Starting grail hunt

**Hybridreamer** · 13-05-2012, 04:15

So I've decided that I'm going to begin trying to complete the grail of every set and unique in the game. Does anyone have any pointers to help me out on this journey?

Hrus' MF guide is excellent, and there is the Grail thread to record progress and look for inspiration. For such an ambitious goal, efficiency is an important consideration!

Get mf, don't sacrifice MF for kill speed, many runs needed.

go find a checklist and get going:P

GoMule comes with a built in Flavie (grail checklist). You'll need it to mule all your items, so, if you already don't have GoMule, download it and drive yourself mad trying to complete the grail.

I've been working on the self-found grail for a while, but it seems to have come to a screeching stop.

Code:

Metalgrid
Halaberd's Reign
BKWB
Tyrael's Might (hard to believe I know:tongue:)
Stormlash
The Cranium Basher
Death's Web

Sorry for the hijack Hybridreamer, but a grail IS an acceptable passtime for the insane.

Not a problem, I'm in the insane club as well. I mean who starts a D2 grail quest less then a week before D3 comes out?

Don't waste too much time in areas where items like Tyreal's Might can't drop... say running Pindle or Meph. These guys drop the bulk of the items quicker, but you're wasting your time with the hunt for the grail. It takes a long time... and a lot of runs. I recommend running the Pits and/or Ancient Tunnels instead of running Baal+minions, but to each his own. It was once figured out that it would take more time to complete this task than getting a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science.

^That time requirement makes me so sad. Do you know where this was figured out?

Don't know what that means in terms of hours (Bachelor's degree in Computer Science), but it sounds silly to me, especially so with a good/great MF character.
