Green with Envy II Tournament

Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

R.I.P Envy lord, my 1st 2 chars here were also my 1st HC Chars, I am now working on a non restricted trapsin, currently at Act2 NM, to get some more xp under my belt, i think reading your experience in the claw viper will hopefully help me avoid such a death, so your death was not in vein! haha, anyways sorry to hear it GL with your next attempt
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

@jgreg7
@StevehRogers: I think that after MF pentathlon I will try some other char. The way to first guardian is hard especially in this tourney but I try it
good luck for your chars. I catch you later in scoring table :smiley:

Act III NM done. Mostly played on /p1 or /p3, only some pleasant areas on /p5. In general act III seems to me a bit boring so I always try to go through as fast as possible, well of course on HC it isn’t so much fast. My army seems to be quite strong, for example with Council we hadn’t any troubles, Filip was checking situation from safe distance. We passed comfortably through the Durance of Hate on /p3. I didn’t want to do full clear, I was a bit afraid of dolls, but in DoH II I had to, because I couldn’t find WP and in the end I noticed that I went around it and somehow missed it, so much I was concentrated on dolls.

I had tempting to kill Meph also on /p3, but gladly I changed my mind and players setting to /p1. I did few strategical errors and my army was destroyed during long killing time. In the end, after long dancing around there, it was hard work of merc + clay golem + decrepify which finished him. And drop, bleh. I’m really surprised how little of green items droped for me up to now (and I had similar troubles with this in GwE I also), for example still no helm, well but gladly just only one weapon, so merc can have some crappy grey poleaxe.

Well now my biggest fear is closer and closer, Diablo is waiting for me :rolleyes:.

Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Died on Normal Durial. Forgot about how nasty the freezing is, and underestimate him all around. Got me killed.

Level 29 = -29 points.
10 quests = 20 points
16 way points = 16 points
4 set items = 12 points

Total: 19 points.

My set items were: Arctic Furs (Gambled), Cleglaw's Shield (Tristram), Cathan's Mesh (The Palace Celler) and Cathan's Seal (The Arcane Sanctuary).

It was fun. I won't be starting a new character.
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Hey guys, sorry about my inactivity, school is just owning me now that i am back.

Firstly may i say R.I.P to the recently fallen (your deeds will be remember).

Secondly congratulations to the contestants who have made it to Hell, a great accomplishment :thumbsup:.

Thirdly, Welcome to all new contestants, i hope you enjoy being green :grin:.

And fourthly, my Bowler druid Cosi is still sitting at the Pandamodium Fort (speaking of which can someone update my latest progress to the table??). I will try my best to make further progress but school is the priority atm, so until i find some spare time, Diablo is on hold.
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

[Highlight] Filip, Necromancer, Act V NM- Harrogath, level 64, points 123 [/highlight]

Act IV
I wanted to start it on /p 5 setting to gain a bit more exp, but from the beginning I saw that’s too much, so I lowered to /p3 which was quite comfortable (I was surprised how big difference is between /p5 and /p3). I was full of wariness if there will be some souls on Plains of Despair or nope. As first I noticed some Doom Casters, so I thought it could be alright. But after exploring half of PoD I saw some sporadic lighting, fortunatelly near LR shrine.

Izual wasn’t dangerous, but rather a bit boring. He dropped green, crapy shield.

I continued to CoD and RoF. Before HF there was some unpleasant crowd with boss with ability of teleportation, but here CE proved how strong skill it is. For a change Hephasto was quite friendly, so he died quickly. Quest = Dol.

Cleaning CS was quite ok, except some annoying IM when I needed to renew my army, also Seals were destroyed happily and then Diablo came (of course /p1!!!).At the beginning of the fight I had full army including mage and 3 Revives (one revive disappered immediately, I don’t remember which revived monster it was). We had luck. This time my army proved some slight inteligence :rolleyes: and they stayed in the middle of start while Filip moved away from the middle start to be able to escape from Diablo’s potential lightning. Army with 7 points in summon resist was quite able to survive, while Diablo was slowly dying. Filip stood in safe distance as always, fire nova wasn’t any problem thanks to 75 fire resist.

Finally Diablo was dead, and the drop bleh (as usual). I’m happy.
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

sequana, those were some nice Diablo-fighting pictures. :thumbsup: I am surprised that it was actually possible to keep some sort of army alive long enough to kill D*. I guess those Venom Lords could take quite a beating (their high fire resistance must have helped!).

No matter what the necro build, I tend to take the easy way out (or rather, the way I know how to play) against act bosses - golem + Iron Maiden. I can do that in my sleep against Diablo. Unless he puts a Bone Prison on me, that is...

(* of course, I am used to skeletons dying all the time - think version 1.09...)




Small progress for Allisandrina the Phoenix Striker-to-be. Cain is rescued and she has reached level 15. No greens yet. I use Attack most of the time, but if a monster pack is big, I may throw in a triple charge of my level 3 Fists of Fire, maybe followed up by a few Wakes of Fire. Griswold got the 'Tiger Strike x3 - Dragon Talon with Chain Boots' treatment. That worked out really well.
I´ll update her scoring after the first act; I do not want to show her with a negative score. :azn:
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

@sequana: grats for diablo killing (75 fire resist I did not see in all my game :grin: ) now you are in good way for claw viper temple to beat fangskin and give him and his minions slow and brutal vengeance for my death. I will hope that Filip do it all days and all nights until he not kill him. :smiley:
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

I think I've hit a roadblock, I've completed all areas up to stony field but it's taken something like 5 hours or so just to get this far. I think I picked the wrong build. She's very capable but the amount of time it's taking to clear areas has made it difficult to want to sit down and play her and I haven't even hit areas that are really going to slow her down (phys. immunes, tombs, etc.). I haven't played her in almost two weeks now, I'm just not sure what to do.

What weapon are you using? Have you found 3 yet? If you havn't you are very lucky! You a Javazon?


 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Road Ratt is doing a Valkazon build which means the weapon the char is using is almost next to useless.
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Venus has killed Baal. Her most notable event in Act IV was finding Milabrega’s Orb on the Arreat Plateau! Finally she has some MF!

Her other green drop was Sigon’s Sabot from a Frozen Terror. Of all the boots, why those? :tongue: The FRW is OK, but I don’t need more cold resist! Venus’ cold resist is 104%, compared to 15% for the other three. And that’s after Malah’s scroll!

The rest of the act was easy sailing. Static Field made short work of The Ancients and Baal. We were even bold enough to take on both Lister and Baal at /p8, instead of dropping down to /p3 as I often do for tournament characters.

Venus’ green gear:
  • Sander’s Superstition
  • Cathan’s Visage
  • Vidala’s Snare
  • Milabrega’s Orb
  • Sigon’s Sabot
  • Cleglaw’s Pincers
  • Cleglaw’s Claw
  • Angelic Halo
  • Isenhart’s Horns [Kaelim]
  • Cleglaw’s Tooth [Kaelim]
  • Berserker’s Hauberk [Kaelim]

Hey, don't knock the boots. There's 50MF right there assuming you can find 2 more of Sigon's set. :grin:



 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

True, but I already have Vidala's Snare. So if I had found those boots, for example, I would have had the FRW, 50% MF, and 8% resist all! :rant:



 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Allisandrina the Assassin is now through the first act, finally. Getting the Shadow Warrior at level 18 was a big help. Especially when I could get her to use Wake of Fire a lot.

Quests: 6 (12p)
Waypoints: 10 (10p)
Greens: 1 (3p)
Level: 20 (-20p)
Total: 5p

The green is Hsaru´s Iron Stay, dropped by Andariel. That is an item I consider to be a good early set piece, so I am pleased.
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

That is a fine belt for a low level character.

Now I have another item to envy, particularly since Venus just found Hsarus' Iron Heel on a dead Rogue in the Cave. With two set boots to choose from but no belt, perhaps it's time for her to gamble belts for a while. She gulps a lot of potions, though, so I'm a little reluctant to give up the extra rows from her demonhide sash.
