Redemptio - The Road to Redemption [Pat Thread + Diary to Level 99]

[Kitteh]

I'll be running Baal at P3/8

[Twibz]

Is that 3 for waves and then 8 for Mr Waternoose?

[Kitteh]

Yes

I seem to remember something about only Baal/Diablo and Nhilithak giving experience at level 98, which worries me...

[Twibz]

Yeah i think Helvete is currently running nihlathak for 98-99, i may be wrong, but yeah its pretty much those targets only from 98 that give relevant xp.

But saying that im sure i heard something that possessed monsters give relevant xp more than champ/fanatics/ghostly etc. I may have my wires crossed here though :/

[Kitteh]

My Barbarian will probably respec to concentrate or berserk and run Nhilithak for 98-99, and he'll get going once I make his BotD. Will make it easier if I have two characters to play!

[pharphis]

Running baal at higher than p3, or diablo at higher than p7 is a waste. Takes long to kill, drops are barely influenced (in baal's case - no difference for Diablo) and most importantly exp gain is no larger.

You're better off going p8/3 or just p3 all the way if you want fast minion waves.

[Kitteh]

That's what I do

Entry #2

Just hit level 91, so I'm still not really started yet, but I'm getting closer to where I consider 'on the way to 99'. 98 basically^^
Trang belt dropped which made me smile, another grailer! Not much else to update, but it seemed a good level/marker to do an update. I'm considering swapping my BK for a Nagel as I have zero survivability problems, plus my spare points now go into a BA synergy.
Baal runs are faster due to practise, as is Baal himself. I'm now telebombing wave 5 without mercenary issues, which is good

[Twibz]

Good progress Kitteh , im enjoying reading this

[Kitteh]

Thanks

My nightmares/flashbacks have flared up recently, and tonight is not good. This means that I'm going to be up all night Baal running, so I'll likely have a decent update in the morning.
