I am in search of the most annoying side areas/ dungeons in d2.

Needing 1 per act. I'd be happy to receive some gruesome ideas

Going to run these areas (1 per act) repeatedly in my next WT (soon to be announced). If I choose your area, you will get 5 fg each unique I will find there

By side areas, guessing you mean non-quest related ones?

The largest fake tomb in Canyon of the Magi, perhaps? It's a huge map, filled with annoying undead, and of course is home to Ancient Kaa the Soulless

When I got bored on my sorc, many a year ago, I used to go looking for him to see what was the most annoying combo of mods he'd spawn with

That's a nice idea for a WT, I like it!

Jails- the only side area in act 1?
Dry hills - the stony tomb (or whatever its called)
Black marsh (souls)
2nd waypoint - normally a pain in the ass to find wp
Glacial trial <--- dont ever remember going inside drifter cavern to remember what's in there.

fuck, that's a brilliant idea. Kaa has these nice light enchants. Rip'd there on WTs already...


yeah the cavern might suck a bit. but it's not that hard...
I thought of a5 pits with those fucking frenzy lords. Oh and btw, I am not doing Nilhathak. 500 runs Nilha on HC is just suicide

Be creative, I need more

The Hole
Stony Tomb
Swampy Pit
City of the Damned
Abaddon

A1 Blood raven runs
A2 Horadric cube runs
A3 Sewers runs
A4 River of flame runs (no chaos)
A5 Icy Cellar runs

a1 - jail
a2 - fake tomb
a3 - ruined fane / disused relinquary (sides of kurast causeway just before trav) very dangerous
a4 - city of damned? there's not really side dungeons in a4.
a5 - icy cellar

that dungeon in flayer jungle which almost always spawn next to wp it's always connected via brigde, i remember playing sc while i was a kid on hell difficulty and it was a huuuge pain. It's called swampy pit 3 lvl lot of souls and dolls :>

a2 maggot lair how is this not the worst!?!?!?! without tele ofc

Act 1:
Black Marsh - The Hole: Annoying because you could be running the Pits instead, but not entirely useless like Caves in Cold Plains

Act 2:
Rocky Waste - Stony Tomb: it isn't exactly "annoying" in a traditional way, more just that if youre new to the game, you totally think it's important and run it. Also, there is no waypoint for it, and you have to walk from Town.

Act 3:
Flayer Jungle - Swampy Pit: Nothing but mazes

Act 4:
Nothing I can think of here, no caves or anything really unrelated to a quest except for farming the entire map of Outer Steps

Act 5:
Ancients Way - Icy Pit: Just hard and high death chance getting here every time
