Game Forum / Role Playing Games / Diablo 2 / December 2008Woestave
I found the unique halberd Woestave while cruising around NM recently. You know, this is one of those items that I've always sold to Charsi because it frankly has crappy damage. However, this time I took it for a spin with my barb (pun intended) and discovered that it made quick work the the NM Council! I wonder how many other "crappy" weapons are lying around that really aren't so crappy at all.... -Jason >I found the unique halberd Woestave while cruising around NM recently. > You know, this is one of those items that I've always sold to Charsi > because it frankly has crappy damage.

When they added level reqs to uniques (1.07? 1.08? something like that), they must have done it while high on crack and in a tearing hurry, because many of them make no sense at all. If Woestave had a level req of, say, 10, it would be good for ... ooh, about two acts of Normal.

My next barb will use only cracked weapons and armor. Compared to that, Woestave will be godly! :P -Jason It is crappy to all of you who never played hell without anni/torch, CtA and Enigma or Forty and whatnot... I have none of these and admittedly have a pretty hard time in hell. So I play a lot in nm where Woestave is VERY handy on my merc for levels 30-60 just for the slowing effect. I just rechecked: it's FULL of crowdcontrol mods. If there is no need for it then why don't you just hop to one of those "freeee" or "free for noobs" games after you have done your session and throw it on the ground there, somebody will be happy about it. > It is crappy to all of you who never played hell without anni/torch, > CtA and Enigma or Forty and whatnot... I have none of these and > admittedly have a pretty hard time in hell. It was crappy long before I had any of those items, too. The damage is just too low to be good, even in NM. >It is crappy to all of you who never played hell without anni/torch, >CtA and Enigma or Forty and whatnot... I have none of these and >admittedly have a pretty hard time in hell. I play in Hell quite a lot, often untwinked, only with an anni or torch after I have killed the relevant monsters (I do swap torches with people I trust), and have _never_ had a CtA, Enigma or Fortitude. And I do it in HC. Now that we have that cleared up.... It's still crappy, unless you are playing in Normal, or untwinked/early-in-ladder in NM. >So I play a lot in nm where Woestave is VERY handy on my merc for >levels 30-60 just for the slowing effect. I just rechecked: it's FULL >of crowdcontrol mods. It's handy for a few things -- e.g., if you don't have a Kelpie to slow down Dclone -- but overall, it's crappy. -- Roy L BorisOstruznjak@gmail.com wrote in news:0e69d788-e3b1-4dac-b429- adcb8aaf54d8@s20g2000yqh.googlegroups.com: >If there is no need for it then why don't you > just hop to one of those "freeee" or "free for noobs" games after you > have done your session and throw it on the ground there, somebody will > be happy about it. Been there... done that. It's a waste of time since most of the time, the item will just be picked up and sold to Charsi or Akara. Either that or it stays on the ground till it disappears. > BorisOstruznjak@gmail.com wrote in news:0e69d788-e3b1-4dac-b429- > adcb8aaf54d8@s20g2000yqh.googlegroups.com: [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > item will just be picked up and sold to Charsi or Akara.

When we could still use D2Loader, I used to keep a game named "freebies" open with a mule while doing MF runs in another game... then just keep going back to "freebies" to drop items. I often found that the game would get too many people joining and full-lock, resulting in me changing to "freebies-2", etc... If anyone started mass-selling items, I would tell them to stop... then if they kept selling, I'd tell everyone else that if they kept selling... I'd leave the game and nobody would get free... ...then if they still continued, I'd leave the game and normally go BaalRun in open games instead for a bit. I found with a bit of prompting, I could normally fill A1 town with huge amounts of items and people would be nice to eachother... swapping items, leaving the stuff they didnt want on floor, etc. Those that are really good about it sometimes got added to a list on my computer and whispered at new freebie games in the following days/hours so they could get more stuff :) |
