Have fun. Don't let game become a 2nd job. If barb is your favourite character, start it with barb. You are not competing on ladder that you should find as much as possible on day 1. Allow yourself to have days where you play just for fun instead of chasing your your items on most efficient way possible.

Awesome video Phil, currently working on my own grail. It's been on and off for about 2 years now and the biggest thing that keeps me going is just taking breaks when I need. Part of what's wonderful about this game and keeps me coming back is how consistently fun the game is. Especially offline, there's no point burning yourself out when you're not racing anyone. Take your time, chill, and if you find yourself getting burnt out, take a break until you're excited to play the game again. Thanks for all the awesome content over the years, makes farming LK bearable! You're the best D2 content creator around.

I've been an offliner since the early days of D2 and the SPF. It's fun and rewarding starting over, and I've done it differently each time. My most recent run on D2R went Blizz sorc then hammerdin after I LK'd an enigma. Now I have the gear to start just about any character I want.

I'm not sure you're giving good advice here since the introduction of Terror Zones. If you complete the game as Cold Sorc then you'll be able to open up the TZs and farming the TZs for the relevant Sunder charm has to be way more efficient and enjoyable than grinding Lower Kurast for the high runes need for Infinity? In fact I'd say to any beginner starting out, forget all the high stuff because that comes later. Sometime months later. Get good on characters with basic and junk items. Anyway, even without a Cold Sunder, Frozen Orb/Hydra is a workable build early on. Just have to remember that the Sorc in Hell can be really soft. Stealth, Spirit, Lore and Insight are all early targets. Peasant Crown socketed with a Topaz is a cheap alternative to Shako. You can roll for a Prismatic amulet if an all res doesn't drop. Any items that will help increase your mana pool early on is good. Sapphires in the helm for example. 10FCR rings with mana. Mana charms. I always bring my spell casters up to a base DEX of 35 so they'll be able to wield HOTO on a flail. A small sacrifice that can avoid a respec. Again for spell casters, base STR up to 160 which would cover requirements for dusk shrouds, Archon plates, but mostly the Spirit Monarch. Except for Hammerdins who can use a 4os class shield instead. Non-spell casters go up to STR 105. A 3os bow with emeralds is useful in Normal Diablo fight. You can keep him at range and eventually whittle him down. Also useful for a sorc early on when low on mana. Use a combo of casts and shooting until the mana pool can be grown and replenished with greater mana pots. Early farming targets could be Blood Raven (to get merc prior to lvl 8), Coldcrow, Bishbosh, Rakinishu and Countess. Or it might be better to push. Gambling can be a thing early on too. I always stash/mule early items for twinking new characters. Good targets to keep are: 1-2 cold damage charm for the melee builds Mana charms. Low level set items - Hsarus, Deaths Guard belt/gloves, Arctic, set etc Sigons for early melee builds is great. Plus AR rings, in lvl 0, lvl 3, lvl 6, lvl 9 and lvl 12 tiers. After that eventually you get Angelic amu/ring combo. An assortment of items that bear resistances. Lightning and fire are priorities. Wands and Sorc Orbs that could have useful +skills, otherwise good to sell. Small charms with +resistance. Any large charms from Act3 NM onwards are good for re-rolling and going for plus skill charms. That's why you hoard and cube normal and flawless gems and skulls. Grand charms can be good for high values, but large charms are probably not worth keeping most of the time. I don't worry about a 4os polearm dropping. Either I gather the items for rolling in the cube or one drops in Hell. Fallen camps in Act 1, especially on TZ, and no MF seem to be as good a way as any to farm for these. Finally in single player it is possible to lvl quickly early on in players 8. It doesn't seem to be much harder. Nightmare Terror Zones on players 8 is a really good way to earn experience quickly, especially in the early acts. Those TZs will also drop all manner of useful items.

Extremely squishy though and not worth running baal more than once, just sticking to andy/meph until getting good gear is easy though.

One problem I see in this guide and experience(d) myself running the Holy Grail is that everyone assumes everyone wants to endleslly grind/farm the same boss with the same character. For many that's where the fun dies because of the low drop rates. You may seriously be running Andy or Meph with your Sorceress dozens of hours in a row... My top tip for all of you who don't like that; run the game with each char normal to hell but set yourself to the limitation that you must always pursue 200 or more Magic Find (MF). It will be a challenge to make every build work with such gear but that makes it more rewarding and has as added benefit that you typically will always find enough good items to progress one or the other character. By the time you've made all character types to beat Hell Baal you will have diverse builds, all with MF, allowing you to diversify your farming as desired. And when you've reached the holy grail, do it all again but now with different builds. Maybe no Javazon, no trapsin, no hammerdin, no blizz sorc or go Hardcore. All ways to increase the skill cap

my first one is always a skeleton (with mages!) summoner with dim vision, freezing merc. decrepify on stronger ones, with the merc monsters have no chance - they hardly move at all. it starts relatively slow, but once you have gear for your merc so he doesn't die you can run around in hell, cast your minions with +skill gear, swap to mf. its not an act boss killer - they take some time - but for everything else its just walking, little casting and collect the riches.

I'm going to run counter to SweetPhils recommendation. You absolutely should beat the game. The sorcerer can fairly easily do it with some farming. Just don't play hardcore. Why should you beat the game? Terror zones. You want to unlock those as fast as you can. Farming them is just another way of breaking the monotony. I'd say getting the enigma before infinity is correct, incase you want to switch to other characters, like the paladin for your smiter, so that you can start to do ubers for torches.
@asbjrnfossmo15892 ай бұрын
In LoD I would agree not to finish the game right away, but in D2R it is another story. Get to lvl 91 ASAP; terror zones will help with that. The drops from TZ hell andy improve a LOT when you're lvl 91, same with the other act bosses. And just to mention it, TZ NM andariel drops equal or better than hell andariel when lvl 69 or higher. Also, might want to stop by NM andariel anyway, because of the 1:31 odds of getting a SoJ if she drops a unique ring. Best odds in the game. Also looking for some MF gear (Goldwrap, Nagel, Chanchies, Tarnhelm, Tancred boot+amulet, Tal amu, etc) and generally useful items such as vipermagi, magefist, frostburn, good chance for rare amulets, merc stuff like shaftstop... and that's when not terrorized. Also, as soon as shaft and/or gaze is available, you can level safely on pindleskin very quickly. Merc tanks, Glacial Spike once or twice to freeze the whole gang, then couple of blizzards finish them off, even at max players.

this is a great video, good job phil. I think this is a fine way of starting.

My favorite starter char is probably the sin, wake of fire for the first 30-40 levels then switch to death sentry/kick hybrid. works really well, i get a teleport amulet or staff and that build right there is just insane, not great mfer tho. going barb early can be done well, going screamer barb into ww, after finding some weapons, especially on hc, having that battle orders early is a world of difference. Lots of ways to start, I think your way is solid.

I really struggled with the enigma vs infinity debate. Had 2 bers sitting in my stash for a while. Then they released the Cure Runeword, which put the Nova Sorc over the top. I had already made a COH with my first ever BER which just sat in my stash and felt like a waste, now it was best in slot for a prayer merc, it had a purpose. So i made a self wield infinity in a sick looking scythe. I got so nervous to roll it , then to my amazement i saw a -55 , which makes up for the fact that litterally every other expensive runeword ive rolled has been below average. (5 ctas all 3 BO or less, a ebotd warpike that rolled almost anti perfect 352% / 12%, my highest grief rolled +364).
@yan-amar3 ай бұрын
I'd dual spec the sorc with Fireball, it wrecks Andy and makes Meph fall faster. Helpful in the stony tombs too and many other places. I actually disagree on the old Infinity VS Enigma first question. Sure Enigma gives you convenience, faster runs. But Infinity opens up /players7 for many builds which I find more interesting than just being able to skip parts. More rune drops. Many areas don't really need teleport, and many builds can manage a high run speed, or do with a teleport staff in the meantime. Sure the necro kinda really needs enigma, the hammerdin makes more sense with it. But many other builds don't really need it.

necro is the best for absolute fresh starts. the summoner can clear the entire game without a respec. that is literally the only reason i do it. the summons cover all immunities, albeit sometimes it can be slow. it can be done. otherwise, you can do the meta sorc. i would recommend just getting to hell and farming the living crap out of nightmare until you get decent enough gear. than push thru hell. can take a bit longer. but you get more loot/gear/upgrades. so it can feel more rewarding. enigma is indeed the first major runeword you need to make. infinity is great. but its just not as game changing as the enigma. have multiple accounts for a holy grail because you wont have enough space. unless you level up mules to a point they wear gear. but even then. thats not giving you that much more space. most important by far.. be patient. because this game is RNG. and you could be like me in season 8 here at almost 400 hours on the season farming and i still havent got my draculs grasp for my smiter. dont expect drops

Why would you need a 2nd account for a grail? Most grails are offline where you can make infinite chars. Also respecs dont matter on a grail so I would rather run something that can get through the game fast with respecs than slow like summoner. With TZ and having numerous chars the enigma vs infinity debate is a bit closer. I think what runes you drop is more the determiner than the classic ebugma first mentality.

I did a sorc first but find it pretty difficult to aim blizzard on a console. I’m doing a Hammerdin now and wish I had the mobility of sorc but aiming the blizzard kind of turned me off

also played with a controller for a while and skilled Frozen Orb instead ofc it's less powerfull but way easier to aim

Remind me the time I put all stats on holy shot, the bosses died in a swift, the only problem would be those animal people in chapter 2 which holy magic deal no damage what So ever.

There should be some other benefit to finishing the game other then 'Now you get Terror zones". Maybe give the player a coupe Skill Points O:)

I want to start a holy grail on diablo 2 resurrected but Im actually scared of the muling thing... Like when I did it on diablo 2 LOD I add the plugy program with infinite stash space. Now I got no plugy and it's solo offline, so how can I mule my item if I want to keep one of each if I can't mule them since I play solo offline other then if they change that frrom diablo 2 LOD.
@maryrosetran51095 күн бұрын
I'm doing this right now(not intentionaly, I'm just a natural hoarder). Your mule can literally just take the item from shared storage. And since you're not avert to using "plugins", there's mods that increase inventory space.

I never once finished a holy grail, Tyraels might just doesnt exist, how many unique sacred armors did i find? A few hundred. I actually even made my own infinity and even an enigma in my search for tyraels might. Meaning i found 3 bers and 1 jah rune, not exactly i did upgrade other runes as well but still. Just to maybe hammer home the point, 2 vex = 1 ohm, 2 ohm = 1 Lo, 2 Lo = 1 sur, 2 sur = 1 ber. So one ber is 2 sur, which is 4 Lo, which is 8 ohms which is 16 vex, which is 32 gul, which is 64 ist. which is 124 mal. Now after i made an infinity i made a lightning sorc which is a lot quicker then a cold sorc.

@ktc2413 ай бұрын
Its more of a suggestion and letting people know you don't have to beat the game to fully gear out a character. Also most of the fun you have with the game is farming and getting loot rather then completing the game.
@letsbensch2 ай бұрын
Chaos Sanctuary and Ancients can be really difficult in hell, especially when you are dealing only one type of elemental damage. So depending on skill, knowledge and whatnot it can be easier/better to farm for better gear instead of forcing yourself through the last two acts. I guess it was rather ment to be a "you don't have to kill baal before farming" than a "you shouldn't..."

1:25 dumbest advice ever. Beginners get killed guaranteed playing a sorceress. 2:00 blizzard, second worst advice. 3:00 teleport, again, bad advice The best (safe) is poison vine druid. You don't need anything and enjoy the game on p7. (yes fire claws is better for experts but we're talking beginners here) holy fire paladin is a good second just don't get tempted into spending any point in anything else. Again - you don't need any gear, everything melts at p7. (but pal is confusing to beginners, so not recommended to start with) against bosses, dial down to p1 and you should be fine. Sorceress is possible after that, but you need runes and stuff, and even then, lightning spark thing only. And you'll probably die a lot. oh and use mules to hoard stuff. ring mule, amulet mule that sort of thing. a note on teleport - you do NOT want to skip monsters. You want the xp. and the loot. Especially since you have nothing in your stashes yet.

It's not. It's better for online when the player count is capped at 1 and the maps are random, but for a static map and p7 lk runs are a multiple better for runes and charms.
