This is actually kind of an embarrassing update. Can't believe I've already spent 40 hours on this. Feels like I've been playing non-stop.

I've finally made it to act 5. I've died more times than I care to count anymore. I've spent a lot of time just farming for gold to res my merc lol. I was extremely lucky to find a Gul rune for my hell forge drop.

I also was lucky to find a titans (155% ed 8ll) from a mob in Andy's pond room.

Does d2 stop taking screenshots at a certain #? I swear I was hitting print screen on a lot of things including these but the SS seemed to have stopped at # 51.

So anyways yeah. I've been basically brute forcing my way through hell. I've been running the pits occasionally also. A full clear takes me about 12 minutes.

Thankfully fishyzon is such a good build to make up for my awfulness lol.

Best drops so far:

Titans
Gheeds
2x Shadow Killer both etheral?
Natalya's Shadow
The redeemer
Eschuta's

tooting along at a good pace for me, A3 was all P8, Meph was easier than I figured he'd be, maybe I'll run him a couple times see if I can get some better gear. no deaths, one NDE though when the batteries in the mouse died.

Not had much spare time so as i said before dropped to P1 to sped up the rest of Act 1 then have just spent 5-10 mins on P1 in act 2 rushing to the cube so i can clear space cubing up my many gems. Will resume back on P8 and go after Radament for my extra skill point.

Played thru Hell Act 1-3. Haven't found an elite base for Treachery and I think that fade wouldn't trigger that much because I get one shotted from outside the screen. Could be useful on the merc tho. Finally respecced to FA/LF/CS (Fishyzon).

Ran NM meph in hopes of better items after I lost almost all of my gold and exp in Hell Act3. 50 runs and found duriel shell, skin of the vipermagi (28res) and kelpie snare. Hopefully with these I can survive Act4.

Death count skyrocketed due to the gloams and -60 lightning resist.

Edit: Hell HF: Hel. Luckily I found Ist in the Chaos Sanctuary later.

Have taken down Radament and claimed my skill point and a level up yet still not had any more Sets or Uniques :(

I also have learnt that when Charsi'ing a item with class specific skills like the alpha helm i used you may well get a nice item with extra stuff but it also rerolls the darn skills :( So bye bye +1 cyclone armour and hello +3 fissure :( It will do until i find something better which being i dont use fissure can even include a non druid pelt.

Reached Hell HF (Io) and leveled a bit in the AT, two magic Lacquered plates dropped, shame. But on the bright side I got Vex in my 3rd LK run after 20 minute search for a good map. Furthermore, before, when leveling in AT I got 4os Flail, I think a HoTo is possible in near future.

Wow, That's a sick ring!

Been running meph like crazy, he's not dropped much of use yet though. He did drop a Gheed's, but it is a perfectly crappy roll at 20% MF! at least it has 15% vendor reduction I guess.
