"balanced" :rofl:

why did the community have to make rules for it then?

Hdin, necro and dudu were miles above anything else. Literally 3 viable builds (okay mby perfectly geared bowazons as well).
After community made rules to cap sorb/max res sosos and trapsins became viable

rest were mostly just niche builds V/Ts, ghosts, bvcs and what not
not to mention 99% of builds revolved around enigma and the few that didnt, used bugged mechanics like desynch+wsg

D2 pvp was awesome but it was far from balanced

e/ fuck now i want to play d2 again


lmao. first of all desync was kind of part of the game in pvp. no1 really thought it was a "bug". if you could desync good, you were a good pvper and outskilled your opponent. most of the time killing them. desync will never be fixed because its part of the core network infrastructure of d2's backend server

second, i find it fucking hilarious how almost 2 decades later there are tons of pvp games readily available, and still tons of public pk rooms on the realms today. and for diablo 3, there is nothing but a brawler room (with ZERO PLAYERS). but you want to continue to cry how "unbalanced" d2's pvp is, when it still shines even today and still has an active community within it.

and third, you dying to a specific build is irrelevant to whether or not that class was op or not. that's you being outplayed. unless it was someone hacking

and then

so d2 pvp was so AWESOME and you want to play it again!! but it was FARRRR from balanced! Well, it this context, it's sure as fuck a lot more balanced than Diablo 3. go fiddle around with your $15 necromancer DLC. make sure you tell me how much fun you had with ZERO economy and ZERO trading and ZERO pvp.

d2 pvp was balanced?

I guess that's why community had to agree on a "GM" way to play it, banning specific items/builds considered BM to make it "balanced".

the COMMUNITY made d2 pvp, blizzard didn't.

that's what I'm saying when I say d2 pvp was shit, it was shit, community made it enjoyable.

u're searching for a pvp game? we're in 2k17, theres esport games for that.

you wanna play some mob bashing? play PoE, it's awesome.

even if the community helped D2 pvp... they couldn't have done it if d2 pvp was shit. take d3 for example... aint no community helping that shitter.

People saying D2 was unbalanced because the community made rules for it for class v class is like saying the UFC is unbalanced because they have weight classes. Just because classes have counters doesn't mean the game was unbalanced. And equally skilled players could win on anything against anything.

Like ppl said if you want PvP, search somewhere else. PvM and endgame are both great and fun.
