so this is one of the most hotly debated rule probably.
There is a spectrum here and I think most people would call the middle ground true, but who knows. Here is the spectrum:
Ban hard stat prayer and force Tearhaunch for Vigor + Insight and/or Honor for medi -------- Max 15 rep life + max 1 pt prayer -------- Prayer + 30 rep life is fine.
I personally am far left here but I think a majority vote would go to the middle!!

I’ve never seen the reason to not allow mana pots.

All it ever did was hurt players who couldn’t afford better gear so basically people with 100’s of more mana than you would be an advantage if you ran out before them.

Early lld I always used mana pots cause it made no sense I had to be crippled since you could afford the pricey items and I couldn’t.

Literally the only thing it should have been banned on is es sorcs.

I obviously don’t need them anymore as I use characters that don’t have mana issues now but in the beginning I always thought it was the dumbest rule

I'm going to play it a lot but pretty much all pvm for a long while. Got a couple irl buddies who are getting it and we are going to just play solo and jsp-less basically until our chars are maxed out and then I'll probably start mfing nm spots for lld stuff after that.

Lld began as a subset of bad duelers that wanted to keep others by making it ptp... essentially the beginning of lld was basically like melee... the goal ultimately was to limit the pool of players by enforcing random rules that impact the cost of playing lld. It’s why there are rules like no dupes/ 08’s/mana pots. Either you could afford to play gm rules are you can’t.... lld, especially on east was like an old boys club. Elitist.... it’s why you still see ppl saying “dupe” while using rolled cfood items.

doing it right :)
ive been browsing other social medias regarding d2r, and jesus christ are people hating on d2jsp! from how i understand it, it used to be bot website, but eventually it got remade into what we have today. i always saw it as a trade forum but now i understand the animosity: people simply see it as a pay-to-win website where fg hoarders get the first pick of jah/ber on each ladder restart.

I say bring on the mana pots as long as not on es sorc lol 2 of my main chars would benefit greatly, where is the ballot box

Most old players are used to no mana pots tbh, only new players have to adjust to it, but it would allow ppl to use waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay cheaper inv’s
