I've looked around and it's related to glide, but haven't found a work-around or fix yet. Has anyone encountered this and found a solution?

Reposting this question just to see if anyone had any solution to it.

So i was reading one of the guides and was wondering why it wasn't using warp armor or snow queen, which one of those two skills is better for upper levels? Warp armor because it is a overall armor boost??

Wasn't sure why poison skill tree was being using, never remember to buff hive and vengeful power doesn't seem that wonderful...maybe i'm wrong..

I wanted to install the D2clicker but i couldn't find a clear guide. So I start it as admin and a black window shows up and it says "connected", but nothing happens.

I read that the clicker only works in window-mode?
But I can't run D2 in window-mode. There is always an error when joining a game.
Anyone got any ideas what I can do?

Thanks for your help in advance!

TL;DR: For scorpion blade, should I focus on +%psn dmg and -%enemy psn res to optimize damage, or are ther better options?

I'm currently making a throwsin who uses scorpion blade. I was initially focusing on the typical mods: +%psn dmg and -%enemy psn res. But after I read the poison damage wiki page, I saw that scorpion blade is a different "kind" of poison damage - an Active one. So am I still on the right direction focusing on +%psn dmg and -%enemy psn res?

The Fire tree is cool as it is, nice HP boost, HP regen, has Fire Dance with huge dmg buff. I personally feel the passive from Lightning tree is nearly a must. 20% avoid and ton of def, not to mention Nova Charge dmg scales with Dex. Tried Fire + Lightning tree with Melee Sorc last season, although the 2 passives don't seem synergy with each other that much but it's makes u and ur bladdy minions super tanky (even in hard uber). Lightning + Cold, Cold + Fire could possibly work too.

can anyone help me with the location of the old sewers for the elemental stones/skulls ?

The elemental stones etc now drop in Teganze, which is connected to Torajan Jungles in Act 3.

Here is some info and a map of Torajan Jungles:

Hive isn't the point of poison tree at all; it's merely a nice damage boost. The real purpose of poison tree is Vengeful Power, which gives a massive 25% to life, 20% REDUCED DAMAGE, and a 20% chance to counterattack with a crushing blow.
hive is nice in that its damage is directly related to how much dex you have, so later in the game it does thousands of dmg per second.
Personally I run poison and lightning. If you read all the comments after the melee sorc guide, it goes fairly in depth with all the options available in the different trees and the percs for each one... any combination of elements is viable, they all just have different playstyles! Feel free to ask me any more questions.
