I've got a question I'm hoping someone can answer. I remember in LoD you could namelock a player with lightning fury on jav side then swap to bowside and use guided arrow with the same namelock.
I've tried testing this in D2R and it doesn't seem to work. Is this no longer possible in D2R?

have you tried moving your mouse “offscreen”, aka over the skill or potion sector, then switching?

Hey, thank you! I just tried this it works. It's too bad there isn't an easier way to do this.

Switch from lightning fury to unsummon then hit weapon swap

Thanks for the suggestion. I think this would be more consistent. Did something change with the weapon swap mechanic in D2R?
