You guys should check out some of the 64 pages of content here and perhaps go about things another way?

Most of us have played d2 over a decade and none of us have found anything close to a real trophy, on b.net they're all imports as well, the real thing is more rare than any of you are considering. Single player has to be toned down to something you might find with a thousand hours play time.

I totally agree with what you all think a trophy is, and it would be great if we could make this a room for that. But what you're all asking for is impossible.


I heave read the 64 pages of this thread. All I see is every few months some kid has a hissy fit about how people don't respect their items.

People here are plenty liberal with their definition of trophy. I 100% guarantee that every item posted in this thread would be slammed in the actual trophy room subforum.

Just because the standards should be lower than bnet doesn't mean there are no standards. We aren't looking for perfect items, but throw a 30ias 350 fools eth rep weapon and that is enough for 95% of the people here.

If you don't have something that even sniffs a bnet trophy room than just don't bother posting, or don't be surprised when people disagree.. it's that simple

Although I was being sarcastic in my suggestion it is true, it would be extremely easy to just have a list of what we class as a trophy here if it keeps going as one thread like this - the list of trophy's is extremely limited and since I think what has been described as negative criticism is not really an accurate description it might be better to have guidelines for some people.

As someone has suggested, best way would to have a sub topic for items that made the cut.

Maybe the guideline should be, as you suggest, read the 64 pages here. It should give anyone an idea of the kind of response they should expect from the quality of item they want to post.

That would be a shame, because some people might love to see the item they would decide not to post...

OMG... Soory for this post, but...

I am gonna make some perfect items via single player editor and post them here so the audiance may stop crying about the fact that normal people normally do not play 24/7 at home just to find something which can be considered as a bnet-standard trophy.

As it has been pointed out several times so far: 90% of todays bnet trophies are brute-forced stuff, made by people who know how to rollback. As for the remaining 10%, most of those have been found by bots, and maybe 1 out of 1000 is real trophy. And these numbers are coming from a way much larger player base than SP community.

After all what is written above, do you really think that one tiny community will bring you bnet-standard trophies?

You should be happy because some of us are still playing this game, posting here such great stories and stuff. But instead of being happy, you just ruining the fun with this endless debate.

Why do we need to care about this anyway? For me it is more important to see that someone still enjoys playing D2 and cares to share this feeling with us. If mods close this topic, fine. I can live without it. If TR remains with some more straight rules, fine for me as well. But this childish behavior is not cool at all.

Ditto.

Also as I have done probably 7-8 Hardcore walkthroughs that got into Hell, and also Leveled 4 Softcore characters in single player and fully equipped them to clear /p8 Hell, I still have only found one item that I would post here as a real trophy. Thats a ton of time played and still only 1 worthwhile rare to post and its still not even that great.

Wow man that ring is sexy for a zon! Maybe a barb too. Very nice!!

Thanks for talking about your play time to find ratio, I've been running pindle for years, the reason I choose pindle is because running him gives the highest amount of rares in the game. I literally am a rare trophy hunter, if you are aware of any other way to get a higher density of rares than 25 second pindle runs with 600mf please let me know.

With my years of religiously running pindle, among my general other MFing as far as the highest rarity items I've found coa, gryphons, grandfather and loads more, and as for rares the only real good ones I've found are the tele amu, my 430ed eth pb and that belt which I came across a couple of months ago. I also found a 260ed fools bow with 20% ias once upon a time, pretty nice when you don't have either windforce or ladder rune words installed. I do want to say though, that bow, the gryphons and the coa were lost as I had to go back to a previous save at one point. But no other trophys were lost and it doesn't change the fact I found them and put in that amount of time. I've never found a stat ring that good, nice find.

Here's some nice rings I've found over the years...







Iso a second thread for the best of the best of what we post :)
