A few tips to get you started!
I will dominate the game, thanks Raxx!
I know that I 100% want to start with Necro.Still start with Sorceress?
pog!
Just the tip!
Thank you!
Rax, please honor this game with an hour-long tutorial much like the comprehensive one you did for D3 :)
Yes this please!!
Town is lava
mate, hes a busy guy lol, and anyways the greatest teacher is EXPERIENCE ;)
Why, exactly?
Can you guys fix the Maxx guides for rune words so they can be arranged by level and not just name? I’m sure early on new players might prefer to see rune words by level, toggle by name or level with a click. Keep up the good guys!!!
I adore D2 for a long time and i realise NOW that i do know nothing! Especially about Rune words. Thanks a lot Raxx, another superb guide...
Even I've been playing Diablo II like crazy so many years ago, this guide has been really useful, thank you! Looking forward your future guides for the D2R, cannot wait to play it again!
Nice starting guide. Just a few tips to add to it:
1. Health/mana potions refill life/mana over time. Rejuvenation potions are instant, refill 1/3 health AND mana, and 3 combine in the Horadric Cube to make a Full Rejuv, which restores 100% health and mana.
2. Raxx mentioned Stamina potions. Stamina, Thawing, and Antidote potion benefits all stack when used, giving 30 additional seconds per use, with Thawing also providing an additional 50% Cold resist and Antidote 50% poison resist. The resistances never add more than 50% though, only the duration stacks. So for example, using 10 at once will give 5 minutes of benefit.
3. At lower levels, using a shield can potentially(though rarely due to low monster damage) get you killed due to the block animation, mainly when surrounded(don't get surrounded) by mobs. You cannot move when blocking, and you cannot block when moving. Also, the first attack after blocking will miss 100% of the time, even on Single Player.
4. With runewords, check to make sure the item you want to socket is the proper item for that runeword, or it won't work. For example with Polearm runewords, be certain the item is one of these: www.diablo-2.net/items/polearms. Also, don't fall for the trap of 'Mechanics' items. They come with sockets, but are magical(blue), so as Raxx mentioned, they WILL NOT work.
5. Ethereal items are 50% stronger than regular items, but cannot be repaired and will break over time, unless it has the "repairs over time" affix. However, items equipped on followers(Mercs) will never lose durability thus never need repair.
6. You can quickly heal the follower by pressing shift+1,2,3 or 4. The alternative is just to drag and drop the potion on the followers picture in the top left. Also works with Thawing and Antidote.
7. Hold shift to stand in place and use an ability. Great for casters.
for non sorc classes early on, you can buy a teleport charges staff from vendors at character level 19+, they are expensive to repair but an ort + chipped gem will repair the charges them.
Really nice list. Useful information for new players. I don't think every player needs to start with a sorceress, but if you have no preference, you can't go wrong with her, especially in softcore.
Raxx, your tutorial for Diablo 3 season start up really helped me out, and as a once avid Diablo 2 player, thank you again for putting out this great tutorial!!!
I wish I could give you 10 thumbs up! The simple description of how to figure out where to go when running countess has helped me A TON! I'm making a fortune running T-Keys and finding runes. I've already found 3 PUL runes and 5 T-keys in the last 4 days.
I was 14 when this game came out!! I needed this cause I haven’t played it since. Thank you Rax.
I was just going to say, weren't you 14 with this game came out? That's crazy!
Thank you for this! I never played LoD so there's a ton of additions that I have no clue about.
Thanks for the uploads man. Most people don't explain things as well as you do. I appreciate the help.
I played this a lot as a kid. Info like this is a good example of new generation of players. Highly competitive and singular focus to win. Really zaps the mystery and fun out of the game. I guess everyone is just going to make a sorc and run around like the same direction, wearing the same equipment, having the same build, following same guide, rush through, etc. because ‘it’s the best’ and they don’t want to left behind.
you dont have to do that, there is so many builds you can do that are not main stream.
For real. The game isn't so hard to justify this stuff. Talk about solved lol
Completely agree with you. I have no interest in following any build or doing anything any specific way. I want to play diablo 2 and want to experience it. Not “oh, I have to pick this until I get this then farm that for these so I can level up those”. I just beat diablo for the first time using the assassin. I had the clone distract him for a split second to hit him in the back with my basic attack then ran when the clone got killed in a single hit. I died over and over and over because I couldn’t take anymore hits than my clone. My skills were useless. I was using two claw weapons. After defeating him and moving to act 5, switch to the cool scythe he dropped because the claws were junk and all the points I put into boosting them are wasted, but I’m super happy because I’m having fun doing my own thing and learning as I play.
By the way, I horde gems and runes and keep my inventory empty for cool gear I might find. I’ve yet to use any of the gems or runes because I don’t find them necessary, yet.
Yeah it’s pretty amusing how a guide for new players is: “go farm the first boss as sorceress”.
I don’t think most players are looking forward to farming and getting some OP armor so early. Most people are not into playing this game for thousands of hours like it’s a job, grinding for items and following build guides, they will finish the campaign once or twice then move on.
U sound so salty lol get a life
Ty for your in depth guides, they really helped me a lot... Putting an insight on your follower early on is truly a game changer. I was thinking to give back a little for your next videos. You keep saying left and right when you talk about map logic. I think clockwise and counterclockwise makes it so much easier to explain... especially for the Countess. Keep up the good work!
Started playing D2 today, for the first time and this Hints helped alot! Thanks!
Awesome vid as always, been playing alot of POE the past 6 months so Im glad to be back and looking forward to D2R this week, also glad to see Maxroll is going stronger than ever
I really hope this game will revive me gaming again, i played this as a teenager, now in my mid-30s with a family, job and other interests.
- subbed so i can learn playing again.
Keep gaming for life bro
This is great advice! Thanks. Just bought it and was struggling after a few hours in with a necro.
Gonna start fresh with a sorceress and follow your tips
I love necromancer but I might make a sorceress.
Didn't know about the 'turn-left' tip for Countess farming. Thanks! Subscribed
Good to see actual d2 vets making starter content coming back from d3. There's some d3 content creators making content for d2 and it's so obvious they've never put hours in.
Edit: The only thing I would add to this tips guide is about the advantage of light armour over heavier armour types for movement/stamina drain.
Wait, so defence rating is not important, and it's better to wear light armor?
@stanislavp1739 in 99% of all circumstances in the endgame your armor rating is useless
It's important to note that you don't go into hit recovery every time you get hit. It's only when you take 1/12 of your maximum
life in a single hit, so the more vitality you invest in the less often you will go into faster hit recovery. Early on most good players invest exclusively onto vitality so they don't go into FHR often.
Great vid, excited to play this week!
All your guides are very informative and easy to understand. Keep up the great work.
You are very good at explaining stuff in an easy to understand manner. Great video, thank you!
Awesome tips! I forgot what exactly I did, but I was able to beat the game back in the day.. but I definitely figured things out for myself.. but this guide would have made my progress so much faster back in the day and if I play again!
Excellent tutorial. Especially regarding the Countess
i'm one of those D2 players that has played on/off since 06, and i know many things about the game, but this guide still gave some refreshed understanding and tips. the value of early runewords was really good. but you really hit home when you said "you wanna make an amazon? .. start with a sorc" .. i literally begun leveling my amazon for an hour last night when servers opened.. but i guess i know what i'm spending the weekend on!
Outstanding guide. Well explained and straight to the point. I just bought the game 16:46 for ps5 and haven’t played the pc game in 10+ years
Just a refresher and I can't wait to play again. Gonna get my buddies together and group up and lvl can't wait
nice job man. thank you!
Just as always, great Presentation!
When I was a teen and Diablo 2 came out, I really wish I had had a better understanding of rune words. I remember struggling to get through Normal difficulty, only to get constantly slaughtered in Act 1 Nightmare difficulty. I played through D2 last year during quarantine, and rune words allowed to me to literally walk through Normal difficulty and cruise through Nightmare.
Thanks Rax. I have alot of hours in D2 as well but would not have thought to start the Sorceress and farm runes. Really looking forward to your D2 content!
Cb sorc = fastest early farming
Thanks, haven't played since like 2001 and I sure as shit didn't know what I was doing back then.
This was a great starter and reminder for me...thanks man
Starting as a support/bo barb for my team! So hyped! Good to see you on D2 Raxx
Agree 100% with you, Sorceress is a no brainer for solo play
@Deathplan haha it is challenging early - I was lucky to start with a full group. We're mostly farming ubers, so having a barb really helps 😅
Thank you for this video!!! I will start with a sorceress.. and i have played all the diablo 1,2, and 3.. Great job!!!
Watched so many of your vids super glad to find out you'll be doing some d2 love the vids
Excited to see my fave D3 coach doing D2R content!
Awesome guide. Thank you!
Thx for all info Raxx ;.)
thank you for this video,been watching videos after videos and they say stuff that might as well be in another language,i appreciate this for new players
Clear and on the spot , thanks!
Ty dude. Did D2 a loong time ago. Such a great help!!
You earned my sub for this video and made changed my mind - Im levelling a sorc now!
Wow dude these are tips I haven’t seen on any other video A1!
ty!! it very helpfull i'm newbie . hope wait ep2 Hints :)
so good to see you after so long time bro :)
Very helpful, thanks.
Thanks as always!
Excellent tips and explaining. Thanks!
This is my favorite game. I played it in the 2000s and never played with a sorceress. Necromancer rules
First time checking your videos. Very well said, straight-forward and thorough! Definitely subbed. Cheers!
My biggest problem when playing D2 was always switching difficulties. I could make a new character, blast through normal in two sittings, and then not be able to kill or even get to Countess on Nightmare. Then I would slowly and painfully grind up some gear and get to a good point, blast through the rest of Nightmare, then have the same issue starting up Hell. After watching this video I think it is because I was always focusing on an end game build rather than "what will be strong from 25-50" or whatever
I had this game forever but I never looked up stuff. I need this.
Thanks for this. Much appreciated
I'm a long time D2 player and literally never knew about the logic mapping. Cool! Thank you!
Nice tips. I'm just glad that my fav class Assassin have Teleport-ish skill by herself so no need to play the class that i dont enjoy just as much. Still Sorc farm faster, but i'd rather play slower with the class i like than class i dont like.
Enigma has it though
@@Azsunes yes of course, tho it’s very expensive, I don’t expect it to own as fast as I want to 😂
These type of guides with emphasis is much better for new players!
Oh, and consider making YOUR style of guide for hazards, like "red portal safe", eh, NO it's not. I should know, I have hoarded a hundred cows there myself xD GG hardcore players
GLHF and I'll catch you streaming once in a while.
This video is amazing. You know só much about this game. Never knew it went so deep. Awesome video thanks
awesome vid bro!
First timer here. Didn’t realize how freakin different D2 was from D3. Now I get why so many D2 players were irked. Seems like D3 went super casual compared to D2 (not bashing, just an observation. My wife and I love D3). Having played D3 for years, I’m really excited to sink my teeth into this next week and get a completely new Diablo experience. Would love more in depth coverage from ya Raxx. Thx for the tips.
D2 isn't some uber complicated game. Just play it how you want and you'll enjoy it. Yes it's a bit more difficult than D3 - but if you played D3 on release before they nerfed it, the challenge will be similar. It really doesn't require a specific set of tips and rules like this dude is presenting lol
Thank god you spoke in simple terms so a noob like me understands. Some of these d2 guys say hey hows it going and I don't understand a word after.
have been going back and forth on what to start with, I know the other stuff so I'm gonna take that last tip to heart. thanks.
edit - realizing I haven't played one since like 2004, maybe it's time to do some light practice in pd2 before the 23rd lol.
I've been playing Diablo 2 for a while, and my friend, you taught me a few things here and there ehhehe. Thanks bud!
I played this game hard 20 years ago .....and everything you said is spot on ....Great Vid
I watched your 5 year vid earlier today . N i stumbled on this vid n i started a pally n just killed that boss but thia is a game changer. Im makin a sorcerer. Ty
New to the game and best guide ive come across so far 🙌 thank u
Hey rax nice video!! I would add 1 things.
Pay attention to strength required for the item you are runeword on.
Come swards or armor kill your trading power due to high strength stat...
Okay thanks for this. I'm totally new to D2, never played 1 or 2 so this will help. Very weird to not keep inventory clean though, but I'll try it. Starting new game now. :D Wish me luck!
Thank you Rex! Last time when I'm D2ing, I thought Paladin Hammer was the way to go, after seeing your THIS video, finally I know how to farm! i'm 20+ that time, till now, I'm already 40+ :(
Hammerdin is still one of the best builds in the entire game. It's technically very gear-independant, it doesn't struggle as much with immunities (there aren't many "magic immune" monsters) and it is one of the best, if not the best, MF build. But, the endgame build is very difficult and/or expensive to assemble, because you need an Enigma for the Teleport. That's why Blizzard Sorceress is generally considered to be the best for stuff like solo self-found, as your first build after a ladder reset, very easy MF, and of course everything Raxx said in the last part of the video.
I actually forgot about teleporting in and out to reset traders,I was logging off and in to reset,when I was grinding Countess. This video is helpful even for old players. I didn't play in 10y or even more. Make some more dude.
See even for experienced players, this is a good video to watch. I haven't played d2 in 16-17 years. Great refresher.
As an experienced player since diablo 2 first released, these videos are still good to watch.
god damn. it's been so long, I forgot alot of this game. Hopefully there are tears of joy when a first timer remembers to fill the inventory with at least 1 portal scroll and all the health potions they can stuff in there before they hit Andariel's room
oh my god this is super exciting , I am new to D2R and will be consuming all Raxx's guides
You can pick up certain items, especially to start, wands, scepters, higher level armors, all get you that cold hard cash to buy your Leaf Staff, or TP staff.
Great guide.
Very meaty video... thanks for sharing.
Godly tips, tnx bro ;)
you are really good at explaining it
Awesome vid Raxx, keen to see what gear you had on for this video though. Not sure if you just put on basic gear (like a 10%cast ring) or if this is some gear you are still using past hell mode? Def starting a sorc (favourite toon anyways) but especially after seeing this. Thanks.
Awesome guide, bud.
Thank you for the tips! I will for sure be using these when I get the game which I am hyped for!! I played a crazy ton of D3 but not much of the first two cause I didn't have a PC growing up.
Question - You don't think the developers fixed these for the new release? Like how to reset the vendor? Just curious, and I hope it's that easy!
Great tips, thanks a zillion Raxx!
Solid guide
Thank you! ❤😊
One of the best guides I have had the pleasure of watching today. 10* ps - you got a new subscriber
Outstanding!
As a former d1(hf aswell) and d2 classic hc Player (lod for resolution) I am impressed by some news. Thank you ❤️👍
Btw. Do we start with -40req weapons or just 30%
So glad to see you on D2R content. Let’s play the HELL out of this game 😇
Summoner Necro is an amazing way to learn the game, but dont sleep on Corpse Explosion! Just beat Hell difficulty first time, all offline and I love this game
Even if they said that not much has been changed at the base, but the tower in particular is much larger and often the tactic with "only left" does NOT work
This video is so good! I can't wait till d2r and just enjoy sorc man, ty. I want to be good again but i havnt played this game in so long i forgot everything. I remeber having a 99 hammerdin who did pindle all day. I am not playing that anymore lol but i do remembqer sorc is where i started too... as a noob🤣
Hi Rax, thank you for your always top videos. Can you make a video step by step like, fist thinks to do in D3 season for D2 ? I mean start wit the sorceress then lv to 5 skill this, with lv 7 go for this... looking for some gear like this ... use this runes ? This would be a good help for all who never played D2 like me. Hope everyone is playing and enjoing the game.
best content creator ;) love ur movies bro! keep that amazing job !!! PEACE !
On my first ever play through would you still recommend the sorcerer? Won't I miss out by skipping over too much to fast or do you still think the experience I'll have is the same
I dunno about tip 1. Beginning enemies REALLY aren't that difficult. But I've only ever player classes with summons.
The hero we don’t deserve. Very helpful!!!
