Farm Torment Terror Domain at $player x

Run at the highest difficulty you can. These items are very rare and I have only seen Giant Skull dropped once.

Hi, Spazz!

After years of gameplay with multiple characters etc etc etc... I only found the Grandfather ONCE, with a Rogue. It was Diablo himself who dropped it, in Torment, with $Player 3 activated.

If you hit the Enter key (turning on the player chat, which has no use in Belzebub aside from this code), and then type $player"X", where "X" is a number between 0 and 10, the game will increase the difficulty by that much. It's supposed to mimic how many additional players are in the game, so 0 is default and 10 is really, really hard. You'll know it's worked if the line responds with "$Player X Activated."

It helps because when you're in a place where it's gotten too easy to grind, the added difficulty will help you get more experience and better items (from monsters only, the change has no effect on chests). It's suggested you advance up the difficulties slowly, as each level can bring about some pretty dramatic and damning changes.

thats kool..thanx...do you think it matters what player you are using to get loot? will a Necro ever see a Grandfather drop? or should i start farming runs with a Rogue like SkyrosX2 did?

It doesn't make a difference, no. A Necro or Sorc is just as likely to get a Grandfather as any other character. If you're farming for a specific item, all you can really do is ask where others have found it and try to emulate that. Skyros was probably just using a Rogue because his Rogue had the easiest time killing Toment Dibs. Otherwise just pick a character: if you want to farm for the highest-level gear, use you're highest-level character in the highest-level spot you can survive. It helps if that spot has a predesignated floor plan so you can plot efficient runs, which is where $PlayerX comes in: it allows you to increase the difficulty in a spot you know well and know you can take, instead of having to move on to something worse.
