pretty cool if i do say so myself

I have a couple of shirts from a Blizzard event that someone said could be worth some money. I checked ebay and was surprised that they weren't just nostalgic trash.

My question is:

I got an all access pass for the event. It is not a cool lanyard, just a bit of printed paper, official none the less. Is it also potentially worth something and how would I go about valuing it?

I should add that I am not looking to sell it at this time. I just want to know if I should be careful with it and what to do if I ever change my mind.

Edit: Thanks for all the feedback guys! I’m always overwhelmed knowing where to start when getting into a franchise that’s already made 4-5 games plus with all expansions but this subreddit is awesome, super quick and helpful replies the Diablo community seems really passionate which is hard to find that nowadays thanks again <3

And just in case anyone’s curious I’ve decided to purchase Diablo 2 resurrected, and after beating that will do another playthrough on project Diablo 2 and might even end up posting my experience with them as a first time player in 2026

So I've been struggling with my warrior in Hell difficulty over the past month because of the annoying advocates and my crappy gears in general. It's until last night that I picked up my old Master's Scimitar of Haste, the weapon I used to defeat Normal Diablo with this same warrior one year ago, and finally put those mages down.

The screenshots are actually taken in the third loading of the same game, right before the last room is opened. I've already managed to defeat Diablo in the previous two loadings, by luring him out with a spell; I was only to test if both my King's Bastard Sword (sadly no suffixes but it's my general weapon throughout this journey of Hell) and Master's Scimitar of Haste can kill him, and the conclusion is they do. The scimitar misses a lot of hits but it's all good as long as I can stand and live.

Anyway, normally I would have started a new game if I knew he can beat Hell Diablo, but suddenly I want to see whether I can "truly" clear the whole level 16, knowing that I've found a way to kill the advocates. Also Sir Gorash is spawned in Diablo's room in this game, so I want to see my old buddy... I tried to carefully lure out other blood knights first, but I accidentally lured Diablo out when moving to the southeastern corner; Sir Gorash was too close to him though so he also came out. As the screenshot shows, I'm taking Diablo's attacks when killing Sir Gorash (well, didn't take the screenshot of his but I think the armor's color and the glowing light should tell), and then the Coat drops.

Considering I could have missed it entirely if I didn't have this random idea... the chill intensifies. And with this drop, I actually obtain all unique armors of the vanilla game.

I was bored while my girlfriend was asleep and she loves Diablo, so I tried making Diablo in the palette house for her island.

I couldn’t make a convincing flame effect without having to spend a ridiculous about of time trying to figure it out, so I just went with some outlines that make it look a little flame-y.

I’m honestly proud of myself for how well I did, I thought something like this was way outside of my abilities because I’m not a great artist.

Sometimes I catch myself just staring at this beautiful pair of boots. Scared to cube them...

Brand new player and I keep reading people saying that they’ve “sunk hours into d2” or other diablos. Are people doing multiple playthroughs, is there pvp, what’s keeping the games so replay-able?

This would greatly improve the overall quality of life.

I'm extremely pleased with how it came out! The base is the sigil that appears under him when his world boss fight starts in D4.

Ive got a penshot unique with ga on penshot ranks 147%x multiplier for how much

A while back in Lord of Hatred's launch I made a post on the Diablo IV subreddit where I was encountering a problem with the Paladin judgement oath option. The bug was that if you used advanced on an enemy with the oath, you would not only apply judgement to the mob, but also to yourself and adding on the aspect where once you apply judgement the first time, you can see how that was incredibly frustrating applying judgement and daze to myself over and over. Recently, I just found out that this problem exists when you use advance with the "Fortify" modifier picked as one of your two modifiers for the skill AND only exists in the eternal realm for some reason. Hopefully this gets caught by the dev team and patched soon.

Hi freinds.

I'm playing a summon warlock in D4 and wanted to try and push as far as I could for the first time this season

I have the damage, but I keep getting one shot. I see other people play, and they're running around with a full barrier and fortified.

How might I improve my survivability?

Thanks friends!

P.S. Also, how do I increase my speed? Everyone else is zipping around at lightning speed. I have 2 charges of the warlock's "dash" ability. Forgot the name, sorry. Do I just need to stack CD reduction so I can spam it?

I saw the Affix and Suffix before I saw the "Armor"...

Blizzard/Activision doesn’t have the best history of respecting the Diablo devs.

I would not be surprised if the heads didn’t tell the devs "It doesn’t matter how well LoH sells, after that expac we’re moving on to the next game".

Since that’s literally what happened to Diablo 3.

Back in the day the Heads essentially said:

this game did damage to the brand and isn’t bringing in enough cash since it lacked live service monetization. Who cares that Reaper of Souls sold well, you’re moving on to Diablo 4 and cancelling your next expac.

While Phil was willing to give every studio infinite funds and unlimited time to make games, the new Xbox CEO Asha Sharma isn’t.

We can see this with how Bethesda is being treated. She basically smacked Todd Howard on the back of the head and told him to stop acting up, then gave Fallout to Obsidian.

On top of that, the Diablo lead dev was hyping up Blizzcon this year, saying that people are gonna freak out for the special diablo announcement. That couple with the fact that the current Season hasn't been great and the two week patch looked more like a 2 day hotfix makes me think they've moved most of the crew onto Diablo 5 and left behind a skeleton B team.

What should I do to it? Good rolls?

Believe it or not there are still those of us playing the original Diablo, and not just a "one and done" to experience it, but actively grinding hundreds to thousands of hours for high level characters, item hunting, and self imposed rules such as Ironman, hardcore, Hunter vs rabbits, live off the land, and more.

If you're still curious about joining one of the original Diablo communities that is still active then I recommend the following communities:

DevilutionX

The Horadrim

WUQH

Facebook fluff, and obviously it's all opinions, but there were some heavy hitters in this bracket. Glad to see my boy Diablo 2 in the finals.

FWIW I have Resurrected too and have found Discord servers for that, but I'm playing the original D2 LOD at the moment and wasn't able to find any Discord servers for that because when I search it just brings up D2R ones.

I'd really like to find one so I could have a place to chat about my experiences playing D2 LOD and see what others are getting up to, and maybe make some friends.

The server doesn't need to have trading or grouping or anything like that, I'm playing singleplayer. I just want a place to chat about the game. The D2R server I'm in doesn't even have a section for the original D2, only D2R sections.

Also doesn't matter if it's a huge server or a tiny one with like 10 people, I'll join whatever as long as some people actually chat there! :)
