Apoc

I was just thinking of the D1 spell called "Apocalypse", imo best spell of th game too bad it only came in items and was not an actual skill itself :c. It would however be nifty if Blizz added another heavily destructive spell like that again

Re: Apoc

Yes, because more overpowered, skill-less abilities is JUST what this game needs...

Re: Apoc

It might be alright if it was still only charges, rather than an actual skill. The cost of repairing those charges should be pretty high, and you might not get much charges on an item to begin with. I remember there being a glitch with the sorcerer's recharge ability in D1 which hopefully wouldn't happen in this case.

Edit: Even if it wasn't the apocalypse skill, but some other skill that isn't on one of the classes. All the charged items in D2 were skills from the classes. I think it'd be interesting if there were "unassigned skills" that could only be found on item charges.

Re: Apoc

Legit Apocalypse staffs had 8-12 charges, so even with a perfect roll and the Bountiful prefix (triple charges), 36 would be the max. And 36 charges didn't go very far- so aside from clearing out the mob that spawned in D's room, Apocalypse staffs had very limited uses. It was only really abusable when people would hexedit the charges to 255.

Re: Apoc

Apocalypse was made a skill that you could learn in Hellfire. By killing Na-Krul he would drop a book of apocalypse
