Set/Unique Item Worshippers Tournament II

CryBaby has traveled to Travincial, slaughtered the Council, braved the maze-like Durance, and confronted the Prince of Hatred. Like a marshmallow on a stick, he stuck a sword through Mephisto and slowly charred him on the campfire flames of his Barbarian wrath.

....that is, he pounded him into the pavement with Double Swing. Mephisto initially laughed at the tiny damage of the Barb's quick-moving swords, but eventually he died the death of a thousand cuts.

RiverSue has defeated Diablo at P8. The merc needed a few resurrections and the Valkarie (level 6 now) came and went pretty rapidly. Diablo dropped a Bladebuckle plated belt. That was the only SU found in Act 4.:embarassed:

My selections were all in the Passive and Magic tree because the other two trees will be useless once I get three shields. Actually, they have been useless since about the middle of Act 2 when I decided to quit using a javelin.

My random selections have been 5 in jav, 10 in bow and 8 in P&M. I guess I cannot complain.

Click to expand...

That seems correct. You have the den quest and levels 3,6,9 as your picks. You have levels 2,4,5,7,8 as the random picks.

I am updating the table to include my most recent arrival in Act 5.

I have never done full clears with this much mf before and it has payed off. I have found the following items just in the sewers and the rocky waste: felloak, rixot's keen, the gnasher, and gorefoot. That would make 7 s/u for me now.
 
Ouch! Sorry to hear about Crybaby and Jenny :cry:
May both your heroic deeds be remembered.

It's nice to see everyone is getting lots of different set/unique item setups.
Destroyer Bonemuncher the druid has just defeated Baal on /p8 although I have skipped quite a few areas and I plan on clearing them much later. Next stop will probably cows, then off into nightmare.
(All the places I've skipped are in Acts 1-3 because I thought I was overlevelled already)

Bonemuncher has been absolutely peachy, no NDE's except when fighting baal and randomly shifting back into druid form because my duration is so low.
After hearing about Crybaby and Jenny, I fought Diablo in /p1 and it was a cakewalk. (Which incidently is the only monster I didn't kill on /p8)

Set/Unique (Since my last post, I've found 13 new set/uniques which brings my total up to 17.

Equips: (7)
Hat: Peasant Crown (Baal)
Torso: Angelic Mantle (Arcane Sanctuary)
Weapon: Gleamscythe (Halls of Anguish)
Weapon(Off): Tancred's Crowbill (Durance 2)
Shield(Off): Milabrega's Orb (Baal)
Belt: Arctic Binding (Flayer Jungle)
Boots: Sander's Riprap (Mephisto)

Merc Equips (Barbarian): (3)
Hat: Duskdeep (Arreat Plateau)
Torso: Isenhart's Case (Lord De Seis)
Weapon: Griswold's Edge - Battle Sword* (Dac Farren)

Other:
Crushflange (Catacombs 2)
Serpent Lord (Catacombs 3)
Isenhart's Case (Upper Kurast)
Witherstring x2 (Outer Steppes/Baal)
Cathan's Visage (City of the Damned)
Hsaru's Iron Heel (Halls of Vaught)

*I found a Sol Rune in the Frozen River and I had just enough emeralds to cube up to perfect :laugh:

*I'll post my skills later if anyone is interested, this post is getting a little long, that's all.

Summary:
Destroyer Bonemuncher, level 48, 10 s/u equiped, Normal Cow Level/Act 1 Nightmare
 
And I've finally had a chance to play, and have made it a little further in Nyx's quest to slay the evil Duriel. She's stanging in the Arcane Sanctuary, scratching her head in confusion as to all the twisting and turning packages.

The desert areas were pretty boring in terms of items found. In fact, it took all the way into Cellar 1 before I found my first item in Act 2. A messy horde of skeletons coughed up Gorefoot, getting rid of my magic find boots.

Level 24 brought another freebie I'm saving, and level 25 rolled a point into Claws of Thunder. It's really looking like I'll be using Phoenix Strike too, since so many points have fallen in this tree. In fact, none are in the Traps tree at all, which was my first intention in the tournament.

S/U found:
Rixot's Keen
Blood Crescent
Cleglaw's Claw
Gorefoot

Don's just finished carving up that Coldworm feller in his Maggoty Lair, and is resting on his laurels at Level 23. Level 20's point was magnanimously placed into Bash for Don by random.org, and he wasted no time in investing his 21st skill into Concentrate. 22 and 23 found themselves in Sword Mastery and Stun, the former of which helps with Don's new Blood Crescent, which if nothing else makes his Fire Resist a whopping 90 via the Hotspurs (even if it did replace a pretty sweet Crystal Sword). The Blood Crescent isn't the only new unique, but even Don knows how to handle the awkward situation that might have arisen from finding such a piece of junk. Don's also used his imbue, which turned out... interestingly. He's coasting along at /players 5 at the moment, so we'll see how it goes.

Not a lot of playtime lately, but I did manage to clear 3 legs of the Arcane Sanctuary. The summoner was the only tricky part, found on the 2nd leg, mainly because my hireling is an idiot, and won't walk down stairs, so I had to convince him to move via TPs.

A horrid, heavy clanking sound made a pit in my stomach, and a quick depress of the Alt-Key proved my fears. A green breastplate. Noooooo! Needless to say, it went directly onto the merc.

A bit of good news came in the form of the level 26 roll. A 2nd point in Tiger Strike. At this point, anything other than a point in Hammer is a blessing.

Nyx, Level 26, Act 2 Normal, 5 S/U equipped, (Next Area: Last leg of the Arcane Sanctuary)
 
Don's gone ahead and pressed as far as the Arcane Sanctuary, with only a Level and an extra burden to show for it. I've been playing on higher /players settings (8 or 6, depending on my mood), which has really only meant one thing: That Don's Blood Crescent is patently ineffective. The only saving grace is the 35% chance of open wounds, and even still, Don finds himself waiting for Jalami or whatever his hired meathead's name is to poke things to death with his Pike of Minimum Damage/Expectations. I did have a moment of brilliance wherein I realize that Don didn't have to wear the Arctic Furs, since his meathead could sport it, so Don switched out right before the Palace Cellar (I've had good fortune with Fire Eye before), dropping a regular Topaz and 2 Chipped's into a Breast Plate to bring his impressive MF total to... 54% (and only because of some 20% MF gloves he found in Act 1). Don then proceeded to find a pair of Hsaru's Iron Heels, which will come in mighty handy when his Hotspurs (down to 5 of 7 Eth Durability) kick (har) the bucket, which made him a happy Don, comme ca: :smiley:.

Unfortunately, soon after Don was presented with bad and worse news. The bad news was that he found, and was forced to use, Isenhart's Lightbrand, which embarrasingly enough only increased his max Conc damage by about 7 (the minimum skyrocketed, but shush). The worse news is that he lost use of his Strong Bone Shield of Deflecting, forever. Even with the defense bonus afforded by Shout and his meathead (a defensive specialist), he's hurtin'. Worser, he's got no points in Double Swing, and is reluctant to allow chance to toss (har) a bunch of points into Double Throw, even with his scroll point still intact (his Level 24 point when straight into Battle Orders, thank you veyr much).

Hopefully, the Arcane Sanctuary will treat Don a little better. Perhaps a nice unique belt. Nightsmoke would be wonderous.

Wow, I forgot to update in a while. As far as items that are useful. a chest in act3 granted me twitchthroe. I have the full set of cleglaws now too, and sigons shield. Not that great as items go... And a manald heal that is about it.

As far as skills I have finally maxed out one skill Dtail. the rest I have tons of points in shadow and martial arts strangley enough not but half a dozen half fallen in traps so far.

I am keeping the play defensive and it is going ok. kind of slow though. I can't take but hardly a couple hits... I don't think I will make it through nm at the rate.

Updated lostprophet and erimatbrad also. :thumbsup:
