Double Troube part two - manly men of madness
Here we are again. Double trouble: Part two.
As in the first one we a goal.
To make two chars, that will together be able to run every area in the game, without loosing much on fire power, and most important, to have fun. Btw. While heavily twinked, we played on players 8 all the way, we just put Baal on players 3. Also, so we wouldn’t abandon them when we get to the Hellforge, we decided to get them to lvl 90 first, thus experiencing advantages and disadvantages of the two.
After our 'beauty and the beast' theme, we took another trip down hollywood lane. This time we choose two manly men. This would mean no teleport, but maybe some increase in firepower we thought. Well, scrap the 'maybe' and 'some'. We went like a hot knife through butter most of the game. But without further ado, meet [highlight] patriarch Clint, griswold avenger, and partiarch Bruce, scrap-gear tesladin.[/highlight]. Yes, we choose manly names for our manly characters.
Basic tactics involved not checking mods of monsters and run into packs of them without showing any sign of thinking at all. Very succesfull i must say. We had our mercs shadow us in style. Two manly barbarians, Khan and Damien. More on them later.
