This is my second time making a 1.09 bowazon on single player.

For this walkthrough; I have decided i'm going to allow myself to use rare items that I have recently farmed from my 1.00 walk which can be found HERE
The 1.00 walk is still ongoing, although I have beaten hell mode I am still farming for gear.
I also might use some of the items that I currently have in my "shared stash" from the last time I played. Only some basic upgrades if I get desperate enough. I won't take any of my old bow's or anything that will be too cheap
It may be frowned upon to use items I previously found, but I don't care. That was the reason I farmed them in the first place. I already did the walk without having any gear to help me, this time it's different.

My interest in diablo 2 is very low right now, which is why i'm not going to make this extremely difficult for myself so I actually will finish this in a reasonable amount of time.

I'm using Plugy for the obvious benefits. I will try not to cheat with skill resets but not promising

the 1.09 "/players x" command can go up to players 64.
I will also be using the players xx feature, at different times for different reasons.

Goals:
Beat hell baal
find windforce? (not going to happen lol)



giving fg prize to who can guess:
my first unique : 10 fg
my first set item : 10 fg
death location: 30 fg
death level : 50 fg



some notes about 1.09
- There are no synergies for skills.
- You can NOT buy mana pots from NPC's
- There are NO over powered 1.10 / ladder only runewords. (no enigma, coh, etc.)
- Players 64

good luck

leveling in blood moor / cold plains, messing with high players x
this is so much easier than playing players 1 Lol I love it



I broke my javelin? lol what the fck



i'm leveling with poison javelin for now. Poison damage is bugged and stacks super high or something, it's kicking ass right now for sure

Didn't realize plugy supports more than just 1.13, pretty cool.

first unique : Umbral Disk
first set item : Cathan's Seal
death level : NEVER

GL my guy.

my first unique : Bloodfist
my first set item : Artic belt
death location: nightmare throne
death level : 72

I took hsarus boots from my shared stash, along with these 9 max / 4 min jewels



then I went to my 1.07 character which can be found HERE and converted my 12 MAEK ring.



Well that was a bad idea
after converting my character... for some reason... it WIPED MY WHOLE FUCKING SHARED STASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

there was 20 + pages of useful gear in there oh well. more of a challenge now

I'm done messing with poison jav, switched to bow and currently owning everything in p15

everything is going very smoothly. I just rescued deckard cain.
This is what my stats / damage looks like, along with my current weapon



I am moving through monsters, feeling like I am on players 8... but it's on P25!
I have been using regular bow attack damage and multi shot up to this point. it's all from my helm/weapon sockets, and my charms.
The jewel in my bow was like +8 fire damage or something like that

my charms currently are
two small charms with +1-2 fire damage
small charm with 1-6 light damage
medium charm with 1-6 poison damage
and a medium charm with +7 to life


Made my way to outer cloister. decided to give players 64 a shot and took a video to show it

song : xxxtentacion - rare pt2

it makes me uncomfortable seeing u getting xp from fallens
gl with this

rip stash. No backup file anywhere? :/
I guess we found an one upside to not using any mods..

P64 looks is hilarious. I wonder how bad it is in Hell.
A full p64 playthrough is still on my todo list but I think I'd hate myself for actually doing it.

Easy boss kills on P64, thanks to the HP-overflow bug.
IIRC I did Meph runs on P64 back then, because it was faster than P8.
