Vega, DX and aman's Dark Project =D

why dont you do hellforge rushes solo, I have just started them up again, and I can run 7 characters through in about 4-5 hours. I am trying to get an ohm and a vex together for an exile for the bm tourny, which is pretty much the same as a LO. I will race you guys.

oh yeah and good luck making one of these :uhhuh: :uhhuh:

Sounds like a deal FC, and not only will we make one of those beauties, but event three! :D

Either that, or we can always drop aman out of the project, for... dying too much :lol:

Btw, if I manage to build and equip a zealot/smiter in time, I would love to take on your in that BM tourney! :D

Was thinking that Death and Fortitude would go quite well together :D

That sounded as a show off post, and this sounds as an envy post ;) . Nice armor btw. I only need a Lo to do it :rolleyes:
 
Well me and Vega did full HF rushes yesterday in 1.5 hour and I guess the same time with Aman in, wont go faster I think which means we can do 3 rushes in 4.5 hour and we have exactly the same amount of runes as you do in the same time.

Doing it alone is a bit more boring moving all those pesky characters, and I actually tested it now and at NM Andy all except 3 D2s crashed although all except one character got the Andy quest but it's still more boring.

Thanks you all on the good input guys I like it and if anyone wants to call me a cheater or the "Sweden cheese" feel free to do so, I promise I wont be offended but I will join a game and PK you :D

DX
 
Some thinks HF rushing is cheating but ALL agree it is cheesy, and as far as I know, a noble person won't do a cheesy deeds. :grrr:

just my two cents

Well I'm glad I'm not a noble person then :D

DX
 
Gib meh roonz joo nubs! :p

Seriously DX and Vega you guys are crazy! I can never seem to finish any of my projects let alone rush the HF that many times. But then again I never find any 1337 itemz or runes and wind up abandoning most projects anyway.
 
Hi buddy!

Well we dont finish projects either we starting new all the time so this game will keep us occupied for alot of years to come :D

DX
 
No we use a modified D2gfx.dll file, with it you can start up Diablo unlimited number of times as long as your computer can handle it, and then you select one character to host and then you join with the other characters.

I don't think it's cheesy, but that's a different argument for a different time and place.

IMO the best way to do this would be a two man team, with one person playing the rusher and the other person playing the 7 mules via a modified .dll file or fast user switching. Anyone who's done much self-rushing knows that you lose a lot of time just switching between the rusher and mules, but with two players you can multi-task (when one player is moving the mules around, the rusher is clearing out the next area). For teams larger than two people you'd only get a marginal increase in speed, but you'll also have to split the rewards more ways.

If you guys get another person, I think it would be best to split into two teams of two and do what I outlined. Since you're doing this in classic, you might as well gamble a dozen or so SoJ's while you're at it. :D
 
well i suggested something similar but me and vega both make characters and have 2 rushers + 6 mules , sure we won't get as much at one rush but it could be easier and it is easier for me to be on the same time as Vega than us all having to be on at the same time.
 
Being a new guy to D2, can y'all tell me what's different about 1.09? I'm guessing it's something about the frequency of higher rune drops.
 
We play 1.09 classic so no act 5 , we get to act 4 hell then convert them to 1.11 Expansion and do the hell forges there :)
 
The reason why people do it in 1.09 is because there's no minimum level requirement to get past Ancients so you save time leveling up. In 1.10 and 1.11 you need at least one questing character at levels 20, 40, and 60 to get past the Ancients in Normal, Nightmare, and Hell respectively.

Not having to do Act 5 doesn't save _that_ much time as long as the character is of level to do Ancients. The only 2 quests required to pass Act 5 are Ancients and Baal, which shouldn't take any longer than 10 minutes in Normal and Nightmare.

kabal, you are totally right of course, and having three people rushing and being rushed at the same time is indeed quite overkill, but you see, the point is being to meet up at least two at a time each time, since we ain't living in the same timezon anyways, so this way- we are sure to be able to some rushes even when not all three can be organized together.

This reminds me- aman, did you sort out the dll issue? Cause so far it's been us three rushing, or me and DX... better get your groove on :D
 
bah keep forgetting / too busy so can't do it tonight but i got all day off tommorow so can fix it then but if worst comes to worst i can use fast user switching :thumbsup:

They're doing it in 1.09. You don't need to do Ancients. I hope you three remember that in Act II, you don't need Summoner quest to get into the tombs. In Act III, you don't need to kill the Council, and in Act V, you don't need to do Ancients. Although since it's classic, there are no Ancients anyway.

My $.02 is that HF rushes are great. I really 'pimped out' my characters with all the HF rushes I did *cough CTA, Grief, Exile, Beast(I actually quit before I made that, but I still had the runes)cough*
