The Phrozen Keep

Hello! I have started a new wiki for ESR just 2 days ago! You can find it here: https://d2esr.fandom.com The old wiki is still available via the wayback machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20201020203414/http://miyoshino.la.coocan.jp/eswiki/?FrontPage The old attack speed calc also still works: htt...

The Sorc elemental masteries: What does "+55% extra mastery for every base point" mean? So far every point into it only improves my +Lit Skill Damage by 4%. Whats stopping me from investing into a synergy with more than +4% to the skill I use? You get an extra 55% lit/fire/cold skill damage if ther...

Realms must not be discussed here. But let's just say I know it and the guys there.

Is it just me or do you also think that there are too many "current" versions of Eastern Sun? We have the 4.1N community patch, the original R6E by tsuru, the 1.12 version by stabby and even a D2SE plugin. Is there any chance that we will return to one single version in the future? I have like 3 ins...

Equipping two items with the same aura on equip will stack, meaning that their levels will be added. Having too many different auras at the same time will cause other nearby players to crash. If you use an aura yourself and wear an item with the same aura on equip they will not stack, you will have ...

Auras on Equip profit from Synergies, this also works for mercs. Holy Freeze is a bad example because its level is, as Lucifer666 already pointed out, much too low.

Concentration and Annihilation can profit from Might on Act 2 mercs, which adds a nice bonus.

First rule about the bnet:
Do not talk about the bnet on the PK-forums.

Welcome anyway

Let me guess: The Armor you were wearing had +x to Strength on it, exaclty 20 more than the one you were trying to equip. This is a normal behavior and not specific to Eastern Sun. Whenever you are trying to replace a piece of Armor it will fail if changing the gear will lower your stats below the r...

I got it working under Windows 8 just two days ago. Look at the file's preferences and check the compatibility settings. Let Windows determine the best settings and it should run. Once you have a working installation you can just copy it onto other computers and it will work. But on each machine you...

I stopped crafting amulets when I realized that +3 all skills from mara's kaleidoscope is better for me. - being unique it can have aura forging - all skills works on lightning mastery - nova is already level 100 - I don't have need for further oskills (I'd go for rares anyway if I needed those as ...

I didn't do much crafting and those that I did usually were not good enough to wear unless for levelling. I never wore a crafted item on any of my characters after about level 80. Nothing worth keeping, let alone worth wearing. I can't even begin to imagine how many materials you use for crafting, s...

Your CD is "too new" for 1.10 to work.

I remember there being some mini CD ISO which you could mount to imitate the correct LoD CD. I never needed it though so someone else might know more about it.

They're not supposed to be in the es300s folder. Again: - there is your normal installation folder - INSIDE the normal installatino folder there should be the es300s folder created by the ES installer //edit: I finished uploading the file, see my last post for instructions. If this doesn't work I'm ...

Frankly, I have no idea what's wrong. Either you have a version of Diablo 2 which is simply incompatible with the mod or you are doing something wrong and we can't figure out what it is. I'm currently uploading a file which contains a working installation of Diablo 2 - LoD along with Eastern Sun 4.1...

A great trick to conserve older versions is to backup every file in the D2 folder except for the really big .mpq files. If you want to change the versions, just copy the files and overwrite the others. This also makes sure that you can restore a clean installation, just delete everything except for ...

You're welcome :) We're in dire need of new players since the community is so small. So we're always eager to help as long as people ask nicely. Don't worry, installing mods can be quite confusing and while the errors in your installation might be your errors, rest assured that you are not the first...

I´m driving crazy here... Damn, it´s just not working, you guys try to help me, but i can´t fix it... I´ve been so excited about this mod :/ I installed D2 completely new, after installing it´s already in patch 1.12. Can you tell us how exactly you install the game? A fresh installation from the CD...

Whenever I have that problem it's either a problem with the graphics driver (rarely) or just the wrong graphics mode. Try changing between DirectDraw, Direct3D and 3Dfx to see if it helps, normally it solves the problem.

Well, I remember running into problems when installing the mod and the game a while back, so I listed what I did. Uninstall Diablo II and reinstall from scratch, then install patch 1.10 . After that, install Eastern Sun R6E full and then the 4.1N Community patch . This will provide you with a comple...

Looks like you did something wrong when installing. Did you leave the \es300s in place when installing the mod? Are you starting it via the launcher instead of the normal .exe?

Nostalgia

Tastes differ

Here's an apparently working download for the 2.3 beta of eastern sun http://www.fileplanet.com/135429/130000/fileinfo/Eastern-Sun-2.3-Public-Beta-1 This should be before the new skills like time stop were added. I'm not sure which version it is, but I remember that there were times when mobs with h...

Looks like a bot. The profile contains a web link to an mmo. The bot sees a forum post with "mmo" in it, registers and adds a harmless answer like "I don't know why I didn't try that. thx". I'll report it as spam, let's see what happens.

I agree that the current system is kind of broken. My first character always struggles to keep his or her mana up and I end up drinking way more potions than I can find, let alone afford. This feels a bit frustrating. The result is that for the first 10-20 Levels I invest ALL OF MY POINTS INTO INTEL...

Xaphan, I read that you plan to do at least three balancing patches before releasing Nightmar eand Hell difficulties. I know there's quite a lot to balance at the moment, but do you really think it's a good idea to divert so much time and effort into balancing before the whole content is out? What m...
