Great. PvP should be popping

If you don't bot, just accept that after week 1 of ladder, prices will plummet, and all the top tier items will be in competition with eachother.

Play early, profit and build a full character, or accept that bots will make things a lot more affordable for the 40+ hour work week, dad bod neck beards out there.


I know.. nothing we can even do about it

I tend to focus on things bots can’t do.. services, Ubers, crafting.. but Sunders was nice and fresh. It is what it is

Its a different game from PvM entirely. First time attempting PvP, I bought a extremely well built ghost sin. Had no idea of the mechanics, sucked against characters I read were easy wins. I was legitimately pissed off and didn't touch the character for a week.

Met a random online. Said he pvp'd on jsp and would show me some tricks. Ended up meeting a whole community of sweaty PvP players. Got shat on repeatedly, learned a lot, and made some good buddies along the way. Still jam out a decade later with the same guys.

Basically if you can handle the learning curve (much easier on D2r) you will spend the following ladders decking out characters to smash pubs and team duel with buddies.

Dang.. that’s what’s up :)

And I’ve been working on a WW Venom Sin… crazy coincidence :ph34r:

A great comment. Definitely look into it soon

1st pvp char being a ghost sin must have been ass. ive played everything GM and BM and honestly its on of the hardest. top gear was so expensive on ogd2 for a ghost too. probably same for d2r

Ha yah, I had made the pick based off a long D2 break, and a Sin WWing looked awesome. That was new since the last time I had played. Found out after I met the jsp PvP crew that yes, ghost sin was not an easy first choice. Once I learned basic mechanics - locking, order of MB/Trap/WW it just came down to reps in the Moor. Had a lot of paitent partners in team duels...and guys who didn't mind 20-0ing someone before saying nahhhh back to pubs you go!
