25% hatred, 50% terror, 75% destruction minion resists will cap.

Righto, thanks. So summons don't get -resists in higher difficulties then


They do, but they have 75% innate resists, so they start Terror with +25% and Destruction with -25%.

Hi guys, I noticed that in Median 2017 rare reroll with oil/dragon eggs was removed. Some builds relied heavily on having specific oskills. How is this addressed? I used to buy hundreds of oils to reroll until I get the must-have oskill for a build. What do I do now in this situation?

Hi, I am a relatively new player, and I cannot seem to find any information on the reanimates MECHANICALLY.
I was wondering if there is information on what determines the strength of reanimates.

Example/essence: you can use orb of of skeleton reanimation at first difficulty and last difficulty.
Question: If you can use the same reanimate at low and high level, does that mean that they would be op at low level and useless at high level? Or is there some sort of scale mechanic? Zone level? Difficulty? Players in the game?
Additionally, do reanimates benefit from minion damage, life and resistances?
Thirdly, are elite reanimates as strong as regular elite monsters, and if so, what level?

reanimates get the hp and monster specific dmg for the zone/difficulty the spawned in

reanimates and minions benefit from minion bonuses on gear and charms

the question to elite reanimates is the same, like in line above i wrote
and the level of reanimates will be the from the zone, theres also an uber skill on paladin, the skill lvl will increase the stats the ll get

Can anyone please tell me is there a fix for this issue :?:

I'm having problems with item stats display. If i remove it from my char, it shows all the stats correctly:

but when I put it back ( it receives all additional bonuses from the set) it looks like this:

Font is shrunken for some items and the game displays it correctly:

Sorry what's SA?

Lightning arena on amulet comes to mind. Rely on it a lot on bowazon and throw barb. I don't play online so trading is not an option I think.

Trading is an option. We have a sub-forum for SP trades if I remember correctly.

The reanimate takes the stats of the same monster in the game. Since monsters become stronger with each difficulty so do the reanimates. On Terror and Destruction reanimates also scale with the level of the area but this is a moot point since in Destruction all areas have the same level. Elites are in general stronger than regular monsters.

They do not benefit from minion life, damage & resistance stats on gear. The only way to boost them is to buff them yourself or empower them with some aura, Paladins get supercharged reanimates via their Resurrect skill which also scale with points in it.
