How to spawn Diablo Clone!

[Vollstrecker]

**Taken straight from Blizzhackers, I claim NO credit**

"How the dclone works:

When you sell a soj and recieve the soj sale message, everyone whose game is hosted on the same server (not realm - just THAT server machine) will get the message. When the sale of a soj spawns the dclone, everyone in a game on that server has the dclone spawn in their game too.

To do this, the seller calls out the last two or three digit number of the ip address of the server they are on. Then, everyone who wants a dclone to spawn creates game after game, checking the ip address of the server they have connected to, until they find one whose ip matches that of the seller. Once the IP's match they just have to wait until the seller triggers a dclone and they will get one as well.

ok.. so I along with a bunch of other people have figured out how to make diablo clone spawn with little problems. I've gotten 6 annihilus charms in the past 2 days from doing it. here is what u do.

HOW TO SPAWN HIM:

1) Play the game until u see a soj counter in the game your in. (this makes u save time and sojs to make him spawn, but any game will work as long as he hasnt already been spawned on that server, which will also work, but takes way longer.)

2) When u see the soj counter, tab out to windows and go to run>cmd. When the window loads, type in "netstat -n" without the quotations. u should get a list of open ip address's on the screen. the one with .4000 as the last 4 numbers is the server you are on that has the soj counter in it. Example: you see sojs counter, type in netstat -n and see the ip address 63.241.83.180.4000 where 180 is the games server u are in.

3) Go to the forums and post that the soj counter is going up in .180 on uswest or whatever realm. This means that someone on that server is already selling sojs to the npc's. then other people on the forums also join .180 and start selling sojs. It can take a while to get on the specified server, usually about 30 tries for me, and dont join/exit games to fast or u will get realm down. It usually takes about 20-40 sojs and the clone will spawn. I have done this 6 times in the last 2 days, so it works. I have screenshots as well if u guys want me to post them.

Good luck. And I promise this works, I have no reason to lie. if u dont believe me, check the general discussion forum on battle.net, its all they are talking about.

And no, this isnt just trial and error, he will spawn, and it DOES have to do with selling sojs. I think this should be stickied, because it works everytime we try it.

FAQ:
Do non ladder sojs count for ladder games? Yes.
Do I have to sell the sojs in the same IP that the counter is going up on? Yes, or else the sojs u are selling will count on that server, and not the one that the counter is already moving on.
Can I sell my sojs in a normal game to get the clone to spawn? Yes, as long as u sell them in the same ip as the people who are waiting in hell games.
How long does it take him to spawn? Generally he will spawn between 20 and 40 sojs, but we've seen him come in as few as 8.
If the counter goes up on .61 in uswest, can he spawn in .61 on east? No because it is a different server. He *CAN* spawn if u sell them on east, but your sojs will not count towards the counter on west."

hmm....and the all mistery of a Diablo Clone dissapeared :P

[Luhizot]

omg . to what merchant i have to sell ? im selling sojs to akara and soj counter just appeared once .. me and a friend are both on hell games, on same server, trying to get one charm on ladder and one on non.ladder

shall i sell one soj to each merchant ?

please help

EDIT:

im on East .59 and already sold 14 sojs .. my sojs ended, no dclone yet. i dont got soj counter msg every soj i sell

[DeGeNeRo]

I've seen him come in as few as 3 without using this method. :-/

[Vollstrecker]

It's not really the sojs YOU sell, it how many are sold total. I just had my first one spawn without selling any sojs. Other peeps in other games on 169 server sold 30+

[Hyper]

and for those of us who havnt played in FOREVER and lost everything and might not know what all a diablo clone looks like.. can you post those pictures? My account name is Hyper[eG] ([eG] back when it stood for Elite Gamers.. yes its that old)

[Valmar]

Uber Diablo (d clone) is the game as act 4 diablo on hella steroids basically. He has hella life, regenerates his life, has armageddon and has max res to all elements. He's pretty good but far from unstopable.

[Vollstrecker]

He falls FAST to a Fire Sorc + Conviction pally. Me and a friend put him down in about 30 seconds.

[!King_Amazon!]

Is there any way maybe to tell the game which server you want to join?

[Vollstrecker]

Is there any way maybe to tell the game which server you want to join?

No, that would play hell with Blizz's load distribution. Battle.net creates your game on whatever server seems to look the best, as far as I can tell.

There are *2* different programs I know of that will create games and scan IP for you until you hit the right one. Actually, I will post both as attachments and have been reported clean by my Norton Antivirus 2k4.

Personally, I like the PXLocator better, but then, everyone has their own opinions. :)

EDIT: Actually, this really is good material. Is there any way we could get a sticky on this, Kuja???

[SlickFic04]

Question, ok so when u try finding the server with the same ip address as someone who posts the "hot" ip address, now they can be in 2 different games but have the same ip address? or does it have to be in the same game?

[Sovereign]

From what i understand, as long as you are on the same server, i.e. have the same ip adresss, the clone will spawn in your game....i think....

[Vollstrecker]

Question, ok so when u try finding the server with the same ip address as someone who posts the "hot" ip address, now they can be in 2 different games but have the same ip address? or does it have to be in the same game?

Basically, what you do, is this...


Someone posts that server .141 is hot
You logon to Battle.net, and create a Hell game.
Check server's IP with the 'netstat -n' routine the method explains.
If it returns xxx.xxx.xxx.141:4000, you're on the server. Wait a few minutes to see if soj counter goes up. If it does, that means just hang around and Clone should spawn eventually if they sell enough sojs. IF you don't see the counter go up, he may have already spawned are you're too late.
If it returns any other server, you save+exit and make a new game. Repeat until you hit the server.
Be careful not too fly in and out of games too fast, as that will get you IP banned for a short amount of time.


Also, for the COMPLETE instructions on how to determine server IP, hit up this (http://zelaron.com/forum/showthread.php?t=27143) thread.

Edit: You could also use one of the programs I attached a few posts above to do the dirty work of creating/scanning for you. :D

Enjoy!

[zaibatsu-]

you guys blabb on about selling sojs...yeah right, i was just in my own private game, didnt sell 1 soj, and he popped in bloody foothills in 40mins.

[Sovereign]

You dont necesarily have to sell the soj's...just the people on the same battle.net server...or so it seems O_o...

[Vollstrecker]

Sov has it right. As long as someone is selling sojs on the same server on b.net, the Diablo Clone will spawn in every Hell game on that server. I have tested the method I have posted several times, and it is now confirmed. The thresholds for the soj counter (or random spawn % calculations) is the only mystery now, and only battle.net staff would know about that.

It works, and it is correct. Unless a battle.net admin was to come in and say differently, I wouldn't even waste time wondering if this was wrong.

[JustDieFool]

Yea my Concentrate Barb friend and my 84 Orb MFer take him out in just over a minute.....FBaller/Conv Pala seems to be the best team, though.

:confused: do you have to be in hell to take on the clone and what level do you have to be?

[Sovereign]

You can be any level for him to spawn, but a high ass lvl if you plan to take him out. He ONLY spawns in hell.

[Vollstrecker]

Oddly enough, he DOES spawn in Classic too. He just doesn't drop anything.

[tidus2005]

You can be any level for him to spawn, but a high ass lvl if you plan to take him out. He ONLY spawns in hell.

are you positive i thought he could spawn in norm nightmare and hell just he has a 0% chance in norm to drop anialus charm and 50% in nightmare and 100% in hell i could be wrong but i will look for the info on the summit sometime.

[Sovereign]

99.9 percent sure, yes.

[Vollstrecker]

I heard roughly the same thing too, Tidus. I think I read that on DiabloII.net like RIGHT after patch hit, and it was like 0% / 25% / 100%.

But I have not seen, nor heard of an actual NM or normal spawn, even when perming mules overnight and seeing 30+ "sojs sold" messages. :)

[xbsoradx]

I've seen actual screenshots of people spawnin DC in normal, and i dunt think its 100% to get a anni on hell because i didnt get one....

[Vollstrecker]

That was the day after patch hit on DiabloII.net (when rumors were flying around like crazy), and everyone knows that hasn't been updated for forever + 3 years.

I have not heard of a Normal/NM spawn on the realms. It may be possible someone hacked him into the game on Single Player and took a screenshot.

Would you be able to supply a few of these screenshots?

[xbsoradx]

yea no problem.. i dunno if its real but here it is...
http://www.diabloii.net/battlenet/images/world-event02.jpg

and also this one..
http://www.diabloii.net/battlenet/images/world-event01.jpg

[Sovereign]

few things that bother me here. Number one i dont see a game name or pass, so it seems to be with single player. The patch is right so thats good. But one glaring problem. Doesnt d'clone take the place of any super unique monster. A champion isnt a super unique...... my guess is its a hacked/edited image..

[xbsoradx]

o.. i dunno cause it was posted on diabloii.net

[Vollstrecker]

That is on Single Player, and that was cracked from the beta 1.10 patch.

There was confusion if Uber Diablo was supposed to spawn with regular Diablos or not.

In short, it's a fake.

[xbsoradx]

o sorry about that den...

[BlackKnight]

i think too that it is a hacked/edited game
is this not a normal game?only in hell must "hell" be written...

[Vollstrecker]

The real story on that screenshot, is that some people were playing around with the 1.10 Beta patch, and stumbled across the stats of "Uber Diablo" while playing with the .mpq's. Rumors flew around and people didn't know what he was supposed to look like, or if he was supposed to spawn like a "Champion" or "Unique" kind of Diablo. Some people modded the patch to include Uber Diablo with a band of Diablo minions (much like a unique monster spawns with minions, and those minions are tougher than normal monsters, giving you the "Champion" Diablos).

That is in Normal, and was a screenshot of the modded Beta.

[Coren Baine]

WHERE are you peope getting sooo many soj's that u are selling them? i have beem playing for 1 year and have not even found 1!! am i soo noob, or are you people using duped soj's?

[Wolfman]

Ohhh this sounds interesting... too bad i dont got any soj's :( , or id try and make him pop

id really like to see some pic's and or locations on to whare he is when he pops
Cmon gimme some more info here i know all

[Dr. Geekstar]

Screen 3 (http://zelaron.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=2732&stc=1)

edit: they didnt show up again >.< i inserted the links

[robotbees]

2 questions,
1. yeah like the other two i would like to know where you get so many soj's from!
2. where does he spawn? you have to search around and find him?
3. where should we post if we see a message come up so we can tell other people here about it?


...3 questions...

[Vollstrecker]

1.)Trade for them. They've only begun to get value recently.
2.)He spawns in PLACE of the next Superunique monster (Rakanishu, Pindleskin, etc...) that someone activates.
3.)Hit up this (http://zelaron.com/forum/showthread.php?t=27143) thread.

[FroZZeN]

thx very informative post.

[Gods-Son818]

Well i just think its bs sellin sojs unless ur just filthy rich :D well as i was sayin its bs just wait 4 other ppl to sell ive sold over 20 sojs 4 this scam but all i got was a count and dont think i just left the game i stayed in the game like the whole day.

and the reason i got anni the other day was just cuz i joined a game and he came

[dubl_perkulator]

soj counters have been sold in ip .31 i hope some godly people can come in that sever and sell sojs, if this is the wrong place to tell people the server, where is a good place to let people know?
Also anyone heard about a program that lets you see all the ips where sojs have been sold? I need another anni bad and i will stay up all night for it...i just hope i get it,

[FOF-Fenix]

Well, first off, good information ^_^ I got the counter message pop up in one of the trading chats and everyone was like WTF?!...

So, i guess we shouldn't feel bad if we don't know what happened, i was the only one of my friends that went and searched for the reason however, all my friends said it was a glitch...

Anywho, back to what i'm posting for, it seems that the only place to find a SOJ is from Hell Difficulty Baal... who has a .64% chance of dropping.... this from www.d2data.net , which i find fairly reliable...

With Decent MF and hopefully a *cough* Baal Bot *cough* you could grab a couple in an hour...

Hope that i helped, and now you all owe me a Cracked Boots for reading this... yeah... thats it... cough up the valuables....

[GEEkZ]

Sorry to burst your bubble, but many people on diabloii.net have proved d2data to be highly inaccurate.

Sorry about that.

[FOF-Fenix]

Sorry, i was unclear in what i said by the way, All of the big guys drop the ring: Andy, Pindle, Meph, Big D, Nih... but Baal has the best chance, the problem is the waiting to kill all of Baal's Minnions... thats a pain in the arse...

Anyways, if www.d2data.net is poor, information wise, how does www.diabloii.net stack up?

Also, for you beginning MF'ers, If you get a unique ring to drop and its not the one you want (in this case Stone of Jordan: Other options include Carrion Wind, Natures Peace, Wisp Projector, Nagel Ring, and Manald Heal, Dwarf Star, Raven Frost, Bul Kathos Wedding Band) leave a new game and try a harder boss or get more MF...

I have 275 MF and only get Nagels and Manalds off of everyone up to Big D.

Quoted from Diabloii: As with all Uniques, only one of each can drop in a given game; Uniques on characters or in their possession don't count in the drop equation

I find this 99% true, only so because i stop MF'ing after i kill 1 boss and rarely get more than 2 worthwhile uniques in a game...this has been my experience however...

[GEEkZ]

Diabloii.net is, in my opinion a very good information site. They're the ones that proved d2data wrong.

[pitcher900]

i still dont know how to get dclone out. my friends have tried sellin sojs to get him out and they cant figure out y if someone can tell me how say sumtin

[Sovereign]

Only way is to sell soj's. The numbe of soj's that have to be sold on that server are apparently random. There is no beter explanation.

[Slavetothemetal]

OK guys sorry to be such a noob but how do you go to a diffrent ip server????????

[Kaneda]

join a different game.

[nicho69]

ummmm where is the forum that tells hot ips for d clone?

[Kaneda]

On zelaron, it's pretty much non-existant. The best way to hunt now is through mIRC, but when I recently tried to get on they're server it seemed like it was shut down.

[nicho69]

It is shut down....... WTH ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO LOL

[celaron]

i found my last soj at nightmare radament!

best % for soj is
Andariel (Nightmare) 0.0249284% 1:4011
Diablo (Normal) 0.0216781% 1:4613

from:
http://diablo2.ingame.de/tips/calcs/dropcalc/

[KRazyasian321]

is there any way to find sojs without trading?? Do u need like crazy mf or will it appear in some monsters??

[KRazyasian321]

And any one of you guys wanna go Dclone hunting some time later?

[KRazyasian321]

can u do uber bosses and the lillith and the keys to open the portal and all in single player and open b net?

[!King_Amazon!]

Nightmare Andariel drops SOJs pretty commonly. Just farm her like mad, you'll get some.

[Sean1818]

First of all I see there is a bit of misinformation goin around here. I've hunted/fought/killed clone thousands (literally) of times and there is a surefire way to do it. Firstly it takes 80-130 sojs to make any server "pop" a clone. The only good thing about that is that you dont have to sell them all by yourself if you know where to go and the even better thing is today i'm going to tell you where to go. Next, Dclone can easily be killed with 1 person using either 1. a smiter with even the lamest gear as long as he's got lifetap, a javazon with a infinity merc, other strong builds like ww barb etc.. etc.. he's pretty much immune to any elemental skill without the use of infinity (except for the javazon's charged strike, that'll pwn him ez).

The only ways to know what server you are currently on is explained above, use the command prompt (click start>run>type command>press enter) then type netstat -n and keep your eyes peeled for the server with a port connecting from :4000 and the last two or three numbers is the server number the first three are always the same (63.240.202) (This is Useast Realm BTW) For example if your netstat has an ip like this 63.240.202.144:4000 then you are on server ip 144. There are other method's of seeing an ip such as R1ch's ip in window or by using some of the clever ipfinding bots (f1ndip also by R1CH) or Dcsitter (LivedKrad and [NS] helped build this clientless beauty though it requires an extra cdkey/window to hold the game)

Just randomly ending up on a server selling sojs isn't the best way to go about it. You'll most likely wait in that game for days (or until you drop)
without ever seeing a dclone. even though you might get lucky its highly unlikely. I'm here to tell you about a place that collects information on all the servers and publicly shares that information and keeps track of how many sojs are ever sold and on what server. First thing you should do is download mirc (www.mirc.com) Its an Internet Relay Chat (irc) client it will connect you to the chatroom where they hunt DCLONE!!! Once downloaded choose yourself a nickname enter in information it requests (just name and email, and you dont have to put your real info in, my info states ch as name and [email protected] as info lol) Then click ok, you'll have a blank window with a small section to type in at the bottom, click on that small section and type /server irc.diabloclone.org and press enter. You've just connected to the dclone hunting server. You'll get the message of the day (usually just WELCOME Blahblahblah.) It'll usually tell you to either register your nickname with the server or change it if its in use already. If it tells you to register simply use this command /nickserv register pickapassword [email protected] (now press enter) Then it tells you you've registered blahblahblah now you can join the main channel which is #useast-dclone. You can type /list to see a list of all channels (chatrooms) available to join, they have contests games other things like guildwars lotto etc... fun stuff to entertain yourself with while hunting for dclone, but the important part is useast-dclone. To join that channel either right click it in the list and click join channel, or simply type /j useast-dclone (press enter)
You'll now see as the topic something like this [7:39am] * Topic is '«««( Renegade: ) ¬( HOT: ) ¬( ACTIVE: ) ¬( SLOW: ) ¬( WALKED: 49/48/164/36/70 ) For help type -help - to see the highest servers type -hot - to see info on a specific ip type -event iphere - Set by Mantis'
[7:39am] * Set by Diablo on Mon May 08 00:56:23

Then you'll see ppl yapping their heads off about dclone. The important part is to know how to read the topic. Renegade is the nightly private walk, where people get together to all throw in sojs (5 a piece or more if you want) to get dclone to pop on an unannounced server (not known to the public so only you and the people helping with sojs know what games to be in) If you ever see an ip address in this part of the topic go FIND one of those games immediately, I suggest using F1ndip by R1ch or if you think yer a pro make some games quick and if you land on that ip you'll get a dclone within minutes because they only release the ip to the public 15 minutes before they sell the sojs. Bam instant anni just like that :p. The next thing on the topic is hot :Active : Slow This displays current server activity, for instance if ip 144 is listed in the :Hot: part of the topic, I suggest getting in on that action, because it means its been selling alot of sojs and very quickly it is most likely to have a dclone soon. If its in slow or active watch it closely, because its been selling and it may turn HOT quickly and/or spawn a diabloclone soon. If an ip is in the :WALKED: section of the topic that means it was recently visitted by a dclone, good to know if you were on a server and wasn't sure if you got dclone yet or not. This about sums up the topic section. There is much more to learn about the bots you can use, where you can get more cdkeys/proxies for massive hunting (me personally I can get up to 50 annis in 1 hunt :P) But you'll have to join up irc.diabloclone.org and find that out for yourselves. I hope this helps anyone trying to hunt. Good luck and see you there, I'm always there as Sean1818 and any questions you might have (like where can I find the Bots) can be directly to me or just about anyone else there with a brain :p. Remember to always respect the Operators just like you do the forum moderators here and overall have phun. See ya there. IRC.DiABLOcLOnE.Org -There is no competition

[almighty.peanut]

just got the soj counter .21

[SuperBajin]

hmm....and the all mistery of a Diablo Clone dissapeared :P

that mystery disappeared about 2 weeks after the game came out.

[crdude]

id like too know if there is a site with a chart with all the ip's on it, showing which are close too being popped, i remember seeign one a long time ago but i cant seem to find it now

[Justaviper]

anybody know where the Dclone bot is in Op Dclone (east) i used that to find my dclones, but now my source is gone.... wheres the bot??

[the445566]

ok when ever i type "netstat -n" and i dont type the Quotation marks it says "C:\WINDOWS\system32\netstat.com is not a valid windows application" or sum gay sheet but idk what can i do am i doing sumtin wrong???

just put in netstat

[Asamin]

That never worked for me no matter how many different things I tried. Maybe you have the same curse.

[elmis]

you guys blabb on about selling sojs...yeah right, i was just in my own private game, didnt sell 1 soj, and he popped in bloody foothills in 40mins.

I've got a question. If I go afk in a game for a couple of hours and come back and a d-clone does spawn in my game how can I tell when I get back to my computer? I know when you join a game where a d-clone is already spawned it says "diablo walks the earth" but what if you're afk in a game and you miss that message is there any way to tell he's in the game besides running into him after the message has come and gone?

I believe if you hit "m" it will show like the last 50 messages sent in the game. I can't remember if "m" is the hotkey, but I'm pretty sure it is. I can't remember.

[Coriander]

Yeah, It's the M key, I just looked it up in the little book.
