Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

Question: Do chest pops count towards qualifiers?

They usually arent, but after about 6 hours, I need all the help I can get...

I'm almost done. Pretty mediocre runes, but some truly awesome non-qualifier's.... I think I'll wait to show them off until its all over.

I've got my favorite cow-runner geared just the way I like. Pure fire sorc with spirit sword, 20FCR ammy, arachnid's belt, magefists, 10FCR ring (total 105FCR), CoH for armor, Phoenix shield (-28 enemy fire resists, Redemption aura), SoJ, Shako, rare boots. She has 87 FHR, 14k fireball, 27k Meteor. HF/Infinity merc. She decimates /p7 cows and never, ever needs a pot. Ridiculously effective - about as fast as a LF-zon and safer (in my hands). For those of you who find LF-zons less fun, try a fire sorc. If you can scrounge up a Phoenix shield, its a nice complement to the build...

~ 4 hours of playing so far, utter fail. My highest runes from cows are 2x Hel runes, Rakanishu dropped a Fal, which was laughable.

Got one Pcombat skiller +4 strength as the best non-qualifier so far, I hope my luck will be better.

My blizzsorc does just well on /p5 :)
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

Finally killed baal with my hammerdin(Yeah prolly the only non enigma hammerdin around, running cows :)). So I'll be running from today, lets see if this weekend gifts me some runes.
I'll also have to test my amazon, dunno how effective she'll be without good gear.

btw, Can I play with multiple chars within this 20hrs limit, (I ususally get bored soon playin with the same char). If I can, then I'll quickly finish the game with a couple more chars sitting in latter acts of hell.
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

No runs for me, and there won't be any. My D2 time was much, much less than I had expected, and what little I had went into readying myself for PvP week.

Congratulations to everyone on all their yet-unreported rocks!

Results sent.

Happy with my score, but only 5 qualifiers (+Lem drop from chest--not counted). All but one came from the first 6-7 hours.

190+- perfect gems which will be put to some Baal charms.

Notable S/U: Nature's Peace, Spirit Ward, Nat's Totem, Light Sabre (my 19th; no Azure yet), Saracen's Chance, eth Shaftstop, eth SkinViper (+33 resists), CK Horns (my second; still no hooves), and Arcanna Sign (only my third).

I was a Vex away from this MFO really being special...
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

I am just collecting results
This round is close to end to I am waiting for you :)
then I will post results , I suppose that around Tuesday evening
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

Results sent, total time wasted was 9 hours.

Best non-qualifiers: Gul from Rakanishu, shimmering sc and +jav/life +pc/life grand charms.
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

No results to be sent from me. 6 hours of runs with NOTHING higher than a hel. It seems that my drops are connected to a parallel universe of fail or something.

Cheers. :D
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

Results sent. Rune-wise, this was a pretty blah 20 hours of cowing. I think any other 20 hours I've spent with the cows in 1.13 would have been better.

I'm pretty pleased about the non-qualifiers, though.

Right now I'm trying to think of the best home for those two lovely jewels. Any suggestions?
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

Have been really busy compared to what I'm used to this week. Coupled with a general blah feeling about life and d2 in general and javazons in particular, I didn't get much playing time in. 6 hours, 5 qualifiers. Now I'm finally "free" of other stuff to do, but alas it's 30 minutes past midnight :)
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

@Bcoe: The first one screams Tomb Reaver or Griswold`s Redemption to me, but someone might have better suggestions.

I have no idea about the last one as I can think of at least 500 items I want to use it with, no "best" thing really stands out to me. Wonderful utility in that little charm.

As for the running: I HATE COLLECTING WIRT`S LEG!!!!

With that out of the system, I was done with my 20 hours a couple of days ago and had some decent finds. I`ll send the results to Bassano tomorrow and start sorting out the massive stash of crap jewels and other useless stuff.
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

No results from me, ran for about 12 hrs and no high runes.
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

Ditto no results. Not many runs done; busy with other stuff and although I was looking forward to this round, for me it was a bit too close to the MFO.

Best of luck all. :)
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

Final results sent. I ran about 10 hours, found 6 qualifiers. Cow runs were a nice change of pace. Ran P7 exclusively, Javazon is ridiculous, Amazon with Enigma is awful. Pretty pleased with the results, especially considering the limited time.

Thanks Bassano for keeping this rolling, looking forward to next round.
