How I Farmed Diablo 2's Most Wanted Item From Scratch
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 июн 2024
- In this video I farm the runeword Enigma, Diablo 2's most sought-after item, while starting out with nothing on a completely self-found character in Diablo 2 Resurrected single-player. No trading, no multi-player, and no starting gear.

Now you have the Enigma, you can farm more efficiently.....by going back to lower kurast and opening chest!
truly the diablo experience
😂
Fuggggg lol
yeah!
😂
When you hovered your Ber over the Mageplate, I nearly screamed!
Haha sorry, couldn’t help myself 😂
Dude same. I was like CHILLLLLLL hahhaha
I started panting, too. that was nasty😂
same!
Made my A$$hole clench geez!
when you hovered the ber over the mage plate everyone watching collectively felt sick for a moment LMAO
had a panic attack when i saw he picked up the Ber first
52 hours to develop a very good SP account. Enigma, war travs, hoto, and all those juicy charms. Good commentary and sick Cid, subbing for sure.
Thanks man!
I don't know enough about D2R as I'm just now seeing this content come up on my screen but thought i'd chime in here to say that back from playing vanilla D2 all the way to LOD 1.14d,
I decided I was done. I really didn't want to go back (it was an addiction TBH) and I was curious about all these bot runs so I figured I would try one and if I get banned, good riddance.
I kid you not, I ran this bot for 3 months day and night on a dedicated machine and eventually got gear so good I only had the bot setup to pick up JAH BER or ZOD.
In 3 months of 24/7 playtime it found one Jah and one Ber.
This really helped me solidify my desire to not go back to this level of RNG scarcity ever again.
You have the patience of a saint!
I played D2:LoD every day, all day, for 18 months to grind up from my first Gul rune to my first Enigma through trading and drops. No FG, just in-game trading. I spent more time playing than trading which is why it took so long. Then once I got my Enigma on my pally I realised he was just another sorc and found it to be pointless. So I decided to run a bot. I left it running overnight doing Pindleskin and it found nothing on value. So I turned it off, uninstalled and didn't play again until D2r.
I played a lot when LOD came out then put it down when I went to college. I got back into D2 in 2007. I figured rather than grind for hours I'll just buy the gear for 10 bucks. The site even gave free runes of choice with purchases. I decked out my bowazon and quit within a week. I had nothing left to do and realized I waisted 10 bucks. I just got back into D2R and play offline nice and casual.
Always fun to see you do your crazy loot goblin runs. Brings back so much D2 nostalgia, and I realize how much I didn't know about the game back when I was playing it!
Bravo A+ ending gag was perfect, I'm really happy for you to have actually done it. love the way you geeked out on the small charm rolls. Keep it up man. This is so wholesome.
"Are Diablo 2 players inherently insane? Too much introspection... less thinking, more grinding" Lol!
That War Trav gamble was INSANE, great video.
feel like its more likely to win the lottery
I never ever got even a single unique item from gambling let alone the desired war travelers 😮😮😮
In my opnion, more insane than all the Hrs.
That was insane man... completely insane. Just recently found your channel and im loving it :)
Thanks! Glad you enjoy the videos.
Damn! Blessed you with the +774 Enigma roll for your troubles! Almost gave me a heart attack with that Ber hover... great video thanks for sharing
had to comment how LUCKY you were on the gambled war travs... epic stuff. i will be dusting off my D2R single players soon. your vids are great. keep it up!
The amount of patience you have is just simply amazing 🤯🤯🤯🤯
I abandon my search for the missing pair of sock in my tiny cabin after 2-3 tries but here you are 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Amazing challenge, well done!
Can't wait for your next adventures, you are one of the D2 players I'm most excited to see post a new video.
Thanks for the kind comment!
GG man! that was some patience! i'm also in sp and in abount 2700 hr of playtime since diablo 2 released i have 4 enigma, 2 infinity, 2 grief, dream helm and shield and much more. One time i couldn't sleep so i was up at 2 am and did some farming in the pit and a JAH rune dropped! anyway i really like your videos and i can't wait for the next. cheers
Excellent effort man, a well deserved Enigma, enjoy it. And a very well put together video.
Thank you!
Great video, man! I have also been through the dispair that is the Lower Kurast grind. I did 5,000 runs. For anyone interested, these were my results (yes, I actually found an Ohm on my very first run)
1 - Ohm
680 - Ist
714 - Gul
1155 - Lem
1192 - Lem
1233 - Lem
1321 - Ist
1335 - BER
1381 - Gul
1754 - Lem
1889 - Gul
1923 - Lem
1967 - Um
2011 - Mal
2050 - Um
2214 - Mal
2246 - Pul
2433 - Lem
2517 - Pul
2558 - Pul
2590 - Gul
2936 - Gul
3074 - Mal
3079 - Um
3354 - Mal
3469 - Pul
3602 - Mal
3607 - Lem
3856 - Vex
3882 - Um
3931 - Gul
4296 - Lem
4333 - Pul
4357 - Lem
4369 - Ohm
Also, I used a sorceress with max fcr and high running speed, so my runs would have been quite a bit faster than yours. Still, such a boring grind 😅 I also ended up having to cube some runes to get to Enigma, but it's just what you have to do on single player 🙃
Interesting that you didn’t find a single sur while I found 5 (ok I guess only 3 were from LK). D2 rng is really random.
Thanks for sharing!
May I ask you how much time you spend?
@@kevinlittle9198 It's a while ago, so I'm not sure. But a rough estimate is 25 seconds per run including load times. That adds up to about 35 hours of mindless grinding 😅 With the help of a lot of podcasts to make it bearable ☺️
I've mostly been playing with my Pitzerker for the last few weeks, but this video made me want to farm L.K. with my sorc. I already have Enigma, Infinity, and two Griefs, and a 6-Ist Phase Blade, but I'd like to get some more runewords. I did 18 minutes of farming yesterday with no luck. Today, I played for another 18 minutes on P-7 and I found a Pally Combat skiller, a Gul, and a Vex.
Nice Channel!
I absolutely love this video! I’ve been farming using my single player offline characters and I can totally relate to what you did here. Some of your comments had me busting out laughing 😂. And I have never found a Rainbow Facet.
i found couples of those but you know whats funnier? I NEVER FOUND A RAVENFROST. EVER. i only got them from trades Lul
That was probably THE BEST unique gamble I've ever seen lol. Grats on this new chllange of yours! It was fun!
Thanks! The gamble was crazy for sure.
Gambled a SOJ once in the first months of D2R, that was also pretty dope!
You are a badass, man. I could never do that much grinding in such a short time. Congrats on the enigma, you totally deserve it.
This video is PERFECT! What a beast and thanks for the quick efficient editing. Awesome stuff.
Thanks, glad you liked it!
what an insane project! man I can't imagine the ups and downs from the bad luck streaks to gambling WT on the 4th try :D
That War Trav is a thing of beauty from gambling haha. great video though. You've given me more motivation to finish my enigma grind on single player.
Nice vid man. I was more amazed from that war trav gamble lol. GGs!
The cool gambles always gets me because I never expect anything!
no trading and no fg. this is it! thank you for the nice highlight reel and process.
Been waiting for a new upload!. Love your content. Thank you for the videos bro
Thank you!
When you picked the up the Ber I had a heart attack lol. Great video as always
This video just made me play D2R again. Was playing the mod Project Diablo 2, but i kinda missed the base game a lot in my subconscious. Its about time we put our precious freetime into countless disappointing runs. Good work!
Wow after 3600 runs combined getting Egnima is crazy. Sick video man. Ive never played in a none trading league but now I feel the pain of ssf players and some even gets fully geared in season time which is even more crazy!!!
doing ssf online 10 times harder.
-no players X
-no fixed maps (and no rerolling maps to get 'good' map as a consequence)
-load times worse
-hello failed teleports
-no failsafe S&Q on HC.
All your D2 videos are great, including this one it was very nice to watch keep up the good work
Thanks a lot!
gz, I am on the same journey with my paladin in SP. 1xBer and 3xSur in stash, also 15%ed 3s MP waiting.
Just wanted to add that I have found some wild stuff in P8 LK, for example 27 Mara from a log, a few shakos, arach from a corpse, 3x pala combat sk and the runes (Ber from basket + Vex from regular chest) to make a 40 hoto & coh. I thought Sur runes were my thing as I've gotten like 6 or 7 in total.
You have proven yourself and earned a subscriber! 😁
This just goes to show how brutal single player is on this game rofl, very well done bro!
I did the same soul-crushing thing on Plugy SP while I was living abroad during COVID, but on a 200% FCR Sorc, so the LK runs were significantly faster. I was planning to build an infinity next but couldn't farm 2 more BERs so I just enjoyed the Enigma and made a pitzerker. Good times !
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Great post!
Thanks!
That's was good to watch , I enjoy it , Thanks Goblin !
Thanks! Glad you liked it
Bro you are a legend for this vid... that's some dedicated grinding.
crazy to think that this was once considered fun gameplay
Love your videos; THANK YOU for the awesome content!
Thanks! Glad you like them
21:44 made me panic inside haha. This was always I challenge I wanted to do, but didn't know how feasible it was! Good to get perspective on it!
Oh my goodness so entertaining. You have so much patience. Great video 😂😂
Thanks, glad you liked it!
great video! thansk for your work, im still slowly building my SSF offline account, one day i will also build an enigma!
Thanks! I hope the runes will start dropping for you soon
boom, this concept is kind of close to what i have planned for my SP stuff, nice video man!
Thanks TS! Looking forward to see what you do. Did you restart in sp after the corrupted file or did you manage to recover anything?
i did restart, but now keeping the saved folder all the time, you learn the hardway some times lol :D@@zarfen
39 hours!--a 40-hour work week. Incredible. I salute you, Zarfen. Cheers!
Awesome video! thanks for sharing this experience, you are so strong mentally! haha
Incredible! I just love videos like these, where you just keep grinding, even tho it's hopeless. I would quit after 50 runs... Max.... 😄👍😎🔥
Solid effort, I commend the grind
Insane work. ❤ Really nice video!
Thanks!
your content is very pleasing. i enjoyed this video - subbed
Thanks! Appreciate the kind words
You are an absolute madman. I couldnt do that grind
Man those WT's gamble is crazy ! Gg you are a machine. I recently made my first ssf enigma by cubing bers I found during farming.. 5 bers and not a single jah, my heart broke when I cubed 2 bers tho
“There goes my Infinity runes” *Transmute*
I LOVE badass d2 challenges like this. More please
Insane ^^ I only ever made an Enigma (and other high level runewords) once, and only thanks to grinding with a friend and trading for a very long time (months)
I respect the grind! GG
Crazy to think that small charm alone could have fully geared your hammerdin online. Solo is a grind, but I love it! Grats on the grind!
amazing and dedicated work done
That small charm makes this whole project worth it! Crazy find
"and it took wayyy longer than expected..." this is why we love your content, you do the unthinkable.
really great vid, small sub count but big sub count quality. Keep it up
Thanks for the kind comment!
What a wonderful video! I love you way you used those low level runewords and a hammerdin, your recipe is almost identical to my old ladder start character. Dual spirits, lore and stealth. I actually prefer the dual spirits than a hoto and spirit, its 1 less skill but better FHR and mana etc.
I also think you did the grind wrong. 🙂 of course LK chests are great, but my ladder technique from the old days was to run river of flame with the hammerdin.
Its a lvl 85 area, so can drop hi runes no probs and is a very easy access area with big ooen spaces for the hammerdin. Basically i would just rack up max kills there and get godly loot, including hi runes, just from the monsters. Remeber they increased the chance of HR drops from monsters, to stop people farming countess and chests.
Anyway from your 30 hours of farming you would have got tons of exp, much better loot, and more hi runes if you just did river of flame runs and kill everything. And it is reasonably pleasant running that area with a hammerdin, much nicer than 1000 LK grinds 😎
Great vid... why is lower kurast so good for runes??? Is there something particular about the chests there?
There’s something called “super chests” that drop more items on average than regular chests, and with a good map in LK you can have 6 of them very close together. And since chests are influenced by the players setting you get a lot of players 8 drops in a very short amount of time.
I’m not a expert but if you search “lower Kurast guide” or similar I’m sure there a better explanation
wow what a video, absolute dedication to getting this video made lol
That was a really great video enjoyed watching the journey ! Now...organise that inventory please ❤😅
Thank you!
Haha I actually haven’t played the character at all while I was editing this video and I am dreading having to sort through and organize all the stash tabs after the mess he made 😅
The crafted fcr belt is a great tip!!
Awesome video man!
Thanks! Glad you liked it
Deserves more likes. Shits crazy doing solo
bro this video motivated me to go back to my SSF pally on single player who's doing the same thing. First run, sur. only found a ber and gul so far before on this char.
Nice!
Diablo is trying to lure you back in.
Nice job and congrats! I bet you were bored out of your mind but worth it in the end lol
It's fun, that our normal gameplay(without trading or changing equip) at times when D2 was released, now is a challenge )
This was awesome !
Great run! D2 players embody the definition of insanity perfectly: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
i stopped playing d2 mid through act 3 campaign...never seen engame for myself, i dont know what all those runes and charms and unique do
but dang i watched this video and i like it =)
Personally i think the hoto helped you a lot & the runs would have taken many more hours if not for you making it. Just my opinion.. but I am of the mindset that improving your character is by far the best investment possible, so take that for what it's worth. Very good video. I really enjoyed the editing involved with the bonus drops; it was so seamless that you don't even notice it's there. Very good. Thank you for posting. I will be watching more.
Ciao~
You know, I was so focused on the runes but you’re probably right. I might not have been able to farm travincal without it!
Thanks, glad you liked it!
I did 1619 LK runs on p7 and countless cows runs on p3 to find and cube runes to reach enigma runeword in SP plugy. Nice job man.
such a good video, thx for this
Congrats mate 😊
Thanks!
Great video! If you would re do it, would you do not travincal runs? Focus on terror zones or same approach?
Thanks!
It was a nice change of pace to do some travincal. Depends on how much you want to focus purely on the runes. TZs are great for variety but not as “reliable” for runes
If I had a new character and really wanted to focus on enigma ASAP I’d do as much LK as I could handle before going crazy
@@zarfen makes sense, your a machine tho in these videos keep it up
this guy's voice is just so soothing
I can't believe I used to spam runs like this too... granted it was an online toon but good lord It's hard to think i'd spend months doing this. Loved doing it though! Nothing felt better than making my own farmed enigma spirit and hoto when I was 13 during summer break back in 2003/2004 - Also to answer your question if you are crazy. All of us Diablo 2 players are crazy to farm the way we do. But somehow we have fun doing it. Loved the vid :)
Gz! I've done that grind years ago on vanilla D2 and it is as painful as described, maybe even worst 😆
But recently I've started D2R from scratch and I I've been insanely lucky, I just found both a Jah and a Ber off of Pindleskin on my first char, blizz sorc, in the span on just 2 days (maybe a total of 4-5 hrs) right after finishing Hell.
At least I'm happy I don't have to farm LK for now 🤣
Damn 😳 congrats, that’s awesome. And from ol’ pindle too!
that war trav gamble was insane
I felt my heart skip a beat when you picked up the Ber first, christ alive
Haha sorry, couldn’t help myself
Great comitment bro, i suggest you do 1000 mephisto runs next to gear up even more :)
man i feel for you such a grind
The grind is real!
Gratz on the enigma, 1 off perfect roll
Dude you're crazy, but very fun to watch!
That was really nice of you to show me why i never got any further than a single Sur with this strategy. I probably did like 5% of the amount of runs you did. Just don't ever joke with a Ber hovering over the armour again please :(
such a great job
My luck when u dragged the wrong rune . i kmow i wouldf messed that up n put it first lol. Great vid . im anewbie to diablo 2 n the patience n discipline is top notch!!!!!!
I made sure to completely remove my finger from the left mouse button just in case! 😁
I just got the platinum trophy for diablo 3 on my ps5, and now this has me wanting to finally try out diablo 2 for the first time
NICE GAMBLIN LUCK BRO!!!
The LK layout is really good!
I made sure to roll a good map since I was going to spend a lot of time here, but it actually didn’t take as long as I expected to get good maps in LK.
That war trav gamble was insane....
I myself am not a huge fan of LK runs, though they have proven to be very useful. I personally love farming Trav on a hork barb. For magic find and for rune finding. Its so quick and the variety of loot is so good.
Just made a new SSF sorc a few days ago. I'm level 89 and I haven't found or crafted a single + sorc skills amulet. I'm still rocking my FCR amulet from level 3. I've also not found a single white monarch in the entire time. I'm just rocking my Ancient's Pledge kite shield still. I've never had such bad luck with a character roll in a season.
5:41 - depending on loading time switching acts to repair your staff might be a good idea, for example in act V Larzuk is just next to waypoint. But that's just a small optimization that doesn't make sense, because you're probably spending much more time on other stuff, not sure why I brought that up :) I also did some LK runs with Pala, but it's nothign compared to what I've done with Sorc. If you do it with Sorc then you probably hate doing it with any other char even more. Respect!
wtf, i didnt even do 100 Lower kurast runs in D2R and ive found 2 Ber, 1 Ohm, 2 Vex and i still think that im unlucky with loot. respect for your patience and will
“Less thinking more grinding” needs to be a quote on a motivational poster for us D2 players 😂
If this channel ever does merch, you just gave me a great idea 😂
Dude i had to ctrl-w at that wartrav roll.
To put things in perspective, i still havent found a single soj in 20 years+ of gaming.
That is the thing about this game. There are many items I have never found in this game. Yesterday I decided to make my first ladder hardcore character - a bit late compare to most people. And as I went through Act five normal a unique ring dropped. I just went on and forgot about it, so when I went back to town I realised it was a Soj. I could almost not believe my eyes.
