Ever since I made a Hammerdin, I've seen certian Dins Double casting hammers, or like casting 2 hammers preclick, it's werid, because the Normal hammers fly apart, but these hammers fly right toghter, like below...

Someone tell me, is this just a glitch on my game, or is it actually happening, because by the looks of it does more damage, it's werid because my Clan member who is in the picture 'double casting' has a lower fcr than I do... Help??!?

this is just a graphical glitch, in 09 it WAS possible to double cast, but it was fixed in 1.10 and now its just a graphics glitch.
If im correct u can never see yourself double-casting, but often u will see others do just that.
i think it has something to do with lag or something like that. People can also double-shoot arrows and stuff like that  but only 1 actually does something (not 100% sure tho)

awww okay, thanks man, lol I was starting to get pissed off because I couldn't do what they were doing. Like when I got a rush from a high leveled din he was casting 5 hammers,  Lol, I think it's time for a new computer... lol
Thanks again.

yep, most likely just lag. unless your comp is really old, its probably not the comp's fault. it doesnt take that good of a comp to play d2...the game is what 6 yrs old after all.

lol i used to be like you running diabloII on 128mb ram. i lagged a lot like you. it probably was lag that caused the double cast who knows.

there has been a few open glitches about that double cast thing...i've only seen it once and the person said it was from high speed casting. i havent realy tested it myself cause i see no point in it really. pretty sure it wasnt lag cause we were the only 2 in the game and both of us use 3.2 gig processors on our old computers (known this guy since 4th grade). If you'd like, i'll ask Shawn how he did it..chances are he has no clue either. He does stuff at random and forgets how he does it.

It's not speed of cast, because I have tested with Single Player characters, and nothing, just faster hammers spitting out of your din, at the same distances as they normally do. I've tested from 1-1000 fcr and nothing, no double cast. Also the one clan memeber who was double casting, sees me double casting all the time, when I can't see me ever doing it, just him doing it. :p
Also can you please ask him, just incase it is not a glitch :p
Thanks Overdosed

seems you only tested 1 direction when you can go 2 with casting which includes other elements that can cause it to cast over. Shawn said he had -122%fcr with hammers on attack and when struck equipped so that might of been what happened. if you set the fcr to a near max to where it nearly crashes it also does the double cast but at the loss of dropping ppl from game.

The same thing happens when you do any warcry (or bo with other chars) a few times with a barb. You never see yourself double cast, but if you look at other barbs, it happens alot. When i first saw it, i tried to figure out how he did that for weeks. lol

kinda sounds like an image processing glitch as well. when i use diablo skills on my necro and i cant see it and others can. i know there were gaps in animations and i guess they're getting worse. some day they need to finish those animations.

Yeah, that's just as bad as the Failed to Join BS. It's been really bad lately, even on my friends computer which is an amazing computer, it still gets FTJ like every once and a while, if you ask me, It's horrible.

blizzard just needs to get a better service for servers. their refresh rate is about 3-30 minutes depending on their pings and they need to broaden out thier servers. they have production of the x series servers but running 3 times as many ppl on them than what the limit is supposed to hold. we got bored one day and pinged the server a bunch of times and out of 120 pings, it lost 39 packets so i'm guessing thier buffer is also overstuffed. they can easily fix it by getting a few more servers online and maybe get an AM2 or X2 series type of servers...heck. even finishing 1/3 of the skill images that they claimed were completed would lower the lag by at least 20%. i have half of those disabled when i run the game on older computers or my notebook when i'm at school tutoring people.
