I think just one or the other is fine. For alt damage, Abyss, Frigid Sphere, or Arcane Torrent are all fine for regular mobs (and Immersion works well too if your Mana pool is empty). For tougher enemies, I'd just swap in a Hailstorm ammy. It's such a great skill.

Nah, you should be fine w/o offline tools (you have until clvl 90). You'll gain some levels in the Sewers, but your level progression will slow down once you leave town (make sure you're playing on P1). You can basically ignore all the enemies in the desert and you can teleport through all of the palace areas w/o fighting a single enemy (except maybe the last level).

And PlugY does work with M2017. But you have to use it with D2SE.

I've tried about 4 times installing Plugy with D2SE, fresh install every time. Followed guides as well as done it by myself. It works with the older median version but never with the latest one. Also downloaded an older version 1.12(i think) since you can't patch down anymore with the download you get from battlenet. I always though the second level challenge was lvl80. Guess i'm safe. Thanks for replying

Hi

I'm bower druid, using cascade, have a "fast attack speed" bow
My gear gives me 100% attack speed.

If i put in 14x additional Sha runes to get additional 210% attack speed it makes 0 difference.

I saw this post
http://www.medianxl.com/t5893-speed-mec ... -speedcalc

does it mean it makes no sense to get ias above 125%?

You're already attacking at the max frames that bow druid can attack at.

What's the cap of uninterruptable attack? Will it keep my hit recovery animation/block animation from activating?

Hello here, first time poster ... I can't find any info on how to make xis runes ... The topic that adressed this question is now 404 not found, and cant find anything on the net. I did a forum search but only found xis rune trade threads ...
Anyone has a guide on that matter for me ?
Anyway just discovered medianxl few days ago, it's super good, gratz to everyone involved in its existence.
Thanks guys !

there is working link from wiki:

http://median-xl.wikia.com/wiki/Runes

''On Destruction difficulty, in the Teganze uberlevel, you can come by Elemental Essences and Runestones.
Elemental Essence + Runestone → Elemental Rune
Elemental Runes (all 6 different) + Runestone → Kabraxis' Stone rune''

Remove any sharp objects from your home, also don't own a gun or so. Then just to make sure don't play him in mid game or buy top notch items for TG. That should be all. Early game and end game is fun. Also don't let the fact that bloodthornes is better stir you away from using lemures all the fucking time, you play this build for the fun and lemures make you have the most fun. And before you ask - no the set is not even close to top notch, except for the belt and maybe the boots just to have that proc set bonus. But the full set is shit.
