The Untwinked Level 99 Progress Thread, The Saviours of Sanctuary Rise Anew

Wowza! Lots of great updates! And (belated) congrats to @Bewitch , it's great to see some old characters back in action!

I've made a bit of progress myself:

Das-Omen
CLVL 98.7 Lightning Sorceress

So, not a lot of progress for four months ... but it's been hard fought on a couple of fronts.

First, I'm continuing to level without Terror Zones ... because that's the mission I set out to accomplish back in December of 2021.

And second, and this is really what's slowing things down, I've just been having the hardest time resolving the tendonitis in my right arm. It started back in May of 2022, about when Das-Omen hit clvl 98. And if I'd known then that it was going to go on for this long, I probably would have said: 'Damn the torpedoes!' and punched her through to clvl 99 last summer. But instead, I took the extremely cautious, and wholly unsatisfying approach, of trying to resolve it by giving up the things I want to do (including D2), while continuing to do the job, that seemed like the most likely culprit all along. With all but giving up almost all hobbies proving ineffective, in August I finally resolved to give up my job. I tried to quit, instead I got promoted :rolleyes: . Probably just as well. Now I get to stay on the same health insurance plan while doing physical therapy ... which seems to be helping! So, perhaps with a new role at work, and physical therapy, I'll finally make some real progress towards getting my right arm better!

But, enough about that. This is supposed to be a Das-Omen progress report! She progressed from 98.5 in May, to 98.7 in August (before the right arm really, and suddenly, got bad again ... hence the delayed progress report). Progress came from Baal runs, with daily sessions lasting half an hour or less. So yeah, it's taking a while for the xp to add up. But on the bright side, it's hard to get bored just doing Baal runs when you're doing so few per day! Even so, I considered changing to Diablo runs at some point ... But then didn't. Mostly because it's just so satisfying having a character that's operating in a pre-D2R paradigm, and can still average about two and a half minute Baal runs. I loved my fully geared 1.11b Hammerdin (enough to take him to clvl 99), but the difference in power between the two characters is just staggering. Fully geared Lightning Sorceress FTW!

Another reason for opting to stick with Baal, was that I felt there was a better shot for making grail progress. And it seemed to work! I managed to check the last two outstanding set items off Das-Omen's personal grail:

And then, once Das-Omen's set grail was complete, a few runs later, the game offered up the final hold out once again :D .

And a few other repeat TC 87s dropped between clvl 98.5 and 98.7:

This is not the S/U Caduceus I'm looking for ...

Where the unique TC 87s were hiding, I know not ...

So, Das-Omen's personal grail stands at:

Tyrael's Might, Sacred Armor (TC 87)
Executioner's Justice, Glorious Axe (TC 87)
Death's Fathom, Dimensional Shard (TC 87)
Death Cleaver, Berserker Axe (TC 87)
Steelrend, Ogre Gauntlets (TC 87)
Steel Pillar, War Pike (TC 87)
Death's Web, Unearthed Wand (TC 87)
Darkforce Spawn, Bloodlord Skull (TC 87)
Astreon's Iron Ward, Caduceus (TC 87)
Stormlash, Scourge (TC 78)
Metalgrid, Amulet
Blinkbat's Form, Leather Armor (TC 3)
Knell Striker, Scepter (TC 3)
Torch of Iro, Wand (TC 3)

The HanShotFirst 1.10+ career grail is at -2 with Astreon's and Tyrael's being the final holdouts. I'd really like to find both of those before I start making characters that use Terror Zones (but could probably settle for just finding Astreon's). Fingers are crossed for Das-Omen's final .3 of clvl 98! ... otherwise I'll have some deciding to do ...

Gear:

Hasn't changed much since the start of clvl 98. And in fact, the only gear change since 98.5 was an upgrade from 46 MF War Traveller's to 49 MF War Traveller's :p . Thank you Baal. But, I'll go ahead and repost gear for those wondering. I also uploaded her to the D2Planner at maxroll back at clvl 98.33 here should anyone be interested/prefer that format.

Future Plans:

I'm going to continue my break from D2 for a bit longer and give my right arm the maximum rest/minimal use possible. The arm has been feeling much better (and made measureable progress in terms of improved range of motion) since changing roles at work and starting physical therapy, but I don't want to press my luck. When I get going again, the plan is Baal, Baal, and more Baal. Geib Astreon's now dude! But until then, I'll be saving up my drop luck and enjoying everyone else's progress updates!

Amazon Sydney Update and adding DoubleTrouble (Double Throw Barb) to the table to join the party on the way to level 99. I also fixed a mistake in the date I had listed for Sydney...I had the year is 2032 and not 2023 (I guess I was playing 9 years in the future :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:)

Sydney is now 97.3...most of the leveling has been done when Worldstone Keep, Tal Rasha's Tombs, Cows, and Chaos were terrorized. Pretty much the best XP farming TZs. I also throw in Arcane Sanctuary for the high chance of runes with all the ghosts and if I only have an hour or so to play, then it is whatever is Terrorized at the time.

Best drops since level 96.2 (last update)

2 items left now on my lifetime grail! Tyreals :confused: and Cranium Basher :(Screenshot012.pngScreenshot013.png

Nice Rune Drop

Last Drop so far

So depending on the amount of time I get to play, what zones are terrorized, or which character I feel like playing will determine if I level Sydney the Amazon or DoubleTrouble the Barb. Both will be played for sure though. Once Sydney reaches level 99, I will start a 4th character on the journey to Untwinked Guardian and hopefully have a chance at level 99. I feel like if I get a character to level 90/91 without death, then its a pretty good shot at finishing the run. Next character in the pipeline is a FoH Pally for sure.

Til next time. Stay safe and enjoy this great game!

I've been skimping pretty hard with Diablo the last year but found myself enjoying it a little more agian. I was at early 90 when I revisited Hartwig the barbarian and have played fairly casually over the last month. The last week I spent a little more time on him and had some good drops and a level up. 91 isn't a huge feat but my highest record is level 93 and that was with online carries mostly so it's satisfying to see some progress again.
I've been surprised to realize that I miss the hunt for optimal gear. I know that true gigachad gear is a never ending search but once I got two griefs, Enigma and most my relevant Uniques it felt extremely daunting to feel like all I had left was to level up. You get to a point where your kill speed is effective enough that true MF is probably just worse than level grinding and letting any items come over time but that can feel kind of mundane and like it lacks direction since the levels are so few and far between.

But, all that said, I've found a happy balance of letting go of pure optimization mindsets to just enjoy the game and keep taking small steps, even if they aren't particularly efficient.

Meph dropped a Sur, Shako, and Guillame's
Andy dropped Highlord's
Pindle got me my first ever Griffon's! (18/14)

I've been rocking a rare amulet with: 1barb skill, 10fcr, 23fire, 5LL, 8 str
With the rare amulet I can hit 110 fcr with wizspike on swap but I always hear people rave about Highlord's. Any recommendations on which is best? I don't have any other decent fcr gear without making big sacrifices for it so I can't use highlord's and max fcr breakpoint until I get some other upgrades but if I'm missing out by stashing it for now, let me know.

@smorris54 I might be misreading, but wouldn't you want to respec to Frenzy or something to tackle Ubers? The lifetap proc from Drac's can't work with WW. Seems like a budget setup with anything with Crushing Blow (Black is cheap), Gface, Goblin Toe / Gore Riders, Dracul's, and a wand of lifetap would work well. (I would hit Mephisto for Drac's... he gave me quite a few!) Add a Treachery prebuff with some Angelics for a really high attack rating (could also use Demon Limb pre-buff for even more AR) and you probably should be good as long as those resists are really overbuffed for Mephisto.

Helez is *still* level 90, but he went on to tackle the Ubers. I opted to run for a full set of keys and then run Ubers as soon as I had them, so I didn't want to switch gear a lot, so the gearing is below--standard stuff.

Key Running Gear / Uber Gear
Harlequin Crest / Guillaume's Face
Arachnid Mesh / Thundergod's Vigor
Magefist / Dracul's Grasp
RavenFrost & Rare Ring
Mara's Kaleidescope
Enigma
Heaven's Light (ShaelShael)
Herald of the Zakarum
CtA & Spirit on Switch
Goblin Toe
Wand of Lifetap in Cube

My resists were maxed except for cold, so a Treachery prebuff (+60 res all) and running Salvation (+~100 res all) was plenty to counteract Mephisto's -125 Conviction aura, so I was able to only have to switch out 3 pieces of gear (helm, belt, gloves) to run Ubers, and it wasn't too fiddly. I used a wand of life tap in the cube as well for the initial cast.

In SC I have a fully geared Uber-specific Smiter with Exile, etc., but Helez seemed just as strong at running Ubers, though a tad more fiddly with the pre-buff and lifetap wand.

The results were:
Uber run #1 - Necro torch
Uber run #2 - Necro torch
Uber run #3 - Paladin torch!
Screenshot094.png

Sort of a middling roll, but not bad at all, and much quicker than I expected to obtain it!

I'm thinking I'll just hit the Terror Zones, Baal runs, Chaos Sanctuary, etc., and level some for the time being. I don't see this guy needing a ton of gear improvements, though if anyone has suggestions for a BIS upgrade I'm open. Because I'm splitting between FoH and Smite, the gear sort of has to split the difference between the two. FCR is 75% on switch, CB at 58% for Smite. +18 all Paladin Skills and +21 to combat skills, which means lvl 41 FoH. FoH and Holy Bolt are maxed, and I've got 1 hard point in Smite, 20 in Holy Shield, and 20 in Fanatacism, so Smite works well, and 5 pts in Redemption for mana/life.

Oh that's my mistake, I forgot WW doesn't work with life tap. Frenzy is a good idea, it would probably make life easier to just run Frenzy rather than force WW
 
My necromancer finally managed to beat Baal Hell on Lvl 85. The journey was a bit of a slog. Took me about half a year. Best piece of gear is this rare amulet: +2 Summoning, +16 Energy, +14@, +30 Fire Resist, 13% MF. Noteworthy rest are a 'Lore' Helm, a 'Rhyme' Preserved Head and a 'Stealth' Armor. Rolled a mediocre LK map. Doing Pindle/Eldritch runs though till he is Lvl 86 as I will probably die a lot in LK.

Just wrapped up a 1000 runs of hell Mephisto tonight with Hartwig the Barb and found some good upgrades. With 375 mf it's a 1/1700 chance to drop Arreat's Face from Meph on P1 so I'm kinda sad it's still evading me but I've improved my gear enough that I think it's time move to key farming until I have enough to roll a few torches. The skill bonus isn't the biggest improvement from a torch for barbarian but a decent one will help my survivability so it's still worth grabbing a few and I'm low enough level to still get decent XP from farming for them so it's not a complete waste.

Noteworthy drops:
Eth Reaper Toll 220ED/14LL
Arachnid mesh x2
Andy's Visage x2
Azurewrath x2 (good grailer for me)
Dracul's grasp
Gheed's x2
Harlequin Crest x5 (2 Eth)
Highlord's Wrath x3
Rainbow Facets x6 (5/5 fire and 5/5 light wasn't bad after getting my griffon's earlier)
Skin of the Vipermagi x6 (eventually rolled a 35@)
War trav x4 (nothing above 48%)

I also got a lucky Stone of Jordan that turned into a 10/10/10 anni. The 10% XP is great but it made me laugh seeing all 10's, still happy to use it over my 14/10/7.

Arachnid Mesh let me swap to HighLord's Wrath and keep max fcr so I threw on Ravenfrost for CBF to make up for replacing Trang's belt. That adjustment plus the eth Reaper's on my merc helped me jump from an average of 33 seconds/run to about 29-30 seconds/run.

IDK if I'm just being superstitious but it cracks me up to see so many duplicates of decent drops before ever finding one of my last upgrades. I know Vipermagi, Reaper's toll and Shako are much higher odds than Arreat's face with Hell Meph but after 5-6 of each, it's starting to feel spiteful.

Good luck grinding!
 
Hey there. Haven't been active here for months and I had a good reason for it.

Unfortunately I have to tell you that Exanimate has fallen o_O. It actually happened in February and when it happened, I was so shocked/ disgusted that I frankly thought that it is time to take a break and to move to D4 altogether. Exanimate was approximately 100 M (~ 40-50 hours) away from hitting 99 and the whole journey would have been completed in ~ 400-405 hours.

How he died you might ask ... he fell, because I started to watch other people streaming during the runs ... the runs became too dull and monotonous and I felt that Nihlathak, nor these minions in that chamber have no chance of harming this hero ... unfortunately I was wrong.

Retrospectively I can tell that this PN/ CE build was super fun in CS till level 98, but once I started to run Nihlathak, I really felt the overwhelming lack of incentive. There was no challenge, nor were there many options to improve my equipment really and these runs just felt like a huge boresome grind. Perhaps I can advise other HC players to take few breaks here and there ... and to not start streaming other D2 players 😁!

Right now I am contemplating about starting another HC character. As I have completed 4 x 99 (two on Bnet), I have three possible characters to choose from. Well ... two really, because as it stands, I obviously wont play another Necromancer class any time soon 😁. It is going to be either Assassin or Druid then. I will keep you guys updated.
 
Oh no @D30D0R3 that's brutal. RIP Exanimate. Glad to hear that you're considering another run at this. Good luck. I can highly recommend the Assassin as versatile and safe. @Pb_pal and I both also got Druids through unscathed, his in HC, so I think either is a solid choice.

Update incoming now following the conclusion of MFO. I ran Sydney through TZs up until the MFO finishing off level 97-98. That way I could start the MFO fresh at level 98. The finds from the last update til MFO were amazing!

MFO started with Chaos Sanctuary which is awesome for EXP when TZ'd. That 1 hour gained Sydney over 10% of level 98 to start. Found an ETH Grailer with The Redeemer.

Screenshot056.png
The next 10% came through a few more TZs and capped off in Tal Rasha's Tombs with a nice pair of gloves.
Screenshot057.png
More TZs with some cows mixed in but nothing worth noting of drops. 30% done was crossed over during TZ ancient Tunnels
Screenshot059.png
The next note worthy drop came after Sydney hit the 40% mark of level 98...could have been a great drop, instead it's a let down to some people when they see this set item.
Screenshot060.png
The end of the MFO saw Sydney cross over the 50% mark of level 98. Only 136mil EXP go... :ROFLMAO:

Gotta stay focused on this last stretch. It would be devastating to lose her now.

Until next time. Have fun!

Hello everybody! I need a bit of advice for my UT99 necromancer (summoner at the moment). I think farming LK is somewhat of a no brainer. I got quite lucky there and aquired already 2 SUR and one BER. Most probably the next step is to keep on grinding till I get a third BER and cube an Enigma, right? Even if it hurts to cube 2 BER runes to a JAH (As an alternative I could build a Bramble as I already have OHM and SUR and farm cows as a Poison Nec for a JAH rune. But I have no gear except the Bramble...) With the Enigma aquired I could respec him to a Bone Necro and start to hit terrorized Andariel, Meph and "normal" Meph whilst still farming LK for additional BER runes for Beast and Infinity. Then with the base gear aquired I would go farming keys, probably still as Bone. With enough keys I would then try my hand at UT (as a summoner) to get a torch and may be an Anni if I get lucky with SoJs. Any suggestions? In the end I plan to play him as a summoner for the grind to 99.

Hartwig was able to clear ubers several times and after getting an 11/13 barb torch I figured I'd let it go for now. It was kinda fun so I imagine I'll be going back down the line to mix things up but that's good enough for the time being.
After ubers, I started hitting TZ's, Baal and CS runs to get some xp rolling. The good TZ's were incredible xp and were big helps but between mediocre zones and ww barb struggling on some of the others, most my time was spent at Baal runs and CS. I was surprised at some of the zones though. A few ones like Kurast and Dark Woods actually were great xp if I only ran the guaranteed superuniques. I could hit close to 1mil/2minutes. I got him up to level 95 the other night and am happy with his progress so far.

I've gone back for another round of MFing to find Arreat's Face before I continue leveling. I ended up dying once on p8 terrorized CS and it only set me back 30 minutes or so since the XP was so good there afterwards but it got me thinking. I hadn't considered fortitude over enigma on my ww barb because I assumed that time saved with mobility would be more significant than marginally faster kill speeds. But now that I respecced and dropped item find all together, I have frenzy and enough points in increased speed to really get moving fast. I feel like its gotta be worth running fortitude in certain areas like CS and WSK. I figure I can teleport to CS or throneroom and then swap armor from my cube and it should be a significant improvement in dps and survivability.

I have 2 questions that could use some guidance.
- First, I've been thinking about weapon upgrades and some sources say nothing beats double grief while others advocate for beast, death, last wish or ebotd. Clear speeds are never gonna be insanely fast on a ww barb in some p8 areas compared to other classes but would any of those weapons be worth trying out?
- Second, I love the idea of building an A5 merc and running around with 2 barbs. This also compliments the idea of experimenting with more runewords as long as my bases are swords. If I make a beast or last wish and find it's less effective on my char then I can pass it along to the merc and still get value out of my runes through the auras. The question being that since I dont have buckets of runes to throw around, which runewords would have good enough overlap between merc and char that there's little risk in making them and never using them? Or is it best to not invest too heavily on the Merc and run upped headstrikers?

current gear:
dual grief (hoto and wizspike swap)
Arrest’s Face
enigma
arachnid mesh
loh
Goreriders
Raven Frost
dual leech, dual res ring
highlord's

Edit:
Lol, p1 hell meph was around 1/1900 for arreat's face and hell andy p3 was 1/1300. I ran a few hundred andy runs awhile ago but liked the other items I could find from meph so I stuck with that but literally 30 minutes after my post I did a few dozen andy runs and finally got my arreat's face. Bottom roll on LL and max ED is kinda funny ngl

I came back to diablo 2 after a long break and while contemplating what I could do I decided that I wanted to get my first 99 lvl wind druid. It may not be the most common character I choose, but I decided to choose someone I like to play to keep me motivated in my goal. It's definitely a long term goal I'll keep you posted about my progress!

Here is Onnim.

I hadn't considered fortitude over enigma on my ww barb because I assumed that time saved with mobility would be more significant than marginally faster kill speeds. But now that I respecced and dropped item find all together, I have frenzy and enough points in increased speed to really get moving fast. I feel like its gotta be worth running fortitude in certain areas like CS and WSK. I figure I can teleport to CS or throneroom and then swap armor from my cube and it should be a significant improvement in dps and survivability.

I have 2 questions that could use some guidance.
- First, I've been thinking about weapon upgrades and some sources say nothing beats double grief while others advocate for beast, death, last wish or ebotd. Clear speeds are never gonna be insanely fast on a ww barb in some p8 areas compared to other classes but would any of those weapons be worth trying out?
- Second, I love the idea of building an A5 merc and running around with 2 barbs. This also compliments the idea of experimenting with more runewords as long as my bases are swords. If I make a beast or last wish and find it's less effective on my char then I can pass it along to the merc and still get value out of my runes through the auras. The question being that since I dont have buckets of runes to throw around, which runewords would have good enough overlap between merc and char that there's little risk in making them and never using them? Or is it best to not invest too heavily on the Merc and run upped headstrikers?

current gear:
dual grief (hoto and wizspike swap)
Arrest’s Face
enigma
arachnid mesh
loh
Goreriders
Raven Frost
dual leech, dual res ring
highlord's

Edit:
Lol, p1 hell meph was around 1/1900 for arreat's face and hell andy p3 was 1/1300. I ran a few hundred andy runs awhile ago but liked the other items I could find from meph so I stuck with that but literally 30 minutes after my post I did a few dozen andy runs and finally got my arreat's face. Bottom roll on LL and max ED is kinda funny ngl
If I were in your position, I’d be more inclined to run ‘Fortitude’.

As for Frenzy Barb mercenary weapons: How about equipping him with dual ‘Lawbringer’ swords? The rune investment is low, and Decrepify (and Sanctuary) should be helpful to your character.

edit: I’m also a fan of dual ‘Crescent Moon’ on an Act V merc. Once they’re Frenzy’d, they proc Static Field and Chain Lightning like nuts. It’s pretty fun. I feel like ‘Lawbringer’s would be more beneficial to a physical damage build though.
 
I like my Frenzy barb merc. I think one sword needs to be Lawbringer for the decrepify. The other is a toss up with many swords working. Crescent Moon, Azurewrath, or Grief all work

Final stats and skills are as follows. I'll have a more extensive 99er write up coming by the end of the week or into the weekend.Screenshot066.pngScreenshot067.png

Next on the list is DoubleTrouble (Throw barb just dinged 92) as well as my questing FoHdin currently at level 80 in LK, not a guardian yet, I won't add HeavensRain (FoHdin) to the list yet til he is at 90+. I've lost a lot a characters between 80-90 over the years.

So Onnim became Patriarch.
I'm really glad I chose this character because it's really fun to play. It may not be the fastest character, but it's safe and plays really well.

Now the tedious stage of walking to the goal begins. I will probably have to get to lvl 90, then maybe Lower Kurast. I have to see and find out where it's worth it and where it's not. I hope that by walking at my sometimes tortoise pace I won't give up.

You work fast! Good stuff. Any good finds along the way while questing?
Not very much. Certainly can enjoy the fact Ist that fell with HF so besides that it is just these items. Well, and Raven Frost which I did not capture in the photo. I made Smoke, Ancient Pledge and Spirit in weapons. I have some +1 amulet for the druid with 10fcr and rings with fcr. I will keep updating as the progress
