Thanks, m8! I don’t usually hoard too much and try to keep my trade list updated during the active part of the season. You can search the trade site, click on anyone’s account, then replace with “Spanxxx” in the URL, then see active trades. Also, when I time stamp builds I believe it shows what’s in stash tab 1. Check descript/pinned comment on the build vids.
@@SpanxxxyDidn’t they change the fact that you can mirror uniques? Is it the jewels now that give you the black armour? I’m looking to make a black armour Amazon next ladder.
I checked out the trade site last night for fun and that place is completely empty the trade site says 988 people in-game but theres only 3 public games total
Huge favor spanxxxy. Did you play the first crafting league and could you make a video on how reset will go? Started in season 8 and can't find a good video explaining the league
Heyo! I actually haven't done a crafters league yet..might do this one. I assume your current characters will get rolled to non-lad and the ladder characters will have the crafter league guidelines. My only note is in S6 they made changes to maps, so old maps left on characters bricked the characters and were unable to play them again. In S7 they made changes to open wounds, so anything with OW left on characters bricked the characters. I would pay close attention to announcements on discord for any potential changes to items they ask you to get rid of if you want to keep your non-ladder character.
great video. amazing gear and build. Makes me wanna reinstall pd2. I played pod before pd2 took over and this mod was hella fun too. I remember slamming a 10 fcr soj and get 50+ hrs for it. I almost got an heart attack when that happened haha. I might just install pd2 for next season but theres so much i need to learn. You should make a video about pd2 and all the new stuff that you can do in it and the new key items!
Ty, ty. The list would be massive even if I stuck to just S9 change, so to list everything that has changed would be a long vid. I usually direct people to the wiki to review the list of patch notes over the seasons. wiki.projectdiablo2.com/wiki/Patch_Notes
Thanks, m8! 547HRs if I include the almanac, navigator, and skeleton key. Would've been another 50HRs if I had to purchase the arach. S8 has been a pretty wild season for sure.
Always baffled at your detication to play so late into the season. I actually loose intrest after 4-6 weeks in, depending on the build. Nice work! Gear is really nice.
Thanks, m8! I definitely get the stagnation for sure, especially when certain goals are achieved. As soon as I finished this char I kind of stopped playing finally..ha.
I don't worry about those monsters since I have 8 LAEK, plus I'm able to telekenesis pots and wells efficiently, but I do avoid maps if they have life drain. Sometimes I avoid a map if it converts a ton of damage to poison, but usually the other map attributes are good enough to stick with it. Pretty much only the spiders on ancestrial have poison extreme poison damage.
You don't quite understand what I mean. There are birds, which shoots red stars and also cast some curse. Usually this curse is amplify or decrease your def, but they have another curse called "blood mana". While it works, you lose hp when you cast something. The amount of damage depends of manacost of your spell and frequency of use, in case of nova - its a lot. At least thats how it was in lod, but i dont check it here. I know that the trigger of exactly this curse is your mana pool more then hp pool.
Late season prices are always inflated, so even though stuff cost more, I was able to sell items for more as well. For example, 50wss is eventually worth 1.5/sur and many rune/gem stacks go for .25/gul. I also flipped some major items, so having some wealth to buy expensive items to then sell for even more was a big factor.
I WFH 3-5 days a week, so I'm almost always available to pop into a game to make a trade with international people, which I think is a big part of acquiring your ideal items..being able to trade with people in all different timezones. My dedicated time to actually MF/map is usually from 10:30PM-1AM when my wife/kids are asleep. Sometimes I'll have a lazy weekend day as well if my kids don't have a sport going on.
Since the stormspire was such a low roll, plus making items eth doesn't add that much physical damage. Non-eth elite weapons have 25% base damage buff and making items eth only adds 25% base damage instead of 50%.
Yeah, I made a PSA on reddit a while ago telling people about the bounty belts. It's such a good use of the El rune. I pick up every rune and I think I ended up with 200-250 el runes and 100-150 ios and lums this season iirc.
Would be brutal without infinity. >< ..haven't decided on what I want to run yet if I play the crafters league, but sounds fun since I haven't done it before.
There's an announcement on the discord of the tentative timeline. It's getting pushed out further than usual, plus there will be a rare/craft league. I'm just happy there's going to be another season since I think they're in a better place financially regarding server costs.
While I do MF a lot and slowly gain ists/guls through selling mats once the stacks become for valuable, I also trade a lot. You definitely need wealth to gain wealth when it comes to flipping high-priced items. For example, I bought a 2Os tyraels for 30HR and sold it for 60HR a day or two later.
The inflated value was primarily from it being mirrored for sure, especially it being black since it could be paired with another black jewel to make an item red. In S7 when I ran my teeth necro a 7FHR/3maek/3laek was usually around 30-40HRs and just basic 3/3s were closer to 10-15HRs. Still, definitely pay attention to the "after each kill" attributes in general since they' sought after.
@@Spanxxxy thanks! Yeah I didn’t know they had so much value. To me anything valued at over .25-.50 HR plus is valuable. I’ve only made one infinity ever (and that was one of the past PD2 seasons) and I played LoD when it first came out off and on since then. I will rewatch your how to gain wealth video. Apparently I need a refresher!
I made a video on how to gain wealth that you can check out to get a general idea. Some comes from lucky finds/corrupts, but a good chunk comes from trading. It's true that you have to have money to make money. For example, I bought a 2Os tyraels for 30HR, then traded it for 60HR the next day. To be able to gain 30HRs from MFing/corrupting would normally take a lot more time. Steady accumulation of WSS,, as well as crafting and map rerolling materials, especially later in the season is a nice consistent increase in HRs. Selling in bulk increases profit as well. Also, even though the mirror still cost 100HRs, it was trading for 350-400HRs at the time, so just having 100HRs allowed me to gain 250-300HR value.
I have been playing d2 for 20 years, with tons of time in pod and pd2… sometimes I think I know what I’m doing until I hear that people are trading hundreds of high runes worth of gear like it’s no big deal.
The prices are definitely inflated due to this be super late season. Early season 50WSS were going for less than vex, even as low as .35, but 50WSS when I was making this sorc were going for 1.5-2.0. Similarly, most stacks of runes/gems were going for mal, but were all able to get gul. Most of the wealth came from trading though.
Hahaha..I considered it, but my stormspire is such a low roll. >< There was another vial listed for 50, which I probably would've bought if the stormspire were higher.
It’s pretty insane, that’s for sure. Curious what it would’ve gone for with a more active player base. Also curious what it’s worth now that it’s eth with the 55 roll..ha.
I want gloating. Shameless filthy gloating, that's what I'm here for. Don't have the time nor patience to get these sorts of items... I have a pala firebear (native aura) you can have for content if you like? I'm done for the season as well... Pretty fun one, not maxed, but it does T3 fortified maps.
In season 8 the mirror could only be used on magic and rares, including jewels, which allowed people to colorize their items black, white, red, and gold. In season 9 the mirror could only be used on magic, rare, and craft items, not including jewels. Prior to season 6 the mirror could be used on uniques. The mirrors I bought in season 8 started at 45, 65+250WSS, then as mentioned in the video I bought a mirror for 100, then sold the mirror for the jewel in my sorc's armor+100, so I essentially got it for free. You are correct about S9 prices though. I bought my mirrors for 25, 30, and 25. Let me know if you'd like to assert anything else I can help with.
It gets harder to gauge prices as the season goes on and there's less reference items on the site to compare. Respect for setting a price instead of "offer". Definitely check the market for comparable items when possible. The belt went to a good home!

Will do, m8. Thanks for watching!
Always good to see you around Spanx, I quit for the season to spend some time w the family before the crafter league 😂! Cya in a few weeks!

Do you have any problems with stygian furies or succubus or whatever their name is, who should cast blood mana?
Or you just avoid these maps?
I don't worry about those monsters since I have 8 LAEK, plus I'm able to telekenesis pots and wells efficiently, but I do avoid maps if they have life drain. Sometimes I avoid a map if it converts a ton of damage to poison, but usually the other map attributes are good enough to stick with it.

How the hell do you casually farm 50 hrs.
