MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt i

Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

I'm done. I think I ran around 15 hours and found 3 qualifiers.

I found the Cow King's Hide but no Horns so that was disappointing.

I did get one ethereal grailer in Rakescar.

I found one Stone of Jordan in warm-up runs, an Arcana's Sign, and one Fungal Grand Charm.

Meh.

Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

results sent.

16ish hours of running 11 Q's.

S/U's found and best non-Q's: SOJ, 20 life/7cold, 20 life/3poison scs, steelcarapace.

i purposely ran with 0 mf for the first 12 hours of the tourney hoping to find some nice ethereals like a sacred rondache or so, and some nice armor.
I found 2 good socketables...2 perfect Dusk shrouds.

i'm generally dissappointed with the cow level.

Founded Zod and several Cham runes is very nice presentation of this round

I hope you had fun during running and I hope I will see all of you in next round :)
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

Hey, Hey, I finally get some points! I thought I had a good chance with the 2 big guys. Now do I make a eBOTD or try trade a Zod for a Ber? I kind of want to make CoH over another weapon.

Congrats to ESD! GG everyone! Bring on Pindle :)
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

Interesting that there were 3 chams, 1 zod, and no bers. Congrats to the winners!
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

Congrats to the winners, finally a rune tournament with the winner finding a Zod.

My competitive side wanted to try to catch up a couple more points on Fabian but my D2 playing side is almost non-existent these days.
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

Nice, top 5 this time too :) I thought I had some chance thanks to that lucky Cham, but overall I thought the results would be better across the board.
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

I'll post the screenie when I get home tonight. (Edit: Here). It was dropped by a CK minion.

I had to run around like a crazy person once I saw it (no room in my inventory; multiple packs closing in). Took forever (read: about 10 secs) to park the CK so I could pick it up.

It dropped on Monday in hour 6 or 7. I spent the next 12 hours looking for a Vex to collect all necessary BotD runes from the MFO, but to no avail (only a Mal dropped in that time). I guess I had a debt to pay...

Thinking GPA. I have an eth with +6% damage lying around, but it lacks sockets. I'll put together a runner to rush Act 5...

Yosh....Im in the top 5 :). I found both Jah and Sur in the final 5 hours in a gap of around 10 runs. No idea of to what to do with them immediately though.
I actually was more happy of the non qualifiers which included horizon's tornado and Tal's armor(which completes tal's set for me), both of which can be of great help for my chars.
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

Nice haul everyone. I haven't really done a lot of cow running so I'm not sure if I'm going fast enough, etc.

What are good cow run times at the various P-settings?
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

Personally, I do not think I got 100 runs in 19+- hours.

full clears; 11-12 mins @ p7, which considers deaths (5-7 with my glass canon), merc resurrections (all too often; should of switched to Shaftstop), inventory mgmt (i.e. cubing gems), parking only CK and LI/PIs, and my general pace, which was leisurely.
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

Really don't know what my run time average was, as the run counter sometimes autosaves when runs go this long, but I'm guessing a bit over 5 minutes (full p7 clears). Definitely impressed by those who can do it much faster, that's for sure.
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

My runs were around 6-7 minutes on P7. That includes running for Wirts Leg, as I did that each run rather than stockpile. I'm not the best to pattern after as I prefer casual running to that of optimal performance and times.
 
Re: MF league 2010 - round 5 - Secreet cow level - rune hunt

My runs were between four and five minutes on p7. I`m sure one can do it faster, but I tried really hard and failed to do so. I blame old age for that.

I too though the results would have been much better than this and I was very worried that my Jah and Sur wouldn`t be enough to clinch a top5. Turns out Cows were a little stingy, although a Zod is a beautiful find.
