[Mod] Reign of Terror

Thank you so much for the reply! Now I can go about farming :smiley:

OK try it and works.
Then the order we equip items looks important.
Suggest : there is very good items as spirit sword and shield, splendid for leveling is it possible to get empowered and mythical versions of these items ?
From level 90 it is quite hard to earn a level, need act 4 and 5 to reach 93, and after moo moo farm or SR ?

wanna leave my footprints here.

Haven’t any complaints, you guys made a complete Diablo 2020 - this is no Diablo2 clone, it is something fresh and I know now why I have waited so long for a game like that. I played thousands of hours as casual hardcore gamer with necromancer or amazone/barbarian.

It is just fun to see the whole landscape. If you sell it officially honestly I would buy that game. It must have been a lot of work so my four thumbs move up to you all … WTF thats what I am waiting for two decades now…

thank you
kind regards

Runewords will get a rework and also new items in later updates so you’ll have plenty more options.

Leveling curve and monster difficulty is currently being re-balanced and should arrive with the next update. There’s still a lot of testing and fine tunning involved so we don’t any ETA yet.

Making any profit from RoT is not possible for obvious reasons and even though there is a ton of work behind the project, it was made out of passion for D2 so there was never any reward expected.

I started working on the mod in September 2016 and released 0.6.0.0 version in July 2019 which included everything the current version has except the world bosses and some items / bug fixes / QoL / balancing so the mod has been fully playable for quite a while now.

However, there’s much more content to come in the future so stay tuned for more.

can someone pls tell me the max numbers for skill points, attribute points, devotion points at lvl 100 having finished all 3 difficulties and done all quests…

That is actually you I respect the dev of this mod.It’s not for profit but for passion.I have played diablo for a very long time.I hanged up my gloves last year.There’s only 1 reason i didn’t start RoT yet and that is i want version 1 before i start playing :heart:

To the guys who made this mod - you are some special ppl to be able to create something as remarkable as this. My mind is kind of blown with how good this mod is. I’m loving it.
Also, just wondering, is brutalis meant to be this damn hard for a gladiator lol The floor spikes and lava eruptions kill me even with 85% fire resist and other high resists, and he keeps draining my mana every couple seconds so I can’t use my skills :open_mouth: Any special tactics I need to be aware of…?

when I first drove my necromancer in the catacombs to a hidden secret part of the map I was so flashed from the big monster, this was amazing cool stuff, I will NEVER forget this !
thank you guys :smile:

Finally defeated Brutalus after about 8 mins of constant kiting and running like a madman.

I was wondering also, at the character screen main menu, all the characters don’t show the Rein of Terror items equipped - will there be any way of fixing this at some stage…?

324 skill points, 114 attribute points and 81 devotion points

Congratz on defeating Brutalus as he’s definitely one of the harder challenges.

GD doesn’t load mod assets in the main menu (except tags) so the only way to see custom mod gear would be merging mod files with the base GD which would have to be performed on client side and at your own risk. In other words, it is not recommended.

Some items/sets are a bit too strong I feeI. 6 piece mythicaI nathaIya’s bIade sentineI assa facetanks every boss incIuding ubertristram.
didnt try the other mythicaI cIass sets yet

Plsss no nerfs prays

Isn’t that what endgame is about…? To become god-like with the well-earned sets that take time and effort to gather? I’m already struggling with high end gear on my char, so would not like to have more nerfs personally. Facetanking is highly enjoyable I find when you are at endgame with the best gear - why make every class struggle even with the top tier gear?

It can go either way depends on player.I am playing Diablo 3 with xbox emulator(i have the original on pc but have lag cause of net)I started the game on a high difficulty because it was just to easy.I personally would hate to face tank everything.

Idk if anyone tried median xl mod for diablo 2 but that is an indication how a assassin works.Dodge and dive to kill bosses.Even on hell if you don’t watch out you will crumble even with SUU(think its right lol)That’s for me enjoyable but it depends on the player.

I feeI you bro. NormaIIy I’m at your side. Just if you can beat the hardest content of the game with just right-cIick of mouse without even moving or dogding anything then it feeIs more Iike cheating/bugabusing for me. But that’s onIy my opinion of course.

Ah, no, I do get you, I do understand…It’s just, I only hope that certain characters will keep an edge over others at certain things, for example, the smiter paladin in d2 was great at uber farming, very reliable - a decent frenzy barb too could handle it (life tap was amazing) You needed to get the really hard to get high-end gear to get these builds together and viable for farming though…

Hoto was nerfed and oak sage, which I’m wondering why. Spells on items like life tap in original d2 would seem too op too perhaps now, but they made certain chars viable for the ubers… I guess I’m just worried that everything will be nerfed to make balance a priority where I really feel like it shouldn’t be, to the point where every class feels the same in terms of killing ability, speed etc… Where every class doesn’t have strengths or weaknesses regarding content, and there are no builds more suited for certain parts of the game if you get me… Sry for the long post

Lets see what happens.This mod is not nearly done i think.They are still busy with balancing etc.But like i said if you played median xl you will know what hard ubers is.Doesn’t matter how strong you are you have to think a lot and use different tactics for every uber.I just love a challenge.For instance i play D3 on high difficulty because i mad it to act 2 without ever using a health potion.

I’ll be waiting for version 1.0 before i start tackiling it.I did play till end with one toon but it felt not complete(that’s just me thought nothing to do with the mod)After thinking long and hard i changed my mind i would love if they can removed the gd classes/items cept for the dual class support and devotion.

So we can have a pure D2 experience with a twist.Well that’s my 2 cents :grin:

I mean, D3 is currently all about how far in the Greater Rift system and seasonal leaderboards you can climb… That’s great that you did that, and like the harder difficulties but D3 is currently lol mode on steroids. Basically, you just need 2 set’s and most any character can do GR 100+ no problem.

As for the mod, it’s a great breath of fresh air in a stale comparable parabola of a world.

I just realised something. I’m perfectly fine with buffing the enemies, make them super strong even, but I just dislike the removing of skills from items and nerfing the char skills, devotions, etc in order to balance the game. Anyway, I can’t believe how much I’ve been playing this mod recently. It is a masterpiece, even though it isn’t finished. You guys deserve an award!

Hi!

First things firts, this mod is exceptional! I’m having so much fun, it’s been 1 week that I’ve been playing nothing else, I’m really having a blast :smiley:
I loved Diablo 2 back in the days when I was still a kid and being able to play it again, on a modern engine and with all the new and fun stuff in the mod, it’s even better than the original (if that’s even possible xD)

I’ve started with a minion build 'cause I loved the Necromancer playstyle in the original D2, following one of the many guides available and so far, I’m shredding the content kind of without issues (I started Hell difficulty today)

I say ā€œkind ofā€ because I’m having trouble with one World boss on every difficulty, and only him: Cabra Negra, in the Underground Passage Level 2… this one is just too fast to keep up and he’s not just the only boss in the game that can kill my minions apparently… he can also shotgun me in 1 hit with his purple balls!!!
My resistances are all almost at max, I tried using also potions to max them all to cap but no help, I still get oneshot with over 11k HP
It’s been like this in all 3 difficulties, I died 60 times in this game and 58 were to him (I had to keep trying…)
I just moved away from him without being able to get him lower than 30% hp with a lucky run where he got in a good position to not be able to hit me with his purple balls… otherwise I’m lucky if he gets down to 50% hp before I get oneshot by these balls :frowning:

It’s kind of annoying mostly, not a real issue, but for comparison the next World boss (the one on the hill in the next area) I could kill him in my 2nd try without lots of issues, could’ve even done him without dying but got stuck because he ran off his arena and chased me into the trees on my first attempt xD

Any suggestion on how to handle Cabra Negra? Is there any reliable way to survive his balls or is it working as intended? Maybe I need more levels? I’m 74 now, he’s level 78
Wearing full Disciple set, with Pus Splitter as main weapon for the insane amount of buffs to my minions, I know it’s not optimal but so far I melt everything in my way by just walking through, for reference I can even kill the Dummy in town up to Nightmare difficulty

Waiting for your kind reply @Ram, meanwhile I’ll keep progressing and will get back to Cabra Negra later on and see how it goes xD

Cheers!

That’s exactly what’s currently happening.

This particular world boss is overtuned and will be adjusted accordingly in the next update.
