Short Questions Thread

it's the same answer i gave you in the PM , there's no need to ask in 10 places . you can just post here.

4k lightning damage is not enough at the stage of the game where you are now . you don't deal enough damage per second , reason why you die so often . it's only ok-ish if you want to farm in easy spots (iotss/cows/k3kba) but is bad vs bosses / harder ubers ; unless you got best in slot (twinked) gear for it , it kinda sucks in mid game , so you are making it hard for yourself for no reason . the only way to increase your 4k lightning damage is with better gear (SU's) and more charms , which apparently you can't access , so why gimp yourself ?

use a spell that deals higher damage for killing bosses , such as Flamestrike or Abyss - they are better than your maxed Forked Lightning even as 1-pointers . Since you play lightning-cold , the 1-pointer Abyss should help a lot in taking more charms .

So, I was thinking about the Diablo 2 level editor, and I wonder whether that editor is available for public use and if so how hard is it to use? I tend to enjoy tinkering with map editors, though I hardly ever come up with anything that would actually be fun to play.

if many are waiting for the reset won't they trade items they know will sell high so they can look forward to next seasons trading.

there's no one to trade to or anyone who would be willing to pay more than a few sigs since everyone is quitting and a supposed reset is soon, so no.

I read somewhere that Light Radius has a 'functional cap' of 18 and that the initial value on chars is 13. What about the Bonus from Radiance? Does the initial value is taken into account and what about values above 18?

I just tried to kill the Creature of Flame in Dimensional Sanctum and got him about halfway down and then died. When I went back it wouldn't let me back through the red portal to finish him off. Is that how it works? You only get one shot? Do I have to quit and start a new game to have another go at him?

when you enter the area, it tells you that there's some kind of lockout timer after x seconds or minutes. once that time passes, you cannot re-enter the area (no tp's, no deaths). you can stay in as long as you want/need but can't re-enter after that.

Is Shadowfang for Necromancer only? I want to test it on druid with Ravage from aegipan.
