Anyone want to start untwinked, party-less chars?

[JEstevam]

Note to Dacar: Please don't move to player match-up, you know how it works with classic.

Just thinking it'd be a challenge to not only make an untwinked char, but also to accept no help or partying whatsoever.

Obviously:
-no chant
-no quick wps
-no skipping act 3
-no leeching whatsoever

If anyone was interested we could use a tag to identify ourselves proving we've REALLY beat the game!

I'd play on any realm, though i'm currently on east.
What's a good tag? SOLO-name?

[BoringTown]

Very very cool idea. (Although I won't personally be participating.)

What you should do, is make a clan of sorts. At least have a channel open, and have games open so while you can't leech eachother's XP, you can at least benefit from the increased difficulty and therefor increased xp.

If that doesn't make sense, I mean have a game or two going like
Solo1///1
Solo2///2
etc etc.

Maybe even have a chatbot going in a channel that'll announce the current games, sorta like the baal bots that announce runs in xpac.

playing SOLO-blinky

on USEast Ladder, let's see what my necro can do

Quite a few people this ladder already used a SOLO- tag because they didn't have a clan. Last time we tried a team like this it lasted only 1 or 2 meetings, and it was also "unusual" builds.
I play the first day of every ladder like this, and I can show for it. My sorc from day 1, after a long break of leveling her when I hit 92, I'm at 2031m right now, built perfectly and played without any of those things you didn't want.
I don't recommend soloing without other people, it's just slow. When I start from scratch I like to have at least a barb/sorc, and usually a din, though sometimes a CE nec.

How is it soloing if it's with other people? Wouldn't that be partied-play?

I'm talking about beating the game without any help from other party members...

[weep]

i don't get it.. you want to form a group that doesn't play together?

[squiggle]

I'd be interested in this maybe.

I'd need to find my cd's and my cd key though. :(

I'm starting to miss d2 :(

And the people on it

[tartanasia]

why not play sp? Then you can benefit from player settings plus atma?

one day I will make some barb or sorc and ask Warlock or Kris to make act3 nightmare with me, the standard way

Id also like to visit the palace in act2 the standard way one day

I think Id use a barb then :D or a smiter, definitely not a sorc :D
I mean, the dungeon in act3 is a pretty scary place


usually all my games can be considered solo, because only few times I were enchanted by some cool dude called Warlock (and once by Demek who played with me on east!) and I just try to skip the boring acts

however I need some challenge


what's the hardest place in the game?
some high levels told me these are some of the temples in act3 (e.g. the temple where you collect the book, because monsters tend to be immune to both magic and physical damage, so only hammerdins can defeat them)
I always considered the viper temple in act2 hell the most scary place, because the vipers can hurt everything including my hammerdin and barb

also being surrounded by the mages in the palace in act2 tends to be pretty hard, especially when they get some lower resists, but my friend showed me that his uber sorc doesnt have any problems with cleaning it

what about act3 temple (where you get the brain, or other part of the flail) in the jungle? is it harder than standard durance level 2?

try ruined temple with an orb sorc in mid 60's untwinked gear ofc.. thats fun :sad2:

also.. if you have expancion act5 gives few nice places. souls in world stone keep and viper in the halls of i-dont-remeber. those damn vipers are quite strong :point:

you could always try to tele around with half naked in a lag game.. :fortuneteller:
