I've toyed with the 'extra steps' ideas myself, its not a terrible idea. The biggest time saver you could have in a classic rush is an easier way to do hell trav, and just swapping onto a 2nd hammerdin while everyone is in-game would save more time than using the specialized all-in-one crusher sorc that can solo hell trav and kill toorc with static. And then the best thing going for that is you can swap chars while people run the A2 town gauntlet. But then you're making a whole 2nd char, a level ~75+ hammerdin with full gear just to marginally speed up one single part of the crush. Not worth the time to do it

It's not my method, i just share the trick for the permanent mules, since i haven't seen it documented anywhere.
And about details, you can remove the waiting of the duriel chamber opening, the "here, take my cube" thing, and probably other things.
The purpose of this topic isn't to prove anything.
People are old enough to decide if they want to use it or not.
You used the word "emotional", not me.
Cheers.

Yea it kind of defeats the purpose. You could technically have multiple hdins/sorcs rushing tps to eliminate down time but usually you are limited by the rushed running speed anyway. You can set it up to get a rush record maybe

Again you are assuming, maths don't care about your feelings you either do a comparison with ALL factors involved or don't make claims





What you have here is a trap where you think that making a mule to make up a significant time save is actually many extra steps and factors (which have been already pointed out to you) which don't make it significant at all. In fact it makes it slower. Thanks have a good day

I don't pretend to know the maths as much as you do, that's the difference between you and me.
Again, if you have a problem with my method, just don't use it.
Diablo 2 is a video game, you should chill a bit.

Hey look bud you are all kinds of inconsistent, it's OK to be wrong. We here to fact check.
If this method was legit better or significant time save as you put it then I would be all over it. Unfortunately it isn't. Like I said thanks for providing a different insight to the game

Well, it's kinda "half my method", since permanent mules don't seem to have been documented (temporary mules yes), but i know i'm not the only one playing with quest flags.
And about being right or wrong, i stopped using those words long ago, so we're definitely not living in the same world.
But if you're a lawyer or something, i can understand your insistence.

EDIT :

Some truth holders have respectfully pointed out that the data i provided is useless.
If you agree with that, keep in mind bumping it will make it visible much longer.
You're on your own from now on.
Cheers.

Thanks for the laugh, your level of projection is strong

Cool topic. Thanks for the 'RalTirTalSol'.

It’s good idea if you want to make a lot of normal socket quest lol
