I found an ethereal item, but is is magic (blue). Is there any way to make a runeword on it (i.e. convert the item from magic to normal) without losing the ethereal property?

What changed from initial sigma version on "Banisher of light" bonus quest (the same with 5 gems)?
Earlier my sorc with 16K life ice elementals could tank all types of elementals without any problems.
Now necro, 90K+ life jinns, totems with 62% avoid, etc - everything dies from one hit. Does not matter which seal i open - they clean up my army in single hit (necro alone could stand more, but they kill much faster than i can summon).
Elementals pierce minion resist or what?

I wanted to try a hammertime build, but the oskill is only available on a trash TU 2h hammer. Why make it an oskill if it's never going to be playable?
The only way I can conceive of this being a usable skill is with all-in on assassin ways, or barb stance synergy to (release the) kraken stance oskill. Forget it, yet another unviable skill... why bother including this?
Why have a thousand skills to choose from when only 20 are good? I'm exaggerating, but you get the point.

I wanted to try a limpet laser build with

Banner of Bitter Winds

Banner of Bitter Winds
Bladed Shield (Sacred)
Defense: (1672 - 2035) to (1996 - 2430)
Chance to Block: 4%
(Assassin Only)
Required Level: 100
Required Dexterity: 550
Item Level: 105
Limpet Laser: +1 Projectile
+1% Cold Spell Damage For Each Skill Level of Your Ways Passives
+(3 to 4) to Assassin Skill Levels
-(10 to 20)% to Enemy Cold Resistance
+(15 to 25)% to Summoned Minion Resistances
+(130 to 180)% Enhanced Defense
Maximum Cold Resist +(1 to 2)%
Physical Resist 5%
Cannot Be Frozen
Socketed (6)

, but it seems like unless you respec at 125-130+ with all charms up until then, you're putting all your stats into str and dex for gear and have no energy for spell damage. I'm not even sure that the Banner (+1 projectile) bonus even works...
Not to mention how some areas have no terrain for them to stick to.
So in order for Limpet Laser to be a usable, I need to level an 'actual' build to a high-ish level, then make it shit so I can play with a meme skill?

Fuck me...

Can someone tell me how the damage bonus from Famine actually works?
In this picture i equipped a shitty weapon and no other gear/charms and maxed out my strenght.
Why did it not add 20% of my strength (1080*20%=216) to my attack damage?
d2stats is giving me the same result

Edit:
Nevermind, figured it out myself, its percentage based (216% instead of flat 216)

So you can test them out and come ranting? You propably play SP so you can respec at will. Every time I see your post it's whining about "the old days", if you don't like the way marco/whist and co made Sigma stop playing and gtfo.

Why is dark pasta 2.5 times more expensive that regural? And is it racial or star wars issue when I complain about that?

What do I need to max vs Buyard Cholik to be 100% safe? Fire and %phys res?
