yes , BRC , it was a typo

the trial of fear is easy as the hoplites are doing all the tanking , you just need to lure the bucher on the pentagram and cast some wyrms to kill him (the summons can keep him too busy so he might not run after you and sit on the pentagram . if this happens , use blink or DA to jump a bit behind the pentagram , so that he will come and chase you and stay on the pentagram ) , the one of greed is piece of cake , the one of contrition is easy again , the trial of blood is also easy (actualy the only thing you need to worry there is not to kill one of the amazon priestesses too fast and restart the challenge), the only dangerous spot is the trial of knowledge , but if you advance in slow steps and fight small packs it is all fine - all you need to avoid is getting swarmed . get a barb merc and gear him decent , he can do all the job by himself

and when i re-disable windowed, it still gives me that error. I was playing just fine yesterday, so not so sure what happened

Add diablo to your DEP.

If you get a c0000005 error when clicking on "Multiplayer", add Diablo II to Windows DEP as an exception:
Open Explorer, right-click Computer, Advanced System Settings, Advanced tab, Settings in Performance section, Data Execution Prevention tab.
Choose Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select, Add, find Diablo II.exe and Game.exe, add them both and Apply after each.
Restart your computer after adding both to your DEP.

Doesn't work; i keep getting the error message when trying to play online; not to sure what to do

Any idea why the unsocket recipe isn't working on this? I did an Ist instead of an Ith... normally I don't rush and double check stuff, but I got complacent here since unsocket recipe made me feel "safe"

xis rune cant be unsocketed

I'm playing Classic melee holy Paladin on TSW, currently lv 120 now and have collected some easy charms, Below are my stats and I keep dying very quickly everytime facing this Boss (~ 3 4 hit K.Oed by Trinity beam). Is there something wrong with my set up or how/tips to beat this one. I saw some player in cummunity is invincible vs the boss with pretty same set up too.

Thanks for an awesome mod !

Also, make sure you're not getting instagibbed by his multi-directional bone spear thing.

Also, also, his Hive can do decent damage, even with 77% Poison res, so try to avoid that, too.

When i press Pounce it does the attack but my charater doesnt move and the "nova" seems to not hit a damn thing.

I was afraid of that... thanks man

And thanks Sprow!

What mercenary would you recommend for a Thornwarden? I'm thinking A2 Fighter Mage? Thoughts?

Thanks in advance!
