D2R Unique Items - Gore Rider (War Boots)

[@kevinnitta3576]

I always wanted to know about this legendary item. Thank you GM!

[@njdutoit]

It's best to combine these boots with items like Guillaume's Face and Highlord's Wrath for an almost guaranteed chance of Deadly Strike.

[@Emet30]

Thanks for all the tips! How about the Hand of Blessed Light? Is this just a FoH weapon? Upgradable?

[@GGMentor]

Hand of The Blessed Light is more for a Fist of the Heaven's Paladin yes, the nice boost to both holy bolt and Fist of the heavens makes it a very good choice for FOH. It can also be upgraded yes to the Caudecus elite version of the war scepter/divine scepter giving it a bit more damage.

[@Chasodey]

Congrats with some visual improvements with this pretty intro/outro!

[@RowanneIris]

I'm fairly new to your channel. Now that I see your little chinchilla buddy, your channel picture seems very fitting. Thanks for doing these videos. I'm holding off on playing more Resurrected until the new patch hits and am just soaking up all the info on your videos. Also, the new intro and outro are great! =)

[@GGMentor]

Haha yes that that is Mr Nimoy. Also soaking up information is great for diablo II it will help you a lot. Glad you like the new intro and outro too =}

[@palatinus7896]

hey ginger can i suggest you 1 new series "explaining" all the skills... with wich you will become THE WIKI of d2r

[@GGMentor]

Ironically, I already considered it. It may be something coming after the unique series is over.

[@godlymajins]

I could honestly use more info on which affixes works with which skills.

[@Dead-xk1lk]

@@godlymajins this sounds interesting 🤔 I would watch 👁👁

[@boyuncle3704]

And now look how things have turned out. I’m genuinely happy about this. Top work ginger

[@BIG_SLEEZ]

I used to play d2 bacc when I was like 7-8 nd I had no idea wtf I was doing but I could watch my sister play for daysss, I would wake up and watch her play 6-8 hrs like it was nothing, im 20 now and my sister passed away in 2020. You remind me a lot of her, not saying you’re feminine, but your wit and sense of humor is the same, so I usually let your videos play in the bacccround while I’m getting shit on by lightning immunes lol. I have a lvl 78 Amazon named after my sisters og character but my plan is to make a hc Amazon named after my sister and take her to hell. I wish she coulda seen d2r but that’s life right. Anyways the content you push out man is god tier and I appreciate the work you do. P.S that Skyrim shit is dope and It’s coo watching you play other games that aren’t Diablo im definite gonna try to catch one of your streams on Sunday. When your plate isn’t as full would you consider doing a witcher 3 let’s play? P.S.P.S GINGER is an anagram for another word hahaha but in all seriousness I really appreciate the content bro.

[@GGMentor]

Sorry to hear about your sister, she probably would have loved d2r. But hey think about it this way, when you play diablo a game she loves you are a little closer to her then before. I know because I poured so much of myself into this game when I was younger. Still do even, hah. I can tell you that when I heard d2r was getting a remaster I flipped my wig..

[@GGMentor]

Btw you should take your sister's save files from diablo 2 and import them into diablo 2 resurrected. I think that would be an awesome tribute to her memory

[@BIG_SLEEZ]

@@GGMentor thank you for your words, while playing I like to think that she’s watching me play now you know? I would love to import her files over to d2r but I wouldn’t know where to start plus she moved to Montana a while bacc and took all her things with her :’( im also a console newb hahaha saving up so I can get a pc nd play d2r how it’s meant to be played.

[@GGMentor]

@@BIG_SLEEZ hey I play on Nintendo switch too it's great Play diablo in bed before I go to sleep

[@kloroform1681]

Uh oh! Got the new intro/outro goin' on! 😄 I see you GGM! 🥳 By the way, you aren't fooling anyone, Sir. We all know that is no chinchilla...it's an alien parasite. The jig is up! 😆

[@GGMentor]

Well I have to gestate the alien parasite to maturity so he can conquer the world.

[@thomasjpogue]

Nice new intro. Btw your running our of uniques in your holy grail vid series haha

[@GGMentor]

Lol I was thinking of when I finish offering a holy grail challenge to watch every video on every item 🤣

[@chrono2959]

I was trying to think of a way to describe the feeling I got when I listen to your new intro song I think the best way I could describe it would be a medieval times Mister Rogers... I like it

[@chrono2959]

Won't you be... my gamer

[@GGMentor]

Well Daniel was on the mister Rogers show. Daniel tiger

[@ejnt00217]

This really is an incredibly useful series of YT videos. Thank you so much for investing so much time in this great content. P.S. Is there a similar series for Set items (taken individually)? Or, if not, do you have any plans to do one?

[@GGMentor]

All the sets were done as a set, they are all up already you can see them here. kzbin.info/aero/PLMSHEYBEG_ON9354La62vbe9um_lqhA1f

[@yanniblumstein1]

03:50 so if you have 50% Crit Chance and 50% Deadly Strike or even more, it can be that nothing of both happen. So its always better to stack only one of both things if possible

[@GGMentor]

It still Equals more than a 50% chance though. Two 50% chances equals an effective probability of a 75% chance.

[@Dead-xk1lk]

If it's 50 and 50 trust me it's going to happen. My witch wild string and atmas ammy have 2% and 5% chance to proc amp damage and it goes off all the time. You would think it's 50% as much as it procs.

[@nightowl8363]

@@Dead-xk1lk nice.... i just had my barb hire an A1 merc, and gave her one... Need a way to break them physichal immunes

[@bigtate6304]

recently stumbled upon your channel, I was like wtf is wrong with dudes sternum, watching in awe as it moved around then your companion popped out. hahahahaha I had so many questions

[@GGMentor]

His name is Mr Nimoy, aka Nini, and he is a chinchilla he loves to sleep in my shirt. He is usually sleeping in my shirt, you can see a playlist of him here. kzbin.info/aero/PLMSHEYBEG_OMch3hSPo1zUiuuqgBNNu1-

[@JAFTW]

I use these on my zealadin and they are very effective.

[@GGMentor]

Aye, since paladins have no critical strike it is great to have a form of deadly strike on them

[@stevendibble5739]

That new intro tho

[@Yaksonator]

Love the intro!

[@GGMentor]

New outro too

[@msarilyn7677]

Countess may be a good choice as if you don't get it you will still get alot of runes.

[@GGMentor]

Aye Rune farming is certainly a good thing here. I think whenever you can cross purpose your magic find with other stuff it's a good thing.

[@msarilyn7677]

It may be better to go to a farming spot where there are no immunes of your element than to go to spots where you have to fight things that are immune to your damage type.

[@GGMentor]

Of course this is always a consideration when choosing a magic finding zone. Each person has to make this choice on their own there as there are 5 elements and multiple ways to mix them together.

[@silentvalue]

I accidentally sold my gores the other day while gambling for rings.....rip (assassin kicker)

[@GGMentor]

sadness

[@Dead-xk1lk]

I need these an war travelers. Which pair do you think do more damage for a bowazon? Gore or war?

[@GGMentor]

Bowa's whole life is Amazons i am gonna say go with his advice 🤣

[@Dead-xk1lk]

Perfect thanks bowa!!!

[@antonio-gt]

Hi GGM, i have a question: Does the Chance of crushing blow, open wounds or deadly strike get a penalty in hell difficulty?

[@GGMentor]

No, there is however a ranged penalty of half effectiveness for crushing blow.

[@Scooterrooter]

Set items and unqiues have been charged in project d2.make new video on them plz

[@RedmayneDeadmayne]

Bro if I had a nickel for every time I found a pair of these, I'd have like.... Like soooooo many nickels

[@GGMentor]

Lol wooden nickles 🤣

[@njdutoit]

Just equip Goreriders to all your melee characters. Problem solved.

[@RedmayneDeadmayne]

@@njdutoit all 0 Of them? Are you sure?

[@Omar_listenin]

Desperately trying to find these for my HC zealadin. Been a rough go so far

[@palatinus7896]

hmmm new intro like the freshnes in the chanel

[@brianhanson7118]

Since crushing blow is physical damage, is it doubled with amplify damage? 🤔

[@GGMentor]

Damage can be modified by target Damage Resist or Damage Reduced by %: DR > 0% decreases it (and DR > 99% results in immunity to it), but DR < 0% does not increase it. While a ceiling of DR 50% normally applies to player and mercenary, this does not apply to Crushing Blow damage. Sanctuary normally ignores DR > 0% when applying the supplier's physical damage to undead, but once again this does not apply to Crushing Blow damage: Immune to Physical undead remain immune to it.

[@brianhanson7118]

@@GGMentor Thanks for the thorough reply! I appreciate it and all the information in your videos

[@vuetoob3983]

That intro tune is like Robin Hood meets Suikoden

[@GGMentor]

Lol I find myself whistling it all the time

[@Dead-xk1lk]

Gives me Renaissance fair vibes.

[@RPDBY]

do perfect boots always upgrade into perfect boots? or is the upgrade result random like with Arreat's Face?

[@GGMentor]

It's based on the unique item identifier. Which is random for every item.

[@RPDBY]

@@GGMentor damn, may be too risky too upgrade!

[@RPDBY]

@@GGMentor i reread your comment and i dont think understand, it is random for every item, but is it fixed per item or does it roll another random number when upgrading?

[@Oldschoolsoundz]

nice intro man 👍

[@GGMentor]

Thank you sir

[@thomasgrabowski2202]

Gore riders or Shadow Dancers for Kicksin?

[@redhanded3979]

Got a pair today

[@GGMentor]

Nice, a great pair of boots

I got these for a pul rune is that bad?

Good deal

Where’s the best place to farm for gore rider boots

[@bonedog5130]

Requesting a formal meeting with Mr. Nini the chinchilla!

[@GGMentor]

Hmmm a sit down meet and greet with Mr Nimoy 🤔 It can be done

[@silverspork86]

I want a chinchilla. Not sure my dogs would appreciate it though

[@GGMentor]

We had two dogs for a long time with the chinchilla they really didn't care. The chinchilla lives in a cage and for the most part is safe from them. I wouldn't let them play together that's for sure. I have heard of dogs eating chinchillas if they get loose.

[@brandonlewis2105]

No offense. Has anyone told you you remind them of the male version of Carol Baskin? Love your videos btw

[@GGMentor]

Oh I am offended

[@XUndergroundRap]

Mo nemo!!!! Mo

[@Emet30]

I got the ethereal version of these boots off the frigid highland super unique. So let down from this...

[@GGMentor]

Use em until they break

[@Cornholers]

Sigh, only pair of boots in the game a melee chr should wear

[@GGMentor]

Depends highly on your other gear tbh. Gore riders can be redundant if you already have a ton of deadly strike, CB, and OW on other gear. It also depends on the skill used as some of it is also non functional

[@Cornholers]

Only other boots would be wartravelers lmO

[@Puregoobs]

Does this work online?

[@GGMentor]

Upgrading it? Yes it can be upgraded online
