Whichever d2 mod it was that added the insane OP necro summon but the balance for it was that if you died, it turned into a nearly unkillable enemy, is probably the coolest summon I've seen in a game. Good memories of trying to spawn new ones to kill the old ones and suddenly it spiraled out of control and there were 8 megafuckers chasing our group around for half an hour

oh hell yeah

We are reaching the end of act 2 i believe. about to find a pyramid and raise some darkness? I didnt plan anything on the talent tree, just took it one branch at a time basically and lucked into a pretty sick build, claws + frenzy + life steal stuff with dex stacked up. its a lot of fun.

If shadow is the duel wielding guy on the character select he's really fun.

Good killing Bob. I was saying since there's interest in this game again, we should organize like everyone making a Lvl 1 guy and playing through the game together.

i think in a2 you get an ability called sunder, it shoots an anime wave out that hits hard, and the hits cause shockwaves for even more dmg so it completely shreds groups. you also get an earthquake and poo poo, they added way more interesting high level melee skills

Noice. Im also waiting for the atk speed inrease so I can stack green bonus gems on leap and use it to just comically flatten people around the map, which is something that pops up in a2 from what I remember.

It's not as immediately flexible but the way you build characters actually reminds of the souls games because you can do anything with anybody really. They also give you a healthy amount of respec points through the campaign so you can always tweak and revisit stuff later if you get a sweet skill gem or something that you want to make a whole build around

i'm currently running into socket problems right now. i sort of want to upgrade some gear, but i really need that space for gems so i can do stuff. it's a cool trade-off.

The gem system makes me like this game a lot more than the countless imitators and actual D2 itself

the end game maps are better looking than the story areas in poe lol

That makes sense though because hasn't the game been in like roling development for years? I remember playing a while ago when it just had one or two acts.

I wouldn't mind 10 acts/tilesets if each act was like a half hour long
