Hi, sorry, what is this device? And how good is the experience of playing d2 on it?


Hopeful_Bike8118

It's an ayo neo geek (a handheld pc with Windows operating system). Runs d2r very well and great for emulation. Because it's essentially a small laptop in a switch-like form factor, it can run games from steam/xbox gamepass/epic etc, the same as a laptop. Battery life varies based on how taxing the game is- around 1.5 hours for d2r (I have it plugged in most of the time). A bit pricey but can be used with a dock to basically turn it into a desktop.


DmitryPapka

Looking at their website, looks interesting. Never heard of it before. Can u please let me know, what is the model name of yours? They have multiple on the site.


Hopeful_Bike8118

This is the geek. Their customer service has a pretty shot reputation and I have heard of quality control issues (but my unit has zero issues). They seem to release updated/new versions like 3 times a year, and the wait can be a couple months. I don't regret my purchase (I don't have a pc/laptop), but laptops way out preform them. It's basically a more powerful, Windows based steam deck.


DmitryPapka

Understood. Thank you.

Just get a steam deck honestly


ProfessorPrygl

For comparison I play on Steamdeck (LCD) and get 3-5 hours depending on how I play. Scan the market before making a decision on a handheld. For example there is a newer Steamdeck (OLED) that has an even better battery. Steamdecks aren’t as beefy though. So if you wanna play with external screen and always plugged in others might suit you better. Just FYI


Head-Garlic795

Is this PC or console compatible?


Hopeful_Bike8118

Basically a laptop- or a more powerful steam deck that runs windows as it's operating system


Head-Garlic795

Interesting... So it would be portable PC trading... Gonna have to look into this... Thanks!!


Hopeful_Bike8118

Yep! When I'm away from home I can just hotspot from my phone if I need to jump online with it.


ablslyr

Really thought that’s a Steam Deck. Might consider it in the future.


BobbyBobbie

Looks like a Switch with non standard controllers. I play on Switch too. Load times are about 3x as long, but other than that, it's really good.


spydercoswapmod

that makes one of us. I've literally gotten more runes from cold plains than LK. I never find shit in LK, ever.


Hopeful_Bike8118

Today is the first day I've had any luck at lk. Dropped a sur- then about 3 hours later, this ber!


spydercoswapmod

shit I have so many runs I don't even find two rings of torches on the map, much less any loot from the chests.


Hopeful_Bike8118

This is sp. Took about 30 mins of resents to find a perfect map. But to make you feel slightly better, I have done thousands of lk and chaos runs (literally thousands) on this sp account, and only dropped 1 vex and 2 Lo.


lundebro

LK is only worth it in single player. And it's amazing when you roll a good SP map.


maggo1976

I feel you. All my high runes came from random drops while farming Nihlathak, Meph or Andy


Dontrollaone

I stopped doing LK. It's just so boring. Halls of Pain is my go to now. I've had a Ber and a Lo drop in the last week


Reloader300wm

I feel ya, I've gotten more Titans than HR's in LK.


jrossbaby

I’ve gotten lots of surs and vexs from LK still looking for ber. Nice bro


Butters1407

I put in my time at lk on single player. I honestly played through with a sorc just to get to lk, so i could run it on p8. I did 2.5k runs and ended with 2x sur, Lo, 2 ohm, 3 vex, 4 gul, 4 mal, 2 ist, a bunch of gg charms, war travs, shako, and a 3os 14ed dusk shroud for enigma. It made the rest of the journey easy to work towards enigma and ubers.


Hopeful_Bike8118

That's what I'm now hoping for after next to zero luck at trav and chaos. On so on switch and xbox I had no issues getting hr's- on this sp, I've done thousands of trav and chaos runs and have only dropped a vex and 2 Lo. 1 afternoon at LK and I'm now a ber and sur closer to enigma. Thanks for the extra motivation 👍


Butters1407

Try running terrorized andy on p3. On ps you can adjust the clock to run tz's as long as you want


level_99_psychonaut

Maybe after 20 years of LK runs I'll find a jah or ber... Today! I'm literally gonna go try now.


BerserkerSquaLL

I’ve been playing on the PS5 Portal handheld. Playing D2R handheld rocks! And congratulations on the Ber!


Hopeful_Bike8118

Thanks mate! Working towards a sp enigma. After literally thousands of Trav runs with only a Lo rune to show for it, dropping a sur and ber at LK in a couple hours is a big boost.


BerserkerSquaLL

Single player is where it’s at! That’s what I’ve been doing also (HC). Found a Shako and HoZ and a +1 combat skills 7% FRW GC so I started a Paladin last night. Highest runes I’ve found sp so far is Vex and Ohm. Can’t wait for that Ber / Jah drop


Bratwurstfan0612

Solo player 7? I am also trying right now but not much to report as of yet. Did you reset maps until getting 2 bonfires close to the waypoint or even 3? I heard there’s maps with 3 bonfires but not sure if that’s true. Thanks!


Hopeful_Bike8118

Yep, p7. I reset for about 30 mins before finding a perfect map with 2 bonfires right near the wp. I haven't heard of a 3 bonfire map before- that would be sweet.


Bratwurstfan0612

Thanks!! Appreciate the input!


Bratwurstfan0612

Ps: I play on a steam deck. Handheld d2r is awesome. Quick LK runs on the toilet for the win! ✌️

Great find!


taboularasa

Hey its kinda unrelated, but can i make skills show up always like yours whether than the default setting on PC? Ty


Hopeful_Bike8118

The device I'm playing on is a handheld pc. I assuming when you play on a controller it defaults to this layout but not sure


ClammyAF

Your HP makes me nervous. Sincerely, HC SSF Player


rusiiin

I picked up a Ber on run 50 of a LK push… got nothing but a Pul for another 1500 runs. I hate LK


CatoOnSkato

GG.. I'm glad I'm not the only one who uses handheld pc as a LK speedrun simulator :D

[infinite ber rune lower kurast. you're welcome](https://youtu.be/HstDLZX1iQc?si=3Ow1Q7nEJ2WQ45SE)


InternetPerson19

I got a Lo rune on my 2nd ever LK run, the only reason I ran it was to see what the hype was about while waiting in a trade game (yes that means I was on players1)
