Er, no, I do not even have internet access at home!

Just mail me.... imyokai@yahoo.com

I just hope that you do not want to know too much about issues that do NOT have to do with skills, because that is most everything I know

PS: I am now going home, so do not expect a response for say 10 hours

Ah, so THAT is why it costs three times its mana cost!

Also, when moved skills disregard things like equipped weapon and shape. So I believe that you might actually be able to make poison dagger independent of weapon (not sure, needs testing) by moving it to another slot

I think that you can make skills passive in skills.txt, BUT AFAIK passive skills do nothing by themselves, they just sit there as useless point sinks, but other skills use in their damage formulae not only their own skill level but also the passive level. The fact that they only have 0000 and FFFF in the dlls (ie. nothing) gives it away.

Er, who is the 'bard'? You said that it went off three times, which is probably what happens to me as well, and results in extreme mana costs UNLESS you have just enough mana to cast it once, then it will only happen once and of course to poor damage.

Why? No idea. Long live Blizzard.

Hehe. There is something strange going on in skills.txt. Some things - like animation, mana cost etc. are controlled at the location of the new skill, and some are still at the old skill, like damage, but not always.

Change both figures just to be sure

(and be sure to reduce the skill's range or you will get tons of kills from five screens away

Why not? The 'singing bard'?

Might have something to do with the fact that the leap anim takes longer (just guessing) so the delay between the three casts is longer.

Or maybe because I have increased the duration and especially screen shake (45 ). Not sure, monster skills act weird, very weird at times.

I have tried to set meteor as wake of destruction sentry (the spell WoF casts) and all I see is a casting animation, nothing else. All other sentries (Decrepify, Chain Lightning, Frozen Orb) work fine. Hmmm...

You talking about LoD in general, or my mod?

If it is the latter, what items did you find? If you got 'lucky' enough to find crap with +1% to max life, of the Pyramid or of Darkness (actually sells for less after being IDed), just keep going. Once charged items begin to drop, it should be easier. Remember that there is indeed some stuff that sells for almost nothing or even 1 gold, but is still useful to certain characters (eg. the +skills & life drain and the +stat & +requirements affixes)

Buy something that does good damage by itself like a charged item of Holy Fire (greatly upped in damage, and in the final version which I will post very soon even more so). It does have a fixed, terrible radius, but as a barb you are going to cuddle anyway. Skeleton Raising, Faith, Earthquake, and once you get to 18 Heal Party, Concentration and Holy Freeze are also nice affixes. Or be very cheap and buy something with a high chance to cast. Free damage

If you are talking about classic LoD: remember D1? Where no matter how good you were, you would invariably end up with no mana and out of money to buy more, or with a broken bow and no money to repair it?

BTW: Going home now, will be back over 2 hours, with a CDR with the latest version 1.0 on it

The Leap sequence doesen't like to play at all in a non-leap skill. Can't even move leap/leap attack/whirlwind to different places at all.

Look near the end of that "some intro to dll files part 4" (which is from quite a while back in the code editing room), I found a table of passive skills in d2common.dll, but I'm not sure whether they do anything or not.

Good luck, but even Foxbat cannot magically make skills rely on other skills as passives. (not YET...)
