Yes you can just place your stats here, don't know yet if the ladder it self is working but place your char stats and then someone will come in and tell you if it's works or not.
Well I have started to start a new sorc. This time it's a Blizzsorc with Firewall as backup skill. She is doing very well and she is fast aswell. She is now in Act4 and reached level 32.

Bachar-Yerian survived the OK's and their Iron Maidens and then dispatched big D with no fuss at all. He went ahead and killed Shenk and then took the rest of the night off. The only thing between him and Conqueror is the Ancients and the FE bug.
He also found a 2-socket grim shield with def of 143 and made himself a real nice little Rhyme. That should come in very handy in A5.

Sometimes this game is so d****d annoying. :rant:
Bachar-Yerian has made it through the first three areas of A5 NM. The first 2 areas were pretty uneventful. The third was baffling. The guest monsters were Carvers and Returned Mages. No problem, right? Wrong. I could NOT hit the carvers. I checked my stats and it said I had an 87% chance to hit but I missed so often I actually saw my mana dropping as I kept swinging.
Is this some kind of weird bug? I had no problem killing the Shaman (Shama? Shami?) but couldn't even touch most of the little buggers. Has anyone else ever seen this before?
Anyway, he's into the Crystalline Passages and things have gotten normal again. I still have no idea what was happening.

My Blizzysorc have made it to the Catacombs WP. No problems yet with this baby, the few CI I have met so far have been fried quikly with my Fire Wall.
No problems running on players8 nothing can take more than two hits of my Blizzard. Can't wait to put on my perfect Death's Fathom with 30% Cold damage. Maybe I will cube it with a Cold facet. Have some of those so I think I will have a 5/5.
Nightmare is not much of a test with this character can't see any problem stopping her. The real test will be in hell to see if my Fire Wall can do enough damage and if my merc can't take the damage dealt to him.

Well my Blizzysorc is moving further very fast now.
She is soon in act5 NM. She is doing very good in act4. Nothing can stop her really. Got two Pul runes in act4 one in Plains of Despair and one dropped from the Hellforge quest.

Sweet! Lucky SOB.
I'm hoping the countess will be good to Clarise when she gets there.
Good luck.

Well I have to get some now, Blizzysorc are not that good at running countess. To many CI down there.
Well one Pul is wasted I upgraded my merc weapon. I never thought that Kelpie Snare would be that good. Slowing monsters with 75% is really good. With that speed they get fried quite easily with my Fire Wall.
She have now made Conquorer and entered hell but still on players8. One or two Fire Wall is almost always enough to kill the CI in act1.
She was very good doing Baalruns in nightmare on players8. She gained the level really fast. She is now at level 76 and have rescued Cain. Will soon enter Black Marsh and if I'm not mistaken there are some CI there aswell.

DX and CB: Good to see you guys keeping the ladder alive. I haven't been playing my ladder character lately but with the TWD II tourney it's hard to get time. However, I will post my last stats and try to get to Hell with this guy sometime.
CB: I think you have a Windy as well; Is the race to Guardian on?

SteelsixtyIV: I did have a windy, but he perished some time ago. I think he made about lvl 52 or so.
Clarise saved Cain in and then defeated that evil countess, getting an El for her troubles. I cleared the pits and got the Outer Cloister WP. Decided to repeat the countess, got caught by a pack of archers (with boss). they are LI in hell, so Clarise had been having trouble with them already. These ones did her in.
RIP Clarise, lvl 75 Assasin (trapsin)
She ripped up the everything but the LI monsters. Venom just didn't seem to cut it, probably largely because her AR really wasn't very good. Without any AR boost from skills it's pretty hard to get good AR unless you have godly gear (or a pair of angelic rings, which sure hurts the equipment selection)
I'll have to start a new char. Maybe a Wind Druid to chase SteelsixtyIV, or maybe another go at an Avenger, I really liked the last one.

Sorry to hear about that C_B.
I also have thoughts of starting an Avenger, had one in the Beta version that I liked, he made it to act3 in hell I think. I think I will start a new one now that my sorc have made it to hell. It is a bit slow in hell sometimes so it's always good to have another character to play when you get bored of the slow moving.
Good Luck whatever your next character will be

Hi guys :wave:
Congrats to those with new titles, and condolences to our lost heros...
I haven't played an official SPF ladder character in a while now, so haven't posted here. But I have been playing three HC builds in a three-way tourney on another forum *GASP*. They are coming along pretty well, and if y'all don't mind, I'll give updates here
Destroyer Sammy the Trapper is lvl60, sits dockside at A3 NM. She can only use lvl 24 or 30 skills (tourney only allows two "tiers" per character). She found the Gull dagger early in A2 norm, and is the designated team MF quester. She has 232%MF and is finding all kindsa cool stuff.
Destroyer Kayla the Enchantress is lvl57, about to tackle the Arcane Sanctuary. I chose lvl 18 and 30 skills for her build. She's my melee char (one was required by rule), and inherits all of the fighting gear found by the others. Currently cracks heads with Earthshaker, Mosers w/2PD, Angelic Ammy/Ring & lots of dmg charms.
Destroyer David the Hunter Druid is lvl48, recently defeating Baal and clearing the moo moo farm. He is my "weakling", using only lvl 12 or 18 skills. He sends wolves boosted with HoW to do the hard work, and uses bows/xbows from afar. He employs a barb merc partly for fun, but also to provide a slot for any big hurty swords the group may find.
All three have gone at players8 to this point, with Kayla seeing the most NDEs (the obvious result of going melee). I've never played a Sorc this far before, and haven't attempted a hunter druid either. So these are very fun characters. The rules allow characters to pass items to the others, and use a common stash. I've chosen to do full clears, single pass as well - my preferred questing style.
I wonder...I know it's against the official rules, but would anyone object if I put these three onto the ladder?

Thanks for the condolences all. I'm still learning how to succeed in Hell. It seems most decent builds are viable up to the end of NM, but they have to be very versatile to be strong in hell. Or maybe I just have to be more patient (hell can sure be slow going). In any case, I'm pretty happy with any char that reaches lvl 75.
AE: Sounds fine to me. I can't imagine anyone having a problem with this.
Anyway, after considering the options, I decided to go with a Bonemancer. I haven't had a lot of success with necros before, so I figured I'd go with one for a change. I would've gone with the super-safe fishymancer, but the last time I tried one he died when I fell asleep....
So I started BonyBear the bonemancer, and got him as far as the Black Marsh, and lvl 15.
Good luck to all.

No problem AE it's OK to put your updates here will keep the ladder more alive.
I made a decision and started a new character. I will try out the Avenger, I really love palladins right now.
Is there any expert here on which merc I will use, last time I did an Avenger I used Coldmerc from act3. Probably will do the same again, he is doing rather good damage with maxed conviction.

Knowing the way you play, AE, you could put a Guardian on here and I wouldn't have a problem. But, um, please don't. You've got more than your fair share already. :lol:
Bachar-Yerian finally finished the Passages and plucked poor Anya from her icy prison. For once, she actually gave me something useful. Look at this:
Pain Visage
Jawbone Visor
Defense: 60
Durability: 25 of 25
(Barbarian Only)
Required Strength: 58
Required Level: 42
Item Version: 1.10 Expansion
Item Level: 70
Fingerprint: 0x50ece7b0
+4 to Life
+3 to Mana
Poison Resist +5%
+2 to Barbarian Skill Levels
+2 to Increased Speed (Barbarian Only)
+3 to Battle Cry (Barbarian Only)
12% Chance to cast Level 4 Nova when struck
Amazingly, his def goes up when he switches from Rockstopper to this. His Rockstopper is def 186. Those +skills really make a difference.
I did a quick check and found he was running with 204% fire res (before NatRes). I decided he could lighten his inventory a bit and give him some room for more finds. So he immediately found a Berserker's Hauberk. If only he could upgrade a set item. The Hauberk is def 90 and his Godly Ancient is def 699. I don't think I'm gonna make that switch. :lol:

Damn you DX, right after I started a new char. Now I want to go and start an avenger too.
As for the merc, I always liked a defiance merc... going for the extra safety.
Good luck with Sainted_Ploppy.

@CB: My condolencies for your lose and good luck with the bonemancer. Necromancer is my favorite char! So, welcome if you have any questions.
@AE: You know the answer: it is OK if you take The Rules of our ladder. If not then it is fair play to all other SPF ladder players. You can always stay in your other forum’s ladder – I know that it is there (GOAL – gamer’s oasis alternative ladder).
I’m busy with my TWDII+Sept chars. They are doing fine except the death of my Pal, Delon. He was suddenly mobbed by Diablo’s balrog minion pack. He was unable to escape since he was surrounded. So he is dead because of my wry hands and “DON’T USE ESC KEY!†rule of Sept.
Too bad, that we actually don’t have working ladder due to a strange problem. It looks like Borlag don’t have time/way to solve it and there is no any other SPFer, who knows PHP language. Too bad, too bad, …

Sorry for tempting you to start a new character.
Now I don't know what merc I will use. I thought a cold from act3 would be safer. Most of the creatures will get frozen because some CI will get removed by conviction, and frozen creatures don't scare me much.
Well I will get a defiance in act2 then I have to wait and see when I get to act3.
Well time to get my avenger to work
Good Luck all
