Hi. Playing Median XL for the first time. Following a guide that says to reroll rare amulets and rings to get certain stats but I looked through the cube recipes and don't see any way of doing that.

Secondly, I was cruising along in Act 1 destruction until I got to jail 1 where I got mobbed by 6-8 clawstorm upon opening the first door. Tried remaking the game a few times but the result was the same. Is this a bug or just a sign saying " whoa buddy, I think you need a gear upgrade before I let you through"?

Thanks

Rolling rares is no longer possible. Clawstorm Terror can drop an eye which is 1/5 of a recipe for upgrading the class charm. They are supposed to be harder. If you're in sp, maybe switch to hatred and back to get fresh map.

EDIT: problem seems to be d2se and plugy. When I launch through d2se with plugy, no caldeum or torajan jungles to be found. But when launched through the shortcut everything seems fine. So any suggestions?

Am I missing something or is this really a bug? No Torajan Jungles? Torajan Jungles is nowhere to be found in Kurast Docks.

have you found the answer? If not, the thing i did that fixed this is putting everything in the 1.1.3 patch into the Median XL folder (where you install Diablo 2)

"after kill" is triggered by the kill made with weapon damage or poison damage , "when slain" is triggered no matter what type of damage does the kill - including (any) elemental spells

Hey, I'm new to the game and just got a sorc to level 120. Im using the full Elemental child set but it seems like every other character is able to clear content much easier than I am. What is the best current sorc build for clearing end game content and farming?

Also, is crafting better than SU or sets for a sorc?

good crafts can be better than good SUs or sets, godly crafts are endgame gear in most of the cases.

3 questions really.

1) Is there a way to see point by point , hard and soft , of skill scaling? The tool for me does not give any details.

2) Does +[Class] skills and +All skills affect hireling abilities?

3) Does +All skills and +[Specific] skill improve prox?

Thanks for your help!
