Zero the Bash Barb has made it to Act III. Those flayers are miserable and they are dangerous too. Bash is not the best skill for killing dozens of pop-gun puffing pygmies. Ooooh, that was unintentionally poetic.

I got in a little bit of play time this morning, and I've hit Clvl 23, as well as getting some nice jewels, including a rare with +5 max damage and 1-14 lightning damage. I've also picked up a 3-socket leg and now just need to load up on Ith runes to fill it and gain another level, then I'll feel comfortable with taking on Duriel.

[Mordalles]

i did the 1st 4 quests of act. iceuver must now go to glacial trail and beyond. sacrifice is now maxed, and starting to put point in fanaticism.
next week i wont have much time to play, thats why i kinda tried to get far this week.

Well, it's been a good day for Zodzlut. Got through the remainder of act 3 last night, then through acts 4 and 5 today, and then killed the cow king. Currently level 36, and will probably do another level or two before heading to NM. I have found tons of uniques... almost none of which are at all useful ;) Though I did gamble a pair of Treads of Cthon, which have been nice. At the moment, my resists aren't quite maxed in normal, so I'm nervous about NM... the problem is I simply cannot find a good paladin shield. I keep hoping to find one with some built-in resists and three open sockets to make an Ancient's Pledge, but no dice.

I'm not sure how anyone is going to complete NM, let alone hell. Baal was a tough, long fight.

I agree with that. My goal is to beat NM and get as far in hell as I can get. It is going to be a long, tough road to glory though :).

I've made a little progress into Act 3: Completed the Golden Bird quest, found Khalim's Eye, and found the first waypoint. I'm taking it easy for now and staying on /players 1, but as a consequence, I'm leveling kinda slowly. Not a problem for now though, since I'm managing to stay alive quite nicely.

[Mordalles]

did glacial trail and gained a level and damage. i have a few plans for damage, lets hope they work.

I've gotten the next two waypoints and finished off the Gibdinn quest, actually got a decent ring for my efforts. I've filled my leg with 3 Ith runes finally, so between that and the jewels and circlet, my damage is good for now.

[arramor]

I killed mephisto. Now Diablo will surely!! My damage sais 14-152, but it gets more, because I fight with the werebear skill maul, so actual damage around 14-180.

Zodistic has reached Destroyer level. Baal was a loooong battle, but no scares. The Minion of Destruction, however, proved very difficult, with a NDE :(, but managed to survived somehow. I got very fortunate popping a cow portal right next to the Cow King's lair. And I held onto my 3 Iths, so now I'm entering NM with a 2-35 damage Wirt's :D . And wouldn't you know it, but good ole Cow King dropped a piece of his hide:

Cow King's Hide Studded Leather
Fingerprint: 0x40986c0c
60% Enhanced Defence
+30 Life
+18 all Resistances
16% CTC lvl5 chain lightning :(

Won't be using, but still a great find for normal cows. Which brings to question. Bob, are you okay with us muling items to other "non-tourney" characters? This happens to be the only cow king item I'm missing to complete the set. Just wondering. Anyways, looking forward to nightmare. Probably won't enter until lvl40. This has been an awesome experience thus far!! :clap:

-PP

[Mordalles]

well, iceuver killed the ancients and baal today, to go to destroyer status. now he must do the cows next, to get those extra points. his damage also got a bit of a boost.

Oh No.

Zero, the Bash Barbarian bit the big one. He was killed in the Flayer Dungeon by the inferno blast of a Soul Killer Shaman. He lived to be clvl 23 and was known for the high level damage of his Bash attack: 35-56.

The family will be receiving guests at Gheed's Mortuary and Fish Bait Store.

Seriously, this was fun - I learned a lot about the game by fighting weaponless and charmless, and then wirted and charmless. Thanks, Farting Bob!

That's enough for me, on to other tourneys and other adventures. Good luck to all!

Sorry to hear about Zero, bash barb definitely sounds like a challenge. Not much to report. I'm currently sitting at the outer cloister in ActI nightmare. The last baal run I ran in normal netted me a pair of Goblin Toes. The 25% crushing blow has been a tremendous help. So much so, I'm thinking of upgrading them if I can come across a shael hehe.

Oh, and pallies are pwning this leaderboard :D

I modified QD's entry since he said he's not participating anymore. RIP Zero
ffenliv: don't think there's any problem for you to join in now. The pallies have a headstart but its the end result that matters :)

Managed to find Swordback Hold in the viper temple. The 50% OW is of immense importance since I think my char can't increase her damage much further. Pity there isn't any resists on it.
Found the angelic ring as well. Maybe if I'm lucky, I can find the ammy before NM?

Well, they do for now, but I have a feeling that the enchantresses will give us a run for our money, once/if they get to higher levels.

Right now, there are 4 pallies, 3 barbs, 2 assys, 1 zon and 1 sorc. FOr all that talk abt enchantress getting through, we must all be gluttons for punishment :teeth:

I thought there were some meleemancers?

[Mordalles]

And dont forget about the druid, lying 4th! he might surprise us all.

my pally killed the cows, and lev to 40. i think ill lev to 45 before going on to nm.

I've gotten some playtime in tonight, so I've cleared Acts 3 and 4, Mephisto and Diablo were both crappy on their drops, though one of the council members gave me Sander's Taboo, just have to gain one more level to use it.

[thegrimreaper44]

i've given up on my pally, i just dont have enough time to work on him but the tourney was pretty fun.

.:Mat:.

[farting bob]

Well done for those already in NM, bad luck to all those who have died (remember, as long as you werent a destroyer or above, you can re-enter)
answering a couple of questions..
@ ffenliv: Sorry, but the tourney has been running for a couple of weeks now, so i dont think i can let you in. sorry.
@ poopie_pants: yes, your allowed to mule off to other characters / stashes.
After this tourney we should get the highest lvl characters and MP with them. that'll be so much fun. An army of legs...

Andariel has fallen :). Stuck around in ActI for a couple more levels doing some mf runs. Found a MeatScraper unique Lobacher Axe for my Act II merc. He was very happy. A gold ring also dropped from Andy, but was only a nagel :(. Still, the mf% was high (28). Resistances, with the exception of fire, are still not maxed. Still waiting for that 3os pally shield with resistances to drop.

@FB: some mping with the characters that are left at the end is a great idea. Let's all go out in a blaze of glory!!!

I've saved Anya, of course she didn't give me a good reward, but it doesn't matter too much, I like the circlet I've got for now. Time to move on to Nihlathak and then on to the Ancients and Baal.

.:Mat:.

Well, it lasts 8 weeks rite? Keep the char and maybe you can get back to it later.

I gambled a magic circlet that gives +6 to max damage but otherwise nothing much. Thinking my end-game armour's probably gonna be something like a jewellers armour of the whale/life everlasting with 4 resist jewels.

Well, going through NM now. My big problems are resists. I think I have one at 50%, and nothing else above 35ish... and fire is only 17%. I generally like to enter NM with maxed resists, so this is scary. The problem is not that getting resists in an untwinked tourny is hard: it's that damn prohibition against CTC mods. It has ruined every decent rare I've found or gambled. I gambled a pair of 38% Fire Res, 20% FRW, 21% MF boots last night... with a chance to cast nova. Drat. Still, it's making things fun and interesting.

One nice thing: Atma actually gave me a nice ring, for rescuing Cain. Three resists, two over 20%. Not fire, though, the one I worry about most. Oh well.

I feel your pain skunk. I've found some nice rares that have been axed by the CTC :(. My resists aren't terrible (wearing ancients pledge), but I could still use a boost as I head into Acts II-V. I ran Andy a couple more times this morning, and she dropped a Waterwalks :D. I'm torn between using them, and keeping my Goblin Toes on. The crushing blow really makes things easier. Maybe I'll use the Goblins for switch on tough bosses, and use the WW's for regular use (the mods are really nice). My ActII is lvling right along with me, and is pretty much carrying me right now, with his shiny MeatScraper lol. I keep hearing him laugh behind my back as I pull out my peg leg :p .

[skunkbelly]

I have the runes saved for an Ancient's Pledge, but I can't find a $*#^@)! three-socket paladin shield with good resists (right now, I'm using a rare bone shield with high blocking, +1 pally skills, and a perfect diamond). I'm sure I'll find one one of these days, but for the time being, I can't find one *at all*, let alone a good one. It's infuriating, and I intend to take my frustrations out *frequently* on Andariel, once I find her :)

I did craft a pair of blood gloves, and got lucky with 9% CB. But no resists, and the other mods are awful... but the CB is a nice help.

Nihlahthak is dead. He was more annoying than anything else, since he kept chilling me and teleporting away. I've been running Eldritch quite a bit, and he was nice enough this morning to drop me Sigon's shield, which I will be promptly socketing with a perfect diamond once I get one. My resists aren't maxed at the moment, but I can correct that easily enough with a few more points in Natural Resist. Usually, I'm not too worried about resists at this point in the game anyway, but I'm also usually gathering a good collection of charms by now. That's been more of a concern for me thus far than the CTC restriction.

I too killed nithalak, still can't spell it. It seems the pallies are way ahead, then follows the brave Behlokt and EB, ... then a mother of a gap, then the rest. I think the pack below contains our winner .. hmmmm. For now my money is on Iceuver (Mordalles).

Well, I am gonna go kill the ancients now, grrrr.

But isn't a Tesladin not allowed, since holy shock isn't allowed?

[ffenliv]

I didn't think it would be, but I thought that I saw another one somewhere. I must have dreamt it.

I guess that kills my entry. No way am I starting over now.

Ok, so upon reviewing my build, i'm not so screwed. I had saved most of my skill points since i was terrified of making a mistake (sort of like I almost did)

Can someone add me to (or show me how to add myself to that cool little table/list thing .. never used the vbcode much).

Yeah, I love the OW on my shield but with no resists at all, I don't see how I can even stick with it for NM.

Ormus actually gave me a ring I could use. It had +1 to max and +2 to min which was cool. I also gambled a rare circlet with cold damage.

What do people think is the minimum damage required for Hell? I don't foresee myself even doing 38-343 damage and having maxed resists etc at the same time.

Btw, who's the guy using venozod? Haven't seen an update for a while.

The Ancients, Baal, and the Cow King have all been defeated. For the most part, all were fairly easy, though Baal took a while and I used up quite a few mana potions on him. I picked up a very nice Barbarian helmet from the Cow King, except for having low defense. But since it's rare, I'll hold on to it and upgrade it once I can get the runes. Hopefully I'll find some more good jewels so I can upgrade my armor without losing the damage from its jewels.

Duriel has fallen. Played the entire act comfortably on /players 4, with the exception of Dury himself. The drop was horrible, but I managed to find Magnus Skin Sharkskin gloves on the way :D. I also crafted these:

Bramble Clutches Sharkskin Gloves
Fingerprint: 0x295af2b5
Defense:39
10% Chance of Crushing Blow
1% Life Stolen per hit
+14% Fire Resist
+20 to Life
+19% Magic Find

I'll probably stick around in ActsI,II to get my resists up a bit more before tackling Act III.

[skunkbelly]

Those are some nice gloves :) And Magnus' Skin isn't a bad back-up to have, either.

I got up through the Countess last night (just played for a little bit). I'm trying to decide whether to run her for a while, in hopes of scoring a few Sol runes... a 3xSol leg would be greatly preferable to the 3xIth leg I'm using now. I think I might get to Andy first, though, and hope that she drops me something useful. And wow, do I want my act 2 NM merc. Just can't decide between Might and HF.

[ffenliv]

If i just reply to a post with that cool table in it, and edit my own data appropriately ... will id display properly?

/hitsselfintheHead DOH, you know I never really bothered to look at what Sol's mods were in a weapon until you mentioned that Skunk. Hell yeah, that's a great idea :thumbsup:

Yeah, I think I'm going to go with Magnus and Waterwalks, and use the crafted gloves for mfing. Or am I getting too caught up on the IAS? Fanaticism is maxed right now...

to ffenliv, yeah just click reply on last guy with a table, and insert your own stuff. but keep a lookout for number of spaces between each category, using the headers as reference.

My werebear behlokt killed ancients, and is on his way to baal. i already leveled up for him to level 40. i need more socketed items though, so i can get more damage. i have a ton of min/max damage jewels, but no where to put them. i guess my ithithith leg will have to do for now.

Um, this is embarrassing. SchizoBoy is dead. I'm going to chalk this up to operator error. I went into the Catacombs at level 12, which might not have been the best idea. There was a boss pack of Extra Strong Rat Men waiting at the door to Catacombs 1, and he got surrounded and couldn't get back to the entrance. Oh well, this is the end of this tourney for me. Good luck to the rest!

I left your char in Cattleya just to know the participants :)

Finished off Meph and Big D with 70% mf and got my 2nd igorsting and swordback hold. It took me abt 10mins just standing there constantly whacking away. No real danger as long as I keep gulping potions.

Skunkbelly: I don't think a HF merc is allowed so its might for you then.

poopie_pants: nice gloves there. I finally found another gem shrine and with my new Pruby, I crafted my first pair of (crap) blood gloves.

all act 2 merc types are allowed, except thorns if using bone wall or prison

Yes, the Holy Freeze mercs are allowed. Originally, he said they weren't, but changed that later. Post #117 is where this is from.

@ffenliv - I added your score to the table. I don't want to be the meanie here, but farting bob did set an entry deadline, which has passed, and stated that he wouldn't be letting you in. I hope he changes his mind on this, I'd enjoy more people in the tournament.

Anyway, my update, I've made it to the Inner Cloister waypoint. The Countess was kind enough to finish the runes I needed to cube a Thul to upgrade my helmet, and I've finally given up my old circlet (1-84 lightning damage) and armor (+8 max damage, 1-14 lightning damage) for a nice barbarian helm (+1 all warcries, increased speed, iron skin) and 3 socket armor with better defense. Though only one socket is filled at the moment, and as such my damage is suffering for now (but min is going up thanks to ring and jewel in armor). No Sols yet, but I haven't had the patience to run Countess yet for them.

[Corrupted]

I wouldn't mind joining either, but I guess I'm too late ;-]

[ffenliv]

Hmmm ... I must have missed that message where he stated I wouldnt be allowed in ... that'll teach me to read more thoroughly ... could have saved myself the trouble of playing up a now useless character.

Thanks for adding me to the table, but you may as well take me right back out.

Hmm, is something roaring at me? Well, hold your nose, Andariel left a burning stench behind. And no good items either. Nothing special to report here, finished off Act 1, and now I finally have my Holy Freeze merc. Time to move on to Radament and being hunting Duriel.

Meph has fallen, although had a NDE :(. Sometimes you think you're going fine against that beast, and then CB/hit/hit, and my health went from full to almost nothing. Managed to escape and then finish him off. Not much else to report, except that I'm now using a 3xSol'ed Leg. I'm going to go back to Acts I and II for a bit to MF, and see if I can't get my resistances maxed before heading into ActIV.

I've also gotten 3 Sols and a new leg, so my damage has improved. Still not great, but it's enough to kill things without too much trouble. I've gotten up to the waypoint in Halls of the Dead (ugh, I hate fighting through reviving undead, especially with NINE Hollow Ones in one area). Anyway, that's enough for me for the night.

[farting bob]

Well done for all those people getting into nm, it does look like a pally parade, hoping that others can catch up.
I was thinking today of giving a secondry award (sort of a fun mini competition but with no prize other than a hearty congraulations and a IE cookie) for the highest average damage achieved (based on the charqcter damage screen). I know this willfavour those who are high level themselves, but if you know you arent going to be winning near the end then its something intersting to aim for.

yeah, got a 3-socket sol leg also, after countless countess runs. got some other nice runes, like io. so, now my average damage is much more than it was.
now, off to smith and andy.

fb, yeah, i like this 2nd prize idea, since im currently in 1st place for that! yahoo.

[arramor]

how about giving a prize for the best non-paladin? :)

...

on second thought, scratch that, the paladins will all surely fall!! MUHAHAHAHAHA!!! Behlokt will be the winner!!!

[farting bob]

Just a friendly reminder to those who havent updated in a while, please if you have made progress please post, since if you wait until the last day to post your high level entrant, people will not be happy and it'll taint the competition. Its not essentual that you post, but it'll help a lot.

[Sint Nikolaas]

I did a breakdown somewhere in one of these threads and I still believe Lucky_Seven has the best chance of ending on top. However, the paladin has one big advantage: he will be doing physical damage, which is of more use in hell then a single element.

I've cleared through the Viper Temple, and it's time to stop for the moment. I've picked up a very nice set of gloves, Lava Gout, which are helping out quite a bit with my growing attack rating issues, and have much nicer defense than the Sander's gloves I've been holding on to. Hopefully, the little barbarian in second place will outlast all of the paladins. I certainly won't be winning the damage competition, but I've got a nice enough chunk of life and good crowd control, so hopefully I won't die too easily.

OK, well, didn't have too much time to play this weekend, but I did get past Andy, and up to the Far Oasis waypoint. My biggest liability at this point is my lightning resistance, which is still only 30. Kind of nervous, heading into Maggotland with that.

And this character, like all untwinked characters, is cursed: finding plenty of sets and uniques, none of which are at all useful for this character. Whitstan's Guard and Visceratuant are the most recent "too bad I didn't go Enchantress" items. Oh well.

One nice thing: I found one Sol rune (from a random monster, not the Countess), so now I just need two more and a 3-socket Leg, and my minimum damage will take a nice leap.

sorry, corax, didnt know. just assumed since youre still lev 1, you only entered now! haha. sorry.

well, i did the complete act 2 today, and gained a lot of damage! only problem is, i dont have any life leech, and every hit with sacrifice takes 8% health, that means, due to my high damage levels, im slowly killing myself. plus i have only around 430 health. i have to drink potions constantly. hopefully i can get lifeleech quickly. been gambling for rings. dont really know where to get life leech? im kinda vulnerable.

hmmm... being the only druid inspires me, that's right, I'LL NEVER DIE, YOU LOT! GRRRR!!!! :)

I killed baal finally. My merc didn't die once, and I only had to go to town four times. my act 2 merc's damage is currently at 93-256. I also cleared the cow level, now I am levelling for NM.

My werebear skill is maxed, and maul skill at level 10. I'm still also tanking up lynthingy and life spirit. I have plenty of life and defence, let's hope behlokt holds out in nigthmare.

Just updated my entry again since I think someone updated an older table *grumble*

I'm torn between doing physical damage and elemental damage right now. Guess it would depend on the jewels I find.


I was thinking today of giving a secondry award (sort of a fun mini competition but with no prize other than a hearty congraulations and a IE cookie) for the highest average damage achieved (based on the charqcter damage screen).

I guess no prizes for me then :) Why not the reverse, give it to the lowest average damage achieved for a Destroyer/Guardian.

Been a good day for Zodistic. Ran Meph about 20-25 times, and picked up a few nice items, including Nat's boots and helm, as well as a Hone Sundan for my merc. Damage dropped a tiny bit after finally getting rid of my rare circlet. With all my resistances maxed, Act IV proved not to be too much trouble. The Sanctuary was very scary, but I let my merc do most the killing :D. The forge drop was awful (Sol) :(, and Diablo wasn't much nicer (4 rares, none useful). But I survived, which is what I care about most. On to Act V.

Hmmm, it appears that my update from last night vanished. So I'll try this again. I killed Duriel. No good drops, but he wasn't much of a challenge, just a long fight. That's been the case for a lot of the tough battles I'm fighting, mostly that my damage is low enough that they take forever to finish. Anyway, I'm probably going to start in on Act 3 after work today.

I have entered NM.

I am really curious Lucky_Seven, I might have been mistaken about the enchantress. That's a lot of damage. What skills do you use, and/or synergies? Please tell.

Zodistic has fallen :(. I have no words to describe the empty feeling in my stomach right now. That gut-wrenching last cry from Zodistic came as I turned the first corner in the Halls of Vaught, going after Nhilatek. Sadly, I cannot even say that I died at the hands of the evil sorcerer, but rather helplessly choked on the venomous spit that came flying out of the mouths of an angry minion of Tomb Vipers. And as is usually the case, I did not have time to even realize what was taking place before the horrid message of "deeds" popped up onto the screen. I could have played those last 10 seconds in that lair 1,000 times, and the results would have been the same :(.

Thanks FB. This is the most fun I have had playing D2 in a long time. I learned much about the strategy of the game, and will challenge the characters I play more as a result. I have no regrets, other than that I didn't survive to the end of the tourney in order to MP with some of the other wirt-yielding warriors. Oddly, this is one of the first tournaments I've ever entered into, but it shall not be the last :). I wish the best of luck to all the other participants, I'll be cheering you guys on these last few weeks. Mordalles, Goltar, bring it on home for the Pallies.

RIP Zodistic. Very good job making it to Act 5. I can sympathize with the feeling very well, my weaponless assassin died in Act 5 NM as well, to an unexpected series of charges from Salamanders.

Baal fall this morning and droped a green Ring (Angelic Halo).

Arramor:

Warmth - 9
Enchant - 20
Fire mastery - 7

I have a magic Staff with +2 Frozen armour and +2 enchant.

Before Level 30 was a very slow progression(Players1), After Fire Mastery i've got a big boost in damage, and now is only a slow progression(Players1)

Now i need some Shael's to hit faster :(

Zodistic RIP.

[skunkbelly]

Alas! RIP. But take heart: you're so far ahead, you may win yet! After all, in order for you to be out of the running, one of us has to overtake you ;) That could be a tall order.

Funny... I usually whirl through the various levels of Nihlathak's temple as quickly as possible, to get my silly personalization quest reward (cheesy, I know) and get it over with. But I have a feeling my pally will spend a loooong day in there, inching along as slowly as possible. Blech. Assuming I even get there, that is!

Nith has fallen after a very scary battle. I basically drank a potion each time I heard a corpse explosion. Finally managed to equip a pair of blood gloves and boy does 5% crushing blow make a huge difference.

Wait for me, pallies, I'll slowly catch up with ya.

zodistic, really to sorry to hear about youre death! you were really looking strong! i will try to keep the pallies name up. dont worry though, if we want to beat you, we will have to reach conqueror status! and that is a VERY tough ask.

i killed mephisto in a very wierd fight today. i just stood there, tanking mephisto, while may merc killed him. problem is, i do TOO much damage, and thus lose 8% with sacrifice, which is killing me faster than i can heal! i need lifeleech!!!! im gonna start looking at crafting or something, cause i jusrt aint getting any good drops. never crafter before im my life, so hope it is possible to craft some nice leech rings.

lets show them skunkbelly, what pallys are made of if one of their comrades fall!

Mephisto has fallen. I had a close call with one of the council members, I wasn't paying attention and the FE death explosion nearly ended it for EB. Time to pay more attention to FE bosses, especially when my life is already low. I'm not really worried about Iron Maiden when I get there, since I can switch to Berserk. Though I should probably also try a bit harder to get some life/mana leech somewhere. Most of my drops this time were crappy, but I found what would be the perfect drop: +1 warcries grand charm! :D Unfortunately, since charms aren't allowed, I can't enjoy this bit of happiness. :( I also got a +8 minimum damage jewel to fill another empty armor socket, so my damage is improving. :D

I've some Baal Runs (p1) for XP, I'm Cl 44 now.

After 44 i've done 3 cow runs (didn't kill "The King") and after some barbecue, i've got a Shael :D, i need 3 more :( another 2 for leg and one for Rhyme.

[poopie_pants]

Most of my drops this time were crappy, but I found what would be the perfect drop: +1 warcries grand charm! :D Unfortunately, since charms aren't allowed, I can't enjoy this bit of happiness.

About fifteen minutes before Zodistic fell, Anya fitted me with probably the best "reward" item I've ever gotten. It was an Akaran Rondache shield. 192 defense, +1 to all Pally skills, 10%/15% increased chance of blocking (however that goes), some enhanced damage, +70ish to AR, and 2 open sockets (which got filled with p. diamonds immediately). It was like Visceratuant meets Mosers' Blessed Shield lol. It was the perfect "untwinked" shield...needless to say, I could not help but mule this off of my corpse to use for other characters :D.

Oh well, a little story I thought I'd share. I've been checking in to see how everyone is doing. Nice job with Meph Goltar, and yes, be careful of those FE's :). Coxa, looks like your enchantress is coming along nicely now. Watch out leaderboard.

[farting bob]

Bad luck poopie, but as others have said, your still in the running. someone will either have to get into hell or get to act 5 with a lower level than you, or you will still win.
Lucky_seven seems to be coming on very good, almost guareenteed the highest damage prize already. :p but of course to win, he'll need to stay alive a bit longer.

im glad to say that iceuver killed diablo today!! yeah! it was a medium fight, with my pally taking around 75% of dialbo health, and my merc around 25%. just before the fight i gambled a lot, and eventually found 2 3% life leech rings which helped quite a bit. a plus 5 to min damage on one ring also took my damage beyond 600 now.

must say that that enchantress is doing a LOT of damage. thats amazing, and she is only lev 44. must be cause our skills takes percentage of base damage, while hers is just + certain amount of damage, irrespective of base damage? am i right.

fbob, if say, i kill nithi, which means ill be one quest further than zodistic, will that mean im in the lead, or will you look at lowest lev? i would think that looking at who finished the most quests in an act is the tiebreaker?

im asking this, since im not really to confident about taking on the ancients!

Baal has fallen and left me the unique trident. There's no life leech on it but I think it'll suffice until I get to act 2 NM for an upgrade.

Stupid question time, how do we open the cow portal? the only way I figure is to use my current wirt's leg to open the portal then pick up a new one at Trisdam. If so, my damage for cows just dropped back to 2-26!

I'm definitely going to win any awards for lowest damage possible, NM and I'm not even doing more than 100 damage :)

Girl power!

Drop your Wirt's Leg in town. Go to Tristram, pick up a new leg, and use it to make the cow portal. Then pick your leg back up.

Well done mordalles, hell is only a stone's throw away now.
As for the tie-break rules, it will be whoever achieved the score at the lowest level, regardless of quests done. if 2 people have the same score, and are the same level, then it will go down to how many quests they missed, with the fewest missed winning.
Currently you are on top mordalles, since you killed diablo at a lower level than poopie did.
As for the enchnt damage, yes, because it adds a set amount of fire damage, while your zeal works from your base damage which it multiplies.

iceuver killed shenk, rescued the barbs and anya, and also killed nithilack. the blow with which nithilack died took me to lev 62.

okay, fbob, so its all about who kills an act boss at the lowest level?
i was wondering, since if someone gets killed at ancients say at lev 64, then someone who just entered act 5 can stay in harrogath without doing any quests, and lead since he is a lower lev, say lev 60.

heres my suggestion:
if 2 people die in the same act, the one who got the most quests win, if they did the same amount of quests, then you look at who has the lowest level.

Well if the 2 leaders end on the same act with the same points it will depend on what level they killed the last act boss (and thus getting them the last points they got) so for your example, whoever killed diablo with the lowest level, regardless of what levels they gained after that, would win. Of course, this relies on people posting an update after killing the last boss, before dying. So please, if you are in contention for the lead at any time, please post the level you killed the act boss at. this will make it fair.

Nice Drops:D

Why Sol if you can use Ith and get the same Damage average?

I've seen others doing the same thing for me is just a waste of runes. 3 Sol's = Shael = Rhyme Shield :D

Sol -> +9 Min Damage
Ith -> +9 Max Damage.

I've done Andariel/countess runs and i'm a happy owner of a 2 Shael Leg an a Rhyme Shield.

Duriel fall at level 53

Best Drops:
2 Shael & Sol from countess Runs
A bladebuckle Belt from a monster outside the tower(funny ao good can be this simple belt when we play untwinked)
6 green rings (2 Angelics/4 cathan)
1 green amulet (Iratha :()
And a Silks of Victor (i can´t use it cause of str,is waiting in my stash for some use)

I've made Lore RW in crown and rhyme in a bone shield.

I need 20 more str cause i'v spend most of my points in vita.

In your case, it won't matter as much, because most of your damage is from Enchant, as opposed to a percentage of the leg's damage. However, Wirt's Leg has a base damage of 2-8. With +damage runes you get:

3 Iths -> +27 Max Dmg. -> 2-35 Dmg. -> 18.5 Avg. Dmg.
3 Sols -> +27 Min Dmg. -> 29 - 8 Dmg., but Max Dmg. must always be greater than Min Dmg. -> 29-30 Dmg. -> 29.5 Avg. Dmg.

That's why 3 Sols are better.

That's why 3 Sols are better.
As goltar said very well, if the +min damage would take it over the top of the max damage, then your maxed gets raised as well, making it better than just raising your max damage. Of course, on normal weapons that do not have this problem, the 2 runes give the same +avg damage.

Well, I finally got a good drop today... on one Countess runs, searching for Sols that just refuse to drop for me, she dropped me 2 Els and.... a Viper! 30%. Very nice indeed. Now if I could just get those Sols... and maybe a Shael for a rhyme shield...

I'm now most of the way through act 3... just gotta get the body part in the sewers, kill the council and Meph. Then it's onto act 4...

EB has defeated Diablo. Act 4 was not bad in terms of drops, giving me a few uniques along the way. The Hellforge dropped a Dol rune for me, and I only had one time when Iron Maiden caught me off guard. Diablo actually dropped something I can use, a nice set or rare war boots with 20% FRW and 39% cold resist. Anyway, time to move on to Act 5.

I got Cain. Unfortunately i haven't got much time to play at the moment, hopefully i'll play some tomorrow.

Looking at your damage lucky_seven, I ask myself? why even put the option of melee characters in the game? I mean it's bad enough that a sorceress is one of strongest range chars, but come on, now she's stomping in backyard of the poor barbarian. Pretty soon, the world won't need them barbs anymore. That's rather sad ...

Bob: how is the leader decided. Say one person dies at ancients in NM, and one dies at say Shenk the overseer. No matter their levels surely the one dying at ancients should win? He/she completed the most quests. As I understand you judge by lowest level to start a new act. But I feel one hole act is a bit much. Why don't quests count?

iceuver made it all the way to the ancients. i tried around 15 times to kill them, but my best was killing the polearm guy, but then i ran out of potions. so i had to tp. they kill my merc too quickly, and my attack rating is to bad to get some decent damage in. i dont hit often enough. i run out of health potions.

i guess i need better gear, but im not exactly sure where to go hunt for it. i did craft me some life leech gloves, but only got 2% life leech. also 8% crushing blow. dont know what thatll help.

Nihlathak has now fallen to EB. Anya gave me another good helmet, this time with +1 Barbarian skills, 5% AR bonus, and 1 socket. Time for a break, and then on to the Ancients.

Well, got my 3 Sol runes, which is helping enormously... although I find that I use Zeal much more than Sacrifice. I also had some terrific crafting luck, with a new pair of blood gloves: 5% life leech, 9% CB, 20% IAS, +20 life.

The main problem, as I see it now, is that this thing with the levels is going to make it hard. I'm now 54, but that's after killing Meph... EB just killed Diablo at 54, which means I need to do act 4 and 5 with as little exp gain as possible, to keep my level down.

WOOHOO! EB is now my first Conqueror ever. :clap: The Ancients were fairly easy, with Extra Fast, Teleportation, and Aura Enchanted - Holy Fire. Lister and friends were separated rather easily, so they weren't a problem at all. Baal mostly tried to annoy me to death, drawing my merc away with endless tentacles, but for the most part, he ignored me slowly wearing him down. He didn't drop anything good for me. I've used up my gambling luck for a good while, I got Hwanin's Belt, which has the very wonderful Prevent Monster Heal, but I have to give up a belt slot for it. I'm keeping it around for now, but my merc also has PMH, so I'm not going to use it just yet. Anyway, time for a short break, and then on to the Cows and Hell.

EDIT: Add Nightmare Cow King to the list of EB's victories. No good drops, but it's done.

[BFD]

I got Hwanin's Belt, which has the very wonderful Prevent Monster Heal, but I have to give up a belt slot for it. I'm keeping it around for now, but my merc also has PMH, so I'm not going to use it just yet.IIRC, PMH does not work on mercs.

[goltar25]

IIRC, PMH does not work on mercs.

It appears to have been working so far. Everything he attacks doesn't regen, at least not noticeably. I'll find out more when I start in Hell. Thanks for the info.

[sunbearie]

Looking at your damage lucky_seven, I ask myself? why even put the option of melee characters in the game? I mean it's bad enough that a sorceress is one of strongest range chars, but come on, now she's stomping in backyard of the poor barbarian. Pretty soon, the world won't need them barbs anymore. That's rather sad ...


We'll see if the sorc can make it all the way though first :)

I'm slowly making my way through to the countess. Meanwhile, P8 runs in the mansoleum (sp?) isn't yielding as many gems/runes as hoped for crafting. I've sold half my collection of jewels already.

EB has begun his final journey through the lands of Sanctuary. Despite the odd looks from the rogues at someone challenging the armies of hell with a leg, he has started proving himself to them, completing Akara's test and ending Blood Raven's defilement of the Burial Grounds for Kashya. Akara has now requested that Deckard Cain be rescued from the ruins of Tristram. The leg-wielding barbarian agrees to this task, and begins his preparations.

[atigdng]

Way to go goltar! Barbs rule! your damage may not be that high but they can certainly tank about anything. I am curious what your stats are and your equipment etc. I am affraid that you may be too low clvl for hell. hopefully you'll do some lvling.

If you could post a screenie that would be uber! Good luck!

[goltar25]

Yes, I am too low of a Clvl. But I am able to tank almost anything. Basically, I tanked the Ancients, Baal, and cows in nightmare, and have been able to decently tank things in hell so far. As for gear and stats, I'll post a screenshot later (I'm hosting mp right now), but here's a rundown (rearranged to be a shorter post):

1 Echoing, 1 Berserker's weapon on switch for prebuffing Battle Command, Battle Orders, and Shout. Once I can get another Echoing weapon, that will replace the Berserker's.

[LordMay]

WOW! After reading the entire thread(took a few hours) I realize how foolish I was for not entering the tourny. Aw well. Just reading your updates was highly entertaining. I'm hoping that Arramor takes it because I think druids rock and the bear cannot fall. As for everyone else, good luck in your quest to guardian for you will become a god upon completetion.

Oh and you stand a good chance of getting that silly rune:p

WannabeGoddess has killed the countess. In fact, she basically spent the night killing the countess, alas to no avail. Not a single sol rune dropped for her. She even levelled from lvl 38-40 just from countess runs.
Ironically, she does have a shael now. If only there was an un-cubing recipe! The shael will be saved for rhyme bone shield when(if) I get to act II.

The D2 gods are still mocking me :) I keep seeing items "meant" for other chars like this one.

Blood Torc, Amulet
Damage Reduced by 4, Fire Resist +6%, Lightning Resist +37%
+1 to Paladin Skill Levels

Still, something nice came from the countess:

Demon Slippers, Heavy Boots
+46% Enhanced Defense, Fire Resist +21%, Poison Resist +28%, 12% Better Chance of Getting Magic Items, 20% Faster Run/Walk

Its tough losing the 40% resist from saigons boots but thawing potions should cover it.

yeah, after leveling a bit, my pally could finally kill the ancients. one hit took my health down so much that i coulndt see the red, but quickly drank a full rejuv and was okay. baal himself wasnt much of a problem, and the cow king also fell quickly.

i must say, that im not really into trying to kill a boss at the lowest level possible, never was, and i didnt realize thats what its all about, since fbob only said that the one gets the furthest wins, in the beginning. oh well.

im also curious to know how goltar killed the ancients at level 60? i tried and failed about 15 times at lev 63? was it hard? did your merc die? did you have any problems with attack rating? i just cant see how you beat them? you must be the best diablo player ive heard of.
and, how is it going in hell. io see you already got 2 quests done. thats pretty impressive! especially for a melee char using wirts leg and only doing 300+ damage. thats not a lot. how much damage is your merc doing?

oh yeah, this is also my furthest ive ever gotten with a hc melee char!

I cannot seem to find any sols, i'm already level 47, and still no sols. grr. well guess i'll have to try again. :)


I'm hoping that Arramor takes it because I think druids rock and the bear cannot fall.

thanks lordMay, i'll sure try.


Yes, I am too low of a Clvl. But I am able to tank almost anything. Basically, I tanked the Ancients, Baal, and cows in nightmare

wait, wait, wait a minute, you killed baal at level 60 carrying only wirt's wee little leg, and having damage not half the leaders? That's pretty impressive. I have ample times played with barbarians. I must be doing something wrong then, cause a barb just can't do that... with a leg. You must be the best diablo player i have ever heard of. Is it just me, or doesn't anybody notice what this man just did?!!!!! And so quickly, do u just run through levels avoiding contact? Wait, don't tell me, your merc does 3000-4000 damage?

Well done to Mordallas and goltar, we now have 2 competitors in hell! :clap:
As for goltars low lvl, low damage dealing baal kill, it can definitely be done, i just think it would have taken him a while. Ive had 30 minute battles with baal with some builds, and i wouldnt be surprised if his was at least 20 minutes long.

Hear hear, it basically took me around 20min to kill normal Baal. NM Baal would take longer. I've had 2h battles with diablo and Baal before.

[farting bob]

Hear hear, it basically took me around 20min to kill normal Baal. NM Baal would take longer. I've had 2h battles with diablo and Baal before.
What build were they with? my longest is 33 minutes against normal baal with my pyschic hammer sin on a baal run where i forgot to lower it from P3, and because i had more mana than life his blood mana stopped me from doing anything for 80% of the time. basically had to relie on a underpwoered merc and shadow warrior. *yawn* that was boring.

[sunbearie]

For normal Baal, its normally when I'm untwinked and melee, my sin IIRC. she just couldn't stand there and tank him, the shadow master was useless and I basically relied on a lvl 1 lightning sentry to finish him off which shot all over the place because of tentacles and Baal clones.

NM D would be my WW. Had maxed fury and dire wolves but they just kept vanishing and I run out of mana. I myself just died when he threw flames at me. It was a vicious cycle. Fight, die, recover body, buy potions, run in circles, dash in for fury, try and dash out, he casts flames, I die, repeat cycle. Add in I'm frozen somewhere in the cycle. I didn't drink thawing potions at the time. :)

All at P8 of course. I almost never use a lower setting in normal and NM.

Tidied the table a little more ;)

As to how I got through at a low level. First, I'm not specifically trying for a low level, but I'm not levelling any more than necessary. I'm not doing side areas, though if I'm feeling brave I may run Hell pits a few times. I run areas/monsters as little as possible (one NM Meph run, a few normal and nightmare Eldritch runs, and quite a few Countess runs).

For the Ancients, I was Clvl 59 when I fought them, and Clvl 61 when fighting Baal and Cow King (and was only a few lines away from Clvl 62 after killing Cow King). I survived by having lots of life (approx. 1500 IIRC for Ancients) and defense. My merc as a consequence also has high life, approx 2000. His damage is slightly lower than mine, but he has 100% Deadly Strike, so he does probably around 500-600 per hit IIRC.

My main goal from the beginning of this tournament has not been killing quickly. Rather, I'm focusing on outlasting everything I come against. Thus far, I have succeeded in this. Most of my battles are long battles. IIRC ~10 minutes for NM Ancients, and at least 30 minutes for NM Baal. Blood Raven was almost as long, though that was mostly because she kept running away through hordes of Hungry Dead, and my Clvl/Slvl is too low for Howl to work in Hell. Now, I'm proceeding slowly, and once I hit an area too tough, I'll stop and level then.

EDIT: I've also been on /players 1 since midway through Act 2 normal except for some of my normal Eldritch runs.

EB set forth once more from the Rogue Encampment. This time, his first goal was the Tree of Inifuss, where he sought the Scroll of Inifuss. Upon reaching the Dark Wood, he quickly found the Tree and retrieved the Scroll. After a romp through the woods, he found a waypoint and returned to the Rogues to show the Scroll to Akara. With the Scroll translated, EB was finally able to go to Tristram and rescue Deckard Cain, which he did immediately. While seeking the Scroll, he happened upon a book that spoke of an evil Countess. Now that Cain was saved, EB decided that the Countess would be his next goal. And so, with the Rogues beginning to respect the power of the leg, EB takes his rest for the day.

Also, as requested, here is a screen shot of EB's stats:

just gained a level. and some damage.

eb, i see that youre going to the countess. one of my main concerns in hell is dealing with physical immunes (ghosts in tower!!!), since i didnt expect to make it to hell, so i didnt plan for it. how are you gonna handle them. at the moment, im thinking, RUN. but in the tower there isnt a lot of palces we can run! :confused:

oh yeah, you said that you dont do all side maps or something. you did get all the waypoints, right? :D its a rule.

FB, thx, didnt epect to make it all the way to hell, i must say, especially not with wirt's leg! but, onwards we will go.

Well, unless some strange insane urge grabs me I doubt that I'll be playing again... I don't have the paticence and unlike goltar who has no problem running past monsters or unexplored corners I have to kill everything in every little nook and crany. Funny thing is, I almost always go the way that you'd want to go (ie. stairs, wp, next area) 1st, rather than the other ways I'm just gonna have to go back and clear out. *sigh* The only repeatable "trick" I've found is that in the false tombs (this works in all underground areas of Act2) if you go in the direction that has the open doors it's most likely to be the way down to the next level. Other places (like nili's levels) the wp/stairs are always on the outer edges, find an edge and run around it like level's a dougnut. The rest is my screwy intuition.

Yes goltar has hit everyway point. He runs up, triggers it and runs off if it's inconviently located. *shakes head at all the stuff the missed monsters are just waiting to drop* He even used my special skill/curse in the NM magician quest (except it worked on the second stem he tried because he ignored the one I wanted for my 1st instinct at 1st. Silly boy.)

just checking! haha. :D thx fro the confirm.

[goltar25]

Yes, as water_moon said, I have hit all of the waypoints, but in places such as NM Halls of the Dead, I'll hit the waypoint and then get out of there. By side areas, I'm talking about places such as Ancient Tunnels, Stony Tomb, Swampy Pit, Abbaddon, etc. Areas with no waypoint, no quest stuff, and not a path to the next area. And in somewhere like Frozen Tundra, I can find the waypoint, and then go along one edge of the map all the way to the end, and fight very few monsters along the way.

As for physical immunes, I've got Berserk. I'll just have to pay a little more attention to my life to account for 0 defense. And if I do have to get past something that's causing me trouble (or annoying me like the Maggot Lair) I've got a point in Leap Attack, so I'll just jump over them. In normal, I think I only killed about 5-10 monsters in Maggot Lair, maybe 20-30 in nightmare, since I needed the levels more then.

*WannabeGoddess heard of a legendary warrier, EB who had passed through this way a moon ago. Immediately she rushed to finish off Andariel, reportedly the last woman EB had encountered. It was a cat-fight, both women slapping each other in turn, giving no quarter. Fortunately, WG had a faithful assistant who chipped in whenever he can.

In gratitude, once WannabeGoddess got to her destination, she ditched both her guide and one-time companion Durga. She simply couldn't resist the cold aura emitted from this new mercenary she met in the bar, she had to have him!*

Well, ironically, despite all the countess runs, I actually picked up a sol from a chest. My damage basically went up by 10, yipee :) I found another reason why I should have been a pally:

Bone Shell
Heraldic Shield
+5 to Strength
+37% Enhanced Damage
+77 to Attack Rating
Fire Resist +11%
Lightning Resist +11%
Cold Resist +11%
Poison Resist +40%
Attacker Takes Damage of 5
+21 to Defense (Based on Character Level)
Repairs 1 durability in 33 seconds

I also managed to find a 29% fire resist charm :)

Girl power!

Just so long as you don't use it ;) The charm, I mean... the girl power is all yours!

No time to play last night... perhaps today, Zodzlut will swat his way through Act 4.

well, i have bad news. iceuver died in the buriel grounds. after about 30 minutes of fighting with bloodraven and her zombies, a zombie killed me. just a normal plain zombie. kinda embarressing. guess i shouldnt have played when i was so tired! haha.

bloodraven summoned zombies quicker than we could kill them, and so every now and then me and my merc had to lure about 5-6 zombies away and fight them seperetaly outside the tombstone area. it was on one of these luring stages that i died, rather stupidly. a zombie hit me, i just looked at the screen, no reaction. he hit me again and my health was very low. i started to run (still not healing myself???), and the zombie got another hit in which just killed me! i have 4 full rejuvs in my belt which i just ignored!) also, bloodraven only had about a 10th of her health left, and was really almost dead. i just lost focus. really stupid. :confused:

well, didnt think i was gonna make it this far anyway. still really suspicious of goltar's progress, especially since he isnt really doing any damage. and dont know how he can get any hits in. :cool:

my final stats are:
lev 20 sacrifice, fanaticism. lev 10 holy shield. lev 15 (i think) redemption.
attack rating: 3199. (around 75% to hit)
defense : 2263 (chance to block 75%)
health 560 (this was my main problem)
resists in hell: 63/23/62/37 (could make it more, butopted for life leech on my rings and amulet)

good luck to the rest.

pc, the lowest level thing kinda spoiled it for me. :mad:

[farting bob]

Noo! very bad luck mordallas, getting to hell with the rules given is an amazing achievement, worthy of a water_moon cookie im sure.
R.I.P Iceuver. Now goltar, its yours to lose!

[goltar25]

RIP Iceuver. Good job Mordalles.


still really suspicious of goltar's progress, especially since he isnt really doing any damage. and dont know how he can get any hits in.

I'm really getting sick of this. First, I'm almost completely ignored (only paladins doing good when I'm ahead of one or two of them, or at worst in fourth place?), now I'm not trusted/believed. Maybe I shouldn't believe that a paladin using Sacrifice with low life should have been able to make it to Hell. Especially after having so much trouble with NM Ancients, with such a high damage.

If you're really that worried about EB's capabilities, I can send you the .d2s file and you can try him for yourself. Have you ever played an Iron Barb before? No, my hit chance probably isn't great (I'm at work right now, so I can't check at the moment), but since I'm using Concentrate, my attack CANNOT be interrupted. Battle Cry drops enemy defense by almost 50%, so they're significantly easier to hit, and do less damage to me when they hit me. By making efficient use of Taunt, Grim Ward, and Howl (when it worked, doesn't now), and my merc's Holy Freeze aura, I have absolutely wonderful crowd control. As I said before, it's all about survival for me.

Anyway, enough ranting for now, I feel a little better having gotten that out of my system.


Now goltar, its yours to lose!

Well, I'm hoping to get in some play time tonight, didn't get to last night, and the Countess is next. We'll see if EB survives his next challenge.

Chill, goltar25 :) I think the smilie at the end meant it was a joke. No one can downplay your achievement.

Of course, if my zon gets to where you're at now, people will be suspicious too since I probably have less ar, damage and crowd control compared to you.

RIP Iceuver. Mordalles, you're amazing in getting a martyr that far in the first place!

[goltar25]

Yes, I was rather upset then, and like I said, I've calmed down quite a bit since my rant. It's not aimed at Mordalles, he just happened to be the one to push me over the edge. I did overreact a bit, and I apologize to Mordalles if it seemed directed at him.

Once again, EB went forth from the Rogue Encampment, now in search of the Black Tower, where the Countess was said to dwell. After a trying journey, EB made his way to the chamber of the Countess. However, the Countess was not in her chamber. (http://www.geocities.com/goltar25/no_countess.jpg) Fortunately, she was not far away, and EB found and defeated her, receiving an Amn rune for his trouble. After this victory, EB moved on to the Rogue's Monastery, but along the way, his faithful companion Razan was viciously attacked and slain. Some strange force assailed EB and ruined his mighty leaping ability. Fortunately, he still remembered how to run. So he sprinted across the Tamoe Highlands, being followed by the enemy's legions. Fortunately, EB reached the waypoint within the Outer Cloister ahead of his pursuers, and returned to the safety of the Rogue Encampment, since for some reason these great foes are unable to traverse the mysterious waypoints. After resurrecting Razan, EB reached the decision that he needs to be better prepared before he seeks the Malus Charsi needs.

EB completed his preparations, and with his restocked supply of potions, set out into the Barracks. The Smith didn't want to die, but EB and his leg won out, and recovered the Malus. After returning the Malus, EB was ready to find the next waypoint and take a rest, but before he could rest, Cain gave him a quest to seek out and kill Andariel. However, this quest can wait, as EB is tired, and after finding his waypoint, a rest is in order.

Hmm, I totally forgot that I signed in for this. I'll still join with a assasin like I said in my initial signup, allthough I had a few "troubles" finding all rules now.

But if I remember/read correct, the basic-thumb rule is that everything that does damage other than the actual hit (EDIT: on the monster you are hitting) with the wirt leg is a no-go.

For a assasin that would mean only the skills Tigerstrike, Cobrastrike, BoS, Fade, Venom, CoS are allowed/usefull. All other skills are either area damage or claw related.

I'll have to think of a name first though.

RIP, Iceuver. But terrific job getting that far!

Zodzlut may not resume his fight against evil until the weekend... but luckily, there's a lot of time left before this tournament expires. And really, act 4 and 5 NM won't take too long... and I don't expect to last long in hell, so who cares? :D

@ FB: I would consider requiring all contestants to post an update soon by the end of the weekend. The leaders are doing a good job of reporting, but the folks lower on the list should follow suit... I'd hate to think someone is really among the leaders, but keeping it secret.

I'm coming for you Goltar :king: the crown is not yet yours :lol:

its comforting to see that i now have the second highest damage and it will keep climbing.

My leg atm has a perf skull and 2 sols. when i get a mana leech ring and find 3 new sols it'll be replaced by that. :D
thinking of running norm baal till he drops a skin of vipermagi, its tempting but i dont want to lose too much time on the leaders

OK, Zodzlut finally made some progress... I got through Act 4 as quickly as possible, but still gained nearly two levels in the process. The Chaos Sanctuary was SCARY. At least three close calls, due to IM... that's the bad thing about Zeal... if you get IM'd on hit one, you've got four more coming...

Anyway, Diablo croaked easily, once his legion of OK's were out of the way. And the best part: my hellforge quest gave me an UM. Woohoo! Now the big decision: is the chance to win a Zod worth risking the Um, or should I just dump the thing into my Atma stash for a character destined to live longer? If I didn't have two Ums sitting in the stash, it'd be an easier decision... I'll have to review my armor choices, and see if the Um would actually be good to use.

So with any luck, I'll have time to work on Act 5 some this weekend. I'm goign to have some company in town, though, so it might be hard. We'll see.

Grr... more IM just waiting for me in the Keep. Drat.

[skunkbelly]

OK, I covet that rockstopper :) And as for the shield... that's a real hard question. I think I'd go for max block over CBF, because with a sorcy, you can always teleport out of danger if you need to.

Of course, the Rhyme shield also has 6% better resist-alls, which would be a help in Hell... it's definitely a lot harder getting maxed resists, since charms are not permitted.

[poopie_pants]

RIP Iceuver, great job getting into Hell. The pallies are falling fast :(. This will be great to watch down the stretch between EB and Coxa...the predictions about the enchantress are starting to look more and more accurate. Good luck guys!!

ps - glad to see I'm still in top 5 :D

Well done lucky_seven, a third entrant into hell! It'll be interstign to see if your massive damage advantage over goltar can get you further, and him being very well in the defence area.

Ok everyone, this is really goltar25 posting. Since for some reason I am currently unable to log in, and water_moon is permanently logged in, she is letting me post this from her account. So here's my update:

Good going Lucky_Seven. Very nice damage there. Do you have any plans for killing Fire Immunes, or just teleport past them? I've noticed quite a few of them, and I don't know about you, but personally, I can't stand letting my mercenary do all of the killing (except with FE bosses, he gets to finish every one of those).

EB set forth into the depths of the Monastery tonight. As he went deeper in the Jail, and on to the Inner Cloister and Cathedral, his foes became stronger and more deadly. In the Catacombs, he noticed a foul stench in the air. Could this be caused by the evil Andariel? The only way to find out was to continue his journey.

Along the way, as he was returning to the Rogue Encampment to sell his finds to them, he noticed a weapon that could have some interest to Razan, especially being ethereal. He knew from previous conversations that Razan's people were especially careful with their gear, so it was basically indestructible. This weapon also had a great aura emanating from it. After asking Cain for information on this item, he showed it to his companion. Razan's eyes immediately went wide with joy, for he recognized one of the great weapons of his people's legends, the ETHEREAL KELPIE SNARE! :D

With this, EB and Razan set out once more to find and destroy Andariel. As they went farther into the Catacombs, the stench grew worse. Finally, behind a great door, they saw their target, surrounded by lesser evils. Fortunately, Andariel was in no great rush to engage this strange leg-bearing warrior and his companion. EB lured away most of her minions to their deaths, before Andariel herself decided to join the battle.

At first, Andariel decided that Razan needed to die. And die he did. However, unlike EB, Razan can be returned from the dead. So EB retreated to town and resurrected his friend, and returned to the battle with a new strategy. This time, he got Andariel's complete attention. The demon queen stubbornly continued to attack EB, but to no avail. In the end, Andariel was defeated, failing to destroy the mighty warrior.

The Rogues rejoiced at the news of Andariel's defeat, and once more allowed Warriv to take his caravan east. In pursuit of a new threat, a mysterious Dark Wanderer, EB, Razan and Cain joined Warriv on his caravan, to seek clues in the desert city of Lut Gholein.

Once again, this is really goltar25 posting, with water_moon's permission, as she is standing here watching me at the moment.

Woohoo, I managed to get logged in!

EB and Razan have reached the desert city of Lut Gholein. Hopefully, the Dark Wanderer, who Cain believes to be Diablo himself, can be stopped before he reaches Tal Rasha's tomb. EB immediately asks the townspeople for advice on how to find Tal Rasha's tomb. Amid the strange looks, a woman named Atma requests that EB avenge her son by killing a creature in the sewers. Seeing as nobody in town is willing to help EB yet, he goes into the sewers seeking the creature Radament. After wading through hordes of walking dead, EB and Razan find and defeat Radament. They return to tell Atma of its defeat, and she convinces the people of Lut Gholein that EB may not be all that bad, even though he is wielding such a strange weapon.

EB learns while there that in order to enter the tomb of Tal Rasha, he will need the Horadric Staff, which must be assembled. The pieces can be found in the desert near Lut Gholein. So he sets out, first seeking the Halls of the Dead.

did a quick dash through act 1 NM to get my might merc. got an amn from countess and shoved it into a rare lochaber axe for my merc, he's got a tancred skull and a 300+ def ancient armour.

cant wait till i get to a high enough lvl to gamble for +3 shadow circlets and ammies. anyone know what lvl i need? then i want to get up to nm anya and get some good claws


3rd highest you mean.

dead men dont bite mate :D and now with my might merc my damage is up to 2nd including RIP's

[water_moon]

cant wait till i get to a high enough lvl to gamble for +3 shadow circlets and ammies. anyone know what lvl i need? then i want to get up to nm anya and get some good claws


To gamble + 3 to skill you have to hit ilvl 60, you need to be around clvl 55 IIRC before you've got _any_ chance of seeing it gambling. Best bet is going to be 55-64. Or shop for the circlet after lvl 60.

EB has ventured into the desert. Most of the early journey was uneventful. However, he was in for a surprise in the maggot lair. It was almost empty. He had a nearly direct path straight down to the chamber of Coldworm, where the Staff of Kings was to be found. True to his style, he dashed into the chamber, grabbed the Staff, and exited through a town portal.

EB then headed further into the desert, seeking the Claw Viper Temple, for the Viper Amulet hidden within was the other piece of the Horadric Staff. On the way, a strange darkness befell the land. EB returned to Lut Gholein and consulted Drognan, who believed it to be the work of the Claw Vipers. Convenient, since EB was already seeking their temple.

Finally, EB found the Claw Viper Temple. He and Razan entered, prepared for the worst. At first, the vipers did not have a well organized defense. As EB went deeper into the temple, though, the vipers started appearing in larger groups, with more undead support. Eventually, EB found the stairs leading to their altar. Upon approaching the altar, he cautiously lured a few vipers at a time away and killed them. However, Razan's entire understanding of battle consisted of two things: "Mmmmm, corner :drool:" and "ATTACK!!!!". EB's attempts to prevent this were futile, and Razan found the viper leader Fangskin, and promptly attacked him, drawing the wrath of all of the vipers. Seeing the dangers involved, EB quickly leapt over the melee to the altar, which was poorly defended. He quickly broke the altar and took the Viper Amulet, then opened a town portal and went through, pulling Razan along with him to the safety of a once again bright Lut Gholein.

Following his return, EB has been asked to enter the Palace and search for the entrance to the Arcane Sanctuary. Here, he may be able to find the way to the tomb of Tal Rasha, and hopefully catch the Dark Wanderer before it is too late.

After a brief rest, EB went into the Palace to find the Arcane Sanctuary. At the bottom of the cellar was a strange blue portal, which EB decided to go through. Fortunately, it led to the Arcane Sanctuary. "One could get lost in here" thought EB, at seeing the bizarre world before him. However, unfearing, EB began to explore, seeking clues to help him find Tal Rasha's Tomb. Eventually, EB and Razan came across an insane summoner, who appeared to be guarding a book of some sort. After a brief fight, the summoner was eliminated, and the book free for EB to examine.

Upon reading the book, he found that the tomb could be found in the Canyon of the Magi. However, there were seven tombs in the Canyon, and only one was the correct one. The symbols found in the chamber where the book was located would show which tombs were the false tombs. Armed with the knowledge of Tal Rasha's True Tomb, EB and Razan went forth into the Canyon of the Magi.

The pair reached the true tomb without significant difficulty. However, the creatures within were another story entirely. Every battle was a long and drawn out battle, luring the lesser undead away from the Unravelers that could bring them back to undeath, or destroying their remains before they could be raised again. Razan was nearly useless against the Apparitions, but in his wonderful stubborness did not realize this fact. Eventually, EB found the place where the Horadric Staff would unlock the resting place of Tal Rasha, and proceeded to use the staff at last.

The pair entered the depths of the tomb, hoping to be ahead of the Dark Wanderer. However, inside, they found Duriel awaiting them, with the message that they were too late and Baal had already been released. EB and Razan fought a long battle against Duriel, but in the end, they defeated the demon. This opened the way farther into the tomb, where Tyrael had been held. The arch-angel informed EB that Diablo and Baal were going east to Kurast in order to free the third brother, Mephisto, and they must be stopped.

EB and Razan returned to Lut Gholein, where Jehryn agreed to allow Meshif to sail east, carrying the two warriors with him to Kurast. So the two continued their pursuit of the Dark Wanderer.

Upon arriving in Kurast, EB was prepared for another round of odd stares at his weapon. However, nobody seemed to think it overly odd that a warrior would beat his enemies to death with a leg. After meeting Ormus, he realized that it would take something very outlandish to disturb these people.

EB looked beyond town, into the jungles awaiting him, and saw the Dark Wanderer just ahead of him. He grabbed Razan and rushed out of town to attack, but the Dark Wanderer simply vanished, only to be replaced by hell spawned demons, which were easily dispatched. The pair decided that a rest was in order, and the jungles could be challenged afterwards.

No story for me this time :) WannabeGoddess "ran" her way through to the maggots lair where she got stuck. I actually lvled up twice while retrieving the staff.

Congrates on the progress guys :)

[farting bob]

Well done goltar, it looks like we could end up with a guardian out of this tourney, possibly several with the remaining competitors.
And corax, your damage went up from 617-618 to 675-676 when you got your might merc, that doesnt sound like too much. wouldnt it have been better to go for something like a HF merc? just a suggestion :)

HF mercs were banned IIRC
and besides that HF does nothing for me anyway as i can keep it to 1 on 1 fights for me due to CoS and the extra physical damage will be needed for Poison Immunes in Hell :D

besides, HF is for wusses

No, HF mercs are acceptable, but using the skill yourself isnt.

Act 2 and 5 mercs may be used. act 1 mercs may be used only in act 1 normal, and only if bowless. all act 2 merc types are allowed, except thorns if using bone wall or prison.
And i see your point about needing alot of physical damage in case of PI's.

I am now in love with CoS. "see that deadly pack of uber moonlords charging at us. now look they all tripped over their own feet." hahaha
even stops archers dead in their tracks.

Had a NDE in act2, radament was FE and thinking nothing of it i didnt worry about merc getting last kill, boom 46 life left :eek:
I only have ~550 health anyway.
Duriel wasn't very dangerous, only annoying as i had to keep feeding the merc healing pots and it was costing money.


@goltar: what sort of AR are you running around with?

[goltar25]

My AR is only at 2506, but my Battle Cry drop their defense by 56%, so I tend to hit a good bit. IIRC I was hitting Duriel about 75% of the time.

ok. what sort of defense and life do you have?'

atm im running with ~600 def, ~550 life, 2.7k or 2.9k AR depending on skill.
Skill points will be finished at lvl 71. and with a maxed CoS I shouldn't have trouble connecting either.


Kind of tired atm though so she will wait until tomorrow to venture into the steaming jungles of Kurast

[goltar25]

My defense and life are 3471 and 1883 respectively. My defense jumps to around 5000-6000 when I'm attacking (don't remember at the moment, and don't feel like hunting something to attack to find out). My mercenary is better off, with 5969 defense and 2921 life. I'd be much better off if I could use some of the charms I've been finding, I've found quite a few decent +life and +defense charms, as well as +1 Warcries back in NM. Oh well, they can be given to someone else who does get to use them.

My resists are where I'm concerned, my lightning resist is only 14 right now, and Natural Resistance is hitting diminishing returns, so I don't want to boost it more at the moment. But my main skills will be maxed soon, so it may get a point every now and then.

EB began his journey into the Spider Forest today. While he was exploring, he found a strange golden figurine. Cain thought Meshif might have some interest in it, so EB went to see him. Meshif was quite happy to see the figurine, since it completed his collection. He traded a golden bird for it, which Cain believed to be something of interest to Alkor. So EB went off again. Alkor took the golden bird, and in return, made a life potion for EB.

After his run around the Docks, Cain gently reminded EB of his mission here, and told him that he would need to assemble Khalim's Will in order to reach Mephisto. The first component to be found was Khalim's Eye, which was believed to be in the Spider Cavern. Hratli also mentioned that the flayers had stolen a magical knife, the Gibdinn, which was needed to protect the Docks from the growing evil. EB set out in search of both of these artifacts.

EB and Razan made their way to the Spider Cavern, and sought out Khalim's Eye here. It was easily found, since the artifact emitted such a glow that the chest it was in could be seen from far away. After this, the duo found another waypoint, this one in the Spider Forest, and decided that it was a good time to take a rest.

Just thought I'd ask what the tourney participants are planning to do with the Zod should they win. Would it sit in a stash, go into a BotD or some other uber ethereal item, or something else?

If I'm lucky enough to get it, it will be held until I have everything else needed for Breath of the Dying, probably in a bow, but I'm not certain yet.

To be honest, I'll place in order with the other runes I've got in the stash. Then I'll beg/borrow/steal the remaining runes I don't have yet(cham-gul), place a cracked sash with my name on itand take a screen shot. Alternatively, I might spell my name out with the 33 runes if there's room.

After that, I'll don't know.

Goltar can't wait to read about your fight with ancients, its gana be real chalange.If tourney will end before you manage to reach them, it would be nice of you to keep us updated anyway :thumbsup:

I'd be glad to keep updating after the tournament. However, there is one REALLY BIG assumption in there: that I will survive all that much longer. I'm encountering Gloams now, and with low lightning resistance, they're ripping through my health rather easily. I'm still surviving, but Find Potion is becoming one of my most used skills so I can keep a good stock of full rejuvenation potions. For the moment, I've got about 20 or 30 sitting in my stash, and may increase that and just leave my gems sitting on the ground. What I believe most likely to kill me at the moment is either a Gloam boss with Conviction or a physical immune fire enchanted boss, though those are easier to run/leap away from.

EB ventured out into the Great Marsh today. As he and Razan were exploring, they found another weapon of Razan's people, an ethereal Hone Sundan. However, Razan preferred his current weapon, so the Hone Sundan was set aside for the moment, sitting next to EB's stash, since it was currently full of potions. The pair continued on into the Great Marsh, finding the waypoint they sought. As they searched on for the Flayer Jungle, they fought many powerful enemies, even a Fire Enchanted creature that Razan's lack of tactics caused to explode near EB, almost ending his life. The mighty EB survived this blow, recovered, and moved on. As the two went further into the Great Marsh, EB began to feel a strange weight in the air. Shortly following this, he was attacked by more Gloams. Unfortunately, Razan had apparently attracted the attention of a large group of Gloams, who decided that EB must die. And so he did.

EB's adventures are now over, his body rotting in the Great Marsh, to one day return as a zombie to defend the great evils from another adventurer. His spirit wishes luck to all those remaining who would challenge the prime evils, that they may fare better in their quest than he did.

[farting bob]

Very bad luck goltar, that was a hell of a good adventure you had, especially considering the small amount of damage you did. It will be very difficult for anyone to beat your score, thats for sure.
I think you must have cursed yourself when you said this a few hours before dying

However, there is one REALLY BIG assumption in there: that I will survive all that much longer.

[Mordalles]

nooooo! goltar, you were doing so well. :clap: really un awesome achievement gettign to act 3 hell with only wirt's leg. really well done!

[goltar25]

I think you must have cursed yourself when you said this a few hours before dying

I should have known better than to say that. And I was about 3/4 of the way to my next level, and with that and a Tal rune I would have had Ancient's Pledge in a Monarch. Unfortunately, it was sitting out on the ground when I died, along with the Eth. Hone Sundan (agh, my first ever) and a 2 socket Dusk Shroud. Oh well, it happens.

goltar25, just for posterity sake, you should copy and paste your exploits into one thread. Your story telling ability is pretty cool. Save it and keep it to look back on one day!

[corax]

sorry about your 'deeds' goltar. thats why i run without my merc half the time.

That count still very well be a winning achievement anyway :D

whens the tourney end bob? the 26th?

[goltar25]

sorry about your 'deeds' goltar. thats why i run without my merc half the time.

If I had went without him, I don't think I could have survived all that well. He only rarely did things like that. Most of the time, he was relatively good about hitting the worst thing and slowing it significantly, between Holy Freeze and Kelpie Snare.


goltar25, just for posterity sake, you should copy and paste your exploits into one thread. Your story telling ability is pretty cool. Save it and keep it to look back on one day!

I may keep it for myself, but I'm not likely to do that. Thanks for the compliment, but personally my story telling ability isn't all that great, I had to struggle mightily to come up with what I did. Usually, I can come up with very imaginative scenes in my mind, it's just getting anything out that's the problem. I only did it because it seemed fitting for my first Conqueror ever.

[Gargame]

Oh man goltar, I've been cheering for you as a lurker. (I like barbs). My merc constantly does stupid things like for me, so I think you're lucky. It's amazing how far people can make it with a wirt's leg.

Edit: I like your storytelling style also. I think you should put it all together.

Sorry to see the death, RIP EB.

I collected the staff part, the amulet is next. Allthough I noted 13-32 as damage a TS (once every 7 hits with 100% leach, 4 if I skip leach) I can do something like 22-70 with 100% mana/life leach. It's BoS/CoS what helps me killing now, first comes darkness and death follows it.

It's kind of nice putting points into utility skills, I put like 3 to 6 points in each skill I wanted sofar. I just need to make sure at lvl 29 I have them all set so starting from lvl 30 I can boost venom. Damage could be a problem up to there, after that I could swap for 2 or 3 ETH's in the wirt for better AR.

you'll want Sol's in your leg, trust me. with only 2.5k AR and a decent CoS hitting stuff shouldnt be too much a problem

[sunbearie]

I agree, with a skill like TS, sols are probably the best thing to place in there.

yup. my dual sol'ed leg ( p skull for mana leech too) i do listed damage on the leg of low 20's. with 100 str and lvl 22 TS i do 300-400 damage with it

[Randall]

yup. my dual sol'ed leg ( p skull for mana leech too) i do listed damage on the leg of low 20's. with 100 str and lvl 22 TS i do 300-400 damage with it

I guess AR will become more of a problem in Hell, up to there I hope to get (and get around with) a 3PGem leg.

I would actually prefer a 3PGem leg to the 2sol/skull one. A comparison with the 2sol/pskull and a 3PGems wirt leg (based upon 4 hit rythm needed for TS):

2* Sol + Skull:
+18 * 1560% = 298.8 dam (only max) -> 149.4 avg dam each 4 hits

1PSap, 1PRuby, 1PTopaz:
+10/14 +15/20 +1/40 = +26/74
4 hits = 26/74 * 4 = 104/196 -> 150 avg damage dam each 4 hits

But the 3PGems have better average spread, requeres no skill/mana and is more stable agains immunes.

Randall

[corax]

When i get a rare mana leech ring I'm going to get another leg and put 3 Sol's in it, giving me more damage than the triple pgem once.

More Warrior's fallen to the devil forces :( RIP.
Things aren't good to the God Forces, evil demons are too strong in Hell.

I planned some Andariel runs but every monster there is FI Andariel died very fast, but took me long to kill every monsters in the way to her lair.
I've done some pit runs but to dangerous to my fragile char :(

I'v found an eth Cryptic Axe and give it to charsi to inbue i was lucky and unlucky:
Lucky cause it's 200 ED% unlucky cause have only 3 atributes and one is useless, almost a magic item.

Eagle Goad
Cryptic Axe
Two-Hand Damage: 154 to 679
+202% Enhanced Damage
+7 to Minimum Damage
Level 2 Stun (18/25 Charges)
Ethereal (Cannot be Repaired)

EB: The only way to deal with FI is letting my merc kill the monster or teleport away. I use teleport to position my merc near the monster i want to kill first. You run(ed) and jump(ed) i Teleport...

Radament fall fast but take me 2 hours to complete the quest, lots and lots of FI there and 5 Radament unique Clones together :( the good news is that I can direct monsters to a small passage al let my merc take them one by one.

I've found nice stuff i can't use :(

Small Charm of Vita
+16 to Life

Shimmering Large Charm
All Resistances +6

And this:
Plague Loop
Ring
+13 to Strength
+18 to Mana
Fire Resist +25%
Lightning Resist +27%
5% Chance to cast Level 3 Chain Lightning on attack ????? Why

It's time to collect the staff.

My progression is very very slow...

I killed old diablo, grrrr. Now its off to act 5.

Lucky_seven, thats a lot of damage. You know I have a Berserk softcore barb at level 74 fighting with Swordguard. He's got max berzerk and sword mastery. His damage only comes to about 2500.

What is the use of barbarians if sorceresses beat them at their own game ?! :)

playing with an enchantress seems like a loop hole in Bob's rules, in terms of damage, after comparing it with the others. :) Maybe not in life or other stuff. Whatever.

[farting bob]

Well Encahnt is allowed, because there was no reason why it should be banned. Sorcs arent designed for melee, and there lower def/life and suplimentry comabt skills means that although the sorc will be killing faster, she is much less likely to survive hell than a barb or pally.
And it looks as though only 2 or 3 people are still alive that can challenge goltars mighty position. Lucky_seven will have to get to complete act 2 and 3 to win, because of his level, although arramor and skunk are lower level, if they keep it up, they might tie goltar's score but with a lower level, which would be incredible because lvl 72 for mid hell is very low.
Corax better get his *** into gear if he wants to catch up.:p

[goltar25]

Don't forget that most of an Enchantress's damage is fire, and there are a lot more fire immunes than physical immunes. If Coxa's mercenary is defeated, there is no realistic way within the rules of the tournament to handle a fire immune, since the physical damage from Wirt's Leg alone is so low.

[sunbearie]

On the other hand, the merc is resurrectable :) I think the greatest test would be Hell Ancients. Basically once your merc falls, you're in trouble if one of them is FE.

Its obvious Lucky_Seven is gonna win the prize for most damage :clap:

I have a lot of catching up to do and RL is interfering. I guess the only way would be for me to power-rush thru to Act III Hell.

Her life is only 765

And resists are:
Fire 12
Cold 27
Light 16
Poison -37

As you can see she is very very fragile and my progression very slow, but have no shame to use Teleport to "run away".
goltar25 have a feeling he was immortal i feel very mortal everytime a monster hit's me :|
I have 8k AR ->Angelic Armour + 2 Rings (i kill andariel over and over but she refused to give me a Angelic amulet).

This my 3rd Enchantress my first HC, my other Melee Enchantress does 8k-9k Fire Damage.

Isn't one of the Ancients always FI in hell?

WannbeGoddess has defeated Duriel! He dropped just one rare crossbow which counts as the worse first drop ever for me in terms of no of items. How is that even possible. I had 150%mf as well.

I'm beginning to appreciate the fore-runners more and more. At lvl 48, I had 50% chance to hit duriel and 60% chance to hit a single monster in Act III.
I'm going to need to do some serious shopping soon. All my merc wears are armours/helms socketed with flawless topezs :)

A long way to go esp when I have no time to play but I'll beat Hell or die trying!

[arramor]

This challenge is getting tense :) grrrr.

I wish I had some more time to play ... i have a student project due 21st, grrrr. I wish i had more time.

Well done sunbearie, your damage makes even goltar look cookie-cutter!
Come on folks, not many updates recently. Youve got exactly 2 weeks 9 hours before the deadline, so get moving if you want a chance at that Zod!

Now i'm planning my "run path" to nithalak. I'm trying to keep my levels down.
I don't think i've killed a monster since shenk. (except for frozenstein group) :)

i'll sure try to play some more, but i have a student project due.

I took a day off from work to try and catch up :) Diablo has fallen after a long and tedious battle. I was lucky enough to get a lightning shrine there so I just tanked him while my merc handled the killing bit.

I actually noticed my merc's weapon only did an ave. of 29.5 damage which was the same as my wirt's leg! No wonder we're both so slow. To compensate, Diablo dropped a Spire of Honor :)

I got a sol off the countess when I was looking for an amn. I spend the rest of the morning shopping for a chromatic bone shield of deflection but the best I could find was one of blocking. Doesn't the game ever give you what you're looking for?

Good luck to all.

Wow, I can actually make an update... I've been having terrible trouble logging in, lately. Anyway, good to be back.

Zodzlut is still in NM act 5, but I'm starting to feel more confident that he will get to hell. He had a really hard time with the Shenk quest, probably because of all the ranged attackers. So I took a break for a couple days. But the other night, he stormed all the way from the Frigid Highlands to whatever the outside area is after the Glacial Trail (Arreat Plateau?), with no serious difficulty. So now it's onto the Ancients, followed by Baal, and probably Nihl for dessert. I hope to accomplish this tonight.

I also amended my damage in the table... way down. I find that I'm just not using Sacrifice anymore whatsoever. Zeal, all the way. The main reason is that 1 hit of sacrifice just doesn't do the damage of a few zeals. Especially since I used my NM socket quest to stick a really good fire damage jewel into my Viper... I noticed a big difference in my killing speed immediately. So I'm only doing about 300 damage per hit, but when you hit several times, it's pretty effective.

The big thing I'm worried about is resists... they're maxed for now, but I know that I cannot go to hell until I find a good two-socket pally shield, to make a Rhyme shield (I'm also really hard up for the CBF). But no matter how many critters I kill, pally shields just won't drop for this character. It's infuriating.

[goltar25]

Good job for everyone still going. And that's very impressive progress sunbearie, keep it up, I'm rooting for you. :thumbsup:

Hmm, no updates from Lucky_Seven, have you had any time to play lately?

Personally, I'm thinking of doing another character with these restrictions. Maybe another Iron Barb, and hopefully making it farther this time. Since I won't be under a time restriction, I'll be more comfortable slowly going through everything, and levelling up more.

Sorry for taking to long to report but i've been really busy with Family/Work/and Slowchantress. Last days i've played only my lady.

Sunbearie :clap:

From last week i've spend my time hidding from FI and teleporting my merce"bomb"narie

I've collect all the staff parts, very slow progression as always, but after Radament the staff quest was an easy quest no problem with fang skin(one of the most dangerous monsters to melee chars) cause i teleported directly to the Altar, picked the amulet and made a town portal to "home".
The palace was very easy cause the map is always the same and i have teleport, i've found the Summoner in my second try and take the Portal to "the Canyon of the Magi".
The Tal Rasha Tomb had lots of Skellys FI that made my progression a pain ..... in the end of the tomb was Duriel Lair.
I killed Duriel at Cl77 my merc died 12-13 times it was a big fight, every time he died I Tp to Resurrect him, after lots of healing Potions the demon died, and i take the Ship to Kurast.

When i arrived Ormus advised me about a zombie in black marsh called EB, EB was a great warrior and used the same strange weapon that was in my hand but with diferent simbols in the 3 rocks, and he told me that some moons ago he walked the same path i was about to take and died to Lightning demons in Great Marsh. That time fear was in my heart, but i was there with only one porpose, find the dark wanderer.

I've found a unique monsters and he droped a strange item, a bird made of gold, lots of little monsters but only the Flayer Shamans FI, that was nice.

I've found The Spider Forest Way Point and after that the Spider Caverns, I was lucky with monster roll cause only the unique spider (Sza...)and is pack where FI, after every spider was dead picked the strange eye and start looking for Great Marsh, after some walk I've found the Great Marsh after lots of flayers and zombies killed I've found the WP.
Time to get some sleep in Kurast Holiday Inn :).

Alkor gave me a Strange Potion that added some life to my Red ball.

I continue my Quest and never finded the Lightning Demons that killed EB (Coxa thank the Gods every night for this) neither a Zombie called EB, I've found the Flayer Jungle and inside the FJ i've found a strange village with a Dungeon, after killed most of the monsters there I've found a golden chest with a heart inside(Freak???) on level three, a strange thing was that the Doctor wasn't in the same room of the Golden chest. The Dungeon was nice cause the narrow passages force the monster to attack one by one.
In the village I killed a monster that dropped a Strange blade.

I've found the FJ WP.

My Quest continued and I'v found the rest's of Kurast City, in a golden chest on level two of the sewers, i collected the Khalim's Brain.
i've looked the Temples in Kurast and finally found the Ruined Temple, moment of true i tought, i was in fear of 3 big tests first Fank Skin and is muchachos, next the spider Cavern with the fire Spiders, and last selenia and is death trap in Ruined Temple.
I´ve enter the temple found monsters in entrance, but was very lucky to teleport to the side room that was empty, after that was easy using the small entrance and taking monsters one by one we killed every monster then and collect the Lam Esen's Tome.

Next step was Travincal and is High Council members and minions. No big risk there we called them one by one and kill them with no mercy two of them where FE.

I Made Khalim's Will and smashed the Compelling Orb. The Big danger in Durance of Hate was the Dolls i let my merc do all the kills, the other mosters where Urdar type, Zombies with poison cloud, and Vampires no big problem.
After 3 hours of slow progression i've found Durance of hate 2 WP. I was to tired to continued and sleep in Kurast.
Next day i begin my quest and i've found the entrance to Mephisto room, teleport to the big circle and start beating mephisto, was a big fight my merc die lots of times and only 2 purples left after the battle, after that take the red portal.

Next Quest is Izual and the land of fire....

Big problem is the slow progression and that i need lots of time, at least 3 hours session to make some progression.

Damn, you go Lucky_Seven! I can't imagine beating your progress (heck, I can't imagine beating a couple of the corpses above me, for that matter).

Well, Zodzlut blew past the Ancients last night... NOT. Damn, that was irritating. Had to re-roll them at least 20 times to get a batch that wasn't impossible. My third roll or so was actually pretty good... except one was Stone Skin and Physical Immune. I killed off the other two, then went after the third... and just couldn't damage him enough with the small elemental damage I have on my gear. So I had to re-roll and re-roll, and re-roll... and finally, got a great wimpy set: mana burn, mana burn, and extra fast. Made fairly quick work of them.

After that battle, my trusty merc and I journeyed down into the Keep, and found the level 2 WP... we would've gone after Baal, except the two mods with the Ancients that caused me lots of trouble were Cold Enchanted and holy freeze... I have simply got to get a Rhyme shield before I go any further. I did, however, hand Nihlathak his head on a plate... so now all that's left of NM is Baal and the Cow King. Perhaps tonight, and definitely by the weekend.

ALSO: I think Sunbearie oughta get some sort of prize, just for getting so far with such weak damage. Major kudos!!!

[goltar25]

Congratulations Lucky_Seven. :clap: Only two more acts to go, and Hell Cows, and you've made it all the way. Good luck with Act 4.

[water_moon]

okay, that's it, I have to withdraw my resignation. Down w/ enchantresses! I want that ZOD!!!!!

[arramor]

Well done sunbearie! Great form!
Congrats Lucky_seven! This competition and the ZOD is surely yours :)
Thanks for restoring a bit of faith in barbarians, Goltar24 :) Great show.
Nice job on the ancients, skunkbelly.

I'm not done yet, but I too probably can't compete with lucky_seven.

I can only play again next week. But i'll try and at least complete NM and see what happens after that.

[sunbearie]

Thanks for the comments guys.

Congrates, lucky_seven. :clap:
Looking at the table, I also think you might be too far in front for me to catch up in time. I wish I was a student again. grrr

Still, I'll carry on with this char even after the tourney to see how far she does. If my char finishes Guardian at a lvl before lucky_seven, I'll take it as a moral victory :thumbsup:

Nice work past NM ancients skunkbelly, hopefully I can get a roll like that too. You and Arammor can still catch up with the sorc. Don't give up yet!

Woe is me.

Zodzlut bravely bludgeoned his way down to the Throne of Destruction, which was an awful mess: dolls, Oblivian Knights, and Horadric Ancients. He bravely stepped aside and let his mercenary earn as much glory as possible, where the dolls were concerned... and lured away the Doom Knights (or whatever they're called) so he could pound away on them without being cursed. Mostly this worked.

The fearsome duo cleared most of the area surrounding the Throne, then went into the Throne room itself. Baal sat there, giggling his terrible giggles. More dolls, more mummies, more OKs. Zodzlut fiercely pounding away, despite being decrepified... carefully watching out for the dreaded Iron Maiden curse. Finally, there were no monsters left but one OK and two mummies.

Then, disaster struck.

Swing...

Zeal hits once...

IRON MAIDEN!

Zeal hits twice...

Zeal hits thrice...

Zeal hits a fourth time...

(groan)

"Your Deeds of Valor Will Be Remembered."

Oh well. I can't be too disappointed, since this was my first fanatic zealot ever, and he was seriously handicapped. But I would've liked to have seen hell difficulty, at least.

Good luck, survivors!

[sunbearie]

Oh man, RIP zodslut. Dying to IM is always painful.

The competition is running low now :(

[goltar25]

RIP Zodzlut. Very good progress, especially avoiding Iron Maiden for as long as you did.

WannabeGoddess slowly made her way through to find Anya, the beautiful Barbarian maiden, rumored to have news of previous adventurers. Her journey was difficult, especially in the cystalline passage. Monsters were Blood Lords, Frosts and Ice mages. A continual supply of thawing potions kept her warm and safe.

Strangely enough, on defeating Frozenstein, she found a set consisting a sword and a shield. Still, her leg was better, hence she left it with Mala. Maybe another adventurer would make better use of it.

Meanwhile, Anya had terrible news for WannabeGoddess.....

BashyloveU was reading the Diablo II Times-Post we he read of the downfall of his bro EB. Saddend by his brother's death, he would occasionally run out and bash a few things to feel better, that is until he became disgusted by the time it took to do in a few piddly monsters.

But when he read of Coxa outdoing the deeds of valor of his brother, EB, he knew he had to get serious to defend his family's honor. He ran for the town of Tristram that was rumored to hold the magical leg that had served his brother so well and then took out a little more anger on that uppity countess all the while working a little more toward his ultimate goal. In his desire to restore family honor in time for the annual celebration of Rev.Bob that he might present Baal's head on a cake, he was forced to abandon most of his usual ways and run past monsters, leave corners unexplored, not hork everything in sight, leave behind the rouge he was so fond of and concentrate on improving on his brother's method.

Bashy hate monsters, but BashyloveU!

I'm the one w/ the free time, he works during the day remember. So he has to make dinner or do the dishes for a week, big whup. He's willing to deal and so am I.

You get to play D2 and he has to go to work and then make you dinner? Looks like you came out of that deal better off. :D

No, my work is just more flexable, I work as much as more than him, he just has time restrictions. I put my stained glass on the back burner, let the garden grow on it's own, and make up big meals with leftovers for the days he doesn't cook. He's my partner, we pick up when the other has to let something go. Now stop trying to up you post count, I'm tryting to get some stuff done so I can spend the next few days alternating between Guild Wars and the tourney.

[arramor]

Badluck skunkbelly. You did really well.

my student deadline project is almost done, then i can continue the competition.

[Mordalles]

hmm, sorry to hear, skunkbelly, another pally falls.

"The Ninny Nitl-whatshisname has ran away and hid in a little corner of his 3-level basemeent. You must seek him and then destroy him. Oh, activate the waypoint on the way there too. It destroys this wonderful portal which we use to play hide and seek with but FBOB has spoken. It must be done"

With that, WannabeGoddess slowly(as usual) made her through the levels. Once entering the third and final level, she saw to her horror, giant snake like creatures which shot out poison clouds on attack. Stories of brave paldins dying to such poison immediately prompted her to reach for the reset button at her belt.

Instanenously, she was transported back in time and space to the waypt on the 2nd floor. Again she proceeded on to the next level and bloody hell, the snakes were there again. 2 more tries on the reset button showed those snakes were there to stay.

"FBOB help me" she thought, and casted a decoy. True to their stupid nature, the snakes fell for it. Having unlimited gold (seducing an Angel has its perks), constantly bribing her mercenary to stay with her was no real problem for Wannabe.

As expected, Nit was found in a corner of his room, surrounded by his many minions. It was told he also liked to play hide and seek. WannabeGoddess lured his playmates out first (always isolate the target male) and crushed them beneath her heels. Then, swallowing numerous potions of thawing for patient, she ran into the room.
Sure enough, Nit basically kept teleporting around the room screaming "Nah Nah, you can't catch me". What he did expect was that once WannabeGoddess has her claws (figurative) on you, she never lets go. Nit basically bled to death, his last sight of a smug little amazon staring at him in satisfaction.

Returning to the camp, Anya was developing a reputation as the bringer of bad news.....

The plan was simple. I would use my decoy on Tawlic, then stand beside my merc and chip away from korlic making sure my merc doesn't get attacked. Meanwhile, I'll also take potshots from the remaining ancient.

The plan was good, I kept rerolling and finally got 2 magic resistance and a mana burn mod. Korlic fell first, then the thrower. After I reduced the remaining ancient to abt 1/10 of his life, there was a problem. My merc died.

After that was a long tedius contest of slowly chipping away at him. With no life replenish and little leech, it was a contest to see whether he dies first or I run out of potions. I had 20 healing and 9 full rejuvs. It was worrisome, to conserve my life, I ran in and whacked him until he was bleeding from open wounds, then ran away for 8 secs.

Finally he fell, and WannabeGoddess is on her way to meet Baal :clap:

[goltar25]

Congratulations on the Ancients sunbearie. Personally, I'm rooting for water_moon (duh), but if she's unable to catch up in time, I hope you get it. Getting a tankazon this far with Wirt's Leg and no Valk is very impressive. Good luck getting to Baal. Once you reach him, he should be easy after the Ancients.

[goltar25]

Um, apparently everything from the past few days vanished. Sunbearie, good luck with Baal. :D Arramor, have fun with the Ancients. :D Everyone else, good luck with whatever's next.

Ooo, I just made a major jump! Everybody needs to come back in and update, the squid just ate the last three days. :grumble:

And FB needs to repost the final end time... 8 am local IIRC.

edit: I forgot to mention in my disblief at the forum madness... Even if I don't win, I did get something I didn't have one of yet, Goldskin (new armor for Bashy!)

[farting bob]

Can everyone make sure there table entry is up to date, what with the forums been eaten recently.
The final end time is 8am on tuesday 26th april, since that was the time i was born.
Good luck everyone on the last 3 and a bit days left. Corax has gotten to hell (told me last night) and WM is charging through the leaderboard to try and do the whole tournament in about 3 weeks.

Good going corax, keep it up. As a curiosity, how are you handling poison immunes? I've considered doing a Venom Assassin at some point in the (possibly near) future.

I'm updating for water_moon, since she's psychotically playing at the moment, and doesn't want to surprise anyone with no updates and then a huge update all at once.

She's killed NM Baal and the Cow King and gotten a +29 resist all amulet. The Den of Evil went EXTREMELY slowly, so she's leveling up in NM some more for now.

Updated my entry since it apparently got eaten. I don't have work tomorrow so its gonna be a marathon right now. So many other things in the way too like Wrestlemania 21, arghhh.

Ive defeated the Countess who dropped me an eld. I'll run her a few times, maybe something nice would drop.

Good luck all.

Nice work on getting to Hell at such a level Water_Moon :thumbsup:
I got the malus, killed the Smith and got to lvl 66 which means my merc can equip Tals mask! :clap:

Expect further updates as I'll finish each quest.

Andariel has fallen leaving me an angelic ring and this pair of boots.

Bramble Tread
War Boots
+71% Enhanced Defense
Lightning Resist +31%
7% Better Chance of Getting Magic Items
10% Faster Run/Walk
10% Chance to cast Level 3 Nova when struck <-----------bugger

I only have 2 full rejuvs left. Nuff said.

Good Luck to all.

[corax]

Good going corax, keep it up. As a curiosity, how are you handling poison immunes? I've considered doing a Venom Assassin at some point in the (possibly near) future.

A fully charged tiger strike using a dual sol'ed, pskull leg is pulling off 300-400 physical damage which is enough to kill poison immunes.


goodluck W_M. tomorow i shall be guardian. just y'all watch

[farting bob]

Well, some very intersting devlopments. WM looks suddenly in a very in a strong position, being very low lvl, corax doing surprisingly well considering its not a druid, and sunbearie already an act ahead of the 2.
But can they beat lucky7? will we see any guardians? Will farting bob be made president? find out all this and more on tomorrow's episode of 'Who stole farting bob's dignity?'

Okay, DURIEL IS DEAD!!!!! (I'm in Act 3 town, and I'll be taking care of Act 3 tonight, I don't have time to level up, and you know you're too low when the maggot layer gives you a level... ) Interestingly to note, an oblivion knight was cursed and managed to put amp damage and Iron maiden on my merc at the same time last night. I have a screenie somewhere...

BashyloveU, in his procrastination for the Z prize, has been forced to learn to run-- no longer does he meet every monster swinging his wooden leg of Wirtiness. He must run and jump; fighting only when needed to get around, past or becasue he was asked to kill them specifically. Aside from experiencing some Deja vu, which the town's people normally don't seem to notice, Bashy found himself coming to face the point at which his beloved bro, EB (who's childhood nick was the Enigerzer bunny :sniff: ), fell to outragous evil gloams. Taking a lesson from his brother, Bashy has much higher resists, due to his luck finding a +29 all Amy and Goldskin, his resists are nice and high:
66 fire
75 cold (88 actually but max of 75)
63 lightening
58 poision
his mantra has become *see the zod, feel the zod, become the zod, I AM the zod*

Bashy shall triumph! For the honor of his clan! For his brother, may his deeds of valor be remembered! For the Z prize!

edit: dear god, I need sleep, I also need spelling lessons...

Well done Water_Moon! Hows it doing though? I only hit monsters 1/3 of the time and those skellies are annoying me like crazy.

First quest of act II down.

I'm out of this tourney :( I can't get through the Maggots Lair. The combo of PIs and spawner creatures (they are PI if stoneskinned) and the lack of running room means I'm basically stuck. No danger what so ever but I kill one monster, another takes its place. I did the lair almost 15 times (levelled up once) but I never even got to lvl 3. Its a stalemate.

I'll shop around and see if I can get something with teleport/amp damage but this is likely to be the last report WannabeGoddess will make.

Go make Guardian guys!

Well done Water_Moon! Hows it doing though? I only hit monsters 1/3 of the time and those skellies are annoying me like crazy.

First quest of act II down.
I have a 45% chance to hit the venom lords. I've been putting points into dex, to help my blocking more than anything... but it's helped, also chance to hit doesn't inclued the -52% to defence that battle cry does to the little puny monstars, even bosses. hehe.

Meph died, and I only had to run back to town 3 or 4 times to restock and revive (stupid act 2 merc.... though holy freeze is kinda handy to hel prun away from the ones I don't have time to kill)

I've finally caugth up to lucky 7!!!!!! Unless he posted an update that the squid ate..... LUCKYyyy!!!! where are yooooou?

Oooo, and I found a Vampire Gaze! Unforutuneatly, w/ the organish colored goldskin, it makes me look like a pumpkin. So since I like my damage boosting, +3 to natural resist, rare slayer guard; I stuck it on the dork w/ the lance. No one makes BashyloveU look like a pumkin. Though that does give me an idea for a contest/ tourney next October...

[LeorictheDark]

WOW!!! What a comeback. GG water_moon. :clap:
