Talith is ready to go, although I may level her in the Cave a bit more to get used to the play style and key layout. Maxed Nova/Lightning Mastery, and maxed Frost Nova and maxing Blizz synergy (to avoid Frozen Orb on left and likelihood to use it instead of Frost Nova, instead going with Ice Blast), with lvl 16 Cold Mastery, likely swapping in one more cold skiller to make the backup skill a bit stronger - right now it's 4 lightning skillers to 3 cold, with a Ruby GC of Sustenance to max that resist.

Because Infinity won't be around (or if so, only one player most likely), I'm thinking to go with 2 cold facets and one lightning in the sockets (or maybe all three cold?). It's too easy to just go with Blizz for LIs, which I want to avoid, so I'm hoping a stronger cold damage will balance things out. But I'd appreciate feedback. There are only four of these in the Mat/Pat compendium, and only bcoe's was a Tal sorc and he focused on Cold

Thanks to the blizzard getting me out of having to work, Gurgalan is ready to go. Also, dual Fleshrenders are criminally awesome! Sockets in the IK gear are pTopazes in helm/armor and 2xShael in weapon. Jewelry is Maras and 2xRavenfrost. I got a Sharp and a Steel Grand Charm. Might merc is now wearing Reaper's, Fort, and Vamp Gaze. Tested out the Crypt as well, and he is, of course, still quite powerful, even on p8.

The CtC effects on Fetid Sprinkler were nice, but was certainly glad to finally get 'Faith' Merc and Gris Caddy in quick succession. It feels like I'm using zeal now after slogging through all of NM with Fetid..

I have some, but nothing spectacular. Always looking for a good trade!

maxicek · Feb 20, 2021

Actually I'm kind of missing that we aren't doing this tonight, especially since pretty much everyone is ready.
@skiffcz Where are you up to? Did you start yet?

d2lover · Feb 20, 2021

If everyone is on board I want to play today.

maxicek · Feb 20, 2021

Nah, we said next weekend so we will go for next weekend.

skiffcz · Feb 20, 2021

Im not at my computer this weekend unfortunately. Ill be ready for next weekend no problem.

maxicek · Feb 26, 2021

I almost forgot that this was tomorrow! Everyone ready to go for tomorrow?
Still one space left if anyone is interested.

I'm going to start with Pride on the Merc, but I will put Infinity in the stash for more Conviction coverage if we need it.

d2lover · Feb 26, 2021

is Pride in a 1.07 base enough to let the merc leech? with andariels or the like for ll

Vildecor · Feb 26, 2021

I'm ready to go!

1.07 Eth CA. I struggle with Pride. I’m putting Vamp and Fortitude on him, hopefully he doesn’t die too much. I think with other auras around he should be ok.

That is another reason I’m keeping infinity in the stash...

skiffcz · Feb 26, 2021

Guys, I'm going to let you down this time. I have him at a3 NM and wanted to bring him up to speed tomorrow, but I have a date whole day and even if I would finished the char somehow, my obvious hope is to be busy in the evening NOT playing videogames

Have fun! I will

PhineasB · Feb 27, 2021

I should be good for tomorrow, but I'm not sure about Sunday. Looking forward to it!

ffs · Feb 27, 2021

Good to go as well!

d2lover · Feb 27, 2021

So, in 38 minutes after this post?
