im getting sick of the amount of bugged, duped, and ease of getting runes... its not a joy to be godly anymore....
jw when the new ladder is supposed to come out, if not exact date, is there a projected or estimated date of new ladder?
No-one knows when the ladder reset. It could be around September or August, or it could be next year.
Also, even though Blizzard might reset the ladder, it doesn't necessarily mean that they'll release another patch. We could still be on patch 1.11b when the ladder resets.

oh ok, well hopefully its sooner rather than later.. but im confused, what does a new patch have to do with the ladder, when i said that i was sick of the ease of getting runes, i didnt mean finding them from baal, i meant finding duped traded versions everywhere, its not cool to have an enigma anymore, because every joe shmo made one yesterday... cus bers and jahs are EVERYWHERE i mean cmon whats the point... i sold my account on ebay last week and just waiting on the new patch to start again hehe.. sold for 92 bucks :)
Well, you mentioned 1.12 in your thread title, and then talked about the ladder season, so I assumed you thought they might have been the same thing :wink3:

The news from Blizzard is thateverything duped will poof, and any accounts associated with any sort of duping or hacking/scamming will be deleted.

If such a thing as 1.12 comes out, I imagine they would need to figure out how to stop the current desynch issue, then release the patch to fix that. That is a requirement, imo, since nothing else will stop dupers. Not banning users, although perhaps running ruststorm every saturday afternoon...

No one expected a 1.11 or even a 1.11a patch to come out, since 1.10 was seemed their final patch. Also since most original D2 Staff no longer works for Blizzard. I do not expect a 1.12 or any other patch.

They left after 1.10 (or even before it) though so the 1.11 patch was done by "others". Not syaing those were not involved in D2 before, there are still a whole bunch that was involved with D2, just not many of the main ones. I have NO idea who it is who handles D2 at Blizzard these days though.

Well 1.11 patch isn't essentially different than 1.10. I was playing D2 from day one until march 2003 non stop. I took a large break between that and august 2004 because of work/studies. The result was that 1.10 patch was introduced in the meantime. For people that started playing at 1.10 that may not seem important. But for me it was a different world. Synergies meant that my old builds were obsolete. Everybody was teleporting because of enigma, there were so many new runewords and uniques, and those soj counters kept reminding me that I was a noob again :)
A person that left the game when I restarted it (summer of 2004) and started over again a few months ago,would only have to learn about the new uber quest and be informed of the important new ladder only runewords (insight,spirit,grief etc).

Well the fact that they fixed the charges bug means that someone there has a clue about how Diablo works still.

Yes, some clue, but then, they have missed other things appearantly. After all, good code means others can come after and pick up and support the code, so that is not unsuspecting. The question is more, how well they want to pick up and how well they test changes for bad side effects (wasn't the multiple ethereal bonus by cubing from 1.11? Or was it allready before?).
This is only my opinion but why even talk about it? the patch will come when it comes.. and as long it isnt here try to have fun as it is now... or just quite for some time and rejoin the game after a few months...
my expectations are that a ladder reset could be popping up soon last 3 times the ladder lasted for about 6-9 months we are in month 7 now... but i just sit and wait and play from time to time with some friends and have fun with weird builds :azn:
Cheers,

A guaranteed way to get high level runes:
At level 90, Baal drops an Ist the first time you complete him...
At level 91, the ûbers drop a Gul
At level 92, they drop Vex
93, Ohm; 94, Lo; 95, Sur; 96, Ber; 97, Jah; 98, Cham; 99, Zod.
(Sure-- the market would overflow from bots leveling up-- but heck -- at least for single player players :cry: )
I would like to be able to kill a single cow in hell with my bowazon-- without having to shooting 121 frozen arrows though a crowd at level 81...
Wait-- that was 8 player nightmare, I never dared try hellcows, and she couldn't -- simply *couldn't* get past act 4 in hell alone...
I actually leveled up to level 78 in nightmare after hitting a wall of zombies that simply would not die because of twice over reduced damage for bows:
1) Half damage of other two handed weapons, bundled with little or none damage bonus from skills.
2) The bowazon's non-elemental damage crowd-control skills is reduced to 75% of full effect. Compared their equalient attacks: Fury, Jab, Zeal, Frenzy, Teeth, Charged Bolt, Frozen Orb, Poison Nova--
I've never seen a 6K Strafe (Zeal, Fury, Frenzy), or a multishot that deals 1000 damage per projectile -- where all projectiles may hit the same target (Frozen Orb, Charged Bolt)...
a) Stronger bowazons..!
b) Weaker paladins...
c) Tribute to lower level spells..! Most low level abilities, especially magic based, have natural limitations-- And Inferno or Glacial Spike sorc would be so great..!
Sacrifice..! Bash..! Fend..! Impale -- make impale very interuptable, and insta-kill on non unique / champion monsters..!
d) Fix the druid..! How many elemental druids do you see that works in an 8 player hell game..? Or a werewolf druid... Or a werebear druid that actually kills something...
The druid has so many bloody great spells..! Molten Boulder druid would be teh bomb..!
