okay so got my hand on a tal and made stealth, while the exp is good there, its so slow and boring, the 1 rune per run is just bullshit, getting a 3 ral weapon would likely be a really great choice,
but to me it just ruins the felling of char Development, its too OP in my opinion.


another life char :) oh and yeah I just remembered that I forgot to do the hammer quest,,,,, very strange, I will have to do that later.


everything is working great, time to find andy!

Will be following of course... There's just something I'm worried about... Did you actually Jinx your own WT with the name and picture? Picking a character that has died... You're playing a dangerous game man!
