Mat Shannon -- Frozen Orber

[maxgerin]

I patterned her according to CRG's Layla-II (http://forums.diabloii.net/showthread.php?t=582680&highlight=Frozen).
Not as uber, but meh...not bad me thinks.

Gaming Experience:
Normal and Nightmare I can't remember for the life of me, just like my MeteOrber I suppose since FO is the primary killer.
I started this character ~2 years ago, shortly before taking a long break.
Left it at NM A5, so all I did in NM was level her with Pindle and kill Baal.
All her skills were mainly Cold when I got back.
Was actually considering to Max Cold Mastery FTW, but immunes were really starting to be pain-in-the-***.
Eventually decided to pump fire skills in Hell since Immunes became more rampant.

Was wondering why I didn't have full resist, knowing that when I rescue Anya usually I get max resist. Then I found out I was questing A5 with MF charms, which didn't help with the finds anyway. :tongue:
Hell Ancients didn't have to be re-rolled. Two dropped like flies with FO, the other was dealt with with FB and Merc.
I'm really starting to <3 Delirium more and more, and my merc <3 the Fort.

I think she's has the highest clvl of all my characters at the point of killing Baal. I just leveled her through /p8 Pindle runs (hence the MF charms).

Comments, suggestions, mistakes, rants, whatever, are always welcome. :flowers:

EDIT 1: I |\|00b. I |<n0w n0T Ss. (Fixed the screenshots, hopefully.)
EDIT 2: Ok, I'm starting to hate free(k)webs. Why can't they show it full screen?! (Or is there a way I know not.)

Okay, quickly fix those screenshots. They either goes to freewebs login window or they are thumbnails. I'll comment more, when I see ss's :grin:

[Swiller]

Congratulations, hero; for both the unconventional build, and for some really nice gear. Gib Death's Fathom?

[NagisaFurukawa]

Good stuff. *squints for screenies* Any plans in her future?

[bassen]

coo. Congrats :)

I like th build and all you donw with it. You shall be proud ^^ good luck with next pat/mat :)

@ Neksja and NagisaFurukawa: Thanks! I fixed the link. I'll try better with the screenshots tomorrow. I was trying to compress it since my connection tends to be intermittent.

@ Swiller: Thanks! Sorry, just one DF and 2~3 characters currently to share it (with my BlizzSorc and sometimes my CL/FO Sorc). :tongue:

@ NagisaFurukawa: To make her clvl 90, at least. She can handle WSK at /p3--/p5, with full resist I think she can handle higher. That's my default goal for my Pats/Mats. I'll make up some more if she remains to be fun after clvl90. :wink3:

@ bassen: Thanks! :smiley:

Hey, it was worth a try. :grin:

By the way, I apologize for my rudeness in the other thread last week.

Likewise. :embarassed:

Tension was running a bit high, I guess.
