[Exploit] Barb Drop


What you need:
  • A Barbarian with at least 1 point in all skills of the Masteries tree, Battle Command, Battle Orders, and Shout.
  • Proper stats to equip the buff items.
  • Items to add states: Dream, Dragon, Infinity, Treachery, Rain, Demon Limb, et cetera.


Basic description of the 'sploit:
An entity that exceeds 18 (or 19 - something like that) states causes the server to send a packet (0xAA) to the clients in which the state info is too long with no terminator. This results in a deadlocked client, and the victim must end the Diablo II process before they are disconnected from Battle.net (there will be a short delay thereafter as well). This can lead to literal EZPKs.

What to do:
  • Get 13 states from Masteries, BO, BC, and Shout.
  • Get 6 more states from buff items.
  • Get within 3-4 screens of your victim(s). (-edit;clarification- You must be off their screen beforehand and *then* get within their proximity.)
  • Watch them sit there for a minute (Optional if possible: PK them) and then they will eventually drop.
