HC Viking Tourney

Hello, me again.

With the success of my Blackguard Tourney and the relative uniqueness of it, I have decided to make a Viking Tourney. What's a Viking you may ask? A Viking is a Barbarian that only puts points into the Combat Skills tree and only that tree. This means that the only Synergy Bonuses you can get are only from the 10 skills inside the Combat Skills tree. No BO, Shout, Battle Cry... nothing.

RULES:
- Hardcore Only
- Barbarians Only
- You can mule off your Viking, not onto him.
- All Players X settings allowed.
- You can play Single Player or Multiplayer. If you play multiplayer, it can only be with other Ravagers.
- All weapons are allowed.
- All armor is allowed.
- You may use skills outside of the Combat Skills tree should they come from items like a Barb Helm or a Runeword.
- Because of your tendency to smash and maim things all by yourself, no Mercs are allowed. (They get nervous around people like you.)
- The only exceptions to the rule of Combat Skills only is Find Potion and Find Item. (Og Smash, Og Plunder shiny.)
- Not a rule, but for the love of God, give Stun a chance people.
- If you're not really in the mood to play a psychopath, do it for the women in town. (Chicks dig scars.)
- Last Viking Standing wins.

To make things interesting, I'm also going to be entering this Tourney. I encourage you to play in Multiplayer games.

Now what are you standing around here for!?!?!? Go kick some demon rear!!!!!
 
Ahh, all brawn and even more nobrains than brawn. My kind of tournament. Gentlemen, on one side we have 7 million skeletons, 53 million demons, and a few hundred really creepy cows. On the other side ...

Ditka.

What will the final score be?
 
What the hey, might as well give this a shot. Will start later tonight...

Should I save all sets/uniques found for distribution to the winner afterwards?
 
Sounds fun

Let Fluffy join the fun!

Fluffy-Level 1 Barbarian/Viking/Big Hurty Dude-Act 1

Man, I wish I had that bunny hat that Ugg had in the halloween adventure for fluffy :drool:

Question one: can we repeat areas?
Question two: should we post multiplayer games here or in the multiplayer sticky?

What do you mean by Edit your skills? You have to start from scratch.

Yeah, I ment edit (like in: EDIT: blahdiblah) my skills into that post, but I might aswell post another time to tell more about Buliwyf :)

Buliwyf has just been born in the rogues camp and is lvl 7 now by clearing the Den. I know some of you dislike stories so I'll keep it short. I think the best way to go round in this build is a Concentrate barb with stun and berserk (and wirlwind to wuss out of dangerous places).
So, I picked a Leap attack Frenzy build :lol:
nothing strange so far, best findings: 3 chipped gems.

Buliwyf - Pillager
lvl - 7
Area - Cold plains
Weapon - Dual Swords
Quest done - Den of evil

:drink: Sint :drink:

1: Its the monsters own fault for returning to an area you pillaged. Show them the doorway to hell for their stupidity.

2: Probably would be best to do it in the Games thread. But I'm not stopping you posting games in here.

As for the person asking if he should save stuff. No need. The winner gets Meshif's boat. Just remember to make a Screenshot.

Thanks for clearing up the other stuff, but i didnt understand this one, I know the joke about meshif saying "my boat is your boat" but what should we take a screeny of :cheesy:
 
Sounds like fun - I'm up for this. The name of my viking shall be Nero. I'll start him off tomorrow - no idea what his build will be yet, I know nothing about barbs so I guess I'll make it up as I go along...

Just one question: are you allowed to mule off stuff he finds and mule that same stuff back on later, or is that against the rules?
 
I'm in. The blackguard tourney was fun even though I died real quick.

I'll start tonight with SaucyJack the non singing, non masteries Viking.
 
I don't think anyone is at this point, but one quick addition:

Grim Ward is now a usable skill. (Tell them who just whooped Fred the Fetish's *ss.)

Bjorn: You may only mule OFF your Viking, not onto him. Just go pillage some stuff.
 
i will start later after i eat dinner...my barbs name will be Mael.

just wanna clarify...no weapon masteries, right?

You cant put any skill points in the skill but if its granted by an item you can use it

Fluffy been quite fun, I really like whacking the crap out of everything with double swing :D Amazingly D2 has been excessively nice to me, a flawless ruby sits in my inventory (Started from a chipped gem + 3 Gem shrines) and 2 rals, 2 eths, a tir, an el, a tal, and an eld all sit in my stash waiting for me to get to act two so i can make some runewords. I am planing on having something like this.

Nadir
"Nef, Eth"
Barb Helm

Stealth
"Tal, Eth"
Breast Plate or Chain Mail
(I know its a caster armor but I do like some of the mods on it "Faster R/W" and "+ Mana after kill" to name a few)

Steel
"Tir, El"
Flail
x2

:D Good luck to everyone else playing!

May all your drops be white and blue! lol j/k may they all be green and gold!

Just thinking about I havent seen one green or gold this entire time... :scratch:
 
Ah, I am joining in on this tourny, being the winner of the BlackGuard tourny. :uhhuh: Crusader shall join.

Bah.

Mael is dead at lvl 18 in the pit on his way to the outer cloister, killed by around 10-15 demon archer b!tches and not hitting the potion key quick enough.
