Hello everyone,
I would like to create a new type of duel: the "pvm dueling". The goal is to promote the use of builds that are powerful, but accessible to everyone.
The goal is also to facilitate the pvm: with this new type of duel, there would be no more need to have characters dedicated to the pvp.
The goal is also to
encourage the pvm by the players, so that the game economy remains powerful despite the measures taken by Blizzard.
Here are some rules that I have set:
- no mercenary
- no charms except torch and annihilus
- no prepatched items, no glitched items (zod bugged, bug tal, and more), no hybrid items
- no rare ethereal items (these builds must be accessible to the greatest number)
- no build with a single target (charger paladin, berserker barbarian, and more) because they are very inefficient in pvm
- no weapon that breaks quickly like berserker axe, except if the runeword makes it indestructible (like botd zerker)
- no faith on bowazon because it seems to me that in pvm, faith is more appropriate to the mercenary (plus, faith would be too powerful)
- no infinity for the same reasons
- no auradins because it makes the servers lag in pvm
Here are some examples of builds:

I would like to know who would be interested in doing this kind of dueling. I play on the server USeast. Any help to promote this type of duel is welcome.
I think that the measures taken by Blizzard require that we adapt a little our way of playing. Diablo II is a good game, and it would be sad if people stop playing it because people are too lazy to do pvm.
Thanks for reading.
