But it doesn’t have the new Uber set up, Trojan jungles, caldeum, etc.. where can I find a patch for the latest features. I would like the patch to run with D2SE, so not with the launcher. I downloaded the patch from the 1.13 change log post.

If you're playing v1.3 it is not possible that it hasn't the new Ubers, probably you installed the file wrongly and/or you didn't replaced the files in the correct D2SE folder too. Anyway here is a link without the Launcher: ModDB download

Treewarden form has -50% enemy slow modification. Various items have it too, lessay ring has -10% enemy slow - does it mean that it overrides treewarden form ? Or adds to it ? According to DSTATS program, this 50 % modifier overrides everything ? Has somebody tried higher than 50 % slow items at treewarden ?

Ok. I have Champions of the Sun Oskill shield

Amazon Shields
'ThulNefGul'
Runeword Level: 65
15% Attack Speed
+(15 to 25) to Champions of the Sun
+(6 to 8)% to Summoned Minion Damage
+(115 to 143)% Enhanced Defense
-25 to Energy
Cold Resist +25%
Physical Resist 10%
-5% to All Vendor Prices

with my on switch equipment.

I press ''W'' and they all die. Except 1 of them ( Which gives me that sweeet aura for free ) WHY ? :?:

Is this cheese ? Or intentional ? Either way, I guess I'm keeping this cheesy tactic for me

( approx. 20 percent DR is a good deal )

It‘s a bug and this is how it works: depending on how many + to all skills yo have, the amount of summons left is determined. For example if you have + 10 to all skills and the skills gives you on skill level 10 two summons, all die except 2. if you however have +11 to all skills and you get 3 summon on skill level 11, all summons except 3 die.

Only +all skills affect that bug. + to class specific skills like +3 to Paladin skills don‘t affect it if I remember correctly.

I don‘t think it‘s intentional, but it definitely helps keeping the screen clear lol.

Ty for your response.

My characters get to the point where they can do TA and the first jungle area with the 12 of the easiest relics but the jump into Toraja has been rocky on every character I have besides my Totemancer or my Harbinger Druid. What's the way to do well here if every spell from the shaman things ignores your resistance?

First of all, you're talking about Teganze, Toraja is area inside Teganze. To survive in teganze you need some kind of meatshields that will take damage for you like Edyrems or any summons you can get, the tankier they are, the better. Also, life leech doesn't work there, only life/mana on melee attack, on striking and on kill, so that is why harbringer druid can survive Teganze without much problems. Same goes for Totemancer, he has tons of summons that are constantly on top of him, so they tank damage for him. Proceed slowly, always have summons in front of you, so they can take first barrage of missles. A lot of armor, block chance and avoid help a lot too. Don't stay in one place for too long

That would explain a lot. Thanks for the advice! I went in with lots of tanky Spirit Barb summons this time and I'm slooowly clearing it. A follow-up question though. When I tried this last season I ended up with something like 11 essences and 2 Runestones. Is that ratio normal seeing that essences are useless on their own?

Omg you were right... They die with anything that can affect anything in any way... Sometimes buffs

How important is to have capped DR% with assassin using tiefiling form which gives 0 defence? As a melee character based on twin fang strike.
