Diablo II (Video Game)	comment	Diablo II is the first sequel to the massively popular Diablo. It expanded the available characters to five (Barbarian, Amazon, Necromancer, Sorceress, and Paladin) and introduced many new features, including: a skill tree which gave players the ability to tailor their character(s) toward certain power schemes; the ability to add jewels and runes to weapons and armor to increase their abilities; the ability to craft items; new levels of weapon and armor rarity and quality; and many others. The game also greatly expanded the Diablo world. The action takes place in four Acts, set in the forests and fields around an abandoned monastery and temporary rogue encampment, the desert city of Lut Gholein, the jungle realm of Kurast, and in the depths of Hell itself.Diablo II's plot revolves around the efforts of the Dark Wanderer (the corrupted hero of the first game) to reunite with the other Prime Evils and your character's journey to defeat the Prime Evils once and for all. The overall plot is loosely narrated by an elderly man named Marius, who follows the Dark Wanderer on his travels and sees the horrors he unleashes as Diablo increasingly gains control over him.An expansion pack, Lord of Destruction, added a fifth act set on the snowy Mount Arreat, two new character classes (the Druid and Assassin), and allowed the game to play at an 800x600 resolution.The next sequel, Diablo III, was released in 2012.A remastered version, called Diablo II: Resurrected, was announced on February 2021 and released on September 23, 2021. It includes the base game and the Lord of Destruction expansion.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_10b6b5f7	comment	Cherry Tapping: Using a wand or a staff or other melee weapons as a Necromancer or Sorceress. The Telekinesis spell, particularly in Diablo I, is the ultimate way to cherry tap your enemies. The Sorceress does have access to a spell that adds substantial fire damage to any ranged or melee weapon, potentially turning any weapon (or even her bare fists) into a harbinger of fiery doom. Likewise, the Necromancer, when equipped with any dagger, can perform a special stab that causes incredible poison damage over time. One player tried to play through the game using nothing but the Sorceress' weakest, most basic spell. The Amazon is said to be able to beat Diablo with a broken short bow on Hell difficulty. The Druid can have his ravens peck the Big Bad to death. It only takes about 30 minutes of realtime for Normal difficulty...

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_10dafb12	comment	Flaming Sword: The Archangel Tyrael used a sword that burned with holy flames, before Baal wrestled it away. The sorceress can enchant weapons with fire. Of course, this ability is almost completely useless in solo play, due to their Squishy Wizard status. But with the right gear and Minmaxing, they can dish out 100k+ damage per hit turning them somewhat into Glass Cannons dealing more damage than just about anything else in the game. Not that a sorceress's weapon actually appears to flame; it just turns bright red. Incidentally, there's actually unused flaming sword animations for the Paladin in the game files. And it does look as cheesy as one would imagine.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_115d318	comment	And Then John Was a Zombie: At the end of Diablo, the hero defeats the titular boss and jams its soulstone in his/her own forehead to contain it. This results in the hero becoming the new Big Bad in Diablo II. This was later retconned in Diablo II by saying that said hero was more or less mindraped into doing so. It's uncertain how long Tal Rasha held out containing Baal this way, but considering what happens in Diablo II, it's probably safe to say that anyone who fights demons succumbs to this in some degree.

Even the narrator of Diablo II (Marius) is killed in the end. Supplementary material for Diablo III confirms that at least some of the heroes of the second game have also been killed not outside battle, notably the Sorceress, who mentors the DIII Wizard until being murdered by the Assassin. The rest have been implied to pass away by the time the next game rolls in.

He's extremely fragile, going down in two or three hits, but depending on your build he can easily One-Hit Kill you, at least on Normal difficulty. He also has fantastic range (well over your character's sight range), meaning new players often die to him before they even see him.

However, as the zones are sorted according to the Sorting Algorithm of Evil, only two waypoints are typically used: one in the town, the other in the most advanced zone so far. In addition, there's the Town Portal scroll, though as the name implied, the scrolls primarily send you back to town (which you would need to do often in order to sell off your old or excess gear, repair the gear you were using, and resupply on essentials such as potions, ammunition and Scrolls of Identify or Town Portal.

The general peninsulas for Diablo 2 are something along the lines of: Tristram for 1-15 Tomb runs for 15-20 Cow level for 20-25 Baal Runs on varying difficulty modes for 25 on. Getting a Bug Rush to Act 4 in Hell Mode at level 24+ can get you to level 65+ in mere minutes. There's also an Ascended Glitch that lets you equip items to gain stats, which lets you equip even better items.

Weak, easily breakable, expensive to repair clubs: but if you need to use it as a club, you're probably doing it wrong, though they often apply impressive elemental damage to their attacks. One particular unique staff, the "Ribcracker", gives no bonuses to skills but instead has several +damage or +attack speed modifiers. It is surprisingly good for Spam Attack builds such as Zealot Paladins or Werewolf Druids.

Cue the second game, where the hero is completely overtaken by Diablo who wears his body like a cloak. While this counts as Demonic Possession, it is implied that the process was gradual and did not rely solely on magic, but also at least partially on the personal influence and inherent malice of the demon. The same story also happened in the past with Tal Rasha and Baal.

This being Diablo, you can imagine how well that went. Not only that, but players figured out ways to kill monsters that are immune to all elements, monsters that cannot even be targeted (tip: damage reflection) and even monsters that cannot be targeted and are immune to all damage and do not have any attack that would trigger damage reflection. There are even four different ways to do so: resurrect monsters with "burn" damage which bypasses resistances and attacks hit points directly; find the item that summons instakill reanimates on your side when you kill enemies; find the item that summons a certain boss whose death animation is coded to autokill nearby monsters on your side and let it "expire"; or use a bugged passive in combination with Open Wounds to cause the monster to take physical damage despite being immune to it.

When you hunt down Nihlathak to prevent him from handing over the Relic of the Ancients so that he can get to the Worldstone unopposed by the Ancients, it turns out as the battle begins that he's already handed it over. And when you finally battle and defeat Baal in the Worldstone Chamber, it turns out in the end that he has already corrupted the Worldstone, forcing Tyrael to destroy it to prevent humanity from being enslaved by Hell (and as it turns out, inadvertently unleashing humanity's true power upon the world again).

In fact, this effect is tripled: There is a moment of silence after Tyrael charges up the sword (and a slowmotion effect when he throws it) that reaches its pinnacle when the sword enters the stone. Then the dimensions around the stone start to ripple. The stone slowly disintegrates, and as it reaches its ends, it builds up to a final explosion, this explosion is preluded by the now familiar pre-explosion warping sound. But then it turns out that there is a second, even louder explosion, that comes after a softer explosion, the softer explosion thus itself becomes the pre-explosion warp.

For some reason, the kind, generous, armed knights were more inspiring to the populace than the monks. They faded from view once Zakarum no longer put a lot of effort into converting people, only to make a comeback when the Prime Evils started attacking the mortal world, and Zakarum started converting again. This time, anyone inconvertible was deemed evil and killed. A small band, including any paladin player characters, chose to go rogue, and directly confront the Prime Evils. They later discovered that the church they served was corrupt, and had to face several enemies that were themselves examples of this trope.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_260926c3	comment	Failure Is the Only Option: The unnamed protagonist is met with failure at every turn due to arriving ever so slightly too late to have stopped the villain from doing what they were trying to do. Act 1: The hero arrives too late to catch Diablo in his new body and Andariel is successful in delaying his venture to the east to go after Diablo. Act 2: The hero arrives in what couldn't have been more than a few minutes after Diablo got there and freed his brother, which is precisely what you were trying to stop him from doing. They leave Duriel there to delay the character's pursuit. Act 3: You make it to Mephisto mere moments after he activates the power of the soulstones on his brother Diablo and opens a portal to hell for him to escape to, staying behind himself to delay the player's pursuit. Act 4: You actually make it to Diablo and kill him before he does anything too terrible, but that's only because he wasn't actually trying to do anything to Sanctuary at that point. And Baal was still in Sanctuary doing his own thing (although, fortunately, he didn't manage to retrieve his soulstone or begin screwing over Sanctuary until some time after Diablo's defeat). Act 5: Halfway through, you arrive just too late to interrupt Baal from getting an object that will allow him to walk right through the front door of the Worldstone Keep. You then get to Baal and - surprise, surprise - he doesn't seem to have corrupted the Worldstone yet. You fight him and defeat him thinking that you arrived just in time to stop the world from being destroyed, but wait! Tyrael then tells you that the mere act of Baal touching the Worldstone corrupted it completely, meaning that after the fight you find out that yet again you arrived too late, once again by mere minutes at the very most. The entire quest you set out on in the beginning of the game turns into failure after failure. Sure, you destroy 5 of the most powerful evil beings in existence, but not before they succeed in doing the very thing that they set out to do in the first place. And let's not forget Diablo is using the body of the Warrior from the first game.

In the end, he kills the demon (actually, his human host) and plunges the stone containing his soul into himself, with hopes that he will be able to contain the demon's power. All in all, a reasonable ending. Now, cut to Diablo II. It is revealed that he couldn't resist it. He became Diablo, destroyed Tristram, set himself free, and is now leading his demonic hordes to destroy the world. Well, crap. It was actually revealed that by the time you face Diablo in the first Diablo game, you're already under his control. The entire point of Diablo's plotting in the first game was for him to find a stronger host body. He reckoned, correctly, that any being strong enough to fight his/her way down to him, and then "slay" him was exactly what he needed. The manual to Lord of Destruction even points out how every time people thought it was over, the brothers just kept reemerging. The expansion of the sequel isn't much better. You manage to smash Mephisto and Diablo's soulstones! Except that Baal is still left unchecked, and he's figured out the location of the source of the soulstones, the Worldstone. Oh, and he manages to convince one of the NPCs to give him a Plot Coupon, meaning free access to the Worldstone for him. By the time you catch up to and kill Baal, Tyrael comes down and notifies you that Baal's corruption of the Worldstone means that the only way to prevent the entire Realm from becoming an outpost of Hell is to destroy the Worldstone. Not even Tyrael himself knows what will happen afterwards. All you can do is enter the portal he opens for you.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_2804d516	comment	Master of None: The Druid is sometimes accused of being a Master Of None. He uses elemental magic, nature summons, and has shapeshifting for melee. However, his magic is weaker than the sorceress', often with huge timers placed on them. His summons are limited to 1, 3, or 5 damaging minions, while the Necromancer can have somewhere around 40 skeletons total. His melee skills are up to the task, but since his were-forms have limited durations, he has to worry about turning back into a human mid-battle.

Items with abilities that associated with a particular - such as deep green for poison - reflected those colors on the character's model, as well. Handled ingeniously by splitting the models into different sections and sprites to have more combinations of equipment. Which ends up causing different parts of the character's body to be dyed in accordance with the item.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae	type	Awesome, but Impractical
Diablo II (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae	comment	Awesome, but Impractical: The druid's Armageddon spell can be used while in werewolf form and causes a rain of meteors to follow you, but the meteors hit randomly and do very little damage compared to the sorceress ones. Not to mention acquiring it requires putting points in pretty much all of the elemental skills, regardless of whether you're going to use them or not (and, if you're a werewolf, you won't use any of them). The Barbarian can pull the badass trick of dual-wielding throwing weapons. This has only been successfully utilized by a select few individuals for Player vs Monster or PvP due to how limited one's choices for dealing consistent damage with them are. The Sorceress' awesome-looking Thunder Storm is Exactly What It Says on the Tin but even maximum-twinked damage from it is relatively pitiful compared to more boring utility lightning skills. She can also activate a skill that leaves fire in her wake wherever she walks that when used, even if you again take max-twinked damage into account, is effectively cosmetic. The Necromancer's iron golem. It turns a metal item into a golem, with stats based on the item used. The problem being you have to have said item to start, and armor especially takes up a lot of inventory space. There's also how magic items are randomly generated so most items will be total junk, meaning if you plan to use the skill and have a good magic item you should definitely save it for a rainy day. The Necromancer's Bone Wall and Bone Prison were this during the early release of the game. The former raised a wall that block passage of monsters and the latter locked a monster in place. The side effect was that your own minions will attack the wall and the prison because their were insulted that bone were used in such manner. A later patch stopped the minions from attacking them and synergy bonuses render the skills more useful. The Amazon's Impale skill is this. It's the most powerful physical attack of her arsenal. At maximum rank, it delivers a whooping +770% physical damage and spears are already very high damaging weapons. However, it's painfully slow as Hell and can only affect one monster at a time. Adding to this, there's a good chance that the weapon will reach zero durability, breaking it entirely unless it's indestructible. And last but not the least, it doesn't receive any synergies from other skills. Fortunately, Diablo II: Ressurected made it a little more usable, by adding a slow effect on hit and making the attack uninterrupted. The Sunder Charms introduced in Diablo II: Resurrected work on this concept. Monsters are no longer immune to the Charm element's attacks! However, it comes at the cost of your own resistance to that element being highly lowered. Also, the Sunder effect simply treats immunities as a 95% resistance to the element, so the player character not only needs to be extra careful due to them being much more fragile, but their attacks are going to deal Scratch Damage at best without complementary equipment that further reduces said resistances. Also, they only drop on Terror Zones in Hell difficulty, so, unless it's not your first character or you take advantage of multiplayer, you still have to get past Hell difficulty without it at least once.

With the most recent patch, even in subsequent battles, on higher difficulties she has a better chance of dropping runes than most enemies, and probably the best chance proportional to the amount of effort needed to find and kill her. In addition to being useful in their own right, runes have also become the standard trade commodity of the Battle.net community.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_345cf4e1	comment	No Hero Discount: Ultimately played with: as in the first game, you have to pay for everything, regardless of your heroic deeds. However, there are four quests (one each in Acts I, II, III, and V) that will lower the prices the shopkeepers charge for purchasing their wares. Even Tyrael and the two merchants in Act IV will charge money, though they at least have an excuse. Tyrael charges because he's an angel, and because of the pact, cannot directly intervene on behalf of humanity. There are similar rules for the two human merchants in the Pandemonium fortress with Tyrael, though by default they do give a 10% discount for player characters. The official Diablo II online database lampshades this humorously:

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_36249acd	type	Lethal Joke Character
Diablo II (Video Game) / int_36249acd	comment	Lethal Joke Character: The Assassin has a skill called Blade Fury which is weak in comparison to other traps the Assassin can set and receives barely a better base damage to mana cost ratio if you spend more skill points into it. The catch of this skill is that it gets stronger the stronger you get yourself as it inflicts 75% weapon damage to enemies. This becomes even more impressive when you realize that it also causes the traits of your weapons like elemental damage as well as the traits you add to it by other means like armor or skills. So if your weapon possesses Mana Steal you have a ranged attack that refills your mana as long as it hits, if your weapon possesses Knockback it will push enemies away from you and if your weapon possesses the ability to randomly cast spells it will cast that spell with a similar ratio where it hits and it costs almost no mana at all. The downsides of it are that you can't move while you use it (you can't move while you cast most spells anyway), it only hits single enemies as long as it doesn't cast other spells and enemies are still able to avoid or block it (though as evasions and blocks are often tied to an animation they might be hit by the next blade as soon as they recover from defending). This is an example of a literal Death of a Thousand Cuts for bosses outside of the screen caused by a Spam Attack.

The Druid can be as well, but certain builds (especially those that focus on shapeshifting) are more durable. Despite being squishy by his stats, a Necromancer who focuses on summons is easily among the safest of heroes, having several tons of undead flesh and bone between him and anything nasty. Highly recommended for fresh solo characters, who must go it without hand-me-downs. Sorceresses focusing on Energy Shield can accomplish exceptional feats of durability as well, but it's much harder and much less common. For enemies, there's the Summoner, who can deal lot of damage to you from a long distance but goes down pretty easily, if you can manage to get through the multitude of weaker enemies surrounding him to actually hit him.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_3ac5110b	comment	Unintentionally Unwinnable: If you lose everything, then you can still go back to where you died and pick up your body. Since it's a pain without your best weapons, you may decide to just quit the game and reload it instead. Doing this too many times causes the game to say "Bad Dead Bodies". There is no indication anywhere that this will happen. Why people run into the "Bad Dead Bodies" problem: if you die multiple times, pick up your first corpse with all of your items on it, but don't have enough inventory space to equip them all, the remainder stays on your corpse. If you then die again, then your items are now split among two corpses. The game only saves the corpse with the most valuable items on it. Some useless items have a grossly inflated sales price. This may not literally make the game unwinnable, but losing almost all of your items in Hell difficulty can end your quest right there. This is considered a feature and it is the reason why most people simply quit and reload when they die once, and pick up their corpse in town.

Those Rogues who didn't become demons can be seen dead on various torture devices throughout the Jail below the monastery, and judging by the state of their bodies, what happened to them was not pleasant. What Baal did to Marius was pretty cold-blooded too. Instead of simply seizing the soulstone from Marius and killing him quickly, Baal used an illusion to disguise himself as Tyrael, forced Marius to relive his horrific adventure with Diablo, and convinced Marius to give up the soulstone willingly... and then revealed his true colors before finally killing Marius.

Baal's response is to calmly tell him he will take his proposal "into consideration". He then summons tendrils of demonic energy that go inside the herald and make him pop like a grape. Baal then mockingly says "it seems your terms...are not acceptable." and laughs and laughs as his army storms the city.

Still, why would you think your willpower can stand up to the devil, who also happens to be immortal so he'll win anyway?It is now known that the random warrior is actually the other son of the skeleton king and the older brother of the prince that Diablo took over for a body. Basically, the entire game Diablo was whispering to the warrior to make him think that was the only way to seal him and prevent him from ever being released into the world again, but in contrast to the deranged hero, the audience—and, indeed, the Horadric mage in question—knows better.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_485eb589	comment	The plot of Diablo revolves around a protagonist who seeks to stop the titular demon from destroying the town of Tristram, setting himself free from the cathedral, and leading his demonic hordes to destroy the world. In the end, he kills the demon (actually, his human host) and plunges the stone containing his soul into himself, with hopes that he will be able to contain the demon's power. All in all, a reasonable ending. Now, cut to Diablo II. It is revealed that he couldn't resist it. He became Diablo, destroyed Tristram, set himself free, and is now leading his demonic hordes to destroy the world. Well, crap. It was actually revealed that by the time you face Diablo in the first Diablo game, you're already under his control. The entire point of Diablo's plotting in the first game was for him to find a stronger host body. He reckoned, correctly, that any being strong enough to fight his/her way down to him, and then "slay" him was exactly what he needed. The manual to Lord of Destruction even points out how every time people thought it was over, the brothers just kept reemerging.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_4afad1b9	type	Rare Random Drop
Diablo II (Video Game) / int_4afad1b9	comment	Rare Random Drop: The games feature items that aren't just randomly dropped, but randomly generated from thousands of potential combinations of attributes, special abilities and base weapon types. Runes (items you can place into other items to make them better) are particularly glaring, with some high-level runes having such tiny chances to drop (1 in millions, and even that requires finding enemies even capable of dropping the runes in the first place) that most hard-core players have never seen a legitimate one (ones created by hacks, of course, are another matter entirely). In fact, one person apparently estimated that one has a better chance of getting hit by a falling plane that was struck by lightning than one does of finding the rarest rune. Nobody knows if that estimation is true, but you get the idea. The rune example is fairly straightforward, but it can get much more complex: A base sword, for example, might have an inherent range of say 5 +/- damage and 10 +/- quality. So, just getting a "max" sword would take at least 15 rolls of that sword, of which, the top swords are also rare. Then, the top prefix is "Cruel," which varies between 200-300% added damage. The top suffix is "of Eviscration" which also varies by 20 points. It is estimated that maybe 1 sword has ever existed that was truly "perfect." You would need 10's of thousands of rolls to get a perfect roll, but you would probably need somewhere around 100 million of that sword to get 10k with that roll to even have a chance at the perfect stats. And then, there's the "Ethereal" version, which is 1/3 as common as the regular version. Only 1 300% Cruel, Ethereal, Elite class, 2 Socket sword has ever been found. Diablo II includes many items that, when equipped, increase the odds of an item drop, notably socketing an item with perfect topaz gems. Some players traded for as much of this equipment as they could cram onto themselves, and went hunting; the Barbarian had an edge over any other character in this respect, because the optimum item-finding equipment package requires dual-wielding a pair of enchanted broadswords, which only the barbarian can do, and the barbarian had a skill that basically amounted to "trigger the random drop again".

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_4c123f8a	comment	Do Not Touch the Funnel Cloud: The Druid class has a few egregious examples, but the most offensive is the Hurricane skill, which is one of the Level 30 tree's-end techniques. Plainly, it summons a frickin hurricane that you then walk around in. Not only are you completely unharmed by it, neither are your allies. Enemies are not sucked in; instead, anything that comes into contact takes significant damage and dies. The lore says the druid is unharmed because he is in the eye of the cyclone. Also interesting are the actual Tornado and especially Twister spells: the latter produces three tornadoes that are so tiny as to miss targets two druid lengths in front of you, and getting hit only stuns you for a fraction of a second. The former correctly deals damage around it, where 'around it' is defined as the size of a large monster, and because it deals damage over time it cannot even interrupt monsters. This spell set goes nicely with the waist height volcano, but it is no surprise the sequel features Energy Twister, a tornado of whirling magic!.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_4c3f14e0	comment	You Are Too Late: Since Diablo II features the player trying to chase down Baal and the Dark Wanderer, respectively, Acts II and III both end on this note. Duriel, the Act II boss, taunts you saying "Looking for Baal?" Mephisto points this out as well when you confront him at the end of Act III: "You're too late! Ahahahahaha!" It happens again — twice — in Lord of Destruction. You have to stop Baal from getting to the Worldstone or all is lost. When you hunt down Nihlathak to prevent him from handing over the Relic of the Ancients so that he can get to the Worldstone unopposed by the Ancients, it turns out as the battle begins that he's already handed it over. And when you finally battle and defeat Baal in the Worldstone Chamber, it turns out in the end that he has already corrupted the Worldstone, forcing Tyrael to destroy it to prevent humanity from being enslaved by Hell (and as it turns out, inadvertently unleashing humanity's true power upon the world again).

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_4c709317	comment	Useless Useful Spell: Averted for the most part, although Classic Diablo II played this straight. Minion-based Necromancer builds had to rely on golems because of how weak skeletons were and most Sorceresses had to wait until they were level 18-24 to have a single skill worth putting more than a single prerequisite point into. While at first sight anything that has to do with freezing, stunning, knocking back, fleeing, or converting won't work on anyone important, they DO work well on those "anyone important"'s minions, and a well built character (and their merc) can take on even the scariest uniques one on one if the minions are not joining the fight. The synergy system succeeded in averting this trope, although certain skills such as Psychic Hammer and Blade Sentry are still viewed as useless beyond the first few character levels.

On the other hand, it was apparently the only prison of the three that wasn't subverted from within by the Prime Evils- sucks to be Tal Rasha, but it did keep Baal trapped until Diablo showed up to break him out.

This allowed new players to gain access to certain areas without completing the prerequisite quests: for example, getting to the Canyon of the Magi without killing the Summoner, or to the Durance of Hate without ever assembling Khalim's Will. This was nerfed in the 1.10 patch. An allegedly popular set of challenges are the 1@17, 2@20, 3@30 Diablo kills — basically, killing the final boss on a difficulty setting at the earliest possible level. To use the Hell entrance in Normal difficulty requires a character level of 17, to access Nightmare difficulty requires a level of 20, and Hell difficulty is accessible at 30. Each challenge is to be attempted solo, though you are not required to attempt or complete any of the earlier challenges to attempt the coveted 3@30. There's also the literal lowest-level-possible challenge, which can be attempted only using outdated patches. And we have the Ironman challenges of various difficulty, the impossible no-items-no-skills-no-stats challenge, and of course any build or item choice less than optimal will be challenging at least to defend against hecklers.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_52475ffd	comment	Cutting Off the Branches: The series contains a minor example of this. The first game allows you to choose one of three characters to play, a male Warrior, a female Rogue, and a male Sorcerer. After defeating Diablo, this character embeds his soulstone into his or her forehead in an attempt to contain Diablo forever. It doesn't work, and the hero is possessed by Diablo, becoming Diablo II's villain. Although never explicitly stated, it is pretty clear that the Warrior is canonically the one who did so, as the character is male (unlike the rogue) and white (so not the sorcerer). If you look very carefully you can find hints about what happened to the Rogue and Sorcerer, but they clearly didn't do as well as their meat shield buddy, if "possessed by Satan" can be considering doing well. It is implied that the rogue and sorcerer go on to become minor bosses for earlier quests (Blood Raven and The Summoner respectively).

Just put a single point in the skill, and the "+x all skills" bonuses on your equipment end up giving you just as much of a bonus as actually maxing the skill would have in the first place.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_5405b144	comment	The Sunder Charms introduced in Diablo II: Resurrected work on this concept. Monsters are no longer immune to the Charm element's attacks! However, it comes at the cost of your own resistance to that element being highly lowered. Also, the Sunder effect simply treats immunities as a 95% resistance to the element, so the player character not only needs to be extra careful due to them being much more fragile, but their attacks are going to deal Scratch Damage at best without complementary equipment that further reduces said resistances. Also, they only drop on Terror Zones in Hell difficulty, so, unless it's not your first character or you take advantage of multiplayer, you still have to get past Hell difficulty without it at least once.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_549cd62d	type	Level Grinding
Diablo II (Video Game) / int_549cd62d	comment	Level Grinding: The series revels in this. Diablo II online is basically made of powerleveling. 75% of characters start off like this: Get glitched by a high-level player to beat the game on the highest difficulty at level 1, join a game, go to the second-last room and wait for the other characters to kill things, exit game, go back to step 2. Maybe 0.1% of people actually play the game like you're intended to. Even ignoring online play, this is pretty much a necessity. Try going through the game without level grinding, you probably won't access even a single rank of the highest level skill. Now try and go through the game on Nightmare with that character. If you play on your own (single player), you will not even get enough experience to keep up with the monsters, forcing you to stop and grind. If you play only in full (eight player) online games, you very quickly outlevel the monsters and stop gaining more levels unless you skip ahead. In numerical terms, you gain over five times as much experience in a full game. Of course, console commands can trick the game into thinking one's playing a game with any number of players between 1 and 8 while actually going solo. Might make the enemies tougher, but as was mentioned above you'll outlevel them quickly enough. In single and multiplay, the better gear becomes more important to keeping up than character stats. Because everything Randomly Drops, level grinding is just a byproduct of farming.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_54ec2f0c	comment	Not Completely Useless: The Paladin ability "Holy Bolt". Virtually useless unless you're focusing on healing teammates or damaging Undead. Of course, only a 1/4 of all the monsters in the game are Undead so you're helpless against everything else, but Holy Bolt does smash the daylights out of Undead. If you spec out a Paladin to maximize Holy Bolt's healing properties, you won't be able to hit any monsters past Act 3 Normal. On the other hand, with the right gear (Faster Cast Rate rings for the win) you can heal 500+ HP a second. Not bad for a game that allegedly doesn't have a healing class. Though the Sorceress's Blaze (which makes fire appear where you walk) is mostly useless, it makes an effective kiting tactic against Duriel. More than most classes, the Sorceress desperately needs to stay out of his "Instant Death" Radius; with Blaze, you can get him to chase you around in a circle in your trail of fire until he eventually dies.

Proceed to grind a specific dungeon/boss hundreds of times looking for powerful items. Trade those items for even better items. Level Grind to 99 by doing a different dungeon/boss hundreds of times. Continue grinding for items. Trade more. Perhaps buy some for real money off third party item sweatshops. Eventually after many many hours you have the best and most optimal item setup for your character, with which you can... grind for items even faster.

The official website states that his own purposes are often aligned with those of the forces of Light. He may be on to something, as the years he's spent in the crypt studying the dark arts make him much more likely to resist being corrupted by Diablo's evil like the heroes of the first game. You even find his apprentice in a random event in Diablo III, carrying on his master's legacy of using necromancy for the greater good, and he comes across as being rather noble. According to the manual his order are masters of keeping themselves level-headed and strive for perfect balance. He is on the side of good simply because evil is more likely to win. In other words, the trope is played perfectly straight; Dark may not be good, but it sure as hell isn't evil. The manual also states that the fact that they don't fear death and they seek only to maintain balance means that they're the only mage clan that has never been corrupted by demonic influence.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_5b81ca8d	comment	Disc-One Nuke: The game allows you to trade between your characters online. One neat trick is to make Khalim's Will, which is usable by characters of any level (because it's a quest item) and provides obscene amounts of damage for most if not all characters below level 25 (when you acquire it, you're generally around level 21-24). Enchant Skill, while normally a relatively useless sorceress skill that adds fire damage to a target's weapon, with incredible amounts of + skills, can get fire damage added up to somewhere between 3000 and 9000. It's still somewhat useless by the time you can get it there barring a very specific build. However, joining a normal game and giving that much damage to a character in normal mode essentially means anyone can go through the whole of normal one or two-shotting every monster with a regular short bow. To put it in perspective, Diablo only has about 14,000 HP on Normal (though fire resistance does factor in) and Baal, the boss of the expansion roughly twice that. The most a regular enemy has is about 3000. Makes early level grinding in Hardcore a breeze.

There is also a Necromancer curse called Iron Maiden that causes enemies to be damaged by their own attacks. It also multiplies the reflected damage. Unfortunately for players, enemies can use it as well, which spelled doom for many a melee character relying on physical damage (it was so powerful that as of 1.13 Oblivion Knights can no longer use it).

Some of the Uniques aimed for the Necromancer were Scythes adorned with skulls. And the lack of effectiveness from the scythes come more from the fact that slow weapons with heavy damage being largely useless, due to the fact it means you take a long time to recover and thus being incapable of effectively dodging insta-kill attacks (like some creatures' ability to cast an uber powered version of the Sorceress inferno, and some bosses' attacks). Still, it is said a Concentration specced Barbarian would be able to pull it off... Scythes (particularly War Scythes) are effective weapons for Druids since they get a Fast (or Very Fast) attack speed. They work especially well with the Shapeshifting skill tree.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_6243b83b	comment	Armor and Magic Don't Mix: In a roundabout way. A character's ability to wear a piece of armor (aside from level and any specific class restrictions on an item) more often than not depends on how many stat points are in STR. The result is that the 'pure' mage classes (necromancers and sorceresses) can't wear the heaviest armor because the player has likely put most of their stat points into INT. In other words, they can't wear the armor because they're squishy, and they're squishy because they train their minds more than their bodies. This actually wound up being subverted more often than not. Due to players wanting to spend the minimum amount of stat points in anything other than Vitality, the run speed penalty on medium and heavy armor, and the comparatively small difference in defense between the light and heavy armors, end game it was not uncommon to see members of any class all running around in archon plates and carrying monarch shields.

It's no longer available as a learnable skill since the skill trees are now strictly segregated by class, but the game does include a compact storage system for carrying a large number of spell scrolls for this purpose. It always leads to the town of the current act. If you used one in the final battle vs. Diablo, he'd cast bone prison on it while you were gone, and you'd teleport into a trap. A common multiplayer strategy was to use the portals of a party member instead of yours, as the portal would only disappear after its creator took it; teammates could use it back and forth as many times as needed. Thus one could make a semi-permanent teleport to an area with just two party members and two scrolls - and since portals are labeled by player, its rather easy to perform.

By level 10, you'll be carrying around (and paying) thousands of gold pieces. Between players, the gold piece was even more devalued than it was with vendors. While a vendor might pay 140 gold for a single low-quality gemstone, already a pretty silly exchange, you'd have a hard time convincing a player to part with a single chipped gem even for all the gold he could physically carry (several hundred thousand).

What makes this example especially annoying is that, besides its incredible length (its area is several times a regular level), there's a chance for it to be filled of Stygian Dolls. Good luck making through that incredibly long level while fighting them every three rooms. Replace "difficulty" with "tedium" and you have the Maggot Lair in Act II. You have a giant maze of hallways, each a single sprite wide. As in, no enemies or allies can cross another enemy or ally; everything blocks everything's pathnote unless it's an item or a projectile, of course. This means you are forced to fight anything in front of you. There are lot of things in front of you. Only one melee fighter can attack one enemy at a time. Decided to bring one of the town's lancing mercenaries with you? Well expect them to be either bored or dead. If you had the misfortune of going the wrong way, well then it looks like you're going to have to go through said process all over again. Needless to say, it's not one of the game's more attractive experiences. The Kurast Sewers are huge. So huge, in fact, that they can be entered from both Upper Kurast and the Kurast Bazaar, which aren't exactly small confined areas. If the random generation screws you over and/or you choose the wrong entrance, it will take you a while to find the lever to the second level.

In act 2 you're expected to kill Baal before he can escape his prison, but run into a giant bug called Duriel instead. Diablo is the final boss of act 4, but the expansion comes and Baal turns out to be the true final boss of the game instead.

Fortunately a one-time reset was added in a patch, and a certain late game item also allows this, making it slightly less jarring.

For completing the game a title will be put in front of your character's name, differing depending on the difficulty level and if you opted to played in the high risk "Hardcore" mode, as well as if you have the Lord of Destruction expansion pack. There is also a Bonus Quest where you get to fight beefed up versions of the three main bosses (the Ubers) all at the same time. Players who manage this feat are rewarded with powerful items, but also a "Standard of Heroes" item that serves no use other than a trophy. There is also a trophy ear you will get if you kill another player in PvP. One of the expansion pack's later quests has the purely cosmetic reward of personalizing a single item by adding your name to it.

For most of the game's lifespan, the only way to be strong enough for higher difficulties was to save skill points until you had unlocked high-level skills, as low-level skills were too weak even with heavy investment, and allocate stat points based on what you would need for Hell mode. Fortunately, this was fixed in a later patch, with low-level skills providing damage boosts to higher-level ones and the ability to reset stat/skill distributions.

To make things worse, all three of the player characters from the first game didn't make it out of things in one piece — the Rogue was corrupted by Andariel and became Blood Raven, the Mage was driven insane by Diablo himself and became the Summoner, and the Warrior? As a result of sticking that soulstone into his own head at the end of the first game, he's become Diablo's new host. When Diablo is defeated again, his older brother Baal corrupts the Worldstone, forcing the archangel Tyrael to destroy it to prevent it from being used to control humanity, obliterating Mount Arreat and a good portion of the surrounding barbarian homeland with it.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_812ee32b	type	Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards
Diablo II (Video Game) / int_812ee32b	comment	Linear Warriors, Quadratic Wizards: As with nearly all branches of RPG's that host both Fighter and Mage types, Diablo II plays this pretty straight. In early levels your physical, combat class will sweep the floor with any Mooks standing in their way. Later levels see the caster become extremely powerful, especially those who went with Frost or Cold effects. Not... really. Casters are easier since they depend less on items (most Fighters basically require quite good items to succeed, while some casters can get by with any old thing), and the Sorceress has free access to Teleport which makes a huge difference, but for the toughest bosses, a Fighter is always better. A "Smiter" can beat Uber Tristram with relatively mediocre items; for a Sorceress, it's almost impossible without preposterously rare items. Averted in PvP: every single class has several builds to duel with at each PvP level cap. There are melee builds dubbed "caster killers" for how effectively they can trash Necromancers, casting Druids and Sorceresses. This is in part due to a piece of armor which gives any class the ability to teleport, a skill normally reserved for the Sorceress. Even low-level duels are well-matched between caster and melee. But only with Enigma.note A basically-impossible-to-legitimately-obtain armor that can give anyone the Sorceress's Teleport skill. Before the expansion, caster classes shot ahead of fighters early on and then hit a hard cap at about level 50 after their main offensive spell was maxed, at which point fighter classes only got started. The sheer amount of elemental resistances compared to physical resistances was not helping, notably the fact that pretty much the entire final Act in Hell difficulty was 75% fire resistant. The only viable endgame caster builds involved merciless exploitation of percentage based damage (Static Field, Corpse Explosion, Iron Maiden) or bugs (Blessed Hammer) while flat damage spells were only used to finish off enemies reduced to a sliver by Static Field or to kill a handful of enemies at the start of a run so you could get some revived minions up. The expansion aimed to fix this by introducing large numbers of +skill level items, previously a very rare modifier that tended to come mostly on bad items. The game tilted in favour of casters, at first because it was easy enough to promote area of effect abilities, then because later patches made the game much harder to the point where melee builds without godly items stood no chance. Meanwhile new items solved the early game struggles of caster classes and provided ways around elemental immunities, enabling them to dominate pretty much the entire game from start to finish. The necromancer before the expansion had spells with awful scaling effects. His poison spells did not gain damage per second when you spent skill points into them, only duration, meaning you could kill anything... over the course of 30 seconds. In an action RPG. The worst of the worst were poison skeletal mages which ended up doing literally 1 damage per second for 3 minutes.

The more players are playing in the same game at the same time, the more powerful the monsters become — thereby making each player proportionately weaker than if he was playing on his own. With a good team setup, synergy means the players still come out ahead in that race. In an interesting note, players can make the game think they're in a party while in Single Player thanks to console commands. While this makes the monsters tougher, it also causes them to drop more items and yield more experience. With a good build, it is entirely possible to beat the game solo in a difficulty setting meant for up to 8 players.

Once this requirement is fulfilled, the whole screen shakes and the words 'Diablo walks the earth' appear on the screen. The Pandemonium Event involves the collection of the three Keys that will open the portal to Ãœber Tristram, where the three Ãœber Prime Evils reside. The first step is to get Keys of Hate, Terror and Destruction, which have a low chance to drop from the Summoner, the Countess and Nihlathak on Hell difficulty. Transmuting them in the Horadric Cube in Harrogath opens a portal that leads to Ãœber Izual, Ãœber Duriel or Lilith (chosen randomly). Upon death, they drop Baal's Eye, Mephisto's Brain and Diablo's Horn (respectively), which are required to open the portal to Ãœber Tristram, where high level players could fight stronger versions of the Prime Evils (Ãœber Baal, Ãœber Mephisto and Pandemonium Diablo), all at the same time.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_88e5fcbc	comment	One-Hit Polykill: The Amazon has a Bow skill called Pierce, which causes arrows to pass through multiple enemies. When combined with Strafe, which splits an arrow to hit multiple targets... carnage ensues. In older versions, this produced amusing results when used with the "guided arrow" skill - the arrow would hit the target, fly out the other side, and immediately turn around to have another go (and possibly repeat up to 5 times). Some projectile weapons also have the Piercing Attack trait, rated 1 to 100% chance to pierce a target. The Buriza-Do Kyanon unique crossbow was the preferred weapon of many Amazons, called "Burizons", who specialized in Strafe and (when it worked) Guided Arrow. As well as this works with bows, it works much better when the Amazon uses a Javelin. Her Lightning Fury skill makes a number of lightning bolts fly out towards the enemies and at high levels you get a very high number of bolts. Combine it with piercing and the javelin will go on to hit another target... and release the entire volley of lightning bolts again. And again. And again. The more enemies you have together the faster all of them will drop dead, making this perhaps the ultimate example.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_8d4fcaa5	comment	Self-Imposed Challenge: Various gimmick runs exist, for example a Necromancer run where the player avoids clicking on monsters as much as possible, instead just letting an army of skeletons and the odd golem do all the dirty work. One player had a character called IreneTheInfirm: a hardcore sorceress who could not wear or wield anything, cast any spells or assign any stat points, and was thus limited to punching away for 1-2 damage a go, using the act 1 mercenary as the main source of damage (who also couldn't use any items). Somehow, Irene ended up killing Andariel. A user on the inc.gamers forum demonstrated the story of Anna Goanna. She was an Amazon-class hardcore, as in "if you die you die permanently," character who completed the game on all difficulty levels with only cracked/low-quality items, a summonable NPC support fighter and a hireling fighter. Some bosses took hours to finish. When she finally beat the last boss on the Harder Than Hard difficulty, her name-personalized cracked sash sold in-game for multiple high-value items. One player, going by the name Sirian, decided to create a whole host of restricted D2 characters, such as Ember, the firebolt-only Sorceress.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_8e0fe5a9	comment	The necromancers base their actions on the notion of a Balance. The novels attempt to (not always successfully) play with this. In one book, the villain is a necromancer who points out that all the necromancers do is fight evil, which doesn't adhere to the concept of a Balance. The hero of the book, another necromancer, continues to fight him, but doesn't bother to explain why he's wrong. In another book, the Balance is interestingly defined not as Good and Evil, but Good and the absence of Evil. It's explained that light and dark are not necessarily good and evil, and while the balance tipping to evil would mean torment, the absence of evil would lead to stagnation. One additional point to consider that the Balance is sometimes portrayed (though not described as) not as being between good and evil, but making sure that neither the angels or the demons of the series gain too much of a foothold in the world, as both are jerks. It just so happens that at the time of the second game, the "evil" forces are much more overt in screwing with mortal reality, and only one angel is bothering to do something.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_8e9cf84e	comment	"Blind Idiot" Translation: The Spanish version had several with the names of the monsters and items: Unraveler — Desenrredador (Untangler) Claw Viper — Garra Viperina (Viper Claw) Overseer — El que todo lo ve (The one that sees everything) Hollow One — Hueco uno (Hole #1, as if we have a hole or hollow labeled "number one") The Necromancer Head items — Translated as "Leader" (well, actually "the leader" - see below), so you got things like "Leader of the Zombies", "Leader of the Untanglers", and "Leader of the Demons" (Hey, isn't it Diablo this one? You've already won the game!) And the infamous Great Poleaxe, translated as "El Gran Pollax", which literally means "The big cock". This, combined with the suffixes and prefixes, may lead to things like "The hard big cock", "The relaxing big cock", and such. For some reason, the Rogues from Act I are called "ArpÃas" (Harpies). The Worldstone gets called during all of Act V as "Mundo de Piedra", which literally means "Stone World". Items with the "scales with character level" modifier have its tooltip saying, instead of anything clarifying it's an Evolving Weapon, the words "muerto viviente" (undead). Considering the game already has Weapon of X-Slaying modifiers, players could wrongly assume that it meant that the modifier only applied when fighting undead enemies. It's easy to know whether an dropped item was already in the vanilla game or was added in the expansion, because all items and monsters added in the expansion have an article at the start of its name. For example, an El rune is called "la runa El" (the El rune), and a Heraldic Shield for the Paladin is called "el escudo herÃ¡ldico" (the Heraldic Shield). Fortunately, a new translation was made for Resurrected, being MUCH better than the original, with any remaining mistakes seemingly existing because of being referenced by the original audio files, which aren't being replaced (such as the old "Garra viperina") or because of attempting retroactive consistency with the Diablo 3 translation (such as "Lidless Wall" being translated now as "Muro vigilante" - the same legendary appeared in 3, and the new translator likely wanted to keep the same name for new players playing 2 for the first time through Resurrected). This didn't prevent some people from complaining, however, mostly because of mere nostalgia, and partly because of laziness to double-check a supposed error. The French version translated the Eldritch Orb as "Orbe d'Eltrich", as in "Eldritch's Orb", probably having no idea what 'eldritch' means (although there is a monster named Eldritch the Rectifier).

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_8f233b1b	comment	Sorting Algorithm of Weapon Effectiveness: As in the first game, the item spread is carefully controlled by which area of the game you're in; the starting levels will give you nothing but light armor, weak weapons of all kinds, and marginally magical items. As you continue through the game, the range of droppable items increases, so that Dagger of Poking you picked up in Act I will eventually be replaced by the Pointy Short Sword of Sharpness in Act II, the Serrated Flamberge of Wounding in Act III, and the Butt-kicking BFS of Evisceration on the highest difficulty setting. This is averted in Hell difficulty mode, where all acts (except act IV) had several optional zones (level 85 zones) where pretty much any item (except for the rarest runes) may drop.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_91479a10	comment	SchrÃ¶dinger's Player Character: In-game, at least. Everyone who was present in the canonical games and expansions has a part in the canon. As a boss.Not counting Multiplayer, this happens in the first two games. In Diablo's Multiplayer, the NPCs keep the same speech, talking to you like if you were the sole one present. This is a complicated example due to the difference between what's seen in-game and what happened according to canon.In the games' canon, all of the heroes were indeed present. The Rogue, Sorcerer and Warrior from the first game show up as Blood Raven, the Summoner, and the Wanderer (possessed by Diablo himself because he is made the one who canonically "defeated" him) in the second. This goes with the completely different onscreen and backstory versions of the setting of the first game; Tristram is supposed to be the capital of the realm, whereas in-game it's a minuscule village, and several adventurers are supposed to be coming to explore the nearby dungeon, when in the game the only possible signs of anyone such other than the Player Character are some remains inside.To complicate things even more, though it's probably a Retcon or continuity error, while the Wanderer was the one who defeated Diablo, his background in the second game contradicts that of the Player Character in the first (who used to live in Tristram, whereas the Wanderer was not known to anyone there), which would imply... well, nothing that makes coherent sense, but it makes the relationship to this trope even more complicated.Further, each of the three "characters" described in the manual is actually a type of adventurer (a character class in game terms); it's not that there was just one Warrior, Rogue and Sorcerer, the backstory made it clear there were at least potentially several of each coming to Tristram, and indeed the Rogues in the next game speak of others of their number besides Blood Raven having been there. So basically, the game does the trope almost on two levels, but the canon averts it.Diablo III largely avoids anything hard and fast about the heroes of Diablo II, and lampshades the fact that Tristram is so small and run-down for a capital with one of Leoric's journals commenting on that and wondering why Lazarus directed him to make such a place his capital. However, it further confuses the issue of the Wanderer, by making him Aidan, Leoric's eldest son, whereas in earlier lore, Leoric only had the one son — paving over the continuity error with regards to the Wanderer in Tristram by making him someone no-one would actually admit to recognizing after seeing how he'd deteriorated, but also making him a character who previously didn't exist in any capacity.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_91526ff7	type	Absurdly High Level Cap
Diablo II (Video Game) / int_91526ff7	comment	Absurdly High Level Cap: In the original release, the pace of experience slowed down to a crawl by the mid-80s. A handful of people did reach 99, but it took an insanely long time, and most characters would have attained optimal skills long before this. This is because shortly after it was released, Diablo II ended up with hundreds of Level 99 Hardcore Barbarians on Battle.net, much to the chagrin of the game designers who were certain reaching level 99 in Hardcore (where dying even once permanently ended your game) was impossible. Several nerfs to the signature Barbarian skill (Whirlwind) were applied, only for other game-breaking abilities to be uncovered in other character classes. Finally, they simply applied a patch that set all experience gains for level 80 or higher characters to be 1/10th normal, all past level 90 to be 1/100th normal, and past level 95 to be 1/1000th normal (most non-boss enemies, even on Hell difficulty, give only one experience point per kill at that level). By mathematically guaranteeing that players would need to kill 10 enemies per second, 24 hours a day, for nearly a year to go from level 98 to level 99, they finally succeeded in killing off interest in attaining the maximum level. Fortunately, in Resurrected, a new endgame was added in the form of terror zones, where a group of zones (which change every hour) have Level Scaling with the player up to the 96-99 range, which finally allows players past the mid-80s to have a place to kill enemies without experience penalties.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_93d914ad	comment	Health/Damage Asymmetry: Monsters in hell difficulty usually have base attack damage that are around 1/100th of their HP. Maw Fiend: 11128~19782 HP, 81~139 melee attack, 130~160 corpse spit damage Burning Soul: 2008~5059 HP, 42~108 attack damage, (42~108)+(188~282) lightning damage. These damage figures are the result of a game bug which was eventually fixed, but the creature is still very dangerous due to a combination of fast, extremely long range, and high damage lightning attacks that are rapidly spammed, which means a character without maxed lightning resistance in hell difficulty will die extremely quickly. The Necromancer skill Iron Maiden bounces cause enemies to take 6.75x of damage they deal with their melee attacks. It's not an effective skill in Nightmare and Hell difficulties. On the other hand, Oblivion Knights using Iron Maiden was extremely deadly to players that rely on melee attacks, until patch 1.13 removed this skill from this monster. Nihlathak's Corpse Explosion deals only 20% damage in Hell difficulty. Well-geared players still get owned by this badly. Players deals 1/6 damage to other players. As of patch 1.10 and later, monsters have +50% HP, +50% EXP and deals +6.25% damage for each additional player in the game beyond the first. The game does not display flying damage numbers anywhere, just graphical health bars. It's possible that poorly geared characters, that can deal more damage than their own HP, end up having trouble killing monsters in hell difficulty.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_940a5958	comment	Artificial Stupidity: While the enemy AI is okay, the ally AI is definitely not. Hirelings clearly fall into this trope. They don't seem to understand basic concepts like "I should use that door just a few steps from me instead of trying to walk through the wall", they have the annoying habit of wandering around all the time in a world where just walking a few metres triggers a new wave of dozens of enemies. And the Necromancer's minions are even worse, as getting too far from them (and the monsters raised by the Revive skill aren't good at all at following you) makes them disappear. After numerous reports of necromancers getting stuck in a corner by their minions, Blizzard added an Unsummon skill to remove them when needed — and that turned out to not be enough, so now they let players noclip through their own minions. Sometimes, they'll just stand still and won't attack enemies standing near them. Players with access to the Teleport skill, either from the Enigma runeword or charges on another item could get around this, as teleporting gathers all your minions to you.

The third installment makes it explicitly clear that the Prime Evils are willing to work together so long as it suits their individual agendas, but that Hell has never really posed a serious threat to Heaven before because the Prime Evils have never been able to resist the temptation to stab each other in the back a bit too soon.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_9aaf8eca	comment	Crippling Overspecialization: A few of the archetypes. "Smiters" and "Kicksins" rely on combining high crushing blow (takes a large chuck of a foes HP) chances with high attack speed (to get crushing blow off a lot). They tend to be poor in non-boss non-PVP situations. "Summonmancers" are considered by far the easiest class to solo the game with. They can not function at all in PVP unless you're able to perform a successful "tele-stomp" which involves teleporting yourself and all your minions onto someone and killing them with the combined might of their blows. In Hell difficulty, every monster has total immunity to at least one form of attack. If you're playing a character specialized in that form of attack to the exclusion of all others, your life will be... difficult. Single-element sorceresses, and warrior-type characters who deal only physical damage, are the most common victims of this.

In World of Warcraft, you can recover Wirt's Third Leg, a fairly rare and fairly powerful one-handed mace.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_a284511d	comment	Balance Between Good and Evil: The necromancers base their actions on the notion of a Balance. The novels attempt to (not always successfully) play with this. In one book, the villain is a necromancer who points out that all the necromancers do is fight evil, which doesn't adhere to the concept of a Balance. The hero of the book, another necromancer, continues to fight him, but doesn't bother to explain why he's wrong. In another book, the Balance is interestingly defined not as Good and Evil, but Good and the absence of Evil. It's explained that light and dark are not necessarily good and evil, and while the balance tipping to evil would mean torment, the absence of evil would lead to stagnation. One additional point to consider that the Balance is sometimes portrayed (though not described as) not as being between good and evil, but making sure that neither the angels or the demons of the series gain too much of a foothold in the world, as both are jerks. It just so happens that at the time of the second game, the "evil" forces are much more overt in screwing with mortal reality, and only one angel is bothering to do something. Apparently the books make it more confusing than the game. In-game materials and the guidebook make it clear that necromancers are neutral. It's just that when the world is completely full of Always Chaotic Evil demons, and there are not one but three Satan Expys running loose, neutral is right there side by side with good.

The companion can gain Character Levels and be equipped with better gear, but does not replace the Player Party, which consists of other players' characters online. Certain skills allow you to summon these, such as the Amazon's Valkyrie and the Assassin's Shadow Warrior/Master.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_a2dd3c5	comment	My Death Is Just the Beginning: The series features a plan that requires two deaths, masterminded by the eponymous demon himself. It was first hinted at in Diablo II by the fallen angel Izual, who hints that the deaths of the Prime Evils are serving some greater purpose. In Diablo III, the purpose is to get all the defeated Evils, Prime and Lesser, into the same Black Soulstone, which is then jammed into the chest of the daughter Diablo fathered after being killed the first time. This allows Diablo to become the personality in charge of the full power of the Prime Evil.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_a3e24415	type	Video-Game Flamethrowers Suck
Diablo II (Video Game) / int_a3e24415	comment	Videogame Flamethrowers Suck: The Inferno spell which is a flamethrower, complete with short range at low spell levels, low area coverage at all spell levels, no persistent damage, slow-moving flames and it takes a long time to cast and roots you to the spot while you channel and stops when you get hit. Between its weak damage and the danger factor of planting yourself in front of the onrushing enemies that will proceed to stunlock you, this is the worst sorceress spell in the game. The expansion provided the new druid class with an Ice thrower which was useful for no other reason than the very long chill length, providing some much-needed crowd control until players figured out that there's a passive area effect chill spell in the druid's arsenal and most enemies you want to chill are immune to it anyway. The assassin has Wake of Inferno, a summoned turret version of this spell, without the root, but with less range. There is a very cheap runeword that averted this by giving a massive bonus to all fire spells, and to the Inferno spell in particular; like most spells, it could become much more effective as you pumped its effective level up beyond 20, making it a cheap and effective tool that could be acquired by the end of Act 1 and remained useful until everything becomes immune to fire.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_a414c3f0	comment	One-Hit Kill: Some builds are focused around doing so much damage in a single strike that they can kill any monster or opponent in PvP. Notably, the twinked Blizzard Sorceress and the Charging Paladin. It is also technically possible, with perfectly set-up gear and skills, to kill the final boss on the hardest difficulty over the course of several minutes with a single stab from a Necromancer's Poison Dagger skill. Due to a bug in how damage is dealt when Fire-Enchanted monsters explode upon death, they can easily OHK an unprepared player. The mini-boss Nihlathak is infamous for both his potential to drop desirable items and his potential to kill even prepared players in an instant by using the corpses of his dead minions as area-of-effect bombs.

Later on, find the Horadric Malus that was left behind in the rogue monastary. Act II: To open the door to the final stage requires you to complete a long MacGuffin chain. Find a Horadric Scroll in the sewers, then find the Horadric Cube, then find the two pieces of an ancient staff that must then be put together to form a full staff (The Horadric Staff). Horazon's Journal you need to read in the arcane sanctuary also applies as one even though it's not an item your character can grab. Act III: Similar to Act II, to open the door to Mephisto's lair, find the 4 pieces of an ancient flail throughout the Act that must then be put together to form a full flail (Khalim's Will). Act ends with you receiving Mephisto's Soulstone. The optional quests also sends you out to find the Golden Bird, Gidbinn Blade, Lam Essen's Tome MacGuffins. Act IV: Destroy Mephisto's MacGuffin at the nearby Hellforge, but to do it, you need the nearby Hellforge Hammer. The cutscene after finishing Act 4 also shows the player destroying Diablo's MacGuffin. Act V: The Relic of the Ancients isn't a MacGuffin you can obtain, but it's plot relevant for Baal to reach the World Stone. Off-camera, Baal's MacGuffin is destroyed as well.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_ad9559e6	comment	When first killed, Act Bosses (Andariel, Duriel, Mephisto, Diablo and Baal) have a unique drop system where their loot never includes gold, potions, or any equippable items below Rare quality - effectively causing that the first kill (often called "quest drop") can yield much better loot than any subsequent ones. Turns out that, with, Andariel, there was a bug that, if you enter the portal created after her death and talked to Warriv to move to Act 2 (without talking to anyone else), then Save and Quit, she would be permanently stuck in the "quest drop" state, meaning farming her has much better odds of getting powerful Uniques and Set Items than any other bossnote For the record, Duriel, Mephisto, Diablo and Baal can also be stuck in this state, but Andariel is the only one that can be bugged without the help of another player. When Resurrected was released, Andariel was changed so that she is always quest-dropping regardless of what you donote Duriel, Mephisto, Diablo and Baal still work like before, with the quest drop bug still accessible.

One trick to get around this in a solo or less jerky server is to just drop things on the ground back at base (although you need to stuff everything away before logging out,) which also defangs the only real bite that the game's Death Is a Slap on the Wrist had. Lord of Destruction turned inventory management into a legitimate part of the game with charms. Charms are magical objects of varying size that bestow their (totally cumulative) enchantments on you simply by being carried. This means that a player can choose between having more free inventory space, or having more enchantments from charms.

The Amazon skill Magic Arrow creates arrows out of Mana and completely removes the need for a quiver. One unique bow, aptly named Endlesshail, has the property that it fires Magic Arrows as its default attack and does not cost any mana.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_b798d379	comment	One Stat to Rule Them All: In most cases, non-Vitality point assignment is only recommended for meeting equipment requirements. What happened to avoiding getting hit, and so being able to add to strength and agility? Well, all right, so far it's only Amazons who get to enjoy Slow Missiles... Nearly every single character build follows this stat format: Strength: as little as possible to meet equipment requirements Dexterity: as above, or exactly enough for maximum block. Vitality: PUT EVERYTHING YOU HAVE HERE! Energy: never put anything into this. (Even when playing a sorceress!) Strength is outdone by skill- and equipment-based damage boosts. The attack rating (accuracy) from Dexterity can easily be found elsewhere or is simply irrelevant. The same can be said for the mana gained from Energy. Thus, with enemies having high damage, Vitality is the only thing really worth investing in, unless you're an Energy Shield sorceress (Energy Shield redirects up to 95% of damage they take to their mana instead of their hitpoints). The 1.13c patch added in the ability to "respec" and reset attribute and skill points once per difficulty level to encourage non-Min-Maxing.

Oh, and he manages to convince one of the NPCs to give him a Plot Coupon, meaning free access to the Worldstone for him. By the time you catch up to and kill Baal, Tyrael comes down and notifies you that Baal's corruption of the Worldstone means that the only way to prevent the entire Realm from becoming an outpost of Hell is to destroy the Worldstone. Not even Tyrael himself knows what will happen afterwards. All you can do is enter the portal he opens for you.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_bd6b6284	comment	Early-Bird Boss: One of the first uniques is a shaman who not only can resurrect the Fallen Ones under his command, but can also resurrect the shamans who can resurrect the fallen ones. Upon being defeated, he, like Fire Enchanted monsters, explodes and damages anyone in melee range. Blood Raven is this. Honestly, unless you intend to grind past the quest (since it's optional) or play a fully populated game (simulated or actual) from scratch, it's unlikely you'll reach levels high enough to make those level 1 or 6 skills effective enough for Blood Raven nor acquire equipment significantly contributing to survival without twinking, as soon as the quest becomes available. By the time you are able to hire mercenaries without killing Blood Raven, you're probably high enough a level to be on comparable, if not greater footing with her anyway. Speaking of the first two dungeons, The Cave in the Cold Plains (not Blood Moor once the Den Of Evil is done) contains Coldcrow, a Super Unique archer pack that's Cold Enchanted. Archers generally cause a lot of grief because of their ranged capabilities, but this monster pack multiplies the damage of an already damage-enhanced monster through the use of minions. The Cold Enchanted property further acts as some sort of a force multiplier by allowing all in the pack to deal additional cold damage AND slow their target's movements. This combination makes for an encounter that makes Blood Raven seem like a cakewalk. To make matters worse, upon death, she flips you the finger like all Cold Enchanted monsters do, by casting a frost nova that's VERY damaging to characters who haven't been investing significantly in their vitality attribute. Woe to the one who doesn't replenish their HP right before they deal her the death blow.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_c185022a	type	"Instant Death" Radius
Diablo II (Video Game) / int_c185022a	comment	"Instant Death" Radius: Diablo II is loaded with enemies like this, the most notable examples being Diablo and Duriel. Inverted in the case of Mephisto, who has deadly ranged attacks, but will only use wimpy melee attacks at close quarters. Actually, standing up to Diablo is the best way to beat him with a weak character. His lightning hose has a gap right next to him so he'll literally shoot it past you, he won't cast bone prison when you're next to him, his cold melee and firestorm attacks can be dodged since they have big backswings and don't follow you, and his flaming circle attack always hits you anyway. Duriel's radius of death is about the same size as his room, so it doesn't really count. Duriel is also easier to survive if either a player or a minion is next to him since that prevented him from using his charge attack, which stunned its target. And Mephisto's best fought from across the chasm with a weak character - he doesn't exclusively melee when you're next to him, and his melee is a bit too much for a weak character anyway. Melee characters are widely regarded as not viable unless you have the best items in the game. For instance, there are a handful of bugged monsters that are virtually impossible to kill in melee before they annihilate you from extreme range. And one monster type used to cast a curse on you that caused you to pretty much kill yourself when you hit anything in melee. It could cast this while you were in the middle of a whirlwind or zeal hit sequence resulting in an unavoidable instant death. The somewhat popular Lord of Destruction mod "Eastern Sun" nerfed the monster version of the spell in question (Iron Maiden, a Necromancer Curse), thus making it possible to actually complete Act IV with a melee character.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_c3d60914	type	Continuing is Painful
Diablo II (Video Game) / int_c3d60914	comment	Continuing is Painful: Unlike in Diablo where anyone could steal your stuff when you die, in this game your stuff is stored in a corpse that only you can loot, though getting to it can be a headache in itself, especially if you died to something really tough or a swarm of them. Also, death comes accompanied by a gold and (in higher difficulties) experience reduction, along with the character dropping all the gold they carried. It should be noted that the game places the player's corpse in the town level of the corresponding act should they leave and return to the game. While this reduces the stress of getting past the thing(s) that killed you while fully outfitteed, it also causes the gold you carried to be lost forever, and also disables the recovery of (most of) the experience you lost that would happen after recovering the body.

A couple of other fansite personalities also show up as merc names (such as Scorch and Elle). Some of the Rogue mercenaries are named after staff on the old "official unofficial" diabloii.net site. Word of God revealed that many of the Rogue mercs are named after the wives/girlfriends of people involved in the game's development. In act 5 you can hire most of the protagonists from The 13th Warrior. One of the rare dirk-class weapons is called "The Diggler," a reference to Boogie Nights. Alas, the designers didn't think to model it as a bollock dagger. The Blessed Hammer skill channels the energy of the Hammer of Ghrab Thaar. The mini-boss The Summoner◊ bears a distinct resemblance to Rita Repulsa. The Fetish demons are modelled after the Zuni Fetish doll from Trilogy of Terror.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_c7dcdf6a	comment	Last Ditch Move: Many boss and miniboss monsters in the series have AoE elemental explosions that occur on death, which can be very nasty for Hard Core players. The random monster attributes Fire Enchanted and Cold Enchanted not only give their wielders elemental damage of the respective type but upon death they pull off this trope: Fire Enchanted monsters cast Corpse Explosion on their own corpse while Cold Enchanted monsters fire off a Frost Nova. For low-level characters, the latter is VERY nasty as cold damage slows and such monsters rarely go solo. Player characters can acquire this via certain pieces of equipment, such as the unique Rainbow Facet jewels.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_c81e2bba	type	Necromancer
Diablo II (Video Game) / int_c81e2bba	comment	Necromancer: Diablo II has its Necromancer player character. He can raise skeletons, summon golems, revive the dead, dish out poison and element-less magic damage, debuff enemies with curses, and a favorite of many players: make enemy corpses explode. (Ironically, necromancers are described as the only non-divine magic-users whose abilities aren't inherently corruptive—they're devoted not to death, but to the cycle of life and death, and they oppose Hell because the demons have been trying to break the cycle.) Legacy of Blood has Kara Nightshadow as a heroine, and is genuinely one of the good guys. She often has to explain to other characters how her use of death magic doesn't conflict with her apparent alignment. The Kingdom of Shadow and Moon of the Spider feature Zayl and his "companion" Humbart. Humbart is a spirit bound to a skull. Nothing else, just a skull. He can see, hear, and talk, but that is about it. Zayl makes it a point to keep Humbart hidden when he's around anyone else, lest they think he's evil. The Sin War trilogy briefly explains the origins of the Necromancers. There are 3 worlds in the Diablo multiverse, they are basically Heaven, Hell, and Sanctuary (Earth). Heaven is at war with Hell, and both sides think they could win by "recruiting" the mortals of Sanctuary. Necromancers want Sanctuary to stay neutral/not involved. They would like to kick ALL Angels and Demons out of Sanctuary, but, lacking the ability to do so, they wind up fighting against whichever side is winning. Usually Demons/evil has a stronger influence, so the Necromancers are on the side of the Angels/good.

In Acts 3, 4, and 5, the Elite Mooks and their leaders that you need to fight before facing the boss are MUCH harder than their infernal masters. Mainly because when facing the boss, all you really need to do is dodge. In Hell difficulty, act bosses and superuniques without minions are usually much easier than normal uniques and their minions since act bosses don't get extra boss modifiers and immunities.

Or a cloud of flies. Or a ghost, or a bug. At least the imps might have bones.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3	type	Anti-Frustration Features
Diablo II (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3	comment	Anti-Frustration Features: Diablo II introduced a number of these from its predecessor: When you die, you respawn in the nearest town with no equipped items or gold. To get your items back, you need to go back to where you were killed and recover your own corpse. This is often unfeasible, especially on higher difficulties, because the enemies that killed you are still hanging around your corpse and now you have no weapons to defeat them or armor to survive them. Thankfully, you can restart your game and your corpse will appear in town with all the items intact and only the gold gone. This was a consequence of not having this option in the first Diablo in multiplayer mode. Imagine your prized gear on the floor surrounded by monsters right at the entrance of the level waiting to chomp down on you. Running, and the ability to highlight items on the ground. Inventory items are now visible graphically rather than in text form. You can also sell items to any vendors rather than chasing specific vendors for certain type of items. Monsters have visible health bars when you pass your mouse over them. Unlike its predecessor, gold no longer takes inventory space. Weapons or armors that lose their durability are broken, but can be repaired by the blacksmith. In Diablo, a broken item was gone forever, even unique ones. In multiplayer games, friendly fire was a constant problem in the first Diablo, especially with rogues and sorcerers involved. In Diablo 2, it is disabled for all adventurers of the same party. Later patches, and the expansion, added several more: When the game was first released, minions had a nasty habit of bumping into each others and clogging small passageways. A patch addressed this by allowing them to clip you. Added in the expansion, the "repair all" button which will repair all your equipment at once, saving you the hustle of repairing your gear one by one like in Diablo. And the Resurrected Updated Re-release added even more: Previously ladder-only items and runewords were added to non-ladder and single player. Killing the Cow King no longer prevents opening more portals to the Cow Level, and activating the Halls of Pain waypoint no longer closes the portal to Pindleskin (a popular PiÃ±ata Enemy). Gold in now auto-picked when passing nearby, instead of having to click on it.

Or, if Izual is to be believed, it's actually a gambit on the part of good manipulating evil, not evil manipulating good. The original plan was to imprison the Evils in the Soulstones so that they would not return to Hell upon death. But Izual betrayed Heaven by filling in the Evils on how to corrupt the Soulstones and helped the Prime Evils mastermind their own exile into Sanctuary, setting up the events of the series proper.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_db33bc7e	comment	Ludicrous Gibs: Any monster with the 'Fire Enchanted' trait promptly cover a decent amount of the ground with themselves upon death. This gets especially silly with the boss of the Flayer Dungeon, as you have to defeat him twice and has Fire Enchanted in both forms. Necromancers can do this to nearly any dead enemy with Raise Skeleton (Mage) or Corpse Explosion, as well. Some monsters also break into gibs upon a normal sword-bashing death. It's funny to cast the resurrection spell with a necromancer on them and watch the death animation play backwards. Gibs fly into the air and connect with each other, forming a fully functional undead monster. Interestingly, if one kills a swarm of locusts and attempts to raise a skeleton from the "corpse", the same bloody explosion will occur and produce a perfect human skeleton complete with weapon. Also, if you kill an enemy skeleton, you can cast the raise-skeleton spell on it, but first it too must explode in a shower of blood and gory effluence. Aah, Corpse Explosion. Blow up a tiny Leaper or Fetish and get a blood fountain as glorious as if you'd blown up an entire Blood Maggot. A dry, fleshless Skeleton Warrior? Gibs aplenty. That one little animation, illogical as it may be, provides so much catharsis. Many of the Druid's powers explode corpses too... carrion vines and solar creepers, for example, but also summoned Dire Wolves who always appreciate a quick snack and are apparently very messy eaters.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_df582b0b	type	Continuity Snarl
Diablo II (Video Game) / int_df582b0b	comment	Continuity Snarl / Retcon: There are several inconsistencies across the series, although most players pay so little attention to the story that they won't realise it. It is said that Mephisto, along with Baal, was originally captured in the desert near Lut Gholein, and later moved to Kurast. In the Diablo III timeline it says: Mephisto is captured near the jungles of Kehjistan. It is said that the Ancients are the spirits of the Nephalem, the Ancient Ones. But the Arreat Summit (the official DII webpage) says that they were barbarians chosen by the Ancients. The writings of Abd al-Hazir say that the Tristram Cathedral was built around 912 over the vault where Diablo was imprisoned, but Diablo hadn't even been exiled to Sanctuary at that time. The Diablo 1 manual says that after their exile the Three Brothers ravaged the lands of the Far East for countless centuries, but in the game it is stated that they did so for decades. In the current timeline 50 years pass between their exile and capture. Before he came to Khanduras, Leoric was originally a northern lord, this has been changed to an eastern lord. In the Sin War trilogy of novels the robes of the order of Dialon are azure, they should be crimson. While the robes of the order of Mephis should be azure instead of black. (To match the color of their Soulstone) There are many errors in Scales of the Serpent, where the statue of Dialon has a hammer instead of tablets and where the one of Bala has tablets instead of a hammer. In Scales of the Serpent, the high priest of Dialon is named Arihan and is said to have had his title for a long time, but in Birthright all the high priests are named (Malic, Herodius and Balthazar) and Arihan isn't part of them. Abd al-Hazir mention that Zoltun Kulle was a Vizjerei mage and as evidence cites the Demonicus de Zoltun Kulle. In the Book of Cain, Cain suspects Zoltun was a Ennead mage. The Manual for the first game describes Baal as being rather brutish and inarticulate. In Throne Of Destruction he is portrayed as a Magnificent Bastard (especially in the opening cutscene). This could be Hand Waved by saying he absorbed Tal Rasha's intelligence after being inside him for so long. There's even something of a continuity snarl between Diablo II Classic and Lord of Destruction. The cinematics of Diablo II Classic say that Diablo was defeated for a while (long enough for the news to reach Marius, at least) before Baal found Marius, took his Soulstone back, and burned the asylum down. But in Lord of Destruction, Tyrael says that while the hero was fighting in hell, i.e. before Diablo was defeated, Baal had been rallying his army and launching his assault on Mount Arreat, and had already taken over all but one of the barbarian strongholds; and Baal had already recovered his Soulstone by the time he had taken over Sescheron in the opening cinematic in Lord of Destruction. So... did Baal get his Soulstone back before or after Diablo was defeated? The official timeline rectifies this snarl: Diablo was defeated in late 1264, and Baal began his assault on Mount Arreat in early 1265, retconning Tyrael's statement and undoing the retcon on Marius' story.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_e4e86215	comment	Fake Difficulty: Loads of it once you get to the aptly-named Hell Difficulty. -100 to all of your resistances, life and mana stealing is drastically reduced, minions and mercenaries are Nerfed beyond recognition, every enemy is immune to something (except act bosses, some really special superuniques, quill rats and hell bovines), massive experience loss upon death... the list goes on. Arguably not "fake" since excelling at the various skills that the game demands (item collection, character building, etc.) allows you to overcome these penalties and then some. Well-made characters can exist quite safely in almost all areas of Hell. Particularly optimized defensive builds can literally be parked and left unmonitored for extended periods of time in all but the most dangerous of areas. Pre-1.10 MSLE, and to a lesser extent, post-1.10 LEFE, LECE, or LEFECE monsters probably still count, though, since dealing any damage to them can mean insta-death.note LE, or Lightning Enchanted, causes a monster to release sparks when hurt. The other modifiers mentioned either greatly increase the number of sparks (MS or Multi-Shot), or add enormous amounts of damage to them (FE and CE, or Fire Enchanted and Cold Enchanted).

The other option was a Necromancer equipped with the spell Poison Dagger. Typically the higher the poison damage, the longer it would take to kill something. On the downside, since the Necromancer was something of a Squishy Wizard, it was entirely possible to get killed by a monster that didn't know it was dead yet. On the upside, it was also possible to run away just far enough that a poisoned monster would fall over just before it got the chance to hit you, in keeping with the Rule of Cool. A summoning Druid could also let his minions do the heavy lifting while slowly poisoning all opponents.

Instead they are in the ruins way out in the jungle.

An extra soldier would be useful, but don't expect anyone to mourn if you get yourself killed." Nihlathak is a lot nastier. "After so many have died, who are you to think you can accomplish what our warriors could not?" And, "Ending the siege [will] not earn immediate respect, outsider. Respect only comes with sacrifice — something I'm sure you know nothing of". The worst from Nihlathak? "What are you still doing here? I thought you were going off to die. Go...Be quick about it". All other Barbarians eventually respect you once they see your abilities firsthand, though. Of course, this is a Justified Trope in case of Nihlathak, because he's Evil All Along and you get to fight him later.

Then there's the items. It's entirely possible to get a "Light Belt of Light", a lightweight belt which increases the light radius, or a "Strong Field Plate of Strength", a strong - as in, resistant - armor which increases the Strength stat. If using a save editor, then it's perfectly possible to make a, say, "Fiery Axe of Fire". Or, for a more fancy version, a "Flaming Glorious Axe of Incineration". It should be noted, though, that the game precludes said combinations from happening normally. The expansion adds several new types of champion monsters: berserker, fanatic, possessed, and ghostly.

Diablo II (Video Game) / int_ffd41689	comment	Perpetual Beta: Diablo II is more notable than the first game for being in this state even after a decade of semi-annual support. Most skills are bugged and many are outright broken even after ten years of patches. A few particularly offensive examples of bugs that still plague it: The "Lying Character Screen". Due to the character screen not being updated in patches, while fundamental game mechanics have been, the character screen is notorious for displaying incorrect numbers for every gameplay value except the player's name, level, experience, and health. Melee spear skills for the Amazon class are so broken that players will call you crazy for considering them. One skill has such a slow animation that a monster can walk away before it lands. There's also a multi-strike skill that, as soon as any hit misses in the sequence or is interrupted (including by any of the Amazon's passive damage avoidance skills), all subsequent hits will miss while the animation plays out and you are beaten to death. Both skills that use a certain attack animation, which looks like a continuous blast of flame or ice, can only hit one target. Furthermore, these skills do less than 1/3rd the damage they should. This is because the missile used disappears once it hits a target, rather than continuing to exist to deal damage in spite of the ongoing animation giving the illusion it's working. There is the Gloam enemy that has two attacks: a powerful touch-based attack and a ranged lightning blast. The damage from the first attack is inexplicably added to the damage from the second attack making it one of the most infamous monsters in the game. Due to faulty coding a Viper enemy, on Hell difficulty, fires poison blasts from its mouth that leave behind invisible hitboxes that do massive physical as well as poison damage and hit up to 12.5 times per second. This can and will kill any character not specifically built to fully negate the damage within seconds if they meet the conditions to trigger the bug. The conditions? Walking, or having an ally stand near you. They're also notorious for murdering your NPC ally without a moment's notice. Veteran players will usually just Save & Quit rather than deal with them. If a boss monster gets a certain kind of randomly generated Mana Drain power, it drains 512x as much mana as intended. This makes it go from an annoying perk to an instantly debilitating one that can result in (nearly) instant death for sorceresses who used the Energy Shield skill (which allows the player to lose mana instead of health when attacked). This is due to a combination of two bugs. The first is because the engine subdivides each point of damage into 256 bits of damage for better rounding accuracy. The Mana Drain code applies this multiplication twice, so all Mana Drain uniques deal 256 times as much damage as they should. The second results from Hell difficulty applying a -100% penalty to all resistances. This includes the resistance to mana damage, despite there being nothing that could raise that resistance. Thus, all attacks that drain mana drain twice as much in Hell.
