Reddit user ReasonSin showed off their most recent haul inDiablo 2 Resurrectedto the envy of the internet. Playing as an Assassin on Hardcore Mode, a few farming runs over the course of one morning yielded two near-perfect pieces of loot. A Harlequin Crest Shaco head-slot item and The Stone of Jordan ring will both serve ReasonSin’s assassin well with rolls ideally suited for the class. Since themeta inDiablo 2 Resurrectedhas players putting almost no stats into Energy, the additional mana from both pieces is crucial for end-game success. The plus to all skills are also fantastic for the Assassin, and the magic find on the Harlequin Crest Shako is phenomenal for farming more legendary items.
Playing on Hardcore inDiablomakes these items all the more special, but also gives them a tenuous nature. InDiablogames, when a character on Hardcore dies, that death is permanent, and all the accumulated loot and experience dies with it. ReasonSin’s new gear should aid in survivability, but it also makes their gameplay more precarious, as one misstep could mean saying goodbye to the two near-flawless items.
Finding the perfect piece of loot in aDiablogame is a thrilling experience, and finding two back-to-back is a nearly unparalleled high in gaming. Posts like ReasonSin’s are stoking anticipationahead of the release ofDiablo 4, which many fans are optimistic will represent a new standard of excellence for the ARPG genre.
Diablo 2: Resurrectedis available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
