120 fRw, not fhr.

5 walls was to prevent spamming in game. but I removed it (now its completely banned) because bone wall hp scales with difficulty, so theyre very tanky in hell. lld is supposed to be played in normal, so in regular settings they would die in any 1 hit. but ind2pk theyre nearly unkillable.

theres also no sorb items in lld. magical dmg is extremely reduced given the correct gears and max res, so allowing max resist essentially kills all mages.

the no dr vs melee rule was to give a chance to melee when playing as a hdin, which makes the matchup virtually unwinnable for the melee players.

rules come from the jsp lld'ing community, which have been around since... 2006?

4 walls has always been standard
+max res has ALWAYS been banned, no exception
OK 150 fhr cap is what I saw then? which is also still not even a breakpoint
dual spirits kinda makes sense, doesn't really specify integer or %
either way, if youre using dual spirit on din, its a fail build and you should feel bad

theres no fhr cap, read correctly the rules. theyre faster RUN/WALK caps, not faster HIT recovery.

theres no %sorb in lld, it doesnt exist. only flat sorb that exist is from spirit (8 magic dmg absorb).

regarding max resist, yeah it was always banned when I played, n oexceptions. but I guess they felt ww barb had a very hard matchup vs a class that could teleport, so they decided to help them out? i dunno the reasoning. i left he lld scene for like 6 years.

double spirit is very common for hammerdins vs necro, its not a fail build. especially since using a scepter and charge doesnt work well vs. necros. good lib scepters are very hard to ocme by, so people just using a spirit.

Thanks for participating guys!!!

GD guys!

Good duels! Fun fun :)
@Wulf

I saw 2 frw caps then, reporting to it to the department of redundancy department D:<
120/150? doesnt make sense. My zon is both bowa and java. As every d2pk zon pretty much, so 150.

yes I know lld sorb doesnt exist minus integer spirit, just saying allowing +max res on any, you might as well create sorb lld items.

d2jsp rules are NOT for d2pk. those are poor mans accommodation, we have access to high stats here

I agree with this statement. However for now we don't have many viable items to make competitive builds other than bowzon/sorc.

I think with time we will come to forge our own GM list as we get more builds. But surely, d2jsp is a great place to start (for like the prayer limitation / slow % / no insight on ES sorcs).

Gold has been awarded.
