v1.09 was out for 2 years. p1 takes any kind of challenge away from the game. he could even play on p5.



Somehow i though it was .08 lol maybe because melatonia post

Disregard my last post, .09 was the best, althought i only played classic during that era

1.09 was extreme fun, but also very easy to beat. only runes were kinda "rare", the mobs were not hitting nowhere near as hard as 1.10 +
and the ga bug made bowas overpowered as hell (1.09b only)
I only did one wt on P8 1.08, it's in my profile. that was so painful lol

1.09 was my favourite patch as well! Bowas were so OP back then with piercing GA. I pretty much only played MF barb/Cows zon/Pvp Orb sorc in 09. But bowas with piercing GA always rocked me even with 75% dr and all the FBR in the world :cry:

You guys right, it is easy, but running p8 with 35 dmg now at nightmare is not too effective :rofl:

And I change the p , depends how it goes.

As I said the point of this walk is not challenges :)
Only exploring, and streaming for people who want to see it,
I’m not trying to prove anything or beat challenges, just for fun guys...


By the way, ga “bug” is not a bug, it works like it should,
And it’s only op if you use that bow with 100% pierce
I am atm at 65% pierce and it does not work that well.

I don't see the point in exploring a non-open-world game, but to each their own! D2 players are snobs, myself included half the time. So you just have to get used to people sticking their noses up at you if you don't conform to their meta. I always laugh when I see people judging others for using p3 or something, saying that p8 is the only way to go... yet they only use things like blizz sorc or javazon or zerk barb etc, the strongest builds. It's kind of hypocritical because saying p8 is the only way, but then only playing the strongest builds... it's the same thing as playing a much weaker build on a lower players setting. They just want to feel superior I think.

bug or not it has been patched quickly for a good reason :p

there are no good rws for 1.09, you'll have to gamble and gamble again before a decent unique comes. iirc upgrading rares and uniques are 1.10+ only

It's a bug because GA pierces more than once. It was only supposed to piece one time, but actually it can go through a monster many times (infinitely until it dies if you have 100% pierce). So yes, it is bugged in 1.09 but GA is mostly just great vs bosses and in pvp anyways.

For certain, amazon is the strongest character in 1.09. Barb and sorc are good too, but Zons were easily top...

True. 100% bugged and OP.
Its so OP that with 100% you can just ignore multishot and send 1 ga to every mob on your screen and move on..

I don't remember it like that, I don't think the GA would move on to a new target once the current target died. The way I remember it is that you send a GA flying at a monster (100% pierce) and it will hit them, go through them, and then just continue to rock back and forth between them, damaging each time until the monster died (and being absorbed into the monster upon death). Totally OP for bosses and pvp. But I think in a big mob LF/Multi was still better.

Yes, I meant 1 ga for every mob (well I wrote that :p)
Though, it does not damage the mob until it dies, it can pierce Id say 4-5 times for each arrow, you dont see it when you're ga bombing a mob ofc
Yes MS would still be better vs big packs, my point was just to clarify how OP ga bug with full pierce was.
