You got me super-scared about items "poofing". What would happen in cases where you, for example, oblivion to duping received a duped rune then used the said rune to make a runeword, could your item poof out of existence after such a "server cleanup"? :O I mean, I was using some external programs (in og/legacy D2) for quick character access/management before and I know for sure that in those programs you can actually see an ID of entire item and all it's parts (i.e. if you put a jewel inside an item you can see item's ID but also that specific jewel's ID as well)...

FoH, Avenger, Ranger (Bowadin)? I did have an idea of making a "Beacon of Nurture" kinda build, probably Paladin but could also be a Barb because of dual wielding and BO (in your case Pala part since that's what you are asking) and completely inverse roles of player character and a Merc -- with Merc being the main/only damage dealer and player being his support (would probably still choose Act 5 Merc for that). Sooo basically you take, for example, a Paladin and stack max of support/defensive auras you can get to boost your Merc then just run around/behind him and heal him (maybe using Holy Bo ..read more

Though do feel free to check if both of you still each have a copy of it in a few days or so, seeing how there should be mechanisms preventing that. Assuming they didn't turn those off by now as well to shave more server cost off D2. :/ @Lanceor Please do update if the item does poof or not. I've been trading with reckless abandon in D2R assuming duping wasn't possible, but if duping is a real possibility I'll be trading with a bit more caution from now on If there really is a confirmed dupe method in D2R, thank you for not sharing it Schnorki. Well, there has been more than one since l ..read more

Yes, it's a known bug but I can't remember when that top bar stops restarting. I think the high 80s? EDIT: After doing to double-checking it looks like it stops clearing back once you hit lvl 93. That exp bar reflects correctly on my 91 sorc, but not my 94 paladin. I do not currently have a lvl 92 or 93 character to verify with. Statistics: Posted by Knappogue — 3 hours ago ..read more

I've come across a strange game behaviour after noticing that my level 93 barbarian stopped showing any XP progress on the bottom of the screen for quite some time now. When I checked the character screen, its XP bar on the top is almost full. Is this a known bug? Statistics: Posted by bigbikefan — 3 hours ago ..read more

In simplest and intentionally cryptic terms: Yes, you may have accidentally duped your anni. No, his post is not a reliable set of instructions on how to dupe stuff as it is missing the critical piece. No, I won't fill in that piece and odds are Lanceor has no clue what that missing step is as it wasn't intentional or likely even noticed. But yeah, it can happen by pure coincidence/accident. Or he/you did indeed simply mistake a different anni for the same one. Beyond that, owning a dupe generally isn't (or traditionally wasn't) grounds for being banned. If it were, something like 99.9% of t ..read more
