SPOILERS -- Act One Levels Sequenced

[Flux]

Here's the full list of act one levels, that I've been trying to assemble in the proper order. You'll note that a lot less than half of them are seen in the beta.

The working theory now, thanks to Grug for the idea, is that Act One as seen in the beta is VERY different than the final game form. It seems weird that the skeleton king is battled before you reach most of the levels about him, see the ghostly cinematic of his queen's death, etc. It's also weird that the cultists are only seen related to the templar, but not before or after. Seems like stuff is out of sequence there. And note how easily you get the 3 inventory items; not much story or ceremony attached to them. They seem ripped out of the full context/story.

That's a subject for a larger analysis, though. For now, here are the full list of act one levels, from the game code. They're listed alphabetically there; I've rearranged them into roughly their order in the beta, with other stuff below the break. And some notes. Add comments or corrections as you know them and I'll rework the sequence.

Interesting. Though it has been theorized on these boards earlier that significant things and areas might have been taken out of the beta due to spoilers.

[Flux]

Sorry to just kind of dump this here, but I've got a ton of other stuff to work on. I'd like the known beta stuff to be a good walkthrough. with actions and subdungeons labeled and stuff, so anyone who can fill in details please do, and I'll update the first post with better info. And expand it with screenshots and stuff, when I have time. Make it a proper act walkthrough type thing.

[raveharu]

So the Siege Breaker actually isn't from Act 1? I guess it's too much for a starting act...

And who is Queen Araneae?

Check the wiki, I was working on it.

Bridle=Tyrael, but who is withers?

Spoiler

There appears to be a quest to re-assemble the blade of justice as well. There's three pieces to it.

[Flux]

withers is a code name, and like most of the code names, it's pony-related. I'll give a hint, there's a unique item called:

Spoiler

Wither's Cleaver

which should give it away to anyone who remembers D1....

[Risingred]

Actually it's his carver, but close enough. Especially with what it looks like. o.O

This makes me giddy, like a child on christmas.

[TheMythe]

so we encounter the Wither

Spoiler

An obese dude who likes his meat FRESH!

after we encounter Leoric in D3?

That doesn't sound right, killing the king prior to the 'cook'...

[stillman]

Crypt of the Ancients doesn't jive at all with the lore. Wouldn't that be in the sacred burial place of Mount Arreat...which gets exploded? What would their crypt be doing way over near Tristram? Then again, everyone being related to everyone else doesn't jive either...
