It's not possible anymore unless you stand inside town and your friend stands outside town. You can cast it that way, but otherwise, it won't work on other players. Only your own minions.

Looking for advice with Soul of Envy.
I have a 120 barb, 120 sin, and 121 dudu. I can respec them or make another char if something else would be better.

My barb mowed over the first 3 sections I encountered pretty easily, but envy has been a real bitch.

What do you guys do to tackle Soul of Envy easiest? 90% of the time I can't see him because it's so dark especially when on the assassin, and if I do see him he teleports away. The summons too just oneshot me on both sin and barb if i stay close too long. I've read Korcola's guide and other limited discussion on this boss. I dont think I can do this on my yaggai barb, maybe the sin but I feel like you guys might know something better. Had to come here and ask after 5 hours of getting rekt by him lol.

Try using RIP modifier recipe on a ring to avoid Envy using the Death Shards corpse explosion on you. I think Poison is the best bet for him. I think he's physical/fire immune? (can't remember tbh), but poison and phys/magic will roll through the Slave of Envy or wahtever they're called. He teleports around often and has very high regen, so you either need to out-DPS his regen or keep Open Wounds applied. He doesn't have too mch HP, but the regen can be annoying. Just try to chase him as best as possible.

He does kind of hover, so if he dies over one of those blood pools, no items will drop, as they're not walkable map areas.

Welp after all these hours of frustration I ornate crafted a ghetto lightning set for my sin filled with orts, maxed phase bomb for slow, and one shotted him with electrofield sentry lol.

He seems to not teleport, or too slow to teleport when you got big slow on him. Just thought i'd share after 2 nights of failing.

i used to use qoomap but i switched to 2017 from xl xvi and now qoomap doesn't work i just want something that will filter the trash drops without me being a coding genius or even vaguely competent something i can set to show only rares and setsetc or define certain parameters dont care about map revealing or anything just would like to make the "trash "invisible and maybe even define what to consider trash

D2Stats in tool section can do this (or here: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3702)

Hi, I'm a little confused.

Icharion's Dissuader

says Shadows spawn Corpses. I don't really know what this ability means. Does this only effect the "female shadows" from the Summon Sirens oskill? The SU-Page says there is an oskill called "Summon Shadows", I just could not find it, neither in the oskill nor in the affix list

Skeletal flayers were previously shadows. They received a different animation, name and their aura was changed a little bit.

They must've missed changing that.
