Don't worry about getting to endgame content with your first set of characters. explore and experiment yourself, enjoy the story and the skills. don't get hung over optimizing everything. build guides can ruin alot of the exploration fun if you're new.

I recently have tried to explain most of this to a brand new d2 youtuber and it's soo tough without visual aid. You just did that to perfectly. Very nice video, especially for a non plugy d2 player 😎🔥🔥

[jasperhighwind]

I'm definitely a vet (been playing off and on for 15 years), and I learned some new things.

I totally didn't know that Ormus sold Life Tap and Teleport items STARTING at lvl 24; would have made going through Act 3 so much nicer before!

Also, I knew that Antidotes and Thaw pots gave resist, but I DIDN'T know you got an increase in duration the more you drank!

Very handy video! Added to a list; thanks for the upload!

Shopping a +3 fireball 2 socket staff to make Leaf Runeword. Shopping a +3 Bone Wand or +3 Corpse Explode Bone Spear Wand from in Act 2 will get 2 sockets in the socket quest and you can make White Wand. Great strats for Necro and Sorc Starters.

I'm ashamed to admit that despite playing thousands of hours of this game back in the day, i had NO idea about the resistance the Thawing and Antidote potions gave, along with not knowing about break points. I just always just stacked as much higher cast rate as i could find without sacrificing other things i needed. Thank You for this video!

Another good thing to mention is to save a Respec for when you have all the gear/charms you want for your character. Once you have that set you can min/max your stat points by adding enough to strength/dex for you to start equipping gear. Then your gear will carry the rest of your required stats so you can add more to your vitality. It may not seem like it to new players but those 15+ extra points into vitality makes a big difference

[MrBlizzard]

Been playing for 20 years . I agree with this entire video - it’s great advice . Follow it and the rest will fall into place

[Phnxkon]

Didn't know about breakpoints until Mr llama pointed them out during a speed run... old games running at low fps make for interesting mechanics.

[flagermusen]

Great tips. I don't know if it's still a thing, but one tip I remember back from playing many years ago was having big magic find items on your weapon swap. Like a Blade of Ali baba with 2 ist runes or a gull dagger with a rhyme shield or 4 Ist socketed shield. Then you weapon swap right before landing the killing blow on a boss to activate the bonus MF%.

12:59 to quickly navigate The Tower run in a counterclockwise motion from each door to get deeper and bring stamina potions, which can be equipped in your belt.

[workindad]

Excellent guide. I played for about 9 years back in the day and wrote a few guides on different builds and it seems even I forgot some of the useful tips you hit in this video. Thank you for the information.

[Bsquared]

Man, did I forget a lot over the last 20+ years. Thanks for this, saved for later use. Subscribed!

[dcontent]

Hey man just wanted to say amazing work with the video, great content your a natural for this. I think you should really be pumping these videos and good starter build videos out as much as possible because the hype is REAL and it is only getting bigger and bigger!! I imagine in 3-5 months your channel will easily double if not triple in subs

[danielb]

Overall great vid!!! Played for years at release. Love to see it coming back. Hope to come back for more good content. The only small quibble I have would be that, depending on your sorc build, you might not want to push vitality. But that’s getting in the weeds. Again great vid.

[SuperZakaru]

Protip, If you run into a lightning/ cold enchanted mob or ligjtning/fire or even worse all 3, the lightning bolts that come off them apply all those elemental damage types and will chunk you, beware of this incase they don't fix this bug in Resurrected. Also if the mob is dual enchanted and has cold enchanted the cold Nova when they die will also apply the elements of the other enchantments that unique mob has. You can very easily go from 1k hp to zero with one cold Nova or a few lightning bolts from multi enchanted mobs.

[snugglepuff]

Very detailed and informative. Love Diablo 2 and I love resurrected even more.

Man.. TY! I haven't played in around 14 years and this was very helpful!
