, 14k ar (enchanted) doesn't really cut it.

When ladder resets and Grief BA becomes available I think barbs will have to use range 5 vs smiters though. Luckily enough I'm quitting then, haw haw.

But why did most people already migrate to ****** mode?
Why the HELL would you do something like Fortitude armor and 2 weapons while other weapons STILL have more Enchanced Damage :)
Try Beast/Doom Frenzy with Fortitude or something :) ... dunno if Grief's added damage would get the 300% modifier but if it does then give me your doom and beast and use 2 of those. :)
Merry xmas.

EDIT: My god, that one word got censored :( well, use "dumb idiot mode" instead

what happened?? someone? anyone? :xgrin:
he won :p
1st barb i face with smiter that knows how to whirl without making lots of mistakes, did come close 1 time, still funny imo giving 7k life barb a hard time while having 3.2k life :D

right now the range dif is (most of the time) 2 vs 3 or 2 vs 5 (smiter vs barb)
with grief it should be 3 vs 3 or 3 vs 5 while the smiter will do more dmg so it's pretty clear imo to take the range 5 route

Yeah, but whirling into a smiter with 4k smitedmg with 8% dr is suicide, 7k life or not. =)
With angelics and 50% dr I would do much better.
Btw, how much dr did you have?

The new runewords don't have to ruin everything... more likely they're just going to add variety to the game as they are good, but not the best items out there. For every way that the new rws are "over-powered," they are balanced with what I call "inferiority features." For instance, all this talk about putting rws on mercs, that's just asking to get your merc slaughtered; example 2: use of slow weapons (with no ias) is extremely detrimental to killing speed (save for those who don't need speed).

People should probably stop whining about how Blizzard rocked the boat a bit with these new rws, because if anyone can claim the game play is worse, or more unbalanced then it already is... well they deserve to be flamed :xquiet:

P.S. If you disagree with me, we would be happy to have you at classc :thumbsup:

oh the irony

Hehe, sorry I been playing WoW for awhile. I just found this post to be really ironic. But that might not be the samething at all. But first post is eaxctly how I feel about Everquest and when they came out with Everquest 2.
I wont go into details but it's a huge mess. Most games suffer in one way or another. D2 is no different but d2 was going to hell in a handbasket for awhile I think anyway.

As I said, the reason I use 32020s is because I simply cant afford legit max/ar/lifers. Imo you shouldn't have to waste half your life on d2 just to be competative in pvp. Legit charms are ridicoulusly expensive... =/

Even if I could afford them, I wouldn't get them now anyway; I HATE trading in d2. Heck, I haven't even bothered to get verdungos/angelics/coa.
