The Untwinked Level 99 Progress Thread, Revenge of the 99ers

Bewitch · Sep 5, 2018

Some exp done again

Drops were: Vex, Fire sk, 19 life 9 lr sc, maras 28, ist rune, 17l 8 lr sc, Sur rune, ele sk 6 dex, nec summon sk, Tal Armor, pb sk 4 str, Jah rune, Jah rune (both within 10 min^^), Java sk, Sur, 20l sc, Trap sk, viper 27/9

I also made a coh for merc now, got a 4 soxed eth bugged armor (low def wire haha) so merc wears delirium helmed now which is much more relaxing. First i though im so far in 97 alrdy i can actually just go on without deli cause with 98 i prolly just go for treachery on merc with 0 lifeleech but now i still have the runes for infi left, so its fine.

Also added a old webcam to the stream, but it was to crappy so i bought a new one now which is fine

Dropvideos:

@Bewitch: This is an outrage!Do You realize, that i've droped ONLY two JAH runes during entire career?!

I mean, congrats

ffs · Sep 5, 2018

Agreed, and he's been finding tons of HRs already! IIRC this really adds up to a ridiculous amount already. @Bewitch, care to share what's in your HR stash?

Bewitch · Sep 5, 2018

I will, im at a concert atm but i will tomorrow!
@Yng i do p8 CS, but drops same ofc^^

Yng · Sep 5, 2018

P7 CS is going to produce runes for sure if you run it enough. Good progress @Bewitch, the skinny pale man awaits you in HoV.

ffs · Sep 5, 2018

Definitely you'd expect many runes leveling to 98 in CS, but to me it seemed @Bewitch made twice as much as all the previous CS runners already.

Could just be a feeling though..

T72on1 · Sep 5, 2018

I share that feeling ...

Dispo96 · Sep 5, 2018

@Bewitch

I"m curious... Why do you have throw in your left click?

Gynli · Sep 6, 2018

@Disposition I 'used to' have throw on my left click, so that when/if I misclick onto a monster while moving, the character doesn't go into any casting/attacking animation; the character just says 'i can't do that' and stands still. That way, I can move as soon as I click onto the ground correctly. I imagine it'd be similar reasons for @Bewitch.

Yng · Sep 6, 2018

How many of each Vex+ have you seen in CS so far? @Bewitch

Bewitch · Sep 6, 2018

So in stash i got 3 Vex Runes (+a Hoto),
2 Ohm Runes (+a cta)
3 Lo Runes
4 Sur Runes
0 Bers (2x CoH)
5 Jah Runes (+a Dream helmed)
1 Cham Rune

pretty nice^^

And for throw pretty much what Gynli said, i actually dont understand how u can use anything else then throw on some characters^^

T72on1 · Sep 6, 2018

I assume (most) of the runes for HotO, CtA and CoH were farmed in in LK, some Surs probably as well, then you moved on to CS? Sorry, I know it's probably in this thread, so I must have read it, but can't remember.

That's a crazy amount of HRs already.

PhineasB1 · Sep 6, 2018

I don't know if it's too out of step, although on high end ornate expectations. The two Jahs in succession is super fortunate and probably influences perception, and maybe also a function of how someone's updates roll out. For references, here is the summary from Hiatus in CS with a rundown of total runes: https://www.purediablo.com/forums/t...enge-of-the-99ers.923384/page-75#post-8811543
I recall it was middle road, but it's not too out of step w @Bewitch who's almost 98 (congrats on progress by the way). As someone else said, the high runes will fall in CS leveling. It's really a function of how those Vex+ rolls come.

Pb_pal1 · Sep 6, 2018

As you all know from the MFO, Klaus has hit 95.

A more detailed breadown of his S/U findings can be found in his MFO writeup, but I'll still give a brief rundown here for posterity's sake, and also catch you up on his non-S/U findings.

He of course had his 2nd Asterons drop, along with a Mang's to take a bite out of the top end of the grail, and a smattering of mid-level stuff like Bonehew, Kira's,
Guillaume's, Gimmershreds, LoH and other semi-useful things for future characters.

As for other finds, the AT proves to be.. not so awesome with rune drops, supplying him with only an Um for the entire level. He did, however, find a couple cool socketables. He found a 2nd 4-socket, 40 res all Sacred Targe (this one superior though, so not great for repair costs) and also this cute little bow:

Code:

Superior Grand Matron Bow
Two Hand Damage: 16 - 82
Durability: 41 of 55
Required Level: 58
Required Strength: 108
Required Dexterity: 152
Fingerprint: 0xc15a1678
Item Level: 85
Version: Expansion 1.10+
+3 to Bow and Crossbow Skills (Amazon Only)
15% Enhanced Damage
+3 to Attack Rating
4 Sockets (0 used)

Cool! First perfect one I've ever found so it will need a character built around it eventually, I just don't know what yet. I suppose it will just be dictated by whatever surplus runes I assemble first. Any suggestions?

Another thing I may as well talk about is that NDEs have entirely vanished. I knew going in with over 4k life and maxed resistances in the AT would be pretty safe, but he's just simply never been in danger. This is partly due to the nature of play with Fissure in general which keeps him out of the way, and also thanks to a merc and bear taking the brunt of any danger. They are obviously quite durable as well, with Oak and BO active. I don't think Klaus has dipped below 2k life yet since leaving LK, so that is definitely promising for his road ahead.

The flip-side to this of course is that he doesn't kill all that quickly. Don't get me wrong, it's quick enough, but he'll never compare to the Blizzys and Hammerdins of the world. I'll test out some other potential leveling options later, but for now he is content in the Tunnels.

Skillers found:
- 2x Entrapping (one found, one cubed)
- Chilling
- Spiritual

Happy Running folks!

I will update the chart when DirkStruan's exact experience total, but he just slayed NM Mephisto and Diablo last night (both drops rubbish), and is currently at level 61 (I think). Just beforehand, I used the cube recipe to upgrade my merc's polearm to a Partizan....the cube put in 5 sockets, so alas Insight was out and I settled for Honor. Between his Honor and my upped Hellplague, the fight with Diablo was very tedious indeed, with me having to revive my merc 5 times before Diablo fell and dropped all yellows (Meph at least dropped a Coif of Glory, for Pete's sake

). The NM Hellforge dropped a Lem, so any hopes for an early Oath were dashed. I'm considering using the Lem on either Passion until I get to The Pit in Hell and can start farming, or making a Treachery (the 45% IAS is very handy indeed when trying for the 4 fpa Zeal attack)....or perhaps waiting for a second one to cube up to Pul.

For the immediate moment, I'm considering crafting either a blood or hit power elite weapon (depends on what drops in Act V - hoping maybe a blue Tyrant Club, Truncheon, Mighty Scepter, or Reinforced Mace can drop that early?) in an attempt to get some more damage before Ancients and Baal. Does anyone know what minimum character level you have to be get the Cruel affix onto a crafted weapon?

Well, its time to do some update...joined MFO, ended up 4th in Pindle category which was huge dissapointment after 6200 p5 runs finished...at least, i'm leaving Pindle for good

There are drops

View attachment 10776

View attachment 10777

On top of that, two Messerschmidts reavers, and before tourney some other drops including Natalyas mark, which completed this set

Started some testing running in Pits, best drop so far is my fifth IK armor from start

View attachment 10778

Forgot to mention, reached lvl 95 during MFO, right now i'm sitting at 2.553 mark...also, almost 400 grailers from the start which is very nice aswell, missing 9 set items and 96 uniques

Cool stuff everyone. @Pb_pal That GMB is sexy, and two Astreon's is amazing, one of the 2 items I've never found until this day.

While I really enjoyed running MFO with an optimized MF character, I kind of wish I had a 99er that could participate and make a good bit of progress as well like @Pb_pal, @PhineasB, @RIP. Maybe I'll start another 99er to be ready next time.

Work has been absolutely terrible during and in particular after MFO, literally haven't started the game since.

I will be visiting friends on the weekend, but I plan to pick up Ric again next week! GL all.

Should I make a Death runeword? The stats seem pretty good, but I'm not sure what my final weapons are going to be. And eventually if I run andariel / mephisto / diablo / baal / pindle I would think that the high crushing blow of death would be really good at killing them. I think whirlwind can proc the freeze bolt on attack even when its on my offhand but can someone confirm this? If it can't proc, seems like death is a superduper good WW offhand

ffs · Sep 7, 2018

@Tatterson In short, Death is great, Grief is better.

You'd need to run (or look for) the numbers as to how it compares when aiming bosses specifically, but even if Grief is behind in that regard, I'd be surprised if it made a meaningful enough difference to not go with Grief overall. It's just so so good it kind of (sadly) makes other options almost obsolete unless you're going 2-handed.

That being said, Death is an incredibly good weapon, not only for 2-handers. Nice Frenzy offhand, not the best for WW though because of its lack of attack speed (and being ideally made in slower bases on top of that).

T72on1 · Sep 7, 2018

AB wiki: no Chance to Cast of any kind is applies when using WW.

If you already have Grief, it's probably better. But since this in an untwinked setting, and there's not much else you can do with a Vex probably, you could always try it out if you have / find a good base. After all Death has a lot going for it: huge ED%, especially with a high roll, huge CB and scaling DS. O yes, let's not forget the mana steal, which gives you more flexibility for the jewelry slots.
