@Valheru8083 years agoHearing those dolls panting as they run up has always filled me with dread 224
@
@ProtoZealott3 years agoWhen they said they were remaking D2 accurately, I wasn't expecting them to also include the random Dial-Up disconnects. But sure enough, the true number one killer is random crashes and disconnects. 121
@
@MattMeerkat463 years agoEveryone has at least one hard learning experience from the dolls. Especially the jump from normal to higher difficulties where the increased explosion damage ramps up dramatically 145
@
@michaelguenther71053 years agoAs a summonmancer I absolutely love dolls and death lords. They make wonderful revives, hit hard and manage to keep up even without teleport. 33
@
@saphricpcgaming51823 years ago Biggest thing I learned from this video is never to make a HC character. 34
@
@yoober.3 years agoHaven't played Diablo in decades and walked into Durance of Hate in hardcore NM without a care in the world, forgetting about how deadly undead stygians were. Rip my first HC char XD 101
@
@delix3 years agoI gotta give special mention to the cat spear throwers in act 5. They have 100% pierce and do quite a bit of damage. Always fun to hit the wp for a shenk run to load into 1/4 health left through all your summons as a summon Necro before being able to do anything. ...26
@
@scoobydoo9363 years agoNo.1 Undead Stygian Dolls, its always a dance on the knifes edge, at least on hardcore. The only monster type that makes me nerveous. 57
@
@Airez903 years agoI did not know that the dolls blew up, that explains a lot of "oh shit" moments 32
@
@MikeRomulus3 years ago#7, according to Arreat Summit, they also has a chance to deal magic damage, which I'm guessing is a proc that's on top of their physical attack. 7
@
@StriKe_jk3 years agoI give a honorable mention to javelin thrower, they do pretty good damage per hit, have an insane hit rate, and piercing! A pack of them with some modifiers can surprise kill defensive minion necros because their javelins will pierce through all your minions right in your face. ...10
@
@jonathanfield38413 years agoAlready knew Undead Stygian Dolls were #1. Going through the game and they surprised tf out of me on my Hardcore NM paladin 42

@
@galdersrontgorrth3 years agoeven though they're in more visible spaces, slingers have such a huge aggro range that they might snipe you from off-screen (if you have an ultra-wide screen then maybe not). not to mention their damage is higher. so i would include them with the archers or rank them even higher. also charger undead like pindle should make the list. even though they're slow otherwise, they often spawn in dark areas. ...6
@
@404-Err0r3 years agoOmg your list is so darn accurate.. I've lost keyboards (plural) during classic because of the darn stigyian dolls. I hate them, I will always hate them. They are worst than bosses lol. I've heard that Max block builds can block the explosion damage caused by the dolls. Keep up the good work! ...4

@Patrick_The_Pure3 years ago4- Oblivion Knights, yes, only at 4 now, not like before depending on your character attack type, melee, ranged or magical. If you were melee?, well..... Pre 1.13, they had Iron Maiden, which they would cast during your attack animation and instant kill you with 1000% returned damage, that sure was a lot of fun. ...6
@
@stevenvanderkolk36133 years agoGood list. Fetish shaman could be on there aswell. That fire breath killed me pretty often on a normal run when you dont have much resistance yet. 4
@
@irrelevanthero74103 years agoHoly sht. Thanks for the heads up on the bugged snakes.
@
@brianelvidge41293 years agoStygian dolls. Funny you should mention HC, I was playing my HC summoner through the NM Durance, LVL2 and I met a section that I didn't want to walk around, trying to get my army through the door, etc. So, I broke my long standing rule, which is to NEVER teleport into a completely unknown area. The reason I don't do that (except in extremis because I might die if I do not get out of dodge) immediately, is that when you teleport you gather up your army. This is normally a good thing, however, they are no longer dispersed and watching your back for a second after teleporting. Almost like they are disoriented. After that brief pause they redeploy and you can control the battlefield once more with DV and whatever your favourite tools are. Case in point, I made one modest, ill advised teleport through a wall, arrived next to a bunch of Stygian dolls and before I could even reach my potions, before the army could wake up and move a millimeter, they rushed and murdered me. To put this in perspective, I was lvl 64 and overgeared and levelled for the place and had been doing Meph runs quite casually every session. Really taking my time before hitting hell. So it goes. One bad decision, some bad luck and ... goodnight. ...

@mojoechina3 years agoI recently telported into a combination of Death lord, Viper, Dolls, and Souls in the Throne during a typical Baal run. I try to escape by opening a portal but didn't have time to give out a warning, and was hated by everyone after. But the on screen explosing of the word' 'Slain' was a spectacle till this day. 😂 ...34

@
@jwinder23 years agoMy impossible experience of recent times was Battlemaid Sarina, the ruined temple, inherently spectral hit and extra fast, with extra strong and fanaticism aura as here two added abilities, on a meteor orb sorceress with a decently equipped merc. They ran from room to room in a second, and were unavoidable, and wiped me in a second even when I managed to get back in and retrieve my corpse once. Opening a portal and dying in the other side of the temple didn't seem to matter, as they were running around at hyperspeed patrolling the entire area. ...14

@amarauk96873 years agoI remember going into hell difficulty with my barb back when skill synergies didn't exist and deleting the game after days of being oneshotted by act1 trash mobs 18
@
@miothan3 years agoFor general/overall gameplay i say Souls are the nr1 most dangerous enemy, they kill you really fast when trying to teleport to Baal, i remember back in the D2 days most ppl would just leave if they knew lightning souls were on the way to baal and just join next instead, but never had anything like that happen with the dolls. ...2
@
@bran44573 years agoMy Kicksin found out how strong deathlords are the other day. I straight up just started avoiding them for my own sanity. 6
@
@abstractdaddy13843 years agoA tip for archers if you're playing a Barb, spam taunt on all of them and they stop shooting and walk up to you. Super easy to deal with. Also, I think it's pronounced sty-jun. 4
@
@RaventhortheWarrior3 years agoI'd have the venom boys, the big ol' demons, around the bottom of the list. They're super fast, and the flame breath can definitely rot you in early game when you haven't stacked enough resist. Pretty flimsy later on, but I can imagine a lot of dead corpses after the seal is popped in sanc. ...2
@
@MRCelSynap3 years agoI like the list, I'd certainly put vipers as being #1 or 2, only because nihl's area is the only one that is a problem, but it is also a very important area in the game, if they were in one of the hellgates I wouldn't care about them. I'd make a special mention for anything with inferno while low level, the damage is just insane, the counter is easy but it is also an early game investment ...
@
@LosN2093 years agoI approve this list. Especially throne room styg dolls right at the door with all the worst mods. And your beast of a merc loves to pop them in one stab. 3

@christianschmidtpetersen24083 years agoI'm surprised how alligned my list was with this. I put the exact same 4 mobs on top in that exact order. I disagree with Dark Lancers and Infidels though, I think you put those there because they're frost immune. Honestly, I never even paid attention to the existence of Infidels or Dark Lancers. You could have easily swapped their spots with beetles and archers. ...7
@

@
@pfistor3 years agopretty much totally agree with the list. If you get cursed while fighting these mobs it's rough.

@rcarson153 years agoI'd honestly put Ghouls up on the list too.. they arent hard to kill, but seem to strike incredibly fast when you tele in the middle of them - plus they inflict poison damage.

@JiminalPrime3 years agoA pretty agreeable list llama! As a summoner necro doll and souls are about the most annoying thing to tackle. Especially when teleing.

@ailst3 years agoAs a hardcore-player I remember pretty well what the last mobs were that killed me. Even though those deaths are more than a decade ago. Note: Most of my deaths were to connection issues, I don't count them here. A unique Flayer Shaman in Act 3 Normal killed my Paladin. A Level 18 PK in Act 3 Normal killed another Paladin. A MSLE-Archer in some Cave in Act 1 Hell killed my Necro. Nilathak Act 5 NM killed me with a CE. I don't remember what char it was. A group of Extra-Strong-Extra-Fast Urdars in Act 2 Hell killed my Barb. This may ore may not have been a TP-PK. (for those who don't know: making a town-portal in an extremely dangerous room surrounded by monsters, in the hope someone would step into it and die. But it's hard to tell because it could also just be someone fleeing a tough situation by using a TP. Just don't take other people's TPs in HC unless you can ask them whether they are save and trust them.) I don't even know what it was but it was also MSLE in Act 2 Hell killed my Assassin. Diablo himself Act 4 NM killed my Amazon. My 1st and only character in D2R is still alive. A paladin, he's in Act 1 NM. I also actually still have a Necro in Act 2 Hell on a Floppy-disk. But I don't have a floppy-drive anymore. :D ...4

@wesleylu73833 years agoThis video explains so many things. I was running through Nihlathak's dungeon as a bone necro and those tomb vipers melted a whole screen of bone prison in two seconds. I was so confused. Same with the death lord's frenzy. I saw my health getting melted away when they were just standing next to me not even attacking. I thought the buff on them was some sort of super op aoe whirlwind that rips apart everything next to them. ...

@iancanuckistan22443 years agoDolls are definitely #1! Pit vipers are nasty but like you said they are almost instant death in the Halls of Vaught. It's a fast save and exit for me when they appear.
@
@dotexe49813 years agoGlad to see my worst enemies being included. I honestly think the night lord champions at halls of vaught are the worst. One of them can kill 30 diablos. The little dolls are annoying but with proper kiting no problem. 2

@
@xPulse5823 years agoThis video unexpectedly is one of the many reasons this game is so much more preferred to diablo 3. Simply put...hell is hard. And unless you're fully geared and in an S tier build, you cant just steam roll the entire game, especially not during progression. I played d3 during all the server downs and it's not difficult at all. And sure GR150 is hard, youre so optimized and that's literally the end game. You get garunteed goodies at the end and you repeat. Try to clear act 5 in hell on a hard core character. Your booty hole will be clenched the whole time ...4
@
@ClaimToFameMusic3 years agoWould this double as best revives for necro list? 🤔
@
@ousha50113 years agopretty accurate. maybe I'd put archers a bit up if you count all archer/lancers, when they are guest mob in act5, they can be in so big pack that your mercenary get murdered instantly before get into their range.
@
@gummydogs3 years agoAs a teleporting key farmer, I'd move vipers to number one. When there's a pack of them and you teleport to the wrong spot, they can one shot you with a charge and poison cloud, and it's impossible to react. At least souls are reactable, dolls don't have an instagib-stun and usually won't one-shot you, oblivion knights can be played around. Vipers are brutal without high HP and maybe energy shield to survive the initial hit. ...1
@
@jamkagesan90213 years agototally agree with the 1st one the undead dolls. they really scare me !!! All my deaths are due to these mobs thanks for your videos
@
@hanswurst93972 years agoSouls - with my paladin (max. lightning res; lightabsorb from Thundergod's Vigor) luckily they don't scratch me at all. I was quite surprised how much of an impact do Thundergod's.
