No love for Bane Stealth? It's an essential 1pt wonder for me personally, especially with the standard gear setup without spell procs.


Yes, I haven't listed Bane in the skill list on purpose because there are some other things that help you kill enemies faster (Tremor from Sur RW, for example). Aslo, I don't like spell timer on curses/debuffs if playing a melee build.

Also I find 'summon Shadows-cast Bane-resummon Shadows' combo way too complex for newcomers. Still it's a good supporting skill indeed, especially for defensive playing when doing BRC in Fauztinville where you should be surrounded by minions for survivability reasons. Anyway, I'm gonna mention Bane in a few parts of the guide :)

You meant Parasite or Whirlpoll yes?


Yeah, I look forward for such remarks in case I made a mistake in the text, thanks! :D

Always put 1 point to talon's hold. Cool slows target is cool.


If only %slow target could be increased with soft points... :) 13% total slow with 1 point is not much a helper unfortunately. I'd rather spend these 4 hard points into Dragonfire Oil.

It's a PlugY feature: - displaying item level in its popup.

Download it here: http://plugy.free.fr/en/index.html. Keep in mind that you can use this tool only in Single Player.

Then check your PlugY.txt file in Diablo II folder. You should have such a line:

USER: active_DisplayItemLevel = 1, not 0.

Is whirlpool only available on daggers or can I get it on a scythe?
Also, when you say keep elementals summoned, is that from a charm I'm missing?

Well, look who it is. It's Derek. You can get it on rare boots as well man, as long as the rare is lvl48.
