Breaking Immunities With Masteries In 1.13c

[RyanFialcowitz]

I've recently decided to retool my modifications for 1.13c, previously I used 1.11b- but since the newer version uses newer dynamic link libraries one of my changes no longer works.

I'm trying to make it so that Cold, Fire & Lightning Masteries (Which I have altered to all lower resistances to their respective elements.) can break immunities. I previously managed to accomplish this in 1.11b in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=51936. But as stated I don't know what to change in 1.13c- anyone know? Thanks.

Thank you.

Edit
Apologies, but I'm having trouble locating 0082B3E0 & 0082B3E3. I know I need to convert them somehow. I tried as you suggested in the previous thread to subtract them from the base address, which I assume to be 750000 from your post, but it's not presenting any useable output- I need a number prefaced by 6FC or 6FD. . .

If you use ollydbg you can edit the physical file directly.

If you want to avoid that d2game.dll get it's original location in mem moved. You can download my rebased version of storm.dll here.

Storm.dll is to large to fit into it's original memory, so is take the mem d2game.dll is needed and d2game is moved into a location it fits into instead. That's kinda annoying then debugging e.tc.

I'm making the edit on 1.13c and it seems to only work for cold pierce. What is wrong?

This is what I did:

Code: Select all

Of the masteries, Cold is the only one to lower an enemies resistance.

ah okay, I misread, I thought it was the edits to enable the pierce stats to break immunities. Is this possible?

Another question. If I apply some piercing to the two other masteries, will this edit works??

This code edit, as far as I'm aware, will some skills that ordinarily couldn't break immunitities to do so. In the regular game, for some insane reason, Cold Mastery can lower an enemy's resistence to Cold- but only if that enemy is not immune. With this code edit, assuming your Cold Mastery skill is high enough, you will be to lower the enemy's resistence to the point where they can be damaged- although they will still be listed as immune. This code edit will also work with the other two masteries if you alter them to function like Cold Mastery.

Edit
I'm still having trouble locating the address' I need to change. Perhaps someone could explain how to find it or perhaps post a screenshot?

well, if someone has the edits to enable immunities breaking by the stats that you put on items, I would be interested. any version...

I believe it affects the pierce modifier, but I lack the experience to say for sure. I am unaware if the items that lower resistance use this statistic or not.

I think I have found the correct addresses, for the life of my I can't understand why people don't post what you see in the program. . .

well, I did the edit and tested. This seems to not affect the stats on items. That's why I posted here, I tested before

I did, but my system gets lots of dll relocations, so the base addresses never match, which is why I post the base address for the session

to get the correct address you do:
virtual address - base load address = RVA
then do:
proffered base laod address + RVA = preferred virtual address

this is the edit, but make sure your not editing the non-inline variant, else it won't do squat. also, iirc one of the set of item stats is the incorrect placeholder, so only one set is used by the game (which I'll check up on later)

[kidpaddle94]

yes I forgot there are two types of pierce. I tested with Hero editor and used the same group for the four pierces, I will test with the other one. ^^

edit: worked with the passive pierce stats. If it worked it's because I had level 99 cold mastery which has the passive pierce stat. That's why it only worked for cold. thank you Necrolis.

This is an interesting route to take...
I took a much easier one on my mod...
Monstats - anything over 100% becomes 95% immune instead
Skills - reduce all reduction agents (lower res..etc)
Good luck

I didn't want to start a new thread on the exact same topic so ill ask it here. I think this change makes it so both items and masteries can break immunities.

But when they do, do they work at 20% of normal for breaking immunities and once an immunity is broken just like infinity does?

Normally they work at 100% once an immunity is broken which is why I ask
