Hell Unleashed Remastered (1.8)

One thing I'm debating is if I want to rebuild all items, or just fine tune here and there. A complete rebuild would take a lot of time.

I think 1.3 was already pretty balanced. Yeah there are some less than useful items in there, but they are better than nothing to some people before they find better gear.

If you give me information on how to edit items I wouldn't mind going through and making items less redundant. In general I think items should be clear cut in their design and intended purpose. Having a druid helm with skills, fcr, and melee stats makes little sense. Seems superior to have a melee version and a caster version.

There are also just a lot of items that serve no purpose, or serve so an absurdly unique and unfleshed out purpose that they're pointless. An example of this is a necro melee wand.

This isn't to say I wouldn't mind said items being in the game, but they at the very least need to offer viability.

As I have stated previously, multishot is an excellent alternative for a wide variety of melee centric builds to give them a way to clear, but usually the gloves give a single oskill and it's hardly worth the endeavor.

I know a lot about a lot of builds. Bowazons, melee barbs, bone necros, poison zons, etc. but this is an awful way to discuss it which is why I asked if you had a discord.

What do you mean by discord?

Also with newly balanced skills making more viable builds end game I wouldn't rule out too much for gear.

I can teach you about editing, I'm still learning myself. But maybe we can get a Skype group to easily discuss stuff?

The way I'd like to create uniques and set items is this.

- Items will have "modification points" to spend on item modifications.
- Normal quality uniques 20 points
- Exceptional quality uniques 40 points
- Elite quality uniques 60 points.
- Low level modification will require 2-3 points, example 10% damage reduction.
- Mid level modifications will require 4-5 points, example 20% damage reduction.
- High level modifications will require 6-7 points, example 30% damage reduction.

On average you will get 6-10 modifications per item. This is a good way to balance out how many modifications are on an item and make sure it isn't too over powered.

Generally speaking I feel like that will lead to things like brevans 4x absord shields and everything being relatively the same with a few outliers being the choice you want.

My skype is qucangel, discord is just a newer more appropriate program.

We can make a discord. I'm just starting to learn how to mod d2. I have some ideas, but not the knowledge.

Well if you were to use 4x different sorb mods you would only have room for 2-3 other mods. I have no intent on making that an item. Though Dragon Scale shield had some really high sorbs on it.

Here is a full list of Unique armors in 1.3b. It's a large task if we were to rebuild each one but it shouldn't be too difficult to identify the purpose of the item and then what attributes help that cause.

These are just armors. Weapons list is just as long, and there are also jewelry and other stuff... so yeah. :shock:

For spells, please give a reason to put points in to Energy. E.g. War Cry from 1.17 HU was a great reason to take energy. If this worked with spell skills this would be a great reason to put points in to it, and also a way to justify a lower regen mana % all over.

I'm going to be very thorough with this patch. Hopefully build a foundation that can be used for patches going forward. I didn't really want to do a total rebuild, just minor adjustments. After talking to over a dozen people there's a lot of common suggestions among most players that I feel people really want to be addressed.

Right now my focus is on rebuilding unique items. I'm creating a list of all possible item modifications (and the modification range vary based on equip type such as helmet, body armor, amulet, gloves, etc.) The current file is 1,110 lines of modifications with 3 columns of variables I need to fill in. Once this is done unique items will get to choose 6-10 modifications of this list. The range of these modification will be based on the item quality level (normal, exceptional, elite).

This measurement system will assure we have balanced, well designed and useful items across the board. Items with a purpose that will help various characters.

Here is the spreadsheet I'm working on for unique item modifications.

Exceptional Unique armors are done. We remain with the theme of having an armor for fire, lightning, cold, poison, magic, melee. There are multiple caster, melee, defensive items as well as resist items. If you noticed I replaced Glorycrest Elite Unique with Demonspike Coat, a classic unique from Diablo 1, you will see Glorycrest made its return but 20 levels lower. Should be easier to find now as well! This will allow for MFing around the start middle of Nightmare.

I'm of the mind that Griffon's Eye should be - 15% enemy resists across the board; all except poison. Also, could Veil of Steel have +5% max all resists instead of Damage Reduced by %?

Hrm. How has the common Damage Reduced by x% worked on high end items? I wonder if things shouldn't be so symmetrical and have one off mods to signify that that's what they are?

Edit 2 - Could there be more X on level mods on items? Some of them are unique enough to last until later levels.

Well with Griffs eye we use to MF as a group and it would go to the person who it helped most. So if it war 15% fire and next best was 13% light, it would go to our parties fire member. It's really not that big of a deal though. Small %.

Also have to be careful with sorb. Veil of Steel is meant to be for physical resistance and defense. There are a few sorb items if you want to stack sorb. If a boss or area has high ele damage you may use the following item just for that area.

Not sure what you mean by other stuff.

-snip original message-

Mods that are X/character level. E.g. 1 str / clvl. These could be anything within the limits of the game.

For the other question I asked, I mean putting a mod on an item that is based on lore of the item itself. Something flavourful but still relevant. Like, Giant Skull having crushing blow on it (low percent because there are few p.immunes in this mod).

The max resists thing could be handled by not awarding absorbs on items. These should be suitably rare and not in conjunction with the best items in the game. These should be equipment choices, but not common.

These are just my thoughts.

Continuing to work on items in free time. Was sick a couple weeks so busy catching up on work.

Doing some more work on the patch now.

The main thing I'm doing is working on creating a purpose for items and then balancing them.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... sp=sharing

You can see in the spreadsheet below that each tier of items tries to have at least 1 piece for melee, caster, defense, resist, absorb, and individual elemental gear (fire, lightning, cold, poison, magic).

I would just like to point out what angel said in terms of builds and removing smite and how healers are boring. I personally think that is a load of shit and in fact love playing as a healer, smite is a useful skill whether its used as a sole build or just a utility.

The healer provides another aspect to the game which no other build can, it promotes teamwork and provides variety, i make a healer every single patch and find it very rewarding and enjoyable to play as. It really needs to remain as it is, its up to you whether you scale it up or down i dont care, just dont butcher it. Cheers!

i have to say that i cant wait to see this patch going live... im not one of those vets that plays hu since the begining but i did start on 1.3F and i found that it was the most fun patch online ive played. i mostly think that going in major skill / build changing is why the patch variety is so huge and also why it feel so bad... i think going into to mutch major change will probly end up on a non balanced patch since it will make NEW problem. i mean if you want to nerf or buff some of the skill go for it but i think that the biggest issue about doing the major change is that you wont ever have enough help at testing so it wont feel as perfect as you guy would like too... if you guys are going in a remastered version it will be AWESOME

anyway im not here to say do this or do not since i dont even have the time to help you guys do it and also i dont have the knowledge but plz keep it simple

this mod is so awesome trying to change the core is probly wat makes it die slowly....

on the other hand i think adding new content is probly the best way to attract ppl.
i think that most of the player ( if not all ) are nostalgic... keeping that in mind... if we could had a whole section to maybe ( act4 ) and in that section we could bring diablo 1 features... maybe the WHOLE d1 it will be so insane... i was thinking about it and i ended up on 1 problem so far. ( not talking about the work and everything it involve but ) adding a HUGE maybe 16 level in act4 will probly end up having to balance all the monster n drops n shit in act5 since we will get alot of exp down there. ... i was thinking to keep that aspect simple we could probly make that portal opens only in Hell act4 since wps are pretty LOW and make that area ilvl95. a full new area that unlock once you kill maybe Hell baal ? and in that area there should be lvl 95 items runes n things like that .... i was also thinking of adding a bonus to mf% every time you get past a entire lvl ( refering to d1 there was the cathedral/catacombs/cave/Hell lets say once we enter the cathedral we get +100% mf once we enter the catacombs an other 100%mf + 100% in cave and +100 in hell. so it end up having 400% mf when you enter lvl14 (hell area) ... maybe its not a good idea at ALL but you know for some builds it hurths ALOT to cut dmg to pull in mf so it could be helpfull to have a bonus to MF.... so let me know wath you guys think and also im sorry for my bad english.

GOOD luck and +1 on trying to keep that mod alive i cant wait to try that remastered version !!!! thx guys

What i suggest not only for this mod but for every D2 mod is:

1)Get rid of charms or do something with them so that they dont end up filling your entire inventory

2)Get rid of Magic Find. Lets not be in dilemma whether we should equip that +MF item or that item with the sweet stats. After all D2 is all about equipping and having fun with the best you have.

3)Skill pre-requirements. Old, bad, unbalanced, outdated feature.

On your point about charms, i do have to agree, although rather than removing them, why not create a small inventory space dedicated to general charms/ non unique, which forces people to decide on what charms they need/want for their build without becoming a hindrance on your inventory. leaving you to fill your inventory with the unique charms if you wish.
