Slow, steady progress. Poison Javelin does a lot of damage, but involves a lot of thumb-twiddling. One level and a little to go before Charged Strike!

No useful finds so far. Despite a whopping 45 MF (+13 on the merc), the only S/U items I've found are Hsarus' Iron Stay and ... Hsarus' Iron Stay. Stupid RNG.

Edit: Fixed the table.

Died at level 24 to Duriel, I couldn't jump back into the TP I had thrown up. That stinks. It was fun, but now I have to start a new trapper. I think I am going to do it on my own this time so I can benefit from twink gear.

Good luck to those still going!

Funny story. I spawned Diablo at players 8, with 13 Fire and 0 Lightning resists. Oops! After many trips to town for more mana potions, the Big D fell to many blizz and balls.
He probably could've killed Caellyn_II. How often does he cast Bone Prison around the toon, then red lightning stream? I'm not sure if my fireball could've killed the prison quick enough, but luckily, he was kind to me.

My desktop computer has some issues atm, someone sent me a bad link *pouts*. So I need to fiddle with that one for a bit, install some new stuff, erase some old, and during that time I'll be playing on my laptop, which doesn't have any chars or stashes yet *sigh*. So Grim is currently on hold, hopefully only for a little while... :undecided:

Naab said:

Ok the good news i managed to kill all the seal bosses this time,but the bad news is that Diablo still got me,his lightning stream took 50% of my life even when i was very close to him and once i needed to go to town so i tried running away,but he cast pink lightning strait on me so i lasted maybe 1-2 secs.RIP

I wont try a new char prolly,not atleast a pally for sure.

Here ya go Rhaenys. Just so you know, all you need to do is hit the reply button on the last post that had a table, copy that post into an editor (notepad works great), delete everything that's not between the "code" command that you'll see, type your info in, and then paste the new stuff back into the reply box, overwriting what was there before. At least, that's how I do it.

Lorahana, btw, is currently resting in the Outer Cloister at level 16.

Hey Morathi,

I'm kinda in the same boat as tartanasia... Except I just started my char not too long ago... I think I started her after the start of your tourney actually...

Anywho... Amber, HC CL/FO Sorc, is Lvl 26 and at LK WP... Is it okay if she joins? I have RWM installed, but don't have any Ladder RWs made in HC, and I will continue to stay Ladder RW-free if you let me join this tourney...

LMK and tough luck Naab (3x RIPs)

Morathi said:
yes that is ok for you to join. go a head and add your name and details in the table. AND naab lol act4 doesn't like you does it? try doing this build. it is what i am going to do when i make a HC Untwinked Pally.

20 Holy Shock
20 Resist Lightning
20 Zeal
20 Sacrifice
1 Fanaticism (optional)
10+ Holy Shield

what the hell i will add in my Hunter. This time he will be HC. wish me luck on my 2nd ever attempt at HC (first i died at diablo normal with a zon).

i am planning to go this set up.

1 poison creeper
16 ravens
1 carrion vine
20 dire wolves
20 HoW
20 grizzily
remaining all go into spirit wolves.

the ravens will make life a lot easier for me and my summons because i think level 16 ravens have 100% chance to blind monsters. This would make my summons take less hits and it would make me a lot safer and this is HC so safe is a MUST. dire wolves for basically everything apart from act bosses (thats for my grizzily) and small tough monsters (frenzytauren, thoes snow men people etc.).

Naab said:
Putting so many points to raven is definetly a waste,they can be recast and at lvl 5 youll get the max nr ravens anyway.I would definetly max HoW instead because both you and minions need the AR and damage.

Vildecor · Aug 3, 2020

Morathi said:
the points into ravens is for 100% chance to cast blind. it is not for the damage. I do no that lvl 5 gets me the maximum number of ravens however they are poor for crowd control as thier chances of casting blind in very un likey. I already said i was maxing HoW. I think you mean spirit wolves?? cuz i cant max HoW twice can i?

Naab! Another one? Sorry to hear another ones went down.

Caellyn_II defeated normal, everything (including Ancients, Lister, and all bosses) at /pl8. Baal was just sit back with namelock, spamming fireballs.
Nice finds include 3 of Sigon's Set (useful for a mage

,) a shield and armour with 3x Eth, and a Helm with 2x skulls. Mana is a HUGE issue for her, and the gold I am getting goes straight to mana potions.

@Morathi - I agree, 16 into Ravens is a bit much IMO, although, I'm not sure what else would be worth it. And the CtC blind isn't very unlikely, I don't think. They really don't need 100%.

Naab said:
Ah yes didnt notice that.(need to sleep more).But still i think putting so many points to raven is a waste and putting those points to spirit wolves is more useful too you.

Quotoing Jordanbcool https://diabloii.net/forums/threads/420025 :

Spirit wolves- 20 points. This skill is a must. Even though Lothric made a good point about defense being less of an issue I found it very difficult for my summons to hit monsters in hell even with my HOW. If you max this skill you will get a healthy AR bonus to your Grizzly and Dire wolves.

yeah you are right i may just leave ravens at level 1 now and see how much plus skills i get in the future. I will most likely max spirit wolves.
