Hello.
I dont know if anybody cares about this, but I wanted to share it anyways.

My untwinked Barbarian Anger made it to level 99.

I played in Single Player without plugy (but ladder runewords enabled).
I started this project on the 4.12.2019 and made it to 99 on the 12.11.2021.
With the release of d2r i converted my savefile and continued there.

I farmed Baal from level 90 to 98. Baalruns I think about 3000.

Then i did nihlathak until level 99. About 13000 runs.

Gear

Nith only got 98-99?? Is this the best way when going solo? Would seal popping on p1 then getting Diablo on p8 then doing ninth make it faster? Baal runs overall too slow on a solo barb at that point I guess? Even if u did the waves on p1 then Baal on p8?

this is the fastes way yes. Dia runs are horrible with barb imo.
Btw dia exp is capped at p7 and baal at p3.
Only disadvantages nihla brings is the risk of death. so on hardcore baal and dia from 98-99 could be an suboptimal alternative.
But in general conc barb is an excellent nihla runner.
