Σ 2.1 Bugs&Feedback

I just found out that if you have found the catalysts from Andariel and the Summoner, then you put them in any stash page and be on a different stash page, talking to Deckard Cain will spawn 1 of each in your inventory. If you drop them on the ground and talk to him again, you will get 2 more duplicates and can do that for probably an unlimited amount of time. If you keep the 2 duplicate in your inventory, there won't be more that will spawn. I tryied to corrupt my save with these but it didn't work. Some people were corrupting their save in singleplayer and I though it would be the source. Also, it will spawn only the catalyst of disenchantment if you haven't found the catalyst of learning from the Summoner. From the inventory, you can put them in the bank even if the game doesn't let you have more than one of each in your save.

FEEDBACK/Suggestions:

Veil King:

► Show Spoiler

Passive Effect: +4 Blood Skeletons
Remove "Reanimate as Veil Terror".
Synergies:
Resuregence: +15% Damage per level

Note: Reducing Minions by 2 was a step into the right direction, but I think its still too much. You already have so little summons and veil king reduces it even more...
It's just nerfing summon necro which dosn't need a nerf, it needs buffs.
Veil King seemed to be balanced around the Reanimate as Veil Terror stat, since they can easily turn into a huge army provided the Veil King actually got the kill.
So Instead of Veil Terrors you would have some more Blood Skeletons instead which you can actually control compared to Veil terrors.

Blood Skeleton:

► Show Spoiler

*Now does single target damage instead of area effect attack*
(1 Skeleton on First and Second level, after that every 3 levels.)
+1 Skeleton every 3 Levels (Instead of Base levels)

Note: With only every 4 base levels, you will never get more skeletons with +skills and that made +skills not very interesting as a summoner. In vanilla d2 getting +skills was awesome!
because you knew that your maximum skeletons would increase the more +skills you have. Should be the same here. Really no fun being stuck with only 8 skeletons rest of the game.

Abyss Knight:
+1 Abyss Knight per 7 levels(Total of 4 Abyss Knights at level 21 or maxed skill)


Iron Golem:

► Show Spoiler

Replace Iron Golem with Rathma's Chosen(25 base levels)

Note: I find Iron Golem to be completely out of place for MXL, a vanilla golem that is just boring really and functions the same as in vanilla d2, the upgrade for it Metal Solace isn't very interesting either. Having Rathma's Chosen instead like it was before was much better and the extra damage Rathma's chosen gives to minions is very much needed. I think Rathma's chosen is a skill that isn't used much because I believe most use Veil King instead because he is such a badass! So that means, Rathma's Chosen is a skill that is largely unused since you can only pick on of them, Rathma or Veil king, and people choose veil king. But can't you have both? You should be!

Reward Tab:
Add a new Ultimate skill for Totems
+10% Damage for all Totems
+1 extra Totem Every 5 base levels(15base levels)


Bone Armor:

► Show Spoiler

*Needs atleast 30 points into the Summon Skill Tree*
Absorb +10 Physical Damage per level
Synergies:
Death Ward: Absorb +10 Physical Damage per Base level

Note: Bring back the Bone Armor vanilla skill, it was a great defensive skill for necromancer but especially for summoners and it looks badass too!
Could Put Bone Armor Next to Resuregence Skill in Summon Tab or have it replace Metal Solace if Rathma's Chosen would replace Iron Golem.

I thought Lion Stance in beta had it's ewd removed in favor of higher magic dmg scaling

Was the revert intended?

Unsure if anyone else has reported this issue, but there has been 2 occasions now where I spoke with a merchant, then could not walk anymore until quitting game. I had Shower of Rocka on left mouse click on both occasions. Whenever I tried moving it said “You cannot do that in town.” Changing it to Walk did not resolve the issue, I still could not walk. I was able to teleport but again could not walk after

Sol-Rune Container shows %mana instead of flat mana.

Sapphire have +%coldres in Armor at the value of Onyx, but without the maxres.

[God_of_Magic]

Totems make an annoying sound when they sit idle.
Rarely, Tree of Infusious can become unclickable.
Whirlwind seems to get no damage from hard point.
Can't mo gear when it it equipped.
Can't switch pages in stash or vendor when holding items.
Enemies that cast sacrifice, say "Help us", in a board full of them. Seems unneeded.
Farming Duriel is not possible unless done last. His entire board locks out TP with no exit if already completed. Have to exit game to escape his tomb as it has no natural exit.

Nerf the eternal ember elites. They do a lot of damage, have tons of hp, and they are extremely fast, making it very hard to kite/run away from them.

(Playing on single player if that's relevant)

Dragon Jaws :
Procs the life leech animation even with no life leech (tested on lvl 2 pala with lvl 1 dragon jaws)

Mercenaries:

On my normal playthrough I was lvled with an A1 ranger.
Her skills lvled normally (but she could use all of them)
Moreover, her skills were randomly were put back to lvl 1 and/or 0 during my playthrough and started lvling again.

I changed to an A2 merc and noticed the same thing happening at the end of my playthrough on normal (went from lvl 12 skills to lvl 1 and/or 0)

My mercs were pretty much naked (no gear with +all skills) and didnt die at any time.

Is it just a description bug?

Lemures:
Has not attack rating in the character sheet.

[afgusto]

Even freaking mobs in normal feel like mini-raid bosses for no particularly good reason.
We have every right to be frustrated and angry because we are not only unable to play the game, the mod came out with one of the worst bugs I have ever seen and the devs are still radio silent on it. While this one doesn't fall on the beta testers, but it is impossible to dodge any criticism for that group as well when the game came out with such an enormous amount of bugs.

Feedback: the inability to downgrade runes is downright archaic... trying to find a fucking EL rune past A1 Normal is like where's the real fucking waldo at a wheres waldo convention... Despised *feature*. I actually stopped playing for the night in frustration, just made it to A3 and decided it was time to make a Pax staff..... but didn't have any El runes and spent about 1hr farming A1 for them with no luck when downgrading the rune in past patches would have been instantaneous. IDK why you want to make the game frivolously harder for the sake of increasing the content length, but this boarders on a sadistic waste of time IMO. At least enable downgrading for the first 20 runes or so, jesus christ...
