I have a pvp build for every HLD class and now aiming to get into the LLD scene. I never LLD'd in legacy D2, so any advice at all would be great.

I do have a few specific questions:
1. In the stickied guides, why do none of the guides ever mention teleport staffs or amus? Was teleport BM in legacy D2?
2. What is the most beginner friendly build to start out with? I'm planning on getting into Lvl 30 duels as that seems to be the most popular. I'm not looking to invest a ton of fg into something I may or may not enjoy (~3,000 to start)
3. Where can I find updated builds? The stickied guides are all ancient.

:thumbsup:

1) Guides are generally outdated and teleport was banned in some rulesets. Teleport amus are not lld
2) Caster classes are generally considered beginner friendly as the gear can be easier to come by

I think the cheapest entry build is cs zon
You can use plain 15life inventory (very cheap) / frw scs
Peasant crown until you get a 1ama 30frw/20fcr +adds circ
Peace / vmagi chest
2jav 10ias gloves
Goldwrap for fastest ias bp / string of ears vs phys
Sanders boots
2x sojs
1 amazon life/mana amulet
Javs would prob be the most expensive and they're still cheap, 4jav/30ias maiden
20fcr tele staff is optional but enables the build to do better vs some matchups

Its not worth gettign into. Community to toxic and hoards 90% of gear. You will spend months waiting for bots to find upgrades as everything slowly trickles down and what ends up on jsp is 4-5x overpriced.
.

Oh wait, legacy?

Idk that scene well anymore.

Strange you say that because I've always found LLD players to be very friendly and accommodating.

Gear can be tricky to find, and the top items do go for a premium, but thats no different to HLD. A lot of useable characters can be built pretty cheap. I just got back into it myself recently and its moreso my skill level and rustiness that makes the difference rather than my entry level gear. Still, Im having fun all the same.
