thats not how it works.
You only get a token of absolution by cubing the "key"-style items you find from andy/duriel/meph/diablo/baal
You get unlimited amounts of these respecs, they will be approximately as hard to acquire as a single Organ.


You get 3x free respec's from akara, one on each difficulty by beating the den of evil. You don't get a token of absolution from her- its just a text option in her dialogue tree that you can choose, like socketing an item with larzuk. You can only do this once, and then its gone. No token involved.

can you still get level 1's to hell without baal question?
if so, can you still level @ chaos sanc?

they buffed sorc and ignored druid :/

i'd say doubling or tripling the damage of the fire tree would have made fire druids much more pvp viable

a triple damage volcano would basically kill anyone in 1 shot
its fine as is

Somneone please answer this, it is important for LLDers to know.

It seems like classic rushing still has to be possible, but glitching sins and druids past Baal could be nerfed. Oh well, I'm prepared if that's the case.

tested volcano against a stacked vita nec with hot spurs - almost no damage
tested fissure against a stacked barb with infernoes - takes an extremely long time to lower the hp with him whirling back and forth over it

its a 99/99 druid with decent fire power

actually I'd agree with a buff if they did one for volcano. It is a viable skill as is because the majority of bnet baddies are undergeared bust seriously.. it could be stronger and be fine.
d2pk buffed the synergy to the point that it was 2.9k physical (6.6k total) volcano damage @ 163fcr (a build that would produce 1.2k physical damage on bnet), and yet still volcano druids were one of the most underplayed classes on d2pk with very few successful attempts at them compared to the mainstream core pvp builds. The high physical damage on volcano made them a threat in teams with amp but still.. they were never used in serious tvt just casuals and for fun.

What makes you think it will be nerfed?

I'll play D2 more if they implement:

- Charge bugs have been fixed.
- Blizzard nn desynch h3h3 so we synched client/server properly at all speeds.

My fire druid does very well in pub duels strictly because he carries about -54 fire res, and most people are under geared. However i tried to use him on a ladder and saw what stacked gm res can do to a fire druid

I'd say either the damage needs to be buffed or the rules need to be changed, scale chars that can use spurs back to infernos, and chars that can use infernos back to nothing at all when fighting a fire druid

should see less town fissures if we make these kinda changes O_o
