Poison damage page says:
"Note: This type of poison damage has different mechanics depending on the type of attack. What happens is that when this poison damage is applied with missiles, it is not affected by +spell/poison damage. But when used in melee, it is affected by +spell/poison damage. Also it's important to understand that the nova on retaliate (or any other nova attack) is considered a missile, aswell as the rocks on shower of rocks, and the spikes on crucify."

New Time Wave changes read:
"TIME WAVE: projectile - every nearby enemy is hit with a timed strike, causing delayed damage
Now also spawns on 2 Handed Barbarian Axes and Barbarian Helms
Fuse delay reduced from 3 seconds to 1.6 seconds
Weapon damage increased from 40% to 150%"

Question:
Does the "projectile" word in the time wave description mean that it is a "missile" and thus +spell/poison damage will not apply, or is time wave a melee hit?

If I'm interpreting the description right, it's just Timed Strike applied to enemies in AoE. Timed Strike is a delayed WDM attack.

Time wave is just multiple spam of time strikes. Time strike itself is spawned projectile/missile. It won't count as melee attack (only single initial hit to single monster, that applying missiles spawning around)

Anyone know at what point a character that you haven't played in a while (non-ladder) gets purged from the system? Seems like I remember seeing it happens around 6 months, but couldn't find anything in the documents about it.

Is there a way to figure out the chances of getting a wishmaster vs the other unique jewels when rolling jewels with this recipe? I've rolled about 50 times now and not gotten a wishmaster yet so I'm guessing it's drop chances are lower than the others?

Any non-sacred item + Oil of Enhancement + Arcane Crystal x2 → reroll item as unique

Havent played in a long ass time, and back then I played SP with Plugy

So, one question - do people have storage issues playing online or SP and does Pkugy still work?

PlugY and Median is not compatible.

Online: For me the storage issue is not a big thing, because you can create new chars as mules.
I concentrate on one character for farming.
I can´t judge for SP in Median, but I think it´s quite harder without PlugY

I mean you can still mule by using TCP/IP on single player

THanks!

SO there is not really an advantage anymore to SP i guess. Are the servers very laggy?

Why still using TCP/IP if there's shared stash in MXL Offline tools? It's faster than open 2 games, create game, join, and so on... and it won't reroll your map.

I will play Median XL Sigma for the very first time. Y played last version, and I used to farm my items using the Griswold Treasure. Now that item gone, so I don't know how to farm the items that I saw the guides I'm reading. How do I do it? Thanks! I'm not planing to play multiplayer, so xd
