Gearing up! Diablo 2 Resurrected

by_the_stone: "In fact that's my go to strat with most things in life. Just ignore it, just move on." Famous last words!
veight201: love how Gulzar took like 8 hits or something easy and then boom oneshot the javazon
rotemurmel7648: Just ignore it, just move on. BONK. Timing is 100%!!
wizrom3046: Wow dude you're playing hardcore like this?
Half the time your valk gets killed and you dont even notice, merc is close to dieing but you havent recast a valk, you never bother with decoy, you're running around with life down to 3/4 but havent bothered with taking a health pot or a purple...

I'll try to help;
Always have valk cast
If valk is far behind and you dont know what's in front and you have decent mana, recast valk in front
In tower or any rooms etc, always cast decoy into the room first, THEN poke your head through the door
If merc starts taking hits, tele back half a screen behind your valk
Cast decoy a lot, she acts like a "curse" and will control mobs near her giving you safe time to think
Never run around with health not 100%
If your health drops even 25%, instantly cast decoy/valk/tele as needed and get the heck out of there and regroup
Always have 2 columns of your belt with purples, plus 1 health, 1 mana

I played hardcore for years and man it hurt watching you play like this!
You obviously have skills and know the game well, and sure do make great videos, but PLEASE get some hardcore sense.
stephenoliveau: Hate that I missed this... GL Schmuck!
majula1518: i missed it again darn. still gonna watch this whole thing while i grind
jilldaviau: There've been times my char was insta-killed, and I have no clue what happened. I wish D2R had something like the Recount add-on for WoW, which has a Death Log that shows you exactly what killed your character.
E1337Jerk: Fuckin one shot dear god
Royy: Damn that hurt
