Anyone who asks me why I don't like D4, I link this video as the reason. These very emotions, which work just as well today, are 100% absent from D4. Thx for this video.
This reaction warms my soul. I just recently downloaded d2r having not played D2 for 20 years however Diablo IV got me back into the series enough to seek D2R...so thank you D4. Diablo rules.
high enhanced damage 4os sacred targe has value because its used as a phoenix base because +400% enhance damage on phoenix is best in slot for Smite damage in pvp edit: also BIS because sacred targe has the highest block chance which means you can put less points into dex. so for example, if you are able to reach max block with 20 fewer points in dex, really it's saying +20 vitality. This is essential for pvp
@@factsrecorderjohn5800 my statement is referring to his asking in the video if they were used for PVP reasons. For pvp, we are not interested in vortex shields, we are interested in achieving max block with the least possible dexterity input. We are interested in good max damage with the highest ability to roll points into vita. this is the nature of my response and these are the reasons why sacred targes are commonly considered best in slot for pvp.
This video taught me that I know absolutely nothing about Diablo 2's endgame and I wouldn't know if any of these are worth anything other than "oh cool, + to skills and resistances" xD
Thanks for clicking dudes! Here are the answers to some questions for those who might be curious :D - This took 58 hours and three minutes with an average run time of three minutes and 29 seconds - My magic find is displayed throughout the video on the top left of screen - This was online on ladder season 4 (players 1) - I started at level 76 and finished off at level 94 and seven bars (I died a couple of times...RIP) - Drop odds are calculated from Maxroll, with whatever magic find I had at the time and from the monster that dropped that particular item - I think I check 'most' of the blues and yellows that I'm meant to nowadays, but none were good enough to make the cut! Please consider giving the like button a little tap tap taparoo if you liked it!
Man, looking at this... D4 really needs to look at D2 for the loot. D2's loot has personality. So many drops to be excited about. D4 has six uniques that are so rare you might as well hope to win an IRL billion dollar lottery, a ton of uniques (of which most you wont use) that drop all the time, and mock-up legendaries you barely pay attention to. Anyway, great video. Gratz on the drops 😄
Your excitement is so contagious! I sheered almost as hard as you on that Skiller, the amazing torches and the SoJ :D But a Jah for perfect Gores? Didn't knew that were possible. This little extra defence does exactly nothing, but when some fellas pay a Jah for it, I would not complain :D
Upped perfect gores are loved by the PvP players, when upped they can reach 213 def (if you are lucky, really lucky), which is only 51 defense difference, but in PvP min-maxing is a thing. Then they worth a LOT. He did well though, not taking the gamble.
I think because he's a streamer alot of viewers might try to overpay for items as a way to give handouts to the streamer. Some people do not realise this is happening. Unless maybe bots are so bad that jah runes are basically worthless I can't see this not being the case. Perfect Gore's have never been worth that much in my years playing the game. There were a few other items that were over paid for as well in my opinion. But as long as you are having fun you are playing the game right.
Honestly I find a lot of these videos to be pretty cheesy guilty pleasures. You’re excited like I was when I first started playing the game. But I have found that after watching these videos I now get super excited when I find anything of value. Probably a combination of this level of excitement being contagious and having a full time job, wife and kids and not being able to play much or having the patience to grind for gear. This explains why I did the arms in the air thing when I popped a vex accidentally spam clicking a coffin on an Andy TZ run, an Ohm from countess and a nearly perfect griffs from a boss mob of ghosts in the tower on a 92 something TZ rune and key farming mission. Watching these videos has improved my RNG.
As someone new to the franchise with Diablo 4, man this game looks way more fun. Maybe it's the fact that there are more uniques, but also I love the idea of farming a final dungeon/boss for the best loot and I'm not sure D4 has that yet.
Hey Schmuck, you have to make a seperate video for the amazing torch streak! I’m so glad I watched it live!! Just to answer your question in the end, the ed/ar roll has indeed value for pvp, in particular to roll phoenix in it and to gain a maximum of 465ed on it.
Dude the torches is what was craziest to me too. I've seen schmuck ID so many shitty torches, I couldn't believe how good these were. 18/20 pally like 4 of the high sorc ones. Perfect Druid. How much was that whole haul worth!???? 50 hrs? 100!?
It really is incredible to think there are several items that you’ve never found and you’ve been playing so consistently for 20 years. This game found lightning in a bottle in that it is a relaxing and familiar game that can still surprise us after 20 years. I recently started playing d2r again after not visiting since ladder season 1 and I have picked up where I left off. The game is infinitely repeatable. It will be remastered again. It is that good.
Dropping in to drop my like and do my MG duty. Also, you should show off some snippets of the stream fun like the races, cows scrambles, etc. I can’t imagine people not wanting to sub with notifs knowing that’s how much entertainment they’d get when they tune in live! Much love dude! Keep up your efforts
So glad I found you. Watching your older streams while I grind D2 myself is the perfect sidedish. As a person with high levels of social anxiety and chronic fatigue related to social interaction myself, I can level with you on a lot of your personal takes. I know it's hard AF, but please don't hate yourself for not posting a vid or streaming enough - we're just here for the good vibes whenever you feel like it. If your brain is doing the ol' "I gotta get on this cause it's my job now" then just remember you're trying to fit a social norm looking hat kind of thought onto a very oddly shaped streamer head. That was an analogy btw lmao. Take care of yourself and cheers for the vid!
I really enjoy your reactions in finding even just basic stuff, because you can trade it. In SP, we find so many dupes, we just dump it at some point. This is great hahaha
My best memories about this game were the day I got the ghost WF(Act 5 Worldstone) and a few weeks after that I got a ghost 6 socket Grandfather sword(cow run). Man, I was owning D and Baal at Hell Level.
damn seeing u farming baal for items, makes make realize, that iven been playing with d2jp a way too much und losing the actual point of the game. keep it up man
That's a lot of grinding! I'm looking into downloading D2 on ps4, as i played #1 and #3 but missed #2 back in the day, due to having kids/life. Looks like you had a great time getting some legendary loot.
What build are you running? Never seen FO+Bliz build and I'm very curious to try. I'm so sick of the regular bliz sorc and still lacking the -Lres to switch out of it.
ST is the best Pala shield. The ED version is nice for a pheonix. Melee builds and som aura builds like to use last wish with pheonix, Also goes great for a smiter, who then dont need to use exile or Draculs for lifetap. Then rather stack more leach from redemption and dmg. Some zealers like to use pheonix to.
At first when you went over the last 5 items you haven't found, I thought you were saying what the next 5 items were that you found in these runs. I was like "did this guy just breeze over finding tyreals might?" Lol
I watched your every d2 videos so far. Great content and i learned so much from these. I’ve started playing again since resurrected released but i know very less about trading. Can anyone explain me about trade? How to trade and how its done? Thanks.
I haven't played D2R in awhile but how are you able to clear throne room with sorc gear starting out. Also how were you even able to kill D Clone with what you got. Did they get nerf or something? Anyways grats on the find.
how do you know the value (or can find the value) and which items to pick up. I'm really bad at this and this pretty much keeps me away from playing this game..
I know you’ve switched more to live content, but very happy to see you still making these videos. Very much enjoyed it!
I don't have time to watch long livestreams, so these highlights are my jam.
On behalf of the UA-cam lurkers, I agree.

Pheonix ST is not the best smite shield. It's not even second best shield.

ED% doesn’t increase Smite damage.
@@Swalexbass ED% actually does affect smite damage. For example, fortitude increases smite damage.

I was on vacation last week and couldnt follow the streams. Glad to see the compilation vid. Thanks Schmuck!
I've been using your videos for bringing back D2-nostalgia for the D4 launch. Cheers! :)

Man was that a beautiful video. D2 will always be one of my favorite games of all time that I'll always keep coming back to. Nice drops!
Never seen someone kill something 1,000 times and get excited about finding something three times
As someone new to the franchise with Diablo 4, man this game looks way more fun. Maybe it's the fact that there are more uniques, but also I love the idea of farming a final dungeon/boss for the best loot and I'm not sure D4 has that yet.
I highly recommend trying out Project Diablo 2. Biggest d2 mod out there, currently on season 8, loads more content than d4 or d2r.
Every time a good item drops while enemies around his merc is thinking: Guess I'm dead again. 😀
Love the reactions!! Watching this journey was a BLAST. thanks my dood!!🎉😊

GGs Shmuck!
I rolled a perfect Mara's on my first Mephisto kill of the season. That and a 15ED Monarch got me enough in trade for an Enigma.
your enthusiasm is so contagious
Great send off for D2R before D4 launches. Hope you continue to make some D2R content!
Man even after 20 years I still haven't found my own Tals armor and this dude finds 5 in 1k runs. Jezus
Makes me want to play.
I played D2 for like 2 months and I found like 20 of them...
How is it I knew this guys celebratory voice before I had ever been on his channel before. Bro your a meme legend.
Holy shit that many Sorc torches is unreal dude.
That is a happy memory.

I feel like Lister listening to Rimmer recounting his war board games. But it is somehow hypnotizing listening to those numbers, runs and beaten odds.

I remember finding my first Stormlash on release with a 100% perfect eth roll, only to get rolled back, good times.
Yeah as it’s been said, I really can’t watch the big long streams, it’s cool you do them… but I’m glad you still make some of these condensed videos
"ugh veil of steeeel?" I love your reactions 😂
i now say "Um Rune!" in your voice no matter what drops for me, i cant stop
AHAHA DUDE YOU GET SO EXCITED WHEN SOMETHING GOOD DROPS AHAHA, LOVE IT!
My best memories about this game were the day I got the ghost WF(Act 5 Worldstone) and a few weeks after
that I got a ghost 6 socket Grandfather sword(cow run). Man, I was owning D and Baal at Hell Level.
I love the anticipation while waiting for the ID, but that manald part had me rolling :D
with the Rogan reference lol
I guess my "teaching" about the Tal's armor is coming up huge :v
all jokes aside these finds were so, SOOO sick!
Man, that really takes me back. Had no idea Diablo 2 Resurrected was even a thing. Thanks UA-cam.
Just watched your soj farming video last night, just got back to back manalds lol
Happiness made me subscribe. Infectious mate!
Awesome video sorry I have been missing the live streams
Dude your reactions are so wholesome !
Your face while id-ing the torches was hilarious
GG on the Steelrends. That plus the BK Colossus Blade are my only TC87s in D2.
Amazing how much joy such a mindless grind can bring. Well, at least you are having fun.
The amount of Patience en preserverence is astonishing.
Fill in your entire xp bar after reaching level 99 & receive the highest quality possible for every item in the game
I'm amazed you found a SoJ, I've only found 1 the entire time I played D2.
Gets a drop better than 95% of all drops i've ever had
Regular Schmuck: That's pretty mid
damn seeing u farming baal for items, makes make realize, that iven been playing with d2jp a way too much und losing the actual point of the game. keep it up man
Insane. I played from 2002-2003. Baal was very time consuming. I love 1.09 patch. 😂
Schmuck the EDITOR! LETS GO!
The excitement of loot drops in D2 is a stark difference to the mundane experience of D4 loot.
Great runs, keep up the good vibes my man ✌️
i love watching your reactions to loot!
ahhh so glad u still post grinding videos
That's a lot of grinding! I'm looking into downloading D2 on ps4, as i played #1 and #3 but missed #2 back in the day, due to having kids/life. Looks like you had a great time getting some legendary loot.
Dang dude, you missed the golden Era, but welcome to the party~ 😉
Good on you. Having kids/life is so much better.
@renz06660 My youngest just turned 18 so have a bit more time now🙃
ED pally shields add hidden smite damage. Back on d2 my jstod had ed lifers in it.
2:48 Ahahah 🤣this guy thought the color of the jewel meant it was cold 😂
You smile a lot. And you laugh a lot.
Good for you.
What build are you running? Never seen FO+Bliz build and I'm very curious to try. I'm so sick of the regular bliz sorc and still lacking the -Lres to switch out of it.
4:23 sweet jeeezzzz, that's a nice scope :)
love genuine emotions, great job Pal!
Nice one.
Nice one. Seen you do a few of these - whats the best boss/spot you've personally found to MF?
Altho i will never have great loot like this. It inspires me to keep the gring going
LOVED the Joe Rogan Experience Jamie quote HAHAHA
that sacred targe is used for Phoenix shields, eg. zealots or shield barb
What an epic fucking game inside and out.
Monks meditate to let go of their worries, we play d2 like a slot machine.
playing d2 brings so much more joy than d4 man, i dont even get thrilled cause unique drops are so scarced
Love this comparison, thanks!
58 hours in one sitting? Must have amazing posture and seating arrangement. My back is done after 3 hours
i love it how happy you are if u find something cool. I Like that
Schmucky grinding. Love it
Nice. I only find shakos lol. Took me quite a while. Then I got an ethereal one. Now I've found 5 since then.

what was your skill allocation like i see you're using forb and blizz
Omg it rains! How/where did you sell the gears or do the exchange?
This is like casino slots, but with heavily delayed payouts. With a much longer gameplay loop.
I just started playing again. What's your skill build and how do you deal with cold immune
Yeah the Echutas 3/20fire with 30 energy is worth tons and you gave it away lulz 🐐
silly question: what's special about +15ED monarch?

Caught most of these live, GG ;)
Gotta cash in on that streamer luck 🍀
“It’s all coming up schmuck!* 😂😂😂
the 4s high damage rune is i think valueable because it impacts smite, which is one of the best boss killing moves in the game

Hello bro . tell me only, how did Diablo came there 03:07 .
how do you know the value (or can find the value) and which items to pick up. I'm really bad at this and this pretty much keeps me away from playing this game..
