A †AD †
Ancient Decipherer †A cubing material to decipher (identify) an Ancient Scroll. Also called Decipherer or AD. 8 Ancient Decipherers makes a Dragon Stone. (Say a dime if a Dragon Stone is a dollar.) Ancient Decipherers are also often used in cheap cube recipes. Ancient Scroll †A cubing Material used for Secret Recipes. There exist 50 Secret Recipes and 50 Ancient Scrolls, and each recipe requires corresponding scroll. Ancient Scrolls need to be deciphererd before using. (See Ancient Decipherer.) Anvil Stone †Anvil Stones are cubing materials used for Forging. They are made from "4 Dragon Stones + 1 Perfect Gem", and never dropped by monsters. Aura Stone †Aura Stones are cubing materials used for Aura Forging. Aura Forging adds an aura to an amulet. There exist 7 kinds of Aura Stones, which are made from the highest Unique Class Amulets of 7 classes. Automod †Automods are the new feature added in D2 Expansion. Similar to staffmods, but adds other properties than individual skill bonus. The all resist bonus on Paladin shields and the bow skilltab bonus on Amazon bows are the automods, for example. Unique items and set items can't have automods. C †Cast Delay †Some spells can't be cast for a specific period after you cast that spell. This is a restriction to prohibit spamming that spell, mainly to avoid the graphic lag. Also known as Casting Deley, Cast Timer, Spell Timer, etc. See also Next Delay. Some times it seems you can cast these skills without delay, two meteors in a row, for example. But one of them is a fake which is displayed only at the client side, and has no actual effect. In ES, Cast Delays are generally eased. But when you play multiplayer games, please keep it in mind that these skills may cause a heavy lag for other players. Charged Skills †
Crystal †Crystals are new items that are used to cube Uber Organs and Kanji Runes. They are found in Ores which serve as a container for them. Crystals are extracted by cubing the ore with itself. More information here. Crystal Can †The Crystal Can is one of the stockers, which can be purchased from Gheed. It stores crystals and keeps them organized. Crystals are stored as a number of points and may be extracted in chipped quality (1 point) and normal quality (100 points) by using the Can Opener (also available from Gheed). More information here. CtC Spell †See Procing Spell. D †D-Stone †
D-Stoning †D-Stoning is enhancing an item through the use of Dragon Stones and other cubing materials. D-stoning recipies add beneficial modifiers to the item, and also adds +2-4 (2 for weapons, 3 for body armor/helms/shields, 4 for other gears) to the item's level requirement. D-stoning recipies can be found at the ES Database. Devil's Food †
Devil's Foods are the trigger item to cause the World Event in ES. In LoD, the trigger item is Stones of Jordan, and in the older versions of ES, The One Rings. Devil's Foods can be made of any Unique Rings and Amulets via Rerolling Orb, and much cheaper than these rarest Unique Rings. (Diablo Clone is toned down in ES, both in life and drop, so a cheaper trigger item is used.)
Diablo Clone †Diablo Clone (AKA Uber Diablo) is the special monster spawned in the World Event. He looks like green colored Diablo and uses the same attacks and spells, but is much stronger. Diminishing Return †It generally means the output per input which decreases as the input increases. ((110*level) * (max-min))/(100 * (level+6)) + min
In the skill pages of this Wiki, the important diminishing return values are fully listed. (Even 1% skill IAS of Fanaticism and Annihilation can affect the IAS breakpoint, for example.) Dragon Stone †Dragon Stones are cubing materials dropped by monsters in every area of the game. They are used for a large number of cube recipies, and are also used for d-stoning existing items. DualMax Weapon †A DualMax weapon is a rare weapon with both Screaming ((3/clvl) +3-300% Enhanced Max Damage)and Fool's ((2.5/clvl) +2-250 To Max Damage) mods. Unlike straight Enhanced Damage %, these properties cannot be dstoned, hence items that have both mods are considered very valuable. The word 'DualMax' was coined by Goeido, and he is the rightful copyright owner. E †EIAS †EIAS is an abbreviation for 'effective increased attack speed'. IAS granted by items is subject to diminishing returns, and is converted into EIAS in the game using a diminshing return formula. Skill-based IAS and weapon speed modifiers are not subject to dimishing returns, which can make it possible to reach attack speeds unatainable with item IAS. Using the following table, you can find out how much effective IAS you gain from items. If you then subtract the WSM and add the amount of IAS gained from skills, you will have your total effective IAS, which can be compared with an EIAS breakpoints table for the skill you are using to tell you your effective attack speed.
ES †
F †Fire Skills †The term Fire Skill in +X to Fire Skill Levels (the mod on Magefists, etc.) means the skills that deal fire damage, and includes following skills. Amazon: Fire Strike, Pyre Javelin, Fire Wall, Immolation Arrow, Exploding Arrow Note: Dragon Tail and Corpse Explosion are included although most people don't think they are fire skills. Forging †Forging is an item enhancement frequently used as well as D-Stoning. Forging adds much better bonus than D-Stoning and no penalty, but you can apply Forging only once per item. You can remove the applied Forging from the item to apply another Forging. Most part of the materials are refunded. G †Gem Can †The Gem Can is one of the stockers, which can be purchased from Gheed. It stores gems for future use, and helps keep them organized. Gems are stored as a number of points, corresponding to how many chipped gems it would take to cube them, and may be extracted in any quality (if sufficient points exist) using the Can Opener (also available from Gheed). H †Hamachi †See the Hamachi page. HFD †Half Freeze Duration.
HoD Run †HoD is an abbreviation of Halls of the Dead, in Dry Hills, Act 2. The super unique Pantherwoman nearby the Horadric Cube chest drops a Forging Hammer (50% chance in Normal, 75% chance in NM and 100% chance in Hell). Killing her repeatedly is an effective way to collect Dragon Stones, and called HoD Runs. According to a bug report, the chest room can be generated without the unique Pantherwoman in some very rare cases. In such cases, you will need to enable the map regeneration so that D2 generates a new valid map. J †Jewelry †Jewelry may be a confusing word for non English speaking people. Jewelry usually means the accessories with jewels, not the jewels themselves. So Jewelry means Rings and Amulets in D2, and Jewels are not Jewelry. Jewelry is an uncountable noun and cannot be used in plural. ("Jewelries" is wrong.) K †Kanji Rune †Kanji Runes are the highest 14 runes which use Chinese characters. They can't be dropped by monsters, but can be cubed from a Null Rune and crystals. Knuckle †Knuckles are the new weapon class added in patch R3D, which use the bare-handed attack animation. They have a very short range, but the animation speed of the bare-handed attack is pretty fast. 2H knuckles also exists.
L †Light Radius †This mod makes your sight blighter and yourself more noticeable for monsters. If the value is negative, your sight gets darker and yourself gets less noticeable. Giving a negative Light Radius to melee mercenaries makes them less aggressive and live long. Light Radius on an item is capped at +11 and lower capped at -5. According to the Arreat Summit, more than +5 Light Radius is meaningless because the default Light Radius is 13 yard and the possible Light Radius in the game is 18 yard. Even if this description is true, I believe it works up to +8 Light Radius because all radii are internally multiplied by 2/3 in D2 (i.e. +1 radius stands for +2/3 yard). LR †
M †Marrowwalk Bug †
Mod †
Monster Level †
Multi-Stocker †The multi-stocker is one of the Stockers which is used for storing cubing materials, including Maple Leaves, Dragon Stones, Decipherers, and Organs. The stored quantity of each item is listed in the stocker's description. Note that D-stones are stored as 8 decipherers, and cost 8 decipherers to withdraw. N †Naraku †
Next Delay †Next Delay is an internal parameter of skills like Cast Delay. If a skill with Next Delay damages an enemy, it doesn't take more damage from that skill for a specific period. For example, Shock Web has a Next Delay of 25 frames (1 second). Null Rune †Null Rune is needed to cube Kanji runes. It can be dropped or made from Wo Rune + Full Rejuv pot but it cannot be downgraded to Wo. It can be stored in Rune Stocker. O †Ore †Ores serve as containers for crystals. All monsters have a chance to drop an ore, but some bosses have a better chance to drop an ore with particular crystals. An ore first needs to be identified in town or with a Scroll of Identify, and then cubed with itself to extract crystals. Once all crystals are extracted, an ore has no further use. More information here. Organ †Organs are cubing materials dropped by monsters. Specific monsters have roughly 1/100 ~ 1/200 chance to drop a specific organ. Used for Tinkering and other recipes. Also known as "monsters' body parts".
The following materials are NOT organs:
Oskill †Oskill means the skill point bonus that works for any character classes. "O" isn't the number zero, but is the letter "O". There have been made several assumpitions what "O" means, an abbreviation of "off-class skill" for example, but the Arreat Summit doesn't refer to its derivation. "+X to All Skill Levels" bonus can increase the skill level of an oskill, but the class specific bonuses like "+X to Sorceress Skill Levels" can't. Therefore, All Skill bonus is more precious than Class Skill bonus, especially in ES, where various oskill items are available. Recently it proved the individual skill bonuses like "+X to Fire Ball (Sorceress Only)" also WORK for other classes as long as the character has the oskill of that skill. Oskill bonus is capped at 3 for the original class it belongs to. According to the Arreat Summit, this is an intentional limitation. It can be confusing that this limitation is not per item but per character. For example, if a Barbarian equips three items with oskill BO, the cap is not 9 but still 3. In LoD, rares are no match for uniques, sets and runeworded items. But sometimes rares can be indeed godly in ES, thanks to the suffixes of useful oskills and auras. Oskill suffixes (of Skill Master) are found at Suffixes page of ES database. P †PK †
PLR †Poison Length Reduced.
PM †Private Message. An e-mail like communication method used in PK. PMH †Prevent Monster Heal.
Procing Spell †Procing Spells are spells that are triggered when you are hit by a monster or when you hit/attack a monster. "6% Chance to Cast Level 5 Fire Ball On Striking", for example. Also known as CtC spells (CtC is an abbreviation of "Chance to Cast").
CtC suffixes (of Fire Ball, etc.) are found at Suffixes page of ES database. R †Reroll †Transmuting junk items into a new item, like cubing 3 Magic Rings into a Magic Amulet in the original D2. The name comes from "rolling the dice again". S †Staffmod †Staffmods are the random bonus to individual skills on specific items. Staves are spawned with Sorceress' staffmods, for example. Unique items and set items can't have staffmods. A staffmod adds +1-3 To a skill, and an item can have up to 3 staffmods. In ES, staffmods are a bit screwed up, to avoid another more important problem. Please see these two FAQs for details. Stocker †Stockers are the items to store multiple items in 1x1 space. They are implemented for Mac users who can't use the multiple stash of PlugY, but also useful for Windows users. Also useful for trading dozens of gems, etc.
T †Tournament †A competition among Diablo II single players, introduced by diabloii.net SPF members. Usually some restrictions, special scoring rules and the playing term are determined in advance. The host player opens a dedicated thread in the forum. The participants declare their entry there, and report their score and stats by updating the character table. "How do we know if someone is cheating?" "We're all adults and we're on the honor system here." - Metropolis Man U †Uber Diablo †See Diablo Clone. Uber Organs †Uber Organs are used in certain tinkering recipes. They can't be dropped by monsters. They are cubed from crystals instead. Unique Stone †Unique Stones are the cubing materials Anya gives as the reward of rescuing her. You can make a unique item by a Unique Stone and a no socket white weapon or armor. Like Charsi's imbue, superior and low-quality items can also be used, but unlike imbue, ethereality is gone. Untwinked †Twinking is giving a low-level character items found or created by a high-level character, in order to beef them up. Playing untwinked means restricting yourself to using items found by your character, without trading or twinking, and without using any items from the shared stash. V †Vanilla †"Vanilla LoD" means the original LoD with no MOD installed. This is the association of the plain ice-cream with no special flavor being called "vanilla ice-cream". The original LoD is also called as "Plain LoD", "Unmodded Game", etc. W †World Event †The realm (Battle Net) only event implemented in the first season of LoD 1.10 Ladder. Randomly the message "Diablo walks on earth" is displayed with an earthquake, and the first super unique monster you encounter turns into the Diablo Clone. WSM †Weapon Speed Modifiers affect the speed at which a weapon can attack. After applying diminishing returns to your item-based IAS, the WSM is subtracted from your EIAS. A positive WSM can therefore make much larger amounts of IAS necessary to reach a high attack rate, while a negative WSM can greatly reduce your need for IAS. Typically, weapons with high WSMs have higher damage per attack to make up for their slower attack rate, while faster low-WSM weapons do less damage. Since skill-based IAS is not subject to diminishing returns, it is possible to make up for a low WSM weapon by using a skill that grants IAS. You can find the WSMs of all weapons in ES on the weapons page at the ES database. |
