Default Build My Character - D2: Nightmare


Build My Character - D2: Nightmare

So I've been wanting to replay Diablo 2 again and I've thought of a fun little way to go about it. I have a hero and item editor program for the game, so I've made myself a level 35 Barbarian fresh into Nightmare Difficulty, with very little to start with.



Most Recent Item Screenshots:



The only catch is, I won't be allowing myself to use any equipment I find in the game. That's where you come in. You choose two of the following per day and I'll hack the attributes onto one of my pieces of equipment. I have chosen increments on the following spreadsheet, but you only have to look below to see what you can boost -

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?usp=sharing

After each update, I'll post screenshots of the equipment so you can see the progression.

Attack:
Attack Rating
Hit Causes Monther to Flee %
Reduce Target Defense

Damage:
Attacker Takes Damage of
Chance of Open Wounds
Min to Max Cold Damage (x-2x dmg)
Max Cold Damage
2H Min to Max Dmg (Wep)
2H Min to Max Dmg
2H Min to Max Dmg
2H Min to Max Dmg
Max Dmg per Level (Div. by 8)
Damage to Mana%
Min to Max Fire Damage (x-2x dmg)
Max Fire Damage
Min to Max Lightning dmg (1-x)
Max Lightning Damage
Min to Max Magic Damage (x-2x dmg)
Max Magic Damage
Max Poison Damage
Poison Damage

Defense:
Defense vs Melee
Defense vs Missle
Defense (Up to 4 items)
Defense per Level (Div. 8)
Reduce Monster Defense Per Hit

Extra:
Heal After Each Kill
Experience Gain

Other:
Cannot be Frozen
Chance of Blocking
Knockback
Mana After Each Kill
Regenerate Mana %
Replenish Life
Slower Stamina Drain
Slows Target by %

Pierce: (Reduce Enemy Resistance)
Pierce Cold
Pierce Fire
Pierce Lightning
Pierce Fire

Reduce:

Damage Reduced By %
Magic Damage Reduce By
Poison Length Reduced By %

Resist:
Fire Resist
Cold Resist
Lightning Resist
Poison Resist
Max Cold Resist
Max Fire Resist
Max Lightning Resist
Max Poison Resist
All Resists

Speed:
Faster Block Rate
Faster Cast Rate
Faster Hit Recovery
Faster Run/Walk
Increased Attack Speed

Stats:
Dexterity
Energy
Life
Strength
Vitality

Steal:
Life
Mana

The only equipment I can find or buy will be for my mercenary, and Act 2 defiance merc (also level 35).

If there is any interest, I may stream myself running quests on this character.
Simply comment with two of the above attributes if you'd like to participate.


Now I'm just trying the game with this on hand and seeing how it goes.

The same attribute can be picked multiple times, so you you don't have to worry about not picking what someone else did.

Except for attack freezes target, I'll take that off the list now that it's been picked.

Edit:// Added in screenshots of the items that have been boosted so far

Never played them. Are there easy to use "hacking" tools for them for something like this?

I don't know if any of the existing D2 hacking tools would work on either of them, but they're both so fundamentally different from D2 mechanically and WAAYY harder, that just succeeding at either of them is enough of a challenge to not worry about things like not using certain gear.

I'm familiar with this, and I have the tools to make this work. It's more about giving up control over what my characters attributes will be that I find interesting.

Besides the challenge will be well enough, my damage is shit right now and a champion fallen can still hit for 20-30% of my health on a good swing lol.

Edit:// For progression sake, I'm going to allow one post per day boosting stats rather than per week. Otherwise I think it would take to long to progress imo.

gotta spam some skills. (I'm surprised you use +1 increments, I'd expect like +5)

lol @ /players 8

I will have to increase some increments. I'll take some video when I do the Den so people can see the creation in action.

I'm going to need some health potions

I gave up on this. For a challenge, I'm going to try beating normal with this wonderful charm in my inventory. Two positive traits, and a whole lot of negatives -
