EXP: diablo2.diablo...
The Diablo 2 Necromancer Guided Playthrough begins! If you're looking for help in building a bonemancer (or any) necromancer through hell, these are the videos for you. In Part 1 we run through Normal difficulty of Diablo and get to level 25 so we can move onto Nightmare without any experience difficulties.
You gonna let Twitch outsubscribe you guys like that?
I can't sub twice, my guy. I would if I could though.
Yes :)
I could unsub from Twitch, but then I couldn't watch you anymore during December :(
No way! I've subscribed about 100 times now just to show those Twitchers how it's done.
(I had to unsubscribe in between each time, does anyone know if this affects anything?)
Ah fresh meat!
14:20 Levels 2-17: +Teeth, +Vitality is basically the early game strategy, while at some point getting 25 Strength for 12 potion belt
14:23 Hang onto chipped gems. Use them to re-roll wands later. Also, keep an eye out for +Teeth wands in town
19:39 Teeth mechanics. Mouse cursor closeness to character determines spread. Teeth does not shotgun; only one teeth hit per enemy (1 mob cannot be hit by more than 1 teeth)
33:32 Optional: Clay Golem. Corpse Explosion at 15 mana is not worth it this early on. Or just continue with Teeth
36:29 Focus on boss groups (500% XP) and Champions (300% XP)
37:56 Countess farm: only need Tal Eth for Level 17 Stealth
43:31 Level 9: +Teeth, +Strength to start towards 25 Strength for 12 potion belt
45:06 Tir is also good for mana per kill, or to make Level 13 Nadir helm (Ned Tir) for Cloak of Shadow charges
55:14 Chat QA: Rhyme or Wall of the Eyeless for Sorceresses?
56:23 Good thing to Imbue: 16 potion belts
59:34 Level 12: Alternative skills to start taking: Clay Golem, Amp Damage & Iron Maiden. Or just go +Teeth for more raw damage
1:05:30 Level 13: +Teeth, +Vitality
1:13:44 Starting Act 2. Tir Tir helm for 4 mana after each kill
1:19:28 Level 14: Deviating away from Teeth. +Clay Golem and working towards Amp Damage and Iron Maiden in the next levels
1:22:40 Level 15: +Amp Damage, +Vitality
1:28:29 Maggot Lair Levels 1-2: Look at direction of the exit from entrance room. Run towards the right (clockwise) of this direction. Unclear: Level 3 is right, right, straight?
1:29:55 Teeth and Bone Spear deal magical damage. Corpse Explosion is physical and fire damage
1:32:13 Level 16 +Iron Maiden. Iron Maiden-Clay Golem combo ready to use. Back to putting skill points into Teeth. Note: Strength got upgraded from 25 to 30 at some point earlier
1:34:48 Oh, he went 30 Strength earlier to be able to wear his Set chain boots from Andariel
1:39:18 At Level 16 in Arcane Sanctuary, you’ll start to feel Teeth damage fall short a bit, even with +3 Teeth gear
1:40:11 Level 17: +Teeth, Make Stealth (Tal Eth)
1:41:53 Max sell values explained. Normal: +$5000 per Act, Nightmare: $30,000 all Acts, Hell: $35,000 all Acts
1:50:27 Tal Rasha tombs explained
1:52:01 Level 18: +Teeth
2:13:12 Levels/Acts/XP charts
2:40:46 Respec (Note: he respecs again in the Nightmare playthrough video… maybe plan ahead and follow that instead to save a respec. In the Nightmare video, look for the timestamp where someone notes the creation of Level 35 White bone wand (Dol Io)
You saint

The best !

Nice!!
I just ADORE the feeling when you start D2 fresh; fighting minions, exploring around, being feeble but having a great potential at the same time.
In Diablo 1, it's the opposite. Until level 9 or so, you are basically one step away from being instakilled :D Then you start to gain traction... until you reach Hell/Hell, and get your ass handed to you, if you aren't optimized.
@@VortechBand Atmosphere in Diablo 1 is the Ultimate King - you have to watch your every step. Diablo 2 is an amazing Diablo experience too but more relaxed in my opinion. Both games are Legends.
Diablo 2 is like life only its much harder to respec.
This is probably why I have such a hard time beating the game....I always make a new character
This is an amazing series of d2 content. High quality, high detail from a pro d2 player.
lol
A pro soy boy
dude i love these. It's awesome seeing your takes on how to level all of the different characters.
Because of you I started playing again and followed your guides while play along. Exactly what you said. Thank you!
Just one wish: could you slow down when putting in skills? Sometimes I need to skip back quite often to get it.
Again, awesome content and wise knowledge shared.
Learning about how to change the teeth spread blew my mind!
Totally! Playing d2 already 14 years and didn’t knew that
timestamp?
Wait what!?
This a troll?
End of Acts:
Act 1: 1:10:27 (ish)
Act 2: 1:55:36 (ish)
Act 3: 2:44:35 (ish)
Act 4: 3:12:00 (ish)
Act 5: 3:37:18 (ish)
After that you get the Cow Level that doesn't exist, like the Sub Only December. Posting this to help me and others who want to play along :)
Every community that has lasted this long needs someone like you. I was a kid who played diablo casually with friends and I just wanna play a solo playthrough but every guide just tells me how to use my max points. You not only are an energetic awesome dude, but you know that you are helping build the community rather than alienate. I LOVE IT!
mr lama as much as i enjoy these series im not sure what im gonna do in December as i cant afford to sub! i enjoy these so much that i am going to have to resort to petty theft to be able to get the sub money.
@@Lukasaske it's okay guys hes new to twitch
I miss the days when you could have 20 melee skellies on screen as well as your other minions. My big issue with summoner necro though is all the tight corridors like the maggot lair and what not.
can you not anymore?
@@Golden2Talon No. They nerfed that back in D2's hayday because back when everyone had potato PCs, having that many minions on screen would crash a lot of people games or just lag the hell out of multiplayer sessions.
@@SomethingScotty I wouldn't call it a nerf though. My first character back when D2 came out was a summoner, and sure, you'd get one skeleton per point, but by act 3 all 20 would collapse under a stiff breeze. I much prefer the fewer, non-useless skellies we have now.
I wish we had our now more useful skellies.....and could summon like 3 skeleton archers!!!! They would be a GREAT addition :)
Peace and Love from Atlanta
Watching these actually led to me playing Diablo + Hellfire. I'm honestly surprised how well it holds up and will definitely be moving on to Diablo II after.
"great! but like, how do i get to there?" is the EXACT problem i have w/ character build guides, so the moment you addressed that i knew that this was FINALLY what i was looking for. THANK YOU
Holy heck! Thanks for the tip about saving gold-capped items to sell later. Wow. I can't believe I'm still learning useful things about the game after all these years
Thanks for all the content Llama. Always fun to come back and re-watch these.
The donation at 18:24 almost made me spit out my drink.
Havent finished the paladin series yet and was wondering if that pounding theme ever stops...your intro (bone some dudes) killed it :D
and dont worry about the title. It s an informative video so a "formal" title is absolutly fine. imo
it's so nice that you upload this kind of video in your UA-cam channel. Currently making bone necro.
Hey Llama, just wanted to say I'm loving the UA-cam videos lately! Between the playthroughs and the D4 stuff it seems like you're putting a lot of time and thought into it. Keep boning and pounding
I was disappointed that you didnt go the poison route, but like you said it's more practical to go bones early on. Was still a great watch. The sub train was nuts, and the innuendo has stepped up in hilarity and risqueness. I love it.
When chat asked if the angle of the "bone spear" matters 🤣 That joke went right over mr lamas head hahaaha
I'm watching this, I'm around act 2, maggot lair, and this is one of the best speedrunning maps that could happen! In many parts and both acts up to now!
So glad that so many good people donated so many subs for people that want to watch during Sub Only December. Llama has such a nice community :)
Hey MrLlama, I am currently working on a mod for D2 I think you will really enjoy! The goal is to add way more tactical depth to the game, for example by making positioning even more important. This in done by giving players a flanking bonus, making attacks from the side or rear do more damage. Your necro, for example, could greatly benefit from this, giving your bone spear increased penetration from behind, allowing you to really pound dudes with maximum efficiency! I think you will love it!
I love the original sound of the corpse explosion in D2. If they are going to bring back the Necromancer in D4, maybe later in the expansion whatever, it'll be so nostalgic to have that sound effect back.
I’ve been looking for content like this for 8 years xD I love you man
Love the guides dude! Major D2 noob here, played on and off a lot but never able to put a lot of time in. The information you put out is great and really helps with getting a grip on what to do and get the ball rolling! Keep up the great work!
I have been actively watching guides walkthrough play vids. Learning alot. I hope D2R and D4 preserves the same excitement of this classic gameplay. 🍻💯🙏😇🙌👊🔥
Really enjoying this series! Love the early game choices and respecs. Can't wait for all the characters. Keep it up!
gotta admit, your chat is pretty funny, and these vids really make me want to get back into d2; was my jam almost 20 years ago
Soooo long waiting for this, D2 best game EVER! :)
Ty MrLlama, keep up the good work! Cheers! :D
bone wand 1:57:00
Respec @ 2:40:50
"no more pounding jokes, twitch promised"
incoming "boning" jokes.
I love these playthroughs!!!!!! Keep up the good work Llama!!!
I’m rewatching this now as I level up a bone necro and it’s very funny and sad to see how your predictions about D4 ended up happening. Poor itemizations and having the season pass. D2 remains my favorite game. Thanks for all your guides you’ve made. I don’t fear Duriel anymore because of your tip.
About the number of viewers with notbell enabled, I would say it is not about the quality of the channel, but about the average profile of the viewers. Gamers, especially who play games so complex as Diablo, don't need to be reminded of what they want to know. I myself have been watching your channel, and I purposely search for what I want to watch in it. It is a matter of being really interested, in which case, if I'm right, it means that your channel is so good that it doesn't need to remind its viewers to watch it ;)
I've been waiting for this.
Haven't played this game in like a year and still love your vids. Keep it up!
Awesome. This really helped in D2R. No wonder you are one of the best D2 guys
Love these playthroughs, can't wait for Barb so I can watch you bash some dudes.
I actually played along this time, and i was behind with the claw viper amulet, he already in arcane sanctuary BUT i remembered he always 4ways, so i kept at it and actually went ahead.
sad i missed the stream, could have gotten a nice sub!
"we're not whacking dudes with our wand; we're teething them"
The hell did I stumble upon
Great video, MrLlama, I love Necro and I am listening to your playthroughs when working. It is strange, but your voice has somehow calming qualities :-)
Keep it up MrLlamaSC! Single player offline D2 is a masterpiece.
I've yet to play any Necro. But when I do, Ill use this as my guide!
Thank you for your help lama. Recently expansioned my diablo 2 during lockdown (forgot about that disc). You've helped so much w no Wi-Fi and grinding diablo. Keep up the great content. Cheers
Hey Mr.lamma, love listening to your playthroughs, and absolutely are your chat, so keep up the both of yall
Who else played back in the day, soloing through with characters trying to figure out the good builds? My friends and I stalled out in Nightmare and Act1 Hell so much. Grinding through and killing every trash mob, it would take 10s of hours per character. We were trying to cube up runes for high runes, had no idea about drop rates, just living unaware of the depth of the game. Then we started playing online for real and slowly started learned and looking things up. But still, coming from a world of Mario and Donkey Kong Country we didn't have the metal framework to "get good" at this kind of game. It wasn't really until college when I came across the Smash Bros community that "getting good" and learning games started to click. Then fast forward to the speed running era and llamas videos it felt like Dibalo 2 suddenly had its secrets unlocked and became a while new game. I lost my install on a PC upgrade a few years ago and I'm now coming back to get my solo account built up with pluggy. It feels like magic!
Just got to the bit talking about youtube notifications and realised I hadnt done it... thanks for the reminder llama!!!
The algorithm got me here. The boning innuendos made me stay.
2024 and i just discovered this video. thankyou for this
3:14:30 potions are double the price because the town is 'under siege' and supplies are low. once you do first quest you break the siege.
I love every one of your speedrun/play guide videos! Keep it up!
Gonna miss this guy in december.
Llama new Let's Play Diablo 2 video ? - instant Like !!! Necro my fav character all time !
Thank you so much for this guides! Its an awesome way to come back to D2
I subscribed just so I'm not left out from sub only December. Anxious to see how fun Dom only June is!
Just wanna point out that the spetum (a type of spear) you sold at 2:45:25 ish was called "imp pale"
Lol that's awesome
Loving these playthroughs MrLama!! Keep them coming :)
Love the little optimization mechanics, like how to aim teeth. That's such an interesting way to add layers to your game, even if it's unintentional.
Also the c in scepter is silent. Great vid as usual!
Waitinf on all these guided playthroughs to blow up when D2R lands. Gonna be SICK.
Dude you are doing more for The Diablo Franchise than Blizzard as a whole !!!!!!
Just trying my best :D
They knew what they were doing. I feel they significant changes here and there. It make sense if you look at it that way.
I remember the days when corpse explosion had some real AoE :O
wut, it still does
Awesome content as always! Thanks for all the awesome tips!
You definitely got a good gig MrLlamaSC, your Twitch folks love you and us UA-camrs do also.
Hitting that notification bell so I can be in the 2% Also thank-you for the guide on how to bone, just finished the paladin one, can;t wait to give this a try.
Hey Llama love the videos. Wanted to leave a message for anyone else who might run into this issue following this guide if you run into trouble finding a normal bone spear bone wand. I ended up having to do a little extra farming and hit the start of Act 3 at level 20. Because I was level 20 I could not do the shopping in Act 3, because once you are level 20 in Act 3 vendors sell gear at ilvl 25, which no longer can be normal rarity. Instead I did my shopping at Drognan in Act 2, who can sell normal bone wands with bone spear. To make the shopping easier, I took my singeplayer game into LAN mode to reset my maps to one where the exit to Lut Gholein was next to Drognan so that it is much quicker getting in and out of town to reset the vendor.
Thanks for creating and posting this on UA-cam. I just wanted to let you know that I finally beat the game all the way through! First time I've ever done that after owning the game for 20 years. Love the content!
Also, totally enjoying the UA-cam voice. Keep it up!
Got my first ever gifted sub in your chat
Just a warning. If you want to do the strategy at 1:58:00 you need to be under level 20 by act 3, or you will not be able to find white/grey wands in the shop
Nah, I never enable that notification option for anyone, MrLlama. I appreciate the content a lot and watch frequently, though :)
Always nice to see llama blowing some dudes away with his great head skills, despite the teeth.
I love Llamas UA-cam Voice!
Llama got me hyped to play D2 over the holidays
From Top left to Bottom Right the tombs are Circle, Smiley, Square, Star, Double V, Triangle, Circle with Smiley..... the correct symbol is ALWAYS is the missing floating symbol by summoner.
Mr. Llama always: *says something ridiculously silly* "No, no, no... we aren't going to start it like that..."
Also to himself "Heh. We're totally starting like that."
Another amazing piece of entertainment and really great information as well as great awesome positive vibes. I enjoy this kind of content alot. Keep up the great deamon slaying. ❤
Been playing along side you man and I realized how bad I am at the game. Great job dude
haha it's a very hard game to be honest
Doesn't help I'm trying to do it on Hardcore. Only my third reset. Going slow. Won't move on till players 8 is easy. Level 24 in Act 2.
Some Revives just meander around and don’t actively fight the way I think they should. I no longer use Revives. They increased the skel mages damages and I said yahooo. You need to put a few points in summon resist. A merc with BOTD and you are kicking!!! Decrpify is a nifty curse. I like to use Terror to make monsters run away from the portal in Throne of Destruction. Especially those Burning Souls. Those get on everyone’s nerves. Hard to believe I was playing this game 20 years ago. I still have fun playing this game.
Loose track of time and all of a sudden it is 5 o’clock in the morning. What good memories. I don’t take them for granted anymore.
Blood Raven was freaking out because girls don't like it when you use too much teeth. Waka waka.
Some are into that kind of thing.
I love these series, please do one for all chars!
Just joined the 2% XD sorry Llama for the delay. Thanks for the reminder
I first played D2 it was all solo/offline play. I got around mid act 3 nightmare when i quit playing that character. Once i got online D2 was a whole new game i fell in love with.
Hell yeah Lama. I was looking forward to this one
Didn't know that about how teeth works with cursor placement. Nice. I'm currently at hell act 4 doing Mephisto runs with my Javazon. I got lucky with a really nice durance map, nice and close to the waypoint to get to level 3. Now hoping for some good drops; I got a wizspike, but not useful for my character. Started doing planks or curls after some runs to get some exercise in too. Liked that system yesterday and hope to keep it going. Weather is good enough to get out and skate today, so think I'll do that; save the D2 runs for later or snow days. Will probably have far too many of those coming up. Also got a level 2 tele charge ammy; was thinking about using wizspike and the amulet for teleporting, but don't want to take the hit to my resistances (all res 13 22 percent mf ammy, was stoked on that drop).
I've found more often than not the summoner is the direction you found him in the arcane sanctuary. Its the path with the multi level walkways.
I'm working while you stream so all I can do is support you on UA-cam Llama you da goat! Or da Llama! Lolol
i'm here bc i found my original battlechest game disc and wanted to do a retro playthrough. still a great game.
Hi @mrllammasc,
My small ideas for name of the series:
GuideThrough or ShowThrough
2 socket wand, 2 socket shield.. We got screwed man! :D
I was gonna say "Ok I'll ring the bell cuz I love you man" but I already had lol
I just put all my points into Strenght for the respec, was a good run :)
Running ancient tunnels while watching and got a perfect maras! Llama luck!
Corpse explosion is what makes arcane sanctuary and maggot lair doable as a summon Necro. It’s so overpowered to pop CE once or twice and watch everything melt and let the skeles finish everything off.
totally agree about PoE, I have over 600 hours and as much as I love the game, it really does take essentially having a college degree in PoE in order to play it at a competent level, atleast in the endgame/mapping (which is arguably where the game starts). But ya if you're just gonna play through the acts and do basic white maps then you can get by without engaging in many of the systems, following any sort of build, or really understanding what all the different stats and multipliers ACTUALLY do.. but if you're planning to play past that point and play leagues and stuff it gets very complicated very quickly, and that's not even bringing crafting into the mix, that's a whole other kettle of fish. The other major "quirk" the game has is how unforgiving it is for people who want to experiment and find their own builds and play styles, it could very much benefit from 1 or 2 free COMPLETE respecs given to you over the course of the acts (maybe one when you face Kitava for the first time and another after reaching maps) along with the handful of respec points they give you over the course of the acts via books of skill/regret, anyone trying to tell you it isn't a complicated/complex game is just being intellectually dishonest or not looking at the game objectively.
Such a chaotic intro 🤤
lol,, haha, I love you Llama, you are the best!!!! great intro, great guide. pure awesomeness !!
It’s as if D2 is his stuffed animal. Virtually of course
You had me at 'Bone some dudes'.
Thank you so much for these videos. I learned more from this 1 video that from playing like a noob for 15 years. Will definitely sub on twitch prime next month 😁 p.s. love homoerotic puns from chat 😂
realizing some skills in PoE are the same from D2. Teeth is basically the same thing as Soulrend in PoE.
