My Diablo 2 discord community. Hit that up :) discord.gg/8GXyu7A The results from 10k Lower Kurast Runs video (Give you an idea about LK farming) czcams.com/video/vfzUMPtxQNw/video.html
Hey, I liked this vid....but now i have a question....does any of this pertain to battlenet? And is LK even worth running on battlenet, specifically sparkly chests. Ive never seen one in LK before...
I recently got into playing pluggy was a big D2 newbie. Watching all these guides trying to see what I can do to optimize my runs/mfing and I just realized that I probably have to godliest LK map you can get. I got it on my 3rd roll or so too. Been extraordinarily lucky 4 Ohms and 1 Sur within less than a 1000 runs - probably about 500. Also found tyraels might :) All that within less than a week in - thanks for the videos - truly bringing a lot of joy and fantastic content that motivates ppl to get (back) into the game and "study" it a bit more too!
Thank you so much for this! I recently got back into Diablo 2 after about fifteen years and had no idea things like this could be done. Within a dozen attempts I got a layout in Hell with the two campfires right by the waypoint and I’m already finding runes far faster than I had been.
thanks for the amazing job man, im brazilian and been in d2lod a long time, did more than 300 runs last week and the best rune droped was a vex, aiming for the 1000s! thanks again, big fan!
Thanks a bunch for this video. I have been playing on and off for nearly 20 years (before LOD expansion). Just started doing these runs on p7 a couple of days ago and already have Mal, 2 gul, vex, Lo, and sur. My map is godly, but I dont use a sorc. I have necro with 40 faster run walk. Run time about 1 min. Use pindle to raise skelly and just run it.
Fantastic video, this taught me a lot :D I have never built a lategame runeword, so Im gonna have to try this to achieve my very first enigma and infinity :D
I've been playing a lot of pluggy for the first time. I used this video to find a 10/10 two fire map. The two fires and way point are all beside each other. No Bers yet though.
After about an hour of rolling for a decent LK map I got something amazing. Two campfires 1 Campfire is 1 Teleport. The other Campfire is 3 Teleports away. The 1st Campfire top right super chest is a Teleport away from the 2nd top left Campfire. About 16 Teleports per run.
04:35 - he makes a mistake here which can confuse you: He says "to skip running the entire LOWER Kurast Dock" When in fact he means "to skip running the entire KURAST DOCKS", i.e. the town.
Great Video! Even some things i didn´t know like the patterns. Maybe include little tips in there e.G. "get enought keys beforehand" I think those small tipps are what can make the diffrence in a video. great Video overall and I will farm some myself now.
Your lk videos inspired me to spend some time doing them. I have done several hundred runs, was it worth it for me? YES. I found a sur, a gul, vex, ist, mal, um, lots of lems, and a few good set and unique items. I didn't know two campfires can spawn, first thing I will load some new maps until I find a double. I consider myself a pro d2 player. I play hc only, I've played for many years but I honestly have never been the type of player that pays mind to extreme detail, like looking for the perfect hell difficulty map or paying attention to specific stats or rolls, or basing my play time on efficiency ..im the kind of player that just plays if that makes sense. This time around I have stood firm in my personal goal to NOT cheat, it IS single player after all. Last year when I came back to d2 I ended up duping items, runes, copy and pasting game files to cheat. Using atma for much of it. But no more, and it's much better because I got bored quick last time around with cheat runes I made duping via atma. Now my items, atma-banked runes, and runewords are legit! It felt good to beat hell on hardcore legit, i did a lot of mf for the gear needed to do so every milestone i got to. I did normal mephy runs at first, then normal baal runs for gear to start nightmare (vipermagi !!) , then nm mephy where i found my occulus, ready to start hell! Then i spent a long while doing hell andy , countess, and mephy where i found some of my end game gear like shako until i was ready to finish hell.
Pro tip, if you are running Plugy, get a loot filter, it really makes it easier to spot those runes as it filters out a lot of the useless items dropping from the chests. Dbrunski has a video about loot filters as well so go ahead 😁
Great video! It was a little tricky to see the maps, I think you had the transparency setting on, and is that a 5 o'clock shadow I see? Growing a beard after all eh?
I WATCH ADS FOR DBRUNSKI!!! Ive never seen the actual rune patterns before so that is new information for me. No wonder Sur runes drop the most. I use my pally to run LK and i run the docks with vigor. I dont just search for runes, i pick up all charms, druid helms, rings and ammys. LK might be decent on BNET if you do them during baal runs. P8 count. you wont get realm down and you can get the last few waves and baal for XP. Another great video dude
Amazing video. By the way, if you`re farming LK on a sorc, use telekinesis to open chests from the middle of the huts and to activate wps, it`s even faster.
Great info! I'm about 100 runs in! It's fun so far, I have an armor rack that consistently drops pally shields, I've gotten a couple decent high res ones, but mostly 8 res all. Another drops a shako like a quarter of the time, so I got like 300 mf to try and drop Harley! I'd re-roll if it weren't for that one shako rack, but it's a decent map so I'll stick it out for a few days I think.
So because of the lack of speed on Bnet, is it worth additionally popping all of the corpses, stashes, chests, baskets, and logs throughout the entire zone?
I'm playing D2R SP (after months playing only in Bnet) and finally reached Lower Kurast in Hell with my sorc. I rolled the map a couple of times and find a good map there. Now the real HR farm begins! xD
Hey Dbrunski! Any chance we could get a bnet LK guide? I'm farming it on players 1, with trav. I need a ber rune! I just found an um from a LK super chest, but I dont know how much luck I will have with finding 2 sur's. Do you know how many vex+ patterns there are in a player 1 game?
Hey Dbrunski i have 2 questions: 1. is your name short for D(iablo)B(aal)runs-ki ? :D 2. is lower kurast also considered the most efficient way for farming highrunes when i play alone but in battlenet? EDIT: should watch the whole video before i comment something, got it now. But you could join public baalruns and whilst the Host teleports to the throneroom, you could clear LK, right? thank you very much for your good content, keep D2 fresh!
I just rolled a pretty sick Lower Kurast map on the 2nd try, 2 campfires very close to the town portal. One is right next to it and the other one is almost as close.
i have a question i hope you Can answer for me. How Can i optimize my LK runs with all the loot cluster from the super chests. I find its taking me a lot of time to click through all that gold when a chest pops with tons of loot, just to make sure i dont miss Any Runes. Got any tips?
My question maybe stupid, but: If I enter LK on p1, clear area and then set p7, will chest patterns be set to p7 as well? I'm asking because enemies are not instantly boosted by p8 and I don't remember higher rune being dropped from chests than Pul. And I'm something above noob seeing how much do you know about D2.
Do u think higher MF increases the chance to get the loot pattern where only rare items drop? I find it to be worthless when only rares drops from the chest, since it cant contain any charms. Not sure if it can still contain any runes, but so far i havent gotten any runes when it only drops rares Edit: Charms do drop aswell when rare (yellow) items drop. It just seems to be super super rare. After about 1k runs total, I got my first charm when rares dropped lol
I rolled a very lucky map of LK with 2 campfires and for some reason one of the armor stands keep dropping me a sacred targe almost every second run. Why is that? Is it map dependent or my character level (86) ?
I watched the video, but perhaps I just missed it: Why can you not just save and exit after opening the final chest in LK? That would respawn you at the Act 3 docks, right, then you could just waypoint back to LK? Why do you have to take the WP to Act 4 before saving/exiting? Edit: found my answer at 4:35
DB what is the "orange flash" that you speak of? I always waste too much time due to paranoia of not seeing all the drops, would be tremendously helpful if you could elaborate. Thanks!
Did some math out of curiosity using this video and your 10k lower kurast runs video and got this for runs per rune: your runs vs calculated odds based on 63536 patterns and 6 chests per run: pul 17 =588 993 um 8 =1250 1214 mal 10 =1000 728 ist 5 =2000 1560 gul 10 =1000 993 vex 5 =2000 1821 ohm 4 =2500 2185 lo 2 =5000 5461 sur 6 =1667 993 ber 0 =n/a 3641 Real question is what are the odds you missed some runes because those huge chest drops are annoyingly large due to not being able to see all the drops at once and tons of piles of gold and potions. Like how many of those drop patterns for high runes are patterns that have enough items to hide the rune? You got a bit unlucky not finding any Ber runes and on number of Sur runes.
Been doing this using 2 computers and no plugy mod. Both computers use the same diablo install and play in single player mode. I use the "other multiplayer" "TCP / IP" options to mule. 1 computer hosts the mule game the other is the main account. I imagine I could 1/2 and half those roles on the 2 computers. 1 odd upside is the maps are all the same between mule sessions. So after run 1 of the maps, the paths to bosses are pre-mapped in the next sessions. "have to stick to the same mode though". The down side is of course, no use of ladder rune words, the improved stash, and other ladder play perks like bigger bosses. [paragraph below isn't about the "same map between games" mentioned above] Been reluctant to do the plugy gaming. Haven't seen any video posted by it's players extolling "safe files" for use. So I assume it's the risk of using the plugy mods. Certainly I've seen video's on get this here, install it like this. But haven't noted any of the videos saying. "I found safe files here", "I've never had an issue here", or similar quotes to the files being pointed at. Even better still would be a consensus by plugy players on where to get safe files. Any tips of that nature would be welcome from the host.
I think a quick note about cheap 200 FCR sorc gear would help. Arachnid mesh can be hard to find, but you can get to 200 fcr with a crafted caster belt. Here's a sample set up. Weapon: Wizard Spike(so much res) / Suicide Branch; 50 FCR Gloves: Magefist / Trangs Gloves; 20 FCR Armor: Skin of the Vipermagi; 30 FCR Helm: 20 FCR circlet Rings: 10 fcr each That's 140 FCR base. Then, with good enough rolls, you can get 60 more with a combination of Spirit Shield, crafted caster amulet and caster belt. Boots are whatever. I like Aldur's boots because the fire res compliments the resistances of spirit nicely, the 40% FRW is a marginal speed boost for farming, and extra life is good because dying will really slow down the farming. Oh, and it is possible to get 200 FCR without spirit, but then Arachnid mesh is necessary. Just in case anyone is playing vanilla single player.
Do you do the /players 8 trick every time you make a new game on LK or just once and leave it like the trick you showed to switch it? I am farming it atm and using the trick but wanted to ensure I’m not waisting time by doing it each time?
M B I was testing it based on what was dropping from chests, which didn’t seem to be as much as it did when I typed /players 8 each time. Hence asking D, who runs this a lot. Thanks for the info and the snide comment.
If u have the time to pop everything in Lower Kurast on single player or battle.net i would do so most the high runes I get are not even from the super chests but come from stashes corpses etc same goes for charms jewels and occasionally gear that is of some value for example socketed or superior armors and weapons. but as stated in the video you can just focus on the super chests if you want to be way more efficient. As for me ill be making a sorceress this next ladder reset and will be farming lower kurast through too travincal for all the chests bodies stashes etc.
Hey I have done almost 1.5 - 2k runs with my Wind Druid and in my 5th or 6th run I got lucky and got a Ohm that was the first and the last .Is there a trick ?Chests around seems luckier as I got a Sur lol :):)
Does this apply to series x. Because I been doing this run for months and haven't gotten a hight rune from them. I normally farm them for gems and charms
can you share where you get the drop rates? its so hard to find full games on b net now.. i need to know drop rates of just solo farming, please? can you let me know?
It is nice guide for HR in LK, but what are the chances of getting unique/set? Is there a chance of getting something or is it very limited "choice of possible drops?" By watching you guys D2 players it makes me want to get back playing it too actually.
Hey buddy! You have inspired me to get back into D2! Just got accidentally banned from bnet because of VPN so I downloaded PlugY to hop back on for now. :) Had a quick question: what do you mean by "roll" a map?
In solo mode, you can change the map by changing difficulty. The game reroll all the maps after you changed difficulty. So just make a game in hell, if it's not what you want go in nightmare or normal and come back in hell to see if the map is better.
I found a really good seed that spawns the hut of the first campfire literally next to the hut of the second campfire. I'm gonna try running with MF now since I also need other items.
just type /players x with x=1 to 8, know that this works in pairs for drop rate, so players 1 and players 2 will be the same, 3 and 4 are the same, 5 and 6 are the same, and 7 and 8 are the same
What version is this based on? And can MF adversely effect drops? I understand probability don't guarantee drop rates, but I've done 600 runs and the highest rune I've come across is Lum. (1.14d, 146%MF). Video was crazy helpful to see though!
Why not loot every single chest/rock etc in LK? i just did a couple of hours of farming there and found nothing in the superchests but 1 pul and mal rune from normal chests.

Dbrunski do I have to keep typing /players 8 every time I want that difficulty when starting a new lower Kurast run
Jason Gondola nope. Not unless you close all of d2. Not for refreshing the game over and over again.
Does character lvl matter
Dude, when are you gonna read us the Grinch, it's almost Christmas! Dbrunski Storytime, I'm telling you!

20 years later and I'm learning and re'learning things about this masterpiece of a game :)
Right? I never knew you could bug Andariel and Duriel, increasing the quality of their drops. Found that out LAST WEEK! Wat.
amen brother
Tho andy and dury bug only limited to sp only,
Necro comment, just started playing again!Love Diablo 2!!!
@@gavyndickerson6203 wait, what?
This was one of the most useful diablo 2 farming videos i've seen. Thanks for the info✌

Thanks a lot for your videos. I'm playing D2 for about 15 years and I still learn some things here and there, pleasant feeling :D
Thank you so much for this! I recently got back into Diablo 2 after about fifteen years and had no idea things like this could be done. Within a dozen attempts I got a layout in Hell with the two campfires right by the waypoint and I’m already finding runes far faster than I had been.
Exactly what I was looking for, thank you dbrunski 💜
Thanks for this guide. Yesterday I've found LO rune, and today SUR rune. After "only" LK 225 runs. :)
Dbrunski my man! Followed this guide and got a Ber rune after about 15 runs!! Thanks so much! :D
Such a detailed guide! Will reference back to this vid a lot. 👍
thanks for the amazing job man, im brazilian and been in d2lod a long time, did more than 300 runs last week and the best rune droped was a vex, aiming for the 1000s! thanks again, big fan!
Awesome video and perfect timing! Working my way through hell now :)
thank you! i just strated MFing and wanted to farm LK efficiantly and this helped me really much!
Thanks a bunch for this video. I have been playing on and off for nearly 20 years (before LOD expansion). Just started doing these runs on p7 a couple of days ago and already have Mal, 2 gul, vex, Lo, and sur.

Great polishing on the content man. Looks and sounds extremely professional.
Thank you! just started ladder and added this to my MF runs, did about 10 runs. got a OHM

Awesome video, perfectly clear and very much appreciated👏👏👏
Glad it was helpful!
Like many here I played this game like 15 years ago intensively. The math behind this game and the efforts = rewards will be timeless
Super helpful video, thank you for this.
I really enjoy your video's, they are so useful
Thank so much for posting.
After about an hour of rolling for a decent LK map I got something amazing.
Two campfires
1 Campfire is 1 Teleport. The other Campfire is 3 Teleports away.
The 1st Campfire top right super chest is a Teleport away from the 2nd top left Campfire.
About 16 Teleports per run.
Dbrunski125 first guy that pop up on YT and i didnt have to look for any others. Great guides and still apply to D2r
Great video as always. TKS!
Thanks for the info! So what would be the best place to look for runes at bnet? Cows maybe?
04:35 - he makes a mistake here which can confuse you:
He says "to skip running the entire LOWER Kurast Dock"
When in fact he means "to skip running the entire KURAST DOCKS", i.e. the town.
Thanks so much! Love your videos!!!
Great Video! Even some things i didn´t know like the patterns. Maybe include little tips in there e.G. "get enought keys beforehand" I think those small tipps are what can make the diffrence in a video. great Video overall and I will farm some myself now.

Good video. Very helpful, liked and shared!
quirky shadows, or DB left his razor at home today :P great vid DB! I'm still loving these runs
Amazing video.
By the way, if you`re farming LK on a sorc, use telekinesis to open chests from the middle of the huts and to activate wps, it`s even faster.

Do the superchests in Kurast and Upper Kurast have the same rune drop-specs as those in Lower Kurast?
Hello. Does the rune pattern applies in each character or for the account as a whole when in SP?
I avoid having any music playing when doing these runs because I'm scared of missing the sound of a rune dropping.
So because of the lack of speed on Bnet, is it worth additionally popping all of the corpses, stashes, chests, baskets, and logs throughout the entire zone?
how do you deal with the clutter on p7 setting? Always feel like ive missed a ber rune cause i didnt look properly!
I'm playing D2R SP (after months playing only in Bnet) and finally reached Lower Kurast in Hell with my sorc. I rolled the map a couple of times and find a good map there. Now the real HR farm begins! xD
just found this while researching d2r, link to your twitch?
To avoid realm down you could probably include a Countess run (and maybe Eldritch too,) seems like it’d be efficient to farm runes/stuff.
So useful thank you!
Great video man
Hi, do You farm superchests in river of flames? Theres only 2 chests, but can drop up to jah
Hey Dbrunski! Any chance we could get a bnet LK guide? I'm farming it on players 1, with trav. I need a ber rune! I just found an um from a LK super chest, but I dont know how much luck I will have with finding 2 sur's. Do you know how many vex+ patterns there are in a player 1 game?
I reloaded d2 because of your videos. I’m doing LK Runs found my first Ber yesterday and my second one today lol and I’ve yet to find an Um rune yet
Hey Dbrunski i have 2 questions:
1. is your name short for D(iablo)B(aal)runs-ki ? :D
2. is lower kurast also considered the most efficient way for farming highrunes when i play alone but in battlenet?
EDIT: should watch the whole video before i comment something, got it now.
But you could join public baalruns and whilst the Host teleports to the throneroom, you could clear LK, right?
thank you very much for your good content, keep D2 fresh!
I just rolled a pretty sick Lower Kurast map on the 2nd try, 2 campfires very close to the town portal. One is right next to it and the other one is almost as close.
i have a question i hope you Can answer for me. How Can i optimize my LK runs with all the loot cluster from the super chests. I find its taking me a lot of time to click through all that gold when a chest pops with tons of loot, just to make sure i dont miss Any Runes. Got any tips?
Don't the superchests in Kurast and Upper Kurast have the same specs for runes as those in Lower Kurast?
My question maybe stupid, but:

Do u think higher MF increases the chance to get the loot pattern where only rare items drop? I find it to be worthless when only rares drops from the chest, since it cant contain any charms. Not sure if it can still contain any runes, but so far i havent gotten any runes when it only drops rares
Edit: Charms do drop aswell when rare (yellow) items drop. It just seems to be super super rare. After about 1k runs total, I got my first charm when rares dropped lol
I rolled a very lucky map of LK with 2 campfires and for some reason one of the armor stands keep dropping me a sacred targe almost every second run. Why is that? Is it map dependent or my character level (86) ?
Masterful video. everything explained perfectly. thank you
With long load times in d2r, I wonder if just leaving game (in act 3) is quicker now as long as you have high runwalk?
Could you show an example of a budget fcr sorc setup for teleporting?
Love it!! Just found Ohm rune at players 8 =)) dont have nice gear yet, but im getting better and better, keep going with ur vids
Second Ohm Today omg lol !! =) i was thinking about cta, but im not sure now lol
malawiglenn - you answered it yourself, it doesn't matter if it's 7 or 8 players.
I watched the video, but perhaps I just missed it: Why can you not just save and exit after opening the final chest in LK? That would respawn you at the Act 3 docks, right, then you could just waypoint back to LK? Why do you have to take the WP to Act 4 before saving/exiting?
Edit: found my answer at 4:35
very good guide!
DB what is the "orange flash" that you speak of? I always waste too much time due to paranoia of not seeing all the drops, would be tremendously helpful if you could elaborate. Thanks!
The color of the runes letters are orange
Did some math out of curiosity using this video and your 10k lower kurast runs video and got this for runs per rune:
your runs vs calculated odds based on 63536 patterns and 6 chests per run:
pul 17 =588 993
um 8 =1250 1214
mal 10 =1000 728
ist 5 =2000 1560
gul 10 =1000 993
vex 5 =2000 1821
ohm 4 =2500 2185
lo 2 =5000 5461
sur 6 =1667 993
ber 0 =n/a 3641
Real question is what are the odds you missed some runes because those huge chest drops are annoyingly large due to not being able to see all the drops at once and tons of piles of gold and potions. Like how many of those drop patterns for high runes are patterns that have enough items to hide the rune? You got a bit unlucky not finding any Ber runes and on number of Sur runes.
Been doing this using 2 computers and no plugy mod. Both computers use the same diablo install and play in single player mode. I use the "other multiplayer" "TCP / IP" options to mule. 1 computer hosts the mule game the other is the main account. I imagine I could 1/2 and half those roles on the 2 computers.
1 odd upside is the maps are all the same between mule sessions. So after run 1 of the maps, the paths to bosses are pre-mapped in the next sessions. "have to stick to the same mode though". The down side is of course, no use of ladder rune words, the improved stash, and other ladder play perks like bigger bosses.
[paragraph below isn't about the "same map between games" mentioned above]
Been reluctant to do the plugy gaming. Haven't seen any video posted by it's players extolling "safe files" for use. So I assume it's the risk of using the plugy mods. Certainly I've seen video's on get this here, install it like this. But haven't noted any of the videos saying. "I found safe files here", "I've never had an issue here", or similar quotes to the files being pointed at. Even better still would be a consensus by plugy players on where to get safe files. Any tips of that nature would be welcome from the host.
I think a quick note about cheap 200 FCR sorc gear would help. Arachnid mesh can be hard to find, but you can get to 200 fcr with a crafted caster belt. Here's a sample set up.
Weapon: Wizard Spike(so much res) / Suicide Branch; 50 FCR
Gloves: Magefist / Trangs Gloves; 20 FCR
Armor: Skin of the Vipermagi; 30 FCR
Helm: 20 FCR circlet
Rings: 10 fcr each
That's 140 FCR base. Then, with good enough rolls, you can get 60 more with a combination of Spirit Shield, crafted caster amulet and caster belt.
Boots are whatever. I like Aldur's boots because the fire res compliments the resistances of spirit nicely, the 40% FRW is a marginal speed boost for farming, and extra life is good because dying will really slow down the farming.
Oh, and it is possible to get 200 FCR without spirit, but then Arachnid mesh is necessary. Just in case anyone is playing vanilla single player.
Simon Joyce future video bud. It's planned but solid info and tips for those who want to set up 200 fcr build;)
Do you do the /players 8 trick every time you make a new game on LK or just once and leave it like the trick you showed to switch it? I am farming it atm and using the trick but wanted to ensure I’m not waisting time by doing it each time?
M B I was testing it based on what was dropping from chests, which didn’t seem to be as much as it did when I typed /players 8 each time. Hence asking D, who runs this a lot. Thanks for the info and the snide comment.
If u have the time to pop everything in Lower Kurast on single player or battle.net i would do so most the high runes I get are not even from the super chests but come from stashes corpses etc same goes for charms jewels and occasionally gear that is of some value for example socketed or superior armors and weapons. but as stated in the video you can just focus on the super chests if you want to be way more efficient. As for me ill be making a sorceress this next ladder reset and will be farming lower kurast through too travincal for all the chests bodies stashes etc.
Hey I have done almost 1.5 - 2k runs with my Wind Druid and in my 5th or 6th run I got lucky and got a Ohm that was the first and the last .Is there a trick ?Chests around seems luckier as I got a Sur lol :):)
Does this apply to series x. Because I been doing this run for months and haven't gotten a hight rune from them. I normally farm them for gems and charms
My current map is even better than the 10/10. Just got my first Sur rune on my grind for the first enigma. keep up the good work dbrunski.
can you share where you get the drop rates? its so hard to find full games on b net now.. i need to know drop rates of just solo farming, please? can you let me know?
The way you link relevant vidoes from other videos, is Masterfly done. :-D
Dubrunski you are fucking legend. Keep a good job with D2 videos. Cheers
Hi is this for multiplayer or just single player?
is character lvl relevant for runefinding?
Glad I saw this video
It is nice guide for HR in LK, but what are the chances of getting unique/set? Is there a chance of getting something or is it very limited "choice of possible drops?" By watching you guys D2 players it makes me want to get back playing it too actually.
the Superchests themselves can not drop unique items, only magic or rare, the other popables and monsters can
Is this worth doing on closed bnet ladder? I guess its only 1 player?
Nice video!
Hey buddy! You have inspired me to get back into D2! Just got accidentally banned from bnet because of VPN so I downloaded PlugY to hop back on for now. :) Had a quick question: what do you mean by "roll" a map?
In solo mode, you can change the map by changing difficulty. The game reroll all the maps after you changed difficulty. So just make a game in hell, if it's not what you want go in nightmare or normal and come back in hell to see if the map is better.
is it normal to do almost 500 runs and only get a mal?? and a bunch of low runes?
I found a really good seed that spawns the hut of the first campfire literally next to the hut of the second campfire.
I'm gonna try running with MF now since I also need other items.
Is it worth running LK at Players 1?
Great video , thanks ! How do you change the players difficulty in single player though ??? Thanks in advance ;)
just type /players x with x=1 to 8, know that this works in pairs for drop rate, so players 1 and players 2 will be the same, 3 and 4 are the same, 5 and 6 are the same, and 7 and 8 are the same
yeah dbrunski should obviously have included this in his video lol.
what u on about lol, what is this 1-8 shite
@@mickster5859 they are talking about plugy mod command. Single player mode.
Great video as always, but please don't make a habit of the blurring. It hurt my eyes watching.
What version is this based on? And can MF adversely effect drops? I understand probability don't guarantee drop rates, but I've done 600 runs and the highest rune I've come across is Lum. (1.14d, 146%MF). Video was crazy helpful to see though!
Should note. Players 7.
Dbrunski125 where would you suggest me to farm hrs on battle.net?
One question: when you say there's 11 Sur patterns, out of how many patterns is that?
65536
so you get a sur around once in 6k chests or 1k runs or 6 hours (if done right)
What about multiplayer? What are the drop chances for players 1?
always spawns 2 points of torches or random?
Why not loot every single chest/rock etc in LK? i just did a couple of hours of farming there and found nothing in the superchests but 1 pul and mal rune from normal chests.
My advice for LK on bnet: open EVERYTHING there in full games, not just the super chests. There is probably like 100 containers in the whole area.
Yep. I found a shako in a basket in LK on bnet.
