Short Questions Thread

i've done about 4 - 5 k3k runs and all I got is only one sacred unique orb..for sorceress. where should I farm sacred uniques again?

tran athulua or duncraig

Tran athulua for those SUs until you are strong enough for duncraig and fauztinville. I seem to get the most SU drops with ~350-400% magic find. Up around 500-600 set items tend to drop a lot more than SUs. Useful if you need stat signets

On the docs I am aware of some rare phrases that are actually different on runewords than on uniques. I can't seem to figure out the phrase for "Maximum Skill Level" is on uniques, if there is any.

Yeah some phrases are different in the docs to make them shorter.

You can find it on, for example, the Legacy of Blood charm.

There isnt any on uniques except one realm only amulet, like someone said. If it was on uniques it would be called the same.

I keep getting an unhandled exception error every time I approach the Tran Althula entrance on TSW.....about 10 times in a row now...any help would be appreciated

^ try reinstall your diablo 2
if you use D2SE then copy files from D2SE/CORES/1.13C to your main diablo 2 folder

Where is this realm only amulet on the docs? Unless, if I remember correctly, someone said there were secret uniques?

realm only items are not in the docs

it's called Khanduran Royal Pendant and it also gives resurrect charges :shock:

According to the docs, I am able to deal this "max" dps. That of which is 83886 dmg each frame for each element. Is this true? How difficult is it to achieve that cap? Additionally, somewhere on the forums I have seen that spells can hit multiple times in a single frame if that spell has multiple projectiles and has 0 ND. Is the dmg still capped at 83886 or is it 83886 for each instance within that frame? Lastly, from a post I made which had been unanswered; are there any skills that are projectile-less, but are more of an area of an effect? If there are, is the frequency at which they hit an enemy only once per frame?

It's possible to hit the cap, but it takes some relatively powerful gear to do so (and the right build). As far as I know, the damage is capped at 83k per instance of damage dealt/calculation, the frames themselves don't really matter. Also as far as I know, just about everything is projectiles even if it doesn't appear to be. Even stuff like Laserblade on a Naginata and Area of Effect Attack and such are just invisible projectiles fired at everything within a range. Stuff like Fortress is just complicated chains of screwy projectiles, some with visible graphics
