Updated on December 22nd, 2021 by Hodey Johns: Diablo 2: Resurrected is different from many of its rivals in that quests don't have markers on the map. This guide will detail exactly how to find the Monastery Barracks in Diablo 2: Resurrected, and where to locate the Hodradic Malus from The Smith within it. The Quest Log says this powerful tool can be found in the Monastery Barracks, but unless players have been doing a lot of extra exploring, they won't know where this location is yet. RELATED: Diablo 2: Resurrected - How to Reset Skills and Stats However players got the quest, there is only one way to clear it, and that's by defeating The Smith and collecting the Horadric Malus, then returning it to Charsi. The world is really yours to decide if you're just playing for fun.During Act 1 of Diablo 2: Resurrected, players will either pick up the Tools of the Trade quest from Rogue Encampment blacksmith Charsi, or activate it while exploring the Tamoe Highlands. If you want to be niche you could do pole arms like war pikes, ghost spear, or cryptic axes. Some weapons that are fun to imbue for end game are legendary blades, crystal or dimension blades, berserker axes, highland blades, Colossus blades, basically any elite blade you'd use for a runeword. Should be noted even the most GG imbued weapon is probably not going to outperform runewords(the odds are also astronomically against you) but you will have more style than all the other kids on the playground. So depending on if you just want to gamble on a random upgrade as you progress or save them for a chance at end game gear is up to you.

Only diadems are the exception because of a special stat called MLvl (magic level). But charsi imbue is affected by character level and I believe item level as well. Like others have said throwing weapons are pretty cool. Kinda depends on the type of build you're going for.
