How do you guys "Magic-Farm"?

Adding on to the original question: a lot of guides for farming assume you're playing single player and can mess with the players setting (like a COWARD). What are the best strategies for strictly farming online?

Expect to die frequently by strangers in online games no matter how well equipped you are there are too many exploits in public games to Claim safe farming in random players games.
The best strategy is understanding the above and doing the remotest named mobs/field clearing if the rando's are hell bent on finding you they will.
OTHERWISE play with FRIENDS in private games and avoid the random hostilities.
You want to call that cowardice well when the rando joins hops into town after goes agro then everyone suddenly dies to the glitching often enough. You'll find it annoying enough to avoid too

I'm sorry? I have never been killed by anyone in a public game. Whether it was a

Baal game, split mf game, or anything else.
(and I don't mean that I'm good at PvP, quite the contrary - I have just never engaged anyone in PvP in a public game because it has never been necessary)
Have you really encountered this a lot?

I genuinely haven't died to a player since at least 2007 because I simply don't participate in PvP lmao, does that even happen?

its happened to me 3 or 4 times at least. always in games when someone is giving people a rush. just in the last few years.

use to happen ALL the time in the olden days. a holes would just do it for kicks.

Depends on your char capability.
Must seek the aLvl 85 area, such as The Pit,

Ancient Tunnels and high density

Terror zones.

Pindleskin is very nice and quick farm.

For runes and bases

Chaos Sanctuary and

The Secret Cow Level are appropriates.

The Countess is excelent if you are seeking mid runes.

It's not PVP they go hostile then use a kill all glitch/exploit you never see them. was nearly impossible to avoid near the end of D2 original

Again, I have never been killed by a PKer in D2R. Sure, I’ve run into a few trolls who hostile everyone, but nobody has ever actually tried to kill me. That’s why I was surprised at what you wrote. What you’re talking about sounds like something from the D2/LoD days, not D2R.

Yes, I’m aware that this was a thing in D2/LoD, but I have never heard of any exploits like that in D2R, most definitely not anymore (in the past 2.5 years or so). The old PK exploits from D2/LoD have all been fixed as far as I’m aware.

I doubt they've been fixed more like the penalties for glitching commercial servers has just become too risky to do for shits and giggles D2R is in essence the same game with the same glaring swiss cheese code from back in the day, You still crash out because of the post Death graphics for Shenk Blizzard patched Exploits that affected the games economy duping for example stuff that griefed players "That's your problem" was the way they treated them. If you wonder why Many of the people supervising the servers were themselves selling items at the time which brought around rumors that if it wasn't their dupes it'd be hot fixed as soon as they knew about them.
