2019 Spring RFL Sign-up and Running Thread: 2nd Round

[CaseyJones]

*cries* Sounds like much fun. Having trouble getting the time to get a char built let alone run for runes

I'll just keep chipping away...

Some good showings out there...going to be some interesting results! Keep it up!

 

[Babyhell]

27s with barb... for now I hardly get to 35 with my sorc, for various reasons - no static use, poor/inefficient telekinesis use, mana handling issues. @ffs If you got my luck on horking your score will be on sky level !

I'll check if I have a wisp, for sure I have hellmouth, I may have a wisp ring somewhere unid/unused. I'll replace a skiller by one all res gc also to cap resists, if I get Blizzard at around 7.5k it shall be enough based upon your reviews. Tonight - but more constantly for this set - i'll share time between sorc set and IpBsnPrevales leveling/questing at some point.

Cham on you all !

 

[Gripphon1]

Since sorc seems to be unable to find qualifiers, I'll also give barb a go.

7 minutes of map rolling:

Almost solid.


EDIT

New one few minutes after this one

Questions?

 

[Bobbo]

Can you hear that? The sound of everyones’ heads boiling over for @Gripphons 10 minute map rolls.

 

[Gripphon1]

@ffs taught me everything about rolling maps from his video. Thank you!

Just a hint - when rolling maps, go to Normal difficulty and then to Hell, don't go to Nightmare. When going to Nightmare, then rolling good maps will be a nightmare. Going to Normal rolling maps will be normal.

 

[ffs]

Cham on you all !

Cham on you yourself – rude.

@ffs taught me everything about rolling maps from his video. Thank you!

Maybe we indeed need a map rolling tutorial – nobody should spend more than 10 minutes rolling perfect maps.

OT: At not even 4 hours in, Barb has surpassed Sorc non-qualifier finds by far already. Several nice rings, and only my second of these just now:

What's up with everyone but me finding eth reapers?

 

[art_vandelay]

@Shuffleblast I didn't really want it at the time, maybe that factored into it? Just pretend you don't care!

Pfft... noob! Rolling a good map doesn't take more than a second at most.

Spoiler

It's rerolling the bad maps that takes so long.

 

[Babyhell]

Cham on you yourself – rude.

Thx, hope so will check in the following hour/s !

Edit: two hours done, with wisp/hellmouth and capped res, things are going better. Only one additional qualifier, but a good one, thank you @ffs, you have His attention, Zod bless you

 

[jjscud]

Sorry, no head exploding here. I took my third map rolled. Though I'm running with a necro that might have a couple too many points in CE so I don't quite need a perfect formation.

Anyways, just finished my set. I'm ok with the results but it got a bit ugly in the end, I hit my longest dry streak for the last 4-5 hours. Still, I think the council will miss me, they gave me a going away gift on my last run.

Rainbow Facet
Jewel
Required Level: 49
Fingerprint: 0xe7e4517
Item Level: 85
Version: Expansion 1.10+
Unidentified
100% Chance to cast level 41 Nova when you Level-Up
Adds 1 - 74 Lightning Damage
-5% to Enemy Lightning Resistance
+5% to Lightning Skill Damage

The only perfect one I got.

I'm seriously considering a second set, the only problem is I don't want to use the same char and my other two options are both in their 20's so we'll see what happens.

 

[sir_cyclops]

You all have me drooling at all the great facets! I’m over 8 hours in with 350mf on my ~29s assassin runs and I’ve not found a single one!

 

[EatSleepDiablo]

Looking to squeeze in some more damage on the barb. Never crafted belts before. This was in my first group of 12 or so:

Demon Lash
Mithril Coil
Defense: 59
Durability: 10 of 16
Required Level: 85
Required Strength: 106
Fingerprint: 0xd28d0818
Item Level: 97
Version: Expansion 1.10+
+10% Faster Hit Recovery
3% Life stolen per hit
10% Chance of Open Wounds
+30 to Strength
+19 to Life
Lightning Resist +18%
Poison Resist +30%

Pretty good, no?

Only one additional qualifier, but a good one, thank you @ffs, you have His attention, Zod bless you

Well, I theorize it's bad RNG luck to tease with qualifier information (trolling, even frowned upon!) – you are of course fully entitled to complain (which is good for RNG), but at the same time not as much as me. I know, it's a fine line.

I think I basically committed to finishing set no. 2 by using my best RJoF on this Kira. Kinda questionable given I did have 70@ and decent eth ones, but I'm out of socket quests and deemed this good enough.

My last socket quest was used on his Reaper's and I finally got around to using a Shael'ed one. Also improved the landing spot/WW path – council now very reliably sticks together, which is awesome. Runs are better now, but I'll wait and see how he compares to Sorc near the end of the round with more running routine.

As far as number of qualifiers go, it was quite above average with my Sorc set, feels kind of low with him now so far. Non-qualifiers drops are going well though, second highlight after the eth Reaper:

Spoiler

Very nice roll:

I guess that to complain, you need something to complain about. But still, I was running after a crafted Zod on this round, I may add a goal now: get a full set of qualifiers Pul-Cham. Wouldn't it be a nice achievement ?

Edit: two hours for nothing of interest this afternoon. Shall definitely play nightly !

 

[T72on1]

What's with all the people already in their second set? I'm still only at 9.5 hours in my first.

lol, same... i'm at 8 hours. I guess i better get my ass in gear. My typical 1 hr per night after the kids are in bed isn't cutting it...

 

[Aldo]

Just hit the 15 hour mark. I've ascended to the lofty heights of 4 qualifiers, though my score is still absolutely abysmal.

I'm going to finish this set out of spite.

At this point I'd rather poo in my hands and clap than consider doing a second set.

 

[Babyhell]

Slightly more than an hour done. I'm not regular on runs, can be 30 like 40secs, not too focused even if i handle the map correctly now, and get much less often mana low/empty at the end of the run.

Still at round grail - 1 !

Am I the only person with a job?
