Enter the city of the damned. Enter abyss knights, enter slower, much slower progress. It took forever and a day to clean out this area, and nothing good dropped, well, apart from a second Cathan's Seal. And an Io rune :grin:
Next came the River of flame, and with more abyss knights, still slow pickings. One boss at the beginning was lightning immune, took a bit of work... Hephaisto came up quick enough, and died easy enough. My shadow warrior at lvl 9 works ok for now, but I'll need to pump her a bit as soon as possible :P He dropped his hammer and a unique gladius, not bad. The Hell Forge dropped a Pul rune. One of the best runes I have (I know, I am pathetic. Sue me) Given that, I decided to stop once I tagged the River of Flame waypoint. I was worried about the sanctuary.
Well, I eventually reached it, and, true to my word, saved my new runes. Next area! At the start, another unique flail, which makes my 3rd total(1 ethereal) still totally useless of course, but funny enough to mention... After all, I have only 1 Isenharts Case :P
The entire Chaos Sanctuary was easy... omg, so easy! A breeze really. Only one annoying fight, a LI oblivion knight hero who was Magic Resistant, LE. So once more, the moron did REALLY piddly damage. Ah well. I decided to enter the fray. I could easily tank his CB bolts, and my perfect emmy in the sabre made sure he was frequently poisoned. My shadow warrior and me managed to finish him off.
I cleaned out all the seals and bosses without a hitch, best drop from those three? a tir rune. :-P But Diablo made up for that. A very safe and boring fight (just run around, spam traps, and keep on drinking blue pots). He dropped 2 greens and 2 uniques! Sweet... The gold ones were a battle axe and a mace, the green ones a skull cap and a circlet... Naj's Puzzler. Well, It was tempting to keep the crown on for the added life and mana, but the added fire damage might make a diefference should I need to do a bit of battle myself... so I now wear the puzzler. :P

Halfway Act V now... And I need a way to deal with lightning immune! Seriously...
The best I have now is a tad of damage from my cold merc and my own physical damage. No better weapon drops yet, but I keep hoping for one, including bows... Gamble for them as well.

Sigh. If this doesn't change, She isn't going to have a chance in hell to survive. And you can take that figuratively and literally btw :grin:.
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Venus has also slain Diablo. He didn’t drop anything good (read: green) for us, though. However a Burning Soul in the Plains of Despair did: Hwanin’s Refuge! Mizan is now a lean, mean, green machine! He even casts Static Field at a higher level than Venus does! :rolleyes:

Oh, and her Hellforge drop was an Io as well. Not bad, but just sold for gold by Venus.

Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

[highlight]Conqueror Mihanti[/highlight]

Feels good... My third HC char to gain this titl, and my 2nd to actually enter hell (the third died rerunning Baal(coincidentally, also a trapsin))

2 things to say about the quest.
1) Very easy mobs all the way (apart from those lightning immunes in the cave)
2) VERY bad luck in drops.
3) All areas run at p8

Basically, NO more greens dropped since my last post. As a matter of fact, I hog up all gems, runes and uniques/set items. So that usally means I have to tag a waypoint and then quit/Atma/restart...
But I was able to go from the Ancients Way all the way to killing baal in one run. Drops? Well, ONE gold item dropped... Another flail :P I now have 4 unique flails!
The Ancients I tackled on their first roll on p8. One was cursed, one was mana burn, and I thought the last one was Magic Resistant. But he wasnt, he was Fire enchanted. And he died while I was cursed too... but I stood outisde of the blast radius (phew).
Baal was a boring slugfest that lasted all but 10 minutes. Cost me about two complete backpacks of potions, it took a while to sliver him down. Next, the cows. Also at p8. Still crap. Took me about 40 minutes to clean out all the cows, and then another quarter of an hour to kill the cow king (Its a pain to fight LI). One chest dropped another green belt, so I now have two hwanins blessings, and the cow king? dropped my second isenharts case :P

Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Arimos has slain Duriel, and is now resting in the port of Kurast.

I had good luck in the small stretch from the palace through the tombs - 4 set item drops, which seems like a ton considering my 0% MF. One of them was a Cathan's Sigil, and I also found a Cleglaw's Pincers which was quite nice as I'm working with a bow at the moment.

The character is quite fun, as well. Strong Dire Wolves to create a front line, and then you either Fissure groups of stuff in the open, or plant Volcanos underneath big single targets. Shoot arrows at stuff in between casts.

Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

ACT I(NM)

Cows was quick and painless. Got the Cow King's Hide from the man himself.

Frozen orb destroyed everything apart from one, yes ONE cold immune monster. Came across many mag res monsters but the orb just pierces through. For the cold immune i just rained down a few meteors and that done the trick.

A nice little carver gave me Rite of Passage Demonhide Boots and i came across another Isenhart's Horns which i gave to my merc along with the armor to give him a nice defense boost. I took on the Cow King's Hide for some good res bonuses.

Anderial was easy enough. Wiped out my merc no problem but frozen orb just kept slowing her down. She dropped Angelic Sickle which isn't much use even though i have the ring to that set.

Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Nothing much to report yet. Did the moor and the den at p3, did the cold plains and the cave at p3 too. But down there I noticed that both the hungry dead and the skellies are lightning immune... And the archers as well, so I was forced to rely on my angelic sickle to better everything down... and trust me, it dont cut it :P Lots of work to wear her down and kill her, but finally, she did.

So I went to Blood Raven... And decided after about an hour and killing 3 of her hungry dead that I had to get back there at p1. So I did. Killed the whole lot of em by simply quaffing poions like crazy and keep on laying traps at ravens feet. She died from them, and in her backlash, the rest died as well. Then I went into the mausoleum... And I had to let one hungry dead hero live there. After noticing that, I vowed I would only go as far in the crypt as Bonesaw Breaker and his chest. As luck had it, those pretty much spawned next to the entrance. It took a long time, but I finally managed to kill the lot. And then, I left the crypt. I have a problem with Lightning Immunes. A serious one. I can deal with them if they have others around them with other immunites, I could use my death sentries to whittle them down... But in areas with only lightning immunes... *shudder*

Next stop will be the stony field.
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Great work guys :thumbup:.

Reading all your progresses makes me want to play :sad:..... but with my mid year exams coming up in under a week i have decided to hold off until they are finished (12th of June).

@Merlin.
Excellent progress , keep it up and hopefully you can crown a Guardian :nod:.

Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Hmm, I was just musing. Giving these rules, am I allowed to hire an a2 mercenary and using a 6 socket gemmed scythe? Given that my current merc uses a set item that is...

The rule is that once you have found 3 set weapons in total, character and merc must use set weapons or go weaponless.

EDIT: poison throwing potions are also allowed, iirc.

Yeh Jiansonz is correct.

If you have already found 3 set weapons which can be used in each slot (primary, switch and merc), then your merc must be equipped with a set weapon or go weaponless. Even though you may change your merc, this rule still applies.



 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Oh well, at this time the question is pretty much useless, since Mihanti has passed away.

I died in the countess tower lvl 3, when an extra fast devilkin hero surrounded me in the flames and from somewhere a dark archer hero I think fired at me. Never saw her. Both my merc and my shadow master did not come thorugh the door and I was stunlocked.

Still, stupid death. Just because I saw devilkin, I shouldn't have assumed my lightning traps would cook them... the hero was lightning immune.

Only 1 last set item I didnt have yet (it's safe in my ATMA stash: M'avina's Icy Clutch.
Good luck to all the other participants!

Final Score
Level 77 * -1 .................. = -77
Waypoints 83 * 1.............. = 83
Quests 57 * 2 .................. = 114
Set Items 15 * 3 .............. = 45
----------------------------------
Total .............................. = 165
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Other of main heroes of green with envy tournament II is death. :tombstone: :cry:
Shame for it beacuse you were on best way for guardian. Countness tower is problematic part of ACT I and dead is always stupid beacuse one second of inattention destroy all effort. But do not be sad you can try with new char as revenge for your death.
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

No sweat...

Truth be told, I didn't think I would go very far, allthough I have to say my last two level skills,spend in Tiger Strike and Dragon Talon (the lvl 1 kick skill right?) made dealing with lightning immunes slightly easier...

Since this was my second char in this tourney, I think I'll pass on restarting. But who knows? For now, I want to wear unique items and topazzess again :P
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Alsa, poor Mihanti! I've been following this thread with keen interest and have greatly enjoyed reading of the struggles of "Team Green". :highfive:

Sorely tempted to join this tourney (I like challenges), but I currently have a bonemancer and a golemancer who have first refusals on my D2 time. :alright:
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Unlucky Merlin..im sure it wont be long til im following you out the door.

Was a good char tho and the competition will be missed(assuming i get that far)
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Sorry to hear about the tough luck, Merlin. RIP Mihanti. Multiple unique ambushes are a nasty thing to run into.

I haven't been able to play since my last update, since I just moved and haven't had a chance to set up a decent Diablo-playing space. Hopefully I'll be back at it soon.
 
Re: Green with Envy II Tournament

Just a announcement if i may.

This tournament is now officially finished. Therefore no new contestants may join. However those who are still currently playing, don't take this as incentive to stop. Infact i encourage you to keep going and try and get the first Guardain for this tournament:thumbup:.

Good luck!!!
