What causes Andariel bug drop. Test results.

[plasmo]

is there smth that can unbug the andy?

I'm almost sure there's nothing you can do to change it.

I knew you had to talk to Warriv, but I was never sure whether you had to actually go to Act 2 or not, so I always did. Thanks for the testing.

I had one MF sorc where I accidentally forgot to talk to Warriv after Andy. My inventory was full, Hell Andy dropped something that was good, and so I had to do the old "pick it up with inventory open, leave the game with the item on the mouse pointer, enter a new game, and drop it" trick, only to realize right after I left that I couldn't talk to Warriv by doing that. And whatever item I did it for really wasn't that great, anyway.

Was there any testing done based on different game creators. Say an unbugged andy character creates a game but the kill is made with a bugged andy character? or vice versa?

Since you need to talk to Warriv to go on with the game I would guess that most players activated this, without knowing.

I always thought the bug would work like this ( for all Bosses btw. )
-Char that has already done the quest opens game
-Char that has not done the quest kills Boss, doesn´t get quest, but questdrop
-repeat

But using this bug will disable your abilitie to go to a2,3,4 and 5?

Different bug

No. For the Andariel bug, you just have to talk to warriv in the same game you kill her. What you do after that does not matter.

I used it on Diablo in Classic, so it was no big deal, but as it seems, I was doing something pretty useless.

Guess that referred to my method.

Does this only work in SP? Cos I did this on eu scl, and she does drop blues.

It does work in BNET too, I just don't have the mood and ability to test in BNET. In solo BNet games it should be the same as in SP.

Check the durability of those blues. They're probably failed sets.

ok so to get this straight.
-kill andy for quest, click on wariv(just click on him or do you have to talk to him i.e. select some sort of option)
-exit game (without moving to act 2)
- then when in another game you can move on to act 2, 3 ,etc...
-now the andy bug is automatically engaged meaning that whenever you kill andy she has quest drops??

if this is true, thats a pretty sweet bug :grin:
