Many patches ago sins managed to farm without the new BRC skill. You can survive without it and will probably be faster by not wasting time going melee. Bloodpath is not for every built.

Thank you.
So.. Should I drop my second damage dealing skill (in my case fb sentry) and WotG and go for Phase bomb? I feel like I will have a lot of spare points then.

Can't connect to server after update my mXL to last ver. , say someone - why?)
how i can fix it.

Phase bomb and psionic storm are great to deal with any light immunes. But it depends on where you want to farm. In dunc for example I would definitely go for phase bomb.

When I click on Reveal Map at Meshif in act 3, for example, is it normal for the game to freeze for a few seconds while it activates the reveal? Just want to make sure that's normal and not something on my end that lags/freezes the game.

Completely normal. The map is huge and it takes a fair bit of time. Sometimes I wait for more than 10 seconds.

Just doing cows for the first time in the default difficulty. Is there a cow king I need to worry about? I certainly don't want to kill him by mistake and then I can't make the cow portals anymore.

No worries. You can still have access to Cow level even when you kill the cow king.

You should be rather concerned about how easily you'll get killed by him. The Cow King BPR is always in the same spot in the middle of those fences made of stone and wood. Just stay 2 screens away from that and it's fine.

@Suffer you might want to check out Discord and ask in the tech support channel. Getting an answer is faster that way. To get to the Median discord channel click in the menu at the top of this page on community, then on discord chat. However, if you get an error message: I had the same issue. Don't start the game through the launcher in this case. Start the game though Diablo 2 exe. (admin mode, comptability Windows XP SP3) that should work.
