Another place I enjoy is halls of pain. I find the monster density in there can be pretty high, the narrow hallways helps with keeping them together.

But all types of mobs can spawn down there, i believe even ghosts.

insane, how this channel is growing since d2r release!

Short story: everything up to and including Ist - run Countess on appropriate difficulty. Gul, Vex and maybe Ohm are reachable with some dedication by smashing Hell Countess runes together. Anything above Ohm, you will never see unless you have literally thousands of hours to sink into the game, or trade with someone who does (or use bots or find a way to cheat), but best chance is areas with very high monster counts like cows, since you literally have to kill 100,000 monsters on average before you see a high-level rune.

Regarding chaos runs there is the seal popping technique allowing you to insta-kill monsters in the area when you activate the last seal. The thing is that only monsters up to close to two screens away from you will drop items (with 0 MF, but since you're looking for runes who cares). But the game considers the monsters active for drops if you've been close to them in a span of something like 7 seconds. First pop a portal at the bottom of chaos, the game considers it to be like an active player; then kills the seals' bosses and leave the last portal. Before you do activate this portal just teleport around to activate monsters' drops and then activate this last portal to insta-kill monsters and just look around for the dropped loot.

Ohm found in the Pit lev1, def the highest I've found but it was thanks to Llamas area level info in the multiple guides!

I just have to say, I admire you guys that play this game. The only reason I am watching this is to write an article about it, and just looking at this aches me to my core. I never understood what's so fun about these games. You roam around, kill stuff, get stuff in return, and then do it all over again. I guess there's a storyline and whatnot, but wow, this gameplay bores me to death.

Found Zod on hell cows last week, first zod in my entire D2 career

Just kill every random elites/champions you see on the way while you do whatever you are doing. Random zombies dropped me Vex on the way while I was searching for the tower. Also a random pack dropped me a Shako while I was on my way to Baal. Both of those were "skippable" monsters if you try to "farm fast". Just slow down and kill stuff on the way if you see elite packs, it's worth it in the long run.

Chaos is the most fun place to farm, it is right next to the wp and you just tp in and kill stuff within seconds. Chaos requires decent gear though to be quick because you will encounter Lighting, Fire and Cold immunes. I run a Frozen orb and Meteor sorceress with a strong mercenary which deals with most cold+fire immunes in seconds. I do not recommend fire or lightning only for chaos without extremely good gear with a lot of -resistance because there are ware too many enemies for your mercenary to handle. You can do Chaos as Blizzard but your mercenary will need to kill all Oblivion Knights which in some games is a mess because there can be A LOT of them. I got a Ber rune from my last set of Chaos runs.. =)

Crazy, whenever I watch these videos, he finds GG items. When I run it over and over I see nothing, feels bad.

Travincal Council can only drop up to Cham. However, the drop rate for high runes on Council is amongst the highest in the game, second only to Ghosts or Wraiths. If you have a good Blizz sorc or a decent Zealer with Laying of Hands, it by far one of the most efficient places to farm for high runes. However, you'll probably have to do like 1000+ runs to have a good chance at one high rune or more. Council is also very good for charms and Rainbow Facets + gold for gambling.

@mrllamasc I really enjoyed your video about breaking monster immunities and how the affix of unique monsters can add to resistances. I was wondering if you could do a video on lower enemy resist vs elemental damage and how to get the most damage done. Im min-maxing a poison necro and im in a place where I need to decide if I should use more gear to lower resist, or use those slots for items that +to skill for more damage. I havent been able to find an article on which (if any) reaches a point of diminishing returns. Thanks!

Items with +elemental damage will beat +skills in most cases. They are pretty rare though. Trang set and death webb for poison I believe. Then facets of course.

OMG You cleaned your mic filter! Awesome :D

For HRs (and any item in general), the amount of time you spend farming is much more important than the location you choose to farm. Play more = better items.

Not exactly… you can farm He’ll Meph without killing other things for months and you have allowed odds of finding a high rune than spending that time doing cow runs. Also, you can spend time farming NM and have 0 odds of finding a high rune. It’s not just about your play time - which is what you’re saying. Also items are based on item level, you literally can’t get some items by farming certain areas. Thanks for oversimplifying it though.

I always get them in pairs. I'll grind for weeks and get nothing. Then I'll rush a friend randomly and find a Cham and Jah within 2 choas runs. Of course then I go back to grinding for weeks seeing nothing but mid runes.

I've found all my highest runes in games with friends. I think increasing the number of players in the game is the best thing you can do to find more runes.

funny you said that. i just found Sur and Lo

Got my first Cham yesterday doing Pindle runs. :)

Tal rasha Tombs are nice. Very high density map. I did get few runes there. I don't know if you can get higher than Jah, but I did drop Jah there.

I have spent almost 20 years (D2 original and now D2R), and have multiple level 99 characters, and I am still missing a BER rune. Never found one. Not one. I have crafted one, but never actually found one.

What can drop in NM vs hell in cows? Also, is lower kurast good for online?

It‘s still superchests. So if you feel like it, by any means go. But compared to SP it‘s trash since the map is randomly generated so you need to search and take probably 3-4x as long as on a good SP map. Also no /players 8

So is it worth doing lower kurast on multiplayer or just do cows (can’t do trav cause I’m a bliz sorc). Does anyone know what NM cows can drop vs hell?

@@taitrieu7879 your fine with just the LK runs if that's all u can do atm. Just try n get a full game or at least half. And my opinion pop some random chest otw to the fire. Done well just otw

I found my first Ohm on my (probably) 1000th+ meph run (since launch) yesterday. Then I found another Ohm 5-10 runs later off the Blood Lords or box behind him.

Not sure if it was stated yet, but you don't have to look for campfires. The superchests will always be in the huts that doesnt have a "entrance icon" - the yellow color - made it alot easier for me to brainlessly farm it than looking for a campfire

I'm like 12 hours deep grinding 85 areas and haven't gotten better than lum.

Patch 1.14 of the original LoD buffed rune drops. D2R is based on that.

Great video thank you

I found an Ist off boss packs near Andariel doing Hell runs there. Was pretty surprised!

Chaos, cow, any high level area. Kill everything and open them chest... do whatever is easiest for your character to clear.

My best rune drop so far has been 'Lem' .... but hey, at least I got myself a Mal rune through a trade. Still having a great time in D2R, it would be boring if it was all too easy and too quick =)

I feel you, my highest rune when finished the game was Lum :)) did a lot of meph and Andy, some pindles.. just Lum hah. Then I got pul, ko, lem from trades, and now, when trying to farm Baal, his minions dropped me a Ohm :)) so I'm very happy!

Some important notes with cows is that it is also great for white bases. But also it is safe and it is very cheap and fast to farm with a javazon. The combination of density, speed, safety, and cheapness makes it so good for rune running.

You just gave me idea, thanks

I usually find runes in: (by act): Act 1: two crypts where you fight Blood Raven, Catacombs 1-4, Jail 1-3 and obviously Countess\Tower. Act 2: Rocky\Dry Hill\Far Oasis, Snake Temple, Arcane S, Valley\Canyon and Tombs (all seven) Act 3: Kurast (any), Trav, Durance of Hate 1-3 Act 4: Entire act 4, especially Plains of Despair and City of the Damned as they often spawn with Ghosts Act 5: Halls of Pain\Anguish, Crystal Passage, Ancient's Way, Worldstone Keep 1-3

Found a Jah in Trav and a Ber off of a ghost in the tower within a month of each other (single player PlugY). Happiest summonmancer, ever. Now after a Lo for a Grief. Scored a Lo after a streak of Mals and Vexes. Now I have a slaughtermonkey zealer and a porta-trapsin. These two runewords lived up to the hype. Good times.
