Alright is anyone interested in walking from normal to hell in the PTR (Patch Test Realm) for fun?
  1. You can use any items you currently have and can be any level that you want
  2. We will be doing every single quest
  3. There will be 1 of each character and an extra of any type(since there are only 7 classes)
  4. You basically must have no life(So we can have fun and take it slow to knock it out together)
  5. Basically same as above, you must have ample time on you hands to commit
  6. No raging & flaming at eachother, we are only looking for GM people.
  7. Since we will be walking there will be no teleport.
  8. This will be in Softcore
  9. There will be small breaks don't worry :)
  10. If a class specific items drop only let that class get it, be nice to your team mates and help them out :D

These are the rules set for now until I think of any more that need to be implemented.

Players, Jsp, Account, Character name
Amazon - Empty
Assassin - Scaryghoul - *Scaryghoul - CabbageWarrior
Necromancer - Empty
Barbarian - Empty
Sorceress - Empty
Druid - Empty
Paladin - Empty
Extra character - Empty

Before any of you rage about this being the wrong forum, there is no correct forum to place this in so I decided to place it here.
This may be the last time where we all start fresh and all realms are dumped into one!

I will do this for the new ladder as well :)
But this is the only/last time we can play a realm where everyone starts fresh and all realms are shoved into one :D

When do you plan to start?

I'd be interested, especially testing different kinds of Sorc...
ImO Respec allows many very fast strategies when ladder finally resets...

As soon as we have all the players, but like I said, you basically must have no life and no time restrictions to the computer(Emergencies aside)

Fast strategies? All it is going to allow new Ladder players, is for them to not care about pumping 1000 strength until they get good enough gear 3 years later and then be able to respec everything into Vita. Not to mention, allow them to pump into Holy Bolt without worrying either.

I like the idea either way. It can help in many different ways.

ImO the stat/skill-respec allows faster Ladder-Rush + Levelling later...

Take the Sorc for example... in Norm / in general at the beginning Sorcs have a hard time dealing Damage and not running out of Mana... but at the same time they have a Summon Nec as blocker... also NOBODY wanted to be conviction-bitch for them usually...

Now what you could do:

Push Energy = Mana, +skill Warmth = gg to start, let Summons block for you + pump Nec's LR / Decrep / Amp
Skill Enchant = gg Dmg and fast runs for Summons
Skill one Dmg-Dealer from the lower Levels or whatever...

THEN, respec, go with Frozen Orb (basically a FO Sorc kills Nightmare ALONE) + have another two Sorcs with different Elements play along you while having High-Lvl-Conviction up all the time from a Pally (who WILL do the favor, since he knows he can respec to Hammer once you arrive in Hell Mode etc...)

It does not necessarily make the gamplay easier in specific areas, but it DOES make it easier to put a proper party together and not have "wasted" chars (Curse Nec, Pure Convictionist, Mone-elemental Sorcs, etc.) after the first phase of rush is done...

Awesome explanation, I was going to write out something that long but to lazy atm, just looking for team mates :)

Looking to hopefully get this rolling by at least 11AM EST, it's 8:09AM atm.
