@Brak Some gear quetions: Isn't viper needed for mdr because of abyss knights? I use Eni on my real runner (not the test char ofcourse) for frw and 60 str as some dr aswell.

Why are you using Rhyme? The real defensive options are either sanctuary or storm and the best casting option would be spirit.
Judging your stile you seem to run with 63 fcr instead of 105. Isn't that a bit rough, expecially with the Urdars in the area?

 

[Brak]

I went with Ormus because it's nearly impossible for me to kill anything on p7 with this character. The Cold skill bonus and Static range help a lot in crowded situations when I want to pick up a rune. Rhyme is there for the CBF. I'd rather Rhyme than a Ravenfrost, although my rings are p crap TBH. Also she was initially going block route so there is a partial Dex investment, the Str to switch to Spirit isn't something I wanted to do. I have played her with 105FCR, but that means removing the Bloodfists, and using even crappier rings. Also can't do that with the Shako, which I prefer to my 2/20 circlet because of the life. I guess I could invest some of those 70 stat points I have lying around (Think I already put 30-50 into Vit after starting RoF runs). I actually don't have many Urdar problems currently, which did surprise me when I first dropped the 105. I think the high FCR actually helps most for TKing chests while you are being harassed. You can see me abort a chest in the video because I can time a chest properly between traffic and hit recovery.

 

[Treeharl]

I watched your video pretty impressive running there Brak. Still in my case I am a bit more lazy as I don't use telekinesis at all which saves me stamina on the long run. The way you're running take a lot of actions per second, personally I am relaxing more when running by just walking around luring monsters away then telestomp the chests.

Still I really think 105 fcr would amplify your results from what I've seen. I would go for an upped viper ummed in your case and go for max block (storm elded). Prehaps switchout your Echuta for a boring hoto for some more resist. You do miss the bosspack fingermage kills but I guess it makes your runs atleast 30% more safe.

Also another small advise, I see you teleport right above the chests when big patterns occur. Personally I would teleport right below the chests as usually most itens you might miss would be located there.

 

[Brak]

Thanks for the tips. I don't have a SS or HoTO, but might think about making one.

I think, if anything, my sorc proves just about anyone can run RoF if it turns out to be lucrative.

Also, I always teleport to the right of chests after a big pop, but I usually have to go the long way since there is safety up above. On one drop I saw a rune flash, but had to clear out some junk first. So I did that from the top since the pillars funnel enemies 1-2 at a time to the merc. Unfortunately it was just a Ral

 

[helvete1]

Run with a hammerdin. Kill any boss (it is a lvl85 area after all...), then open the chests.

That's what I do

 

[maareek]

This character is embarrassingly non-optimized right now. I hope I don't give maareek fits.

Nah, doesn't really bother me, I just note it and offer suggestions if I feel they're warranted/would be accepted.

Unfortunately it was just a Ral

This, though, I take offense at. Calling one of the few drops in the game that matters "just a Ral." I can understand "Just a Jah" or "just a Sur/Lo/Zod/etc." but "just a Ral" makes me lose faith in humanity. ;p

As far as gear goes, without HotO or Spirit I'd go: Eschuta's, Skin of the Vierpmagi (the +%skill damage from Ormus is mrerely additive with all your bonsuses from mastery, so it adds very little damage,) Lidless Wall (being frozen doesn't affect casting speed and you shouldn't really ever be running outside of town so Rhyme isn't really needed) which would give you 90% FCR, and you could either use Trang's gloves/Magefist or Arachnid Mesh or some combination of jewelry (or a crafted belt, like you have) to hit 105%. If you need to pick something up, use teleport to lead the monsters a little away, TK gold to pick it up and then port back over to pick up what you need; trying to run in and tank damage is a bad idea regardless of how you gear, really. To be fair, it's not like it'll come up that often anyway. ^_^

So with the amount of running done so far, do we have any reason to believe that all the theoretical HRs aren't actually available? I'm thinking of rolling a map for my Enigmaless Sin to hopefully hit 2x super chests quickly. (Would be an improvement over my current LK situation)

Being the first to hit that Cham pattern is appealing...

we have no empirical evidence that all the expected patterns are indeed present but you can still run with us and help us find out

be a pioneer
we want YOU.

I would just reroll your map for a little while. You'll either get a Jah/Cham during this process or nothing much. Unless you're an outlier like Carawolk, then you'll spawn a chest that only drops Jah runes.

 

[LiquidClear]

How crowded are you guys' maps in terms of monster density? I've rolled the "ideal" map three times so far and each seems to be seeding boss packs all over the chests

You can roll maps with lower general density but the area will we crowded a good 50% of the time in my experience. I don't know if you can find a seed where the place stays consistently empty.

 

[Brak]

My map very rarely ever spawns bosspacks on the chests. Density is variable. You can get an idea of my typical density from the very tiny video I posted earlier.

sorry it was a bit lower than usual though

Can't begin to describe how stingy Superchests have been as of late. But at least a skull pile finally put.

 

[Carawolk]

I know what you mean, I got nothing in 3000 runs. Not even a Pul. I might let it be for a little while :/
