Short Questions Thread

Most things I've read say that DDraw is the way you should actually go, but don't quote me on that

Sorry if I'm just crying due to rng issues but are the Kekeke & Arkenstone jewels realm only? I've gotten over 25 cornerstones now but never gotten these jewels....

There's a full walkthrough guide for melee necro's depending on what kind you want to play. dagger/shield, scythe, procmancer, etc. @Stealthmaster wrote it.

it would be nice if you can post a screenshot of the error so pleople can identify the exact source of the error and provide an exact answer to fix your problem . at this point we can only make presumptions .

thanks, i'll check them later when i get home. i guess it doesn't matter if i had those legacy items on either stash or if my sin is already wearing then. i'll post a screenshot if i'm not busy tomorrow.

I don't have much experience on this since I usually self-wipe when new big patch comes up.

is that the stash on my character or the storage chest? i'll try that later. thanks

i removed all equipped legacy SUs and most of the legacy charms, moved the items from the 1st page of the sin's stash & storage chest. i haven't gotten an error*****4a6 since. thing is i have to farm those charms again & SUs again.

ChuckNoRis here are screenshots of those errors.

I believe thats the too many items error. You are holding too many items in your inventory+mercenary+cube+current stash page. Try removing items from them to a free stash page. You shouldn't need to throw things away if your able to get into the game in the first place.

A question about regenerating health/poison attack monsters; e.g. Grubbers, Pirates of the 7 Seas etc. I'm a Barbarian ao I have to use close range. Sometimes, I can defeat them without retaliating with poison; but other times can retaliate and they poison me. Then I have to back off for a health potion; when I go back, their health is full again. So:
-how can I predict when will they be able to attack and when not?
-what would be some ways of dealing with them as a melee char?

Stun with Thunder Slam and kill with Iceburst or Stormblast

If i open new thread with simple question you tell me to use short question thread, when i ask here nobody answers. So i will try again, why cant i open mdxl with D2SE on winows 10?

D2se needs admin privilleges & win xp sp3 compatibility. Also if your base game is on version 1.14 it will not work.
