Character Name: Limefrost
Character Level: 76
Character Class: Sorceress
Character Build: Frozen Orb/Telekinesis/Teleport
Game Difficulty: Hell
Act: 3
Corpse looted: No
Death type: PvM

Cause of Demise: I tried playing through Hell difficulty by myself. With only one element, and my barbarian mercenary to fend off cold immunes, it was slow going and very, very dangerous. I came to the realization that the only way I'd make it through was if I teleported my way through each act. This worked pretty well until near the end of act 2 when things started to get hairy. It didn't really make sense to me though. With positive resistances (30+), 600 life, max blocking, maxed TK and teleport, and 65% FCR, it should have been no problem, but the vipers in the hall of snakes nearly killed me several times over.

Despite some close calls, I made it to act 3 where I started teleporting through the Spider Jungle. I teleported into a pack of foul crows and they quickly had me chugging purples. I TP'd back to town to stock up again and headed back out. A couple screens later and some giant mosquitoes killed me. Latency was definately a factor; it was one of those games in which you hold down teleport and every couple of casts your character performs the animation, but doesn't move anywhere. Purples weren't responding either.

And this is how the second incarnation of Limefrost, my Orb sorcy, died.

Only item of note that was lost was an Oculus I'd somehow managed to find. Most of the rest of my gear was quasi-ghetto: 'Stealth' Light Plate, Magefists, Nat's Boots, Nagel and Manald, 20 Res Ammy, Tal's Mask, P Diamond Whitstan's, Tal's Belt. Only charm I'll miss was a 7% smfc.

Anyway, I'm gonna take a small break from D2 as I always do when a character of mine dies. I'll keep my mules refreshed for when I get back though. I still have a level 42 hammerdin I can pass the torch to...

Game Difficulty: NM
Act: 4
Corpse looted: No
Death type: PvM

Cause of Demise: I was feeling invincible really, with maxxed concentrate, BO, and about 15 shout, I was hardly getting hit. Crushing blow on my guillame's face was helping me kill monsters decently quick too. For whatever reason, i got ballsy and brave and tried to solo chaos sanctuary myself. I KNEW about Iron Maiden from the oblivion knights, but chose to go in anyways. Well, as I'm fighting a Venom Lord, sure enough, I get IM'd. One hit later, and my bulb drops from about 1300 life to less than 200. I was only using a Bloodletter, i didn't think i'd manage to hurt myself THAT BAD. So, i get scared, try to run back and pop a pot, but Venom Lord tags me and I die. Lost duriels shell, Guillame's face, whitsan's guard, IK Helm. =/. I will probally reroll another Conc barb once i get some more items, as I really enjoyed the survivability of the char

Character name: Irinae
Character level: 70
Character class: Sorceress
Character build: Blizzard
Game difficulty: Nightmare
Act: 5
Corpse looted: No
Death type: PvM

Cause of Demise: Ok, so I had just gotten into Hell difficulty the night before, and run into some very sticky situations. Since I was single elemental with a barb to kill immunes, things were very tough. So I decided to maybe level a bit more and find items by doing Diablo and Baal runs in nightmare.

The couple of times I had killed these two before I had very little trouble, so I got careless and was teleporting around like mad. I killed Diablo, and moved on to the worldstone keep. I remember thinking, "Maybe I should walk...it would be safer."

Ignoring my better judgement, my short stay in the keep went like this...

Teleport. Hrm...Soul killlers. I hate those. Teleport. Teleport. What aura is tha...Splat, deeds.

Turns out I had teleported into the middle of what I counted as 59 might-auraed, extra fast soul killers. I didn't even have a chance. I hate dying with 4 full rejuves in my belt...Arg.

Was wearing a breast plate with 2 P-Sapphires and a P-Ruby; generic rare rings with some resists; a very nice orb with +2 sorc skills, lightning resist and mana; Tearhaunch; Viscerataunt; and Tal Rasha's Adjudication. My merc was wielding The Vile Husk.

I put a screenshot of her still-warm body up for anyone interested to see. Man that's crazy!

Character Name: Balcora
Character Level: 51
Character Class: Paladin
Character Build: Blessed Hammer
Game Difficulty: Nightmare
Act: 3
Corpse looted: No
Death type: PvM

Cause of Demise: Was rushing through NM as fast as I could so that I could start doing NM Baal runs for experience. Everything was going splendidly until I reached Durance 2. In fact, I was doing so much better at this stage in the game than I was with my sorceress that I was really quite excited about getting further in the game with my character. But then I ran into this one room and was immediately assailed by hoardes of undead stygian dolls. Pop, pop, pop they went to my hammers and mercenary and I knew I was dead at least two whole seconds before I saw the deeds screen.

Bad luck I guess.

Anyway, that was my last character, so I'm not sure what's going to happen now.

well, i retired this nec a while when i finished the game with him. he was to be my "perfect necro" ie no str/energy points (because long term, i was planning to cube up to jah/ber). well, i had a very, very bad string of luck lately, the high point being a dead lvl 8 nec with my twinking gear that died due to aim -.-

yesterday, i decided, to hell with it. im not building any more chars. so off i went to pit and pit and pit with no luck. but i was fine with that.

today, angel msg me with this: "you ned shako? i got extra" (LOL, need was mispelled too! i lub u dejan). well, long story short, he donated (or as i call it, loaned) me a million things, highlights being a shako and a pnb skiller. so happy was i that i wanted to help him do a4-a5 hell. not like i cant do it (remember, this is a retired guardian)

a4 was fine. i dropped once, but no biggie. diablo died with a quickness, and it was off to a5. angel teled to ancs. we pressed the altar. out spawned 2 ci/amp,etc. reroll. out spawned 2ci/amp. we were doing fine, except for one thing. my comp decided to drop me, and i came back a ghost.

hmm, not im not really sure what to do. i know i can do it again (even with the extra requirement of no str). but now, i just dont have the confidence in myself, to defend that which was given, against the hoardes of monsters that diablo has summoned.

Cause of demise: She was getting to be pretty hot stuff, her strafe frame rate near max. Lots o' + damage charms, doing ~1.9K strafe damage. She had done all quests solo, in mostly multiplayer games- this was her self-imposed challenge. Was playing alone, seemed to be lagging outside Andy's front door ($#@*&ing botters...thanks for loading up the server....ahem. I digress.) So I decide to quit and re-enter game. Re-enter, start running from Cat2 wp. Get immediately de-synched, and am back at the wp. So, for some reason, she runs around a different way, into an open door and- DEEDS. Killed by some tainted. Didn't even get to see it happen. Dang. She was really coming along nicely, too. My first PvM death in NM in a long time. Doh. Lost kuko, buriza, EoE, SoE, nice rare gloves, some really nice dueling charms. Good job, Stupid.

Cause of demise: I was rolling along with this character, my highest ever. She was #158 on the asn ladder when she died. Anyways i was MFing Hell Pindle/Shenk/Eld and was kickin their butts pretty much with my very strong lightning sentries. As i was going down the bridge to shenk, a pack of Extra Strong extra fast Slingers avoided all my traps, and speared me to death =(. Caught me totally by surprise. I lost a lot with this char too... Nats Helm, boots, armor, Bartucs, 35% chance, 24% nagel, nature's peace ring, 2 jade talons, Lightning GC, rare +2 asn ammulet with resists. This one hurt =/. Gonna have to take a break for a bit...

Game difficulty: HELL

Corpse looted: No
Death type: PvM
Realm: USEast
Ladder: Season 2
Character Age: 1 week

Cause of demise: I was mfing on Mephisto and earlier that day I had just found Tal's Armor. I was so happy and then that all came to an end 2 hours ago. I was teleporting through Durance of Hate 3 and I teleported into a group of monsters that amped me instantly and beat me to death in under 1 second. I had over 1400 life and good block.

Equipment lost: Tal's Armour (Ptopaz), Shako (Um), 34 HOTO, Mosers (2 PDiamond), 2x Raven Frost, 23% Mara's, 43 War Travs, 39 Chance Guard, Arachnid Mesh.

Psychological Impact: Very bad. When I died time just paused. It was my best equipment I had so far and nothing on my mules even comes close. For 5 minutes I almost cried out of frustration. I just figure I will have to continue and not let this do me too much damage.

Lessons Learned: Never, and I do mean NEVER, believe you can survive everything. Unfortunately for me I hit ESC as soon as I died which didn't let me see what killed me. I was going to ESC + Save and exit but I didn't get that far. 1400+ life for a sorc is pretty good and I had maxed resistances in hell.

Well, was doing some nightmare baal runs and ran into some mages. I thought to myself "meh, if i just go after a few of em they wont' Iron maiden me in time to do anything." Well, I clicked fury on a mage, he im'ed me, i couldn't get out of the fury in time and it took me down to 1 hp, then i got hit promptly after and my char was ended. Really sucks cause it was my first hardcore character and i didn't mule anything so i gotta start all from scratch again. Think i might try an elemental druid now *shrugs*
