Hello everyone! After last years RFL, running my hdin up to lvl 98, and just other playing, I was beginning to realize I had a lot more crafting materials tucked away than I usually do before crafting them. I decided to wait a little longer, and now have enough materials for 666 caster amulet...

Hardcore Holy Grail Sorceress Introduction Hello everyone. I (somewhat) recently started up my first ever hc character, a sorceress named Amaresu. I created her to participate in the Orange You Glad That Rune Dropped tournament HERE. This took quite a while, but was loads of fun, and I managed...

Amaresu was the first HC character I've ever made, and I created and ran her for the "Orange You Glad that Rune Dropped" tournament, hosted by @PhineasB here (LINK). In this tourney, your character could only use crafted items, reward rings, imbues, anya rewards, and personalized items. It was...

LINK TO SHEET (must download to use) Alright I'm pretty excited for this one. Buckle up for lots of discussion of results from this simulator in the posts following this one. Read at your own pace, because there will be a good bit to digest :D. This was a simulator I had in the back of my mind...

LINK to sheet (must download to use) Here, by popular request, I finally finished an AT barb simulator, akin to my pitzerker simulator. Made in excel again, so you will have to download the sheet and enable macros to run it. This simulator is a whole lot more complex than the pitzerker one, for...

LINK to calculator Hello all, I made calculator that computes the possible resistances and their likelihoods/distribution for unique monsters anywhere in the game. This was done in excel in hopes that it will make it easy for others to use. @art_vandelay made the exact same tool in python, and...

Dear SPF, What are your D2 goals and aspirations for 2021? For me: No. Goal Progress --- ---------------------------- -------------------- 1. Level 99 with twinked hdin lvl 96.65, 38 hours in 2. Complete runeword grail 72/78 (last wish...

Copying this post a good bit from @T72on1's thread on the old forum here. I remember getting pumped about an hdin 99er after reading it early on my time on the forum, and now here I am. I've been doing a good amount of pits and tunnels runs over the last year or so, which has been great, but...

Introduction Hi everyone. I was looking into the rate at which different monster types spawn in different areas. In particular this came up while working on my pitzerker simulator, so of primary interest to is pits and ancient tunnels, and those are the two areas I will mostly discuss. But this...

The Runefinding Tour Hello everyone! Was feeling the need for a bit more runefinding lately in an attempt to make some progress on my runeword grail. With how much I've been enjoying my 1kmw project for making magic finding progress while keeping things fresh, I thought I should do something...

I'm reposting this simulator I posted on the old forum on Jan 14, 2020. I would like this to not move to the archive since I have some new discussion resulting from using it lately. LINK TO SHEET (must download to use) Introduction Hi all. There was some interesting discussion recently in the...

Dear SPF, What are your D2 goals and aspirations for 2020? As the first quarter wraps up, I thought it would be a great time for a goals check-in. If you already posted your goals at the beginning of the year, give us an update! If not, it's never too late :P. For me: No. Goal...

Introduction Hi all. I finally finished questing my zon through the game yesterday. Since I had stopped posting my patmat threads when I completed a character, I thought I would just post this summary when I finally finished the sept. I have always liked the idea of a "team" of characters in d2...

Arkana, my untwinked sorceress, and my first character made after resetting to join the SPF, reached level 99 on Sunday! Start: January 4, 2019 End: March 1, 2020 First, here is a video of the final few nihlathak runs, dinging 99 on ancients, and getting matriarch afterwards. I aborted...

[originally posted by Hrus on April 5, 2005] 1.10 Grail Status Tables (4-5-2005) What is the Grail? Grail is a collection of all unique and set items in the game. We don't collect runes here. We have a self-found grail and grail with traded items included. In wider meaning it could be a goal...

[reposted from March 12, 2019] Hi everyone., I really like to do some practical D2 math, and even better if I can get a reusable calculator/spreadsheet from it. @Gripphon 's runefinding guide is one of my favorite posts ever, and I reference it all the time. (Link to guide - If you haven't read...

[reposted from July 12, 2019] Hi all. I have seen countess rune drop chances for past versions of the game posted here, but never have seen an update for 1.13b through 1.14d. This is probably because the runes are so bountiful from countess and LK that people either don't care as much about the...

A while back I heard on dbrunski125's stream a claim that that Snapchip was bugged and dropped poorly. Since I had recently seen the tournament on here that included snapchip and @ffs 's theory crafting for fire sorc snapchip runs, I thought I would investigate this further. It turns out...

Hey all, I made this sheet a while back and cleaned it up so it looked acceptable. Thought this is useful for seeing how many runs you should expect with whatever grailers you have remaining. Also note the inputs that are in there are NOT for my own grail (I'm at like -41 :P). LINK: D2 Grail...
