Can I use Players X command while playing on TSW?

No. Players X is a command that simulates the multiplayer number of players and can't be used in multiplayer/online.

uhc appocalypse or mind flay? ^^

You can't one shot such bosses anymore, you could in the past. You want a strong attack/spell you can control easily that does not destroy her totems (which heal her 5%). Hailstorm is pretty nice for that, Mindflay works too.

Does /players X also change the HP of uber bosses like Laz? Azmodan? Astrogha?

[Johnny Impak]

Pretty sure it affects every enemy in the game. As for Mindflay, getting started with a UHC is pretty hard now. I feel underpowered with the best gear I can possibly get. (Which is T6 in my case and some honorifics) Damage is a mere 2-2.5k. With charms and heavy energy investment coupled with -100+ lightning resistance it may be better, but for now, Infernal machine took me 1 hour to do. Also, the beam count does not increase every 9 level as skill description says.

Hello I'm trying to get 2 instances running in order to mule, but I can't seem to. I just downloaded/installed the launcher, which is supposed to be able to run 2 clients at once for that purpose, but it doesn't work for me (I get the usual error that 'only one instance can run at once'). I think I might have installed or used the launcher wrong though (I simply pointed the installation folder to my existing Median XL directory that I installed manually, rather than doing it from scratch with a clean, un-Median'd version of d2).

Any ideas?

edit: I did a full reinstall from scratch and got it working.

you only need 150 flat DR, 90% Max resist ( don't need to overstack. just get max res), and a source of absorb. thats all.

86 Max res, CFM absorb and 150 flat dmg reduction = he heals you with his beam. How you can't facetank him with event horizon, CFM and 90 res is beyond me.

Roll some damage reduced on armor and you should be good to go.

yes beyond me aswell, that should not be happen imo, why is 90 flat not enough ? not asking you btw....

its a balanced question for this mod ... who comes to the idea that you will need flat pyhs abs to fight an caster boss ? thats the question

Part of his beam is physical damage. When you negate the physical damage, it allows you to absorb (heal) the elemental beam damage.
