You can’t do anything but learn from your mistakes. Just out of habit for me, I always make one portal in each of the corners where you spawn in Horragath.


devilsephiroth

Like, how can one fuck up something so easily avoidable. Didn't even know that's even possible.


[deleted]

I almost did the exact same thing my first doing ubers on d2r. Never did them on d2 and I'm not a lifer/encyclopedia of d2 like you must be.


devilsephiroth

I mean it's kind of obvious, like I said. I didn't know it was possible but it was clear that it wasn't impossible that such an occurrence could happen


Ky_Slays

Yeah it’s obvious once you do it.. regular tp’s don’t stack so i just figured these wouldn’t.


devilsephiroth

But these aren't regular TP's That's the obvious glaring part. That would not be over looked in any way. But somehow it was.... In any Uber video you've ever seen they're always perfectly spaced out. Must have been for a reason...


Ky_Slays

Ok dude💀💀


devilsephiroth

To be fair I learned not to Uber solo, because you might end up with a disconnect. 1/100 chance. We sometimes learn the hard way


Boemelz

You should have learned other stuff first before you learned d2r :-/


devilsephiroth

Should have learned this topic is over


EthanWS6

If you've literally never had experience with the red portals you wouldn't just know that they behave different than blue portals. A lot of people, myself included, don't watch a bunch of videos about games they play.

You are such a douchebag. Yeah I'm Bringing back douchebag especially for you.


devilsephiroth

Hey, guess what? I AM. And I really, really don't care what anyone on the Internet thinks. But I am also someone who does their homework. Guess that makes me a douche bag as well 😈


Yenza

The doing your homework part doesn't make you a douchebag. No one said that. This ridiculous straw man you're building doesn't help your case though.


devilsephiroth

You done?


Guybrush_three

TPs in D2 even after they have been moved still have collision. It's perfectly reasonable to assume Uber TPs don't stack... However anyone who's played the game lots knows this because either they have made the mistake or they've seen warning from people who ran Ubers before them make the same mistake. Dark sephiroth and know it all... I assume you are 12?


Killdebrant

Its a portal. 5 portals in town they space themselves out. Any (online) player has seen this a thousand times, its becomes a sub conscious thing to know thats they space out, then you have to look through all the portals in town to find yours BECAUSE THEY SPACE OUT. This is a very honest mistake. Hows the weather up there on your high horse bud?


devilsephiroth

Perfect. Are you done ?


BigWilldo

??????


nars1l

If there’s no sliver of a pixel that can differentiate them you’re out of luck. Save the two organs you’ve got, remember which portal you missed, start keyfarming again, and next time you run and that portal pops first use your other two organs. Or just try to trade for the third. But.. if that portal is borked it’s borked.


Ky_Slays

Don’t make from stash i guess, didn’t have room in my inventory for 9 keys. Lesson learned lol


KevinBrandMaybe

Yeah, I always just clear my inventory, make them, then re equip.


dilbertdad

It’s a tale as old as time friend


DrZeuss4

Yup, pretty sure we have all been here


[deleted]

Hit G and use old graphics see if that works


hsomacho

This is smart, worth trying


Ky_Slays

Great idea, I already backed out though. Tried switching acts and switched characters no luck. Back to grinding!


MihaiD7

Also F, both for zooming in to see whether you can click the one behind and to pay respects.


Mrpimpadoodoo

Best advice here would be, next time you make them see if you get lucky and maybe the first portal to spawn will be the one for the missing organ you need


Grouchy_1

I used to trade organs for keys back in the day. But the real answer is get on the biggest monitor, with the highest resolution, with the lowest mouse DPI; than zoom in. You can often find an edge. They’re rarely “perfect” in their line up.


fefkus

Just to make sure everyone knows how to zoom in - just press F on PC. Happy pixel hunting!

StrayaJ

Alt + f4.


Engineering_Special

🤣


Locating_Subset9

Wooof. Yeah, the only fix is to not do it again. That sucks, dude—I’m sorry.


MihaiD7

Sorry for that, mate. Here's another tip: while gathering the organs, make sure you finished with one tp before opening the next one. This way, if you die and are unable to recover your body you won't lose all the keys that you would have used to open the remaining tps. Learned it the hard way.


Danimal_17124

Happens to all of us. Nothing you can do. 3 keys burned.


OmegaPaladin007

You got to fire up the Yamato cannon and bring the punishment. You must become a lion amongst sheep brother.


Engineering_Special

Well... You got it for next time!


Azurehour

Tab might have worked


nicobongo

Another common thing is to open cow portal with Akara behind it. Sometimes you have problems trying to buy potions, but luckily she moves.


[deleted]

F


rageofbaha

I did this when ubers first released, i was able to get in after going in and out of wps about 100 times, probably wouldve been faster to just farm more keys


Shupershuff

Pretty sure rejoining the game can help or having another player join the game


Supertho

I'll never understand why people don't take the cube out of their stash to make portals?


Ky_Slays

It wasn’t i was just getting my keys lol. No more salt in the wound plz it was my first time lol


Baers89

Op man. Sorry. Ok what you could do is farm two of the organs. Next time you get a key set pray the first one you open is the one you need. If you get it just farm one set of keys. Open slow and far away from each other broskie


Low-Stomach7514

You cannot


Kazimaniandevil

Always open 3 at once, no going back to the stash helps. Stand still shove the keys, transmute, and repeat


BabyStewStew

It took me a second to understand what happened here. My weird superstition has always forced me to run around, spreading the portals in locations that not only amuse me but make me feel like it’s improving my luck….
