Ten years later I started re-playing Diablo II again as a way to slow down my outrage of still waiting for Diablo III to come out.  What blew my mind was over the course of said 10 years and who knows who many patches all the pain and suffering is still in there.  They fixed some exploits and other things.  But the 2 biggest bugs that leaves the Barbarian class in that frustrating situation of doing the naked body run are still there.

Super WTF Barbarian bugs:

1. Whirlwind just stays in one spot if your destination is over an dropped object or just outside anything considered a wall.  100′s of monsters closing in on your location and you want to cut your way out of the crowd.  Opps if your escape destination happens to be a dropped blue Mana bottle you will still there twirling like a ballerina until 50 monsters beat you to death.  So much fun…
2. Related is your jump attack just goes straight up and down if your destination is over an dropped object or outside anything considered a wall.  Need to jump out of the fray and into a door way so you can control the crowd.  Oh shit if you killed anything in that doorway on your way in then chances are there are a bunch of dropped things so instead you jump high into the sky and every monster is taking aim on you as you gracefully fall back to earth.  Nothing better than waiting for your eventual death…

Since both of these moves are considered attacks for the barbarian class how is it possible this is not considered a bug and fixed yet.  You can drop kick fallen angles trying to enslave the human race but if a ring is below you then can not jump there and are just going to do jumping jacks instead.  Any other class if your attack target is an inanimate object it does not care and just fires away.  Not so lucky for the barbarians…

For the love of all gods that I do not believe in, please blizzard fix this in the next version, my sanity can not take any more of this…
