I don't know if I can use WotB while frozen. If I can and it breaks the CC then I'd be really mad now If I'd have died there

Yes, you can use both WOTB and IP while frozen or in any way CCed.

Got to see Spirit Vessel for the first time. Then I got jailed with Spirit Walk on CD, just ever so slightly too far away from the stairs... it wore off just as the unique Unburied was about to swing, made it up the stairs... by that point I'd obviously regenerated some health so I don't know how low I got, but when I hovered it was at 1800 >_>

I'm pretty sure 5NV is in the game, like treasure goblins, solely to try and trick greedy HC players into dying.

Edit: Actually, now that I think about it, I bought boots last night that gave me +2200hp, +300 dps, +0.1% protection give or take a bit. So thank you to whoever put those up at a fairly reasonable price.

The Diablo gods must be trying to tell me to go study for my final. Either that or they're getting jealous that I'm farming with GSL playing on my second monitor. This time my landlord knocked on my door to check out my leaking dishwasher, when I came back and unpaused I guess I got myself a little disoriented and kited in the wrong direction. Got to see Spirit Vessel a second time. <3

Hey Mouse, before Spirit Vessel activated did you have dogs or Gargantuan alive? Do they die when Spirit activates or can they continue leeching life for you when you ressurect? I am thinking about linkdead issues, where your character needs 10 seconds to leave the server. I am wondering what happens if during that ten seconds you "die" then get disconnected during the 3 second gap between Spirit Vessel death and ressurect.

This is a good question, but I'm afraid I can't answer it. I use Gargantuan, but I'm pretty sure he was dead and on cooldown both times... when he's not dead I don't tend to get into any trouble.

Had a good one yesterday.

I'm reclearing acts 3 and 4 in hell before I venture into Inferno. Was clearing one of the Tower Cellar levels, cruising along pretty nicely in a 2p game with my buddy AFK for a bit. Ran into a champ pack of succubi which I cleared (using Earthquake//Hulk Mode) pretty easily. The last bird ran herself into a corner where I finished her off. No other baddies in sight, but as I'm picking up the rare ring (junk!) and other yellow she dropped and IDing them with my inv open, a pack of frozen/plagued/health (and maybe fast, or maybe those things are just naturally speedy, despite being the size of a freight train) Colossal Golgors ambushed me. They bashed me into the corner, and chain froze me, with WoTB/Earthquake still deep in cooldown mode. They dropped me down pretty damn quick, but I managed to get a revenge/furious charge off and kite them back to the WP, killing all except the leader and one minion.

Let WoTB/EQ finish the cooldown in town before I went back in and finished them off, but it was pretty sketchy getting ambushed/chain-frozen/plagued in the corner... those things hit hard!

Another for me.

I'm just starting to farm in A1 inferno on the barb now. Resists/damage are good for where I am, armor is pretty close to it, but life's a little lower than I'd like. Clearing cemetery tombs, ran into a jailer/arcane pack, which I thought would be the toughies. Nope, cleared them pretty easily with careful hulkmode/EQ play. It was the frozen/plagued/molten/mortars behind them. Managed to avoid getting frozen, but man, the combo of molten/plagued drops the health quick, and they're not very forgiving with the mortars when I tried to buy some space to regroup. Had to town on them to wait on cooldowns and come back to finish the job.
