Found Sigon's Gloves! 30% IAS & 10% LL... definitely helps killing speed and sustain!:



Not far from town to Planes of Despair:



Not very far at all to Izual!:

Smith --- dropped Perfect Amethyst, Flawless Ruby / Emerald, Thul (if I remember) --- I still haven't found out how to take images of gear on the ground with the Mac!:



Re-rolled stats/skills, specced in Maces... fast attack speed with the Sigons. This doesn't show stats with war cries (BO is at +10).



Good circlet that I gambled... I don't know whether to use this or keep my MF helmet on (topaz'd up to 36% MF)




Done for the night --- will attempt Diablo soon!

Ugh. Apparently I need to have those images on Imgur and keep them there for them to show up 😱

I'll get back on Imgur in the morning and fix it! Sorry guys

Fixed the images. Luckily I still had them in my Diablo 2 folder and uploaded them again.

This Combat Shrine will be useful against Diablo!



Broke the last seal---time to grab the shrine and fight!:



This fight was long. Combat Shrine wore off when Diablo was still around 60%, and I had spent most of my gold gambling so it came to a point where I couldn't even pay Tyreal (kind of weird that an angel is selling the soul of my companion to me, the savior against evil, for gold...). I battled Diablo 1 on 1 from about 30% onward, having to return to town. My resists were high enough that the lightning breath did not severely damage me; the fire, my lowest resist, did the most damage unfortunately. However, I was victorious!

Hello there, nice jewel:



Here were my stats with the combat shrine:



Once I got to Shenk & Eldritch, I decided to run them for a bit. I got extremely lucky because there is almost always a rare or champion gremlin pack with Eldritch, and a combat shrine - or - experience shrine right near Shenk!!!

I found Sigon's Helmet, though I still like wearing the topaz'd helmet for the MF:

I got the Lidless you're now seeing off of Diablo (you can see the shield on ground in the kill shot --- he dropped that and bad rares). With the Lidless's mana leech, I do not have to slurp down mana potions anymore! However, this dropped, and when I use it, I gain 50% MF from Sigon's Boots, so I'm going to use it and slurp the mana pots!



Apparently the image didn't take... it only seems to actually screen capture one-out-of-three screen shots (playing on a Mac is weird!), but on, literally, the next run, I found Sigon's Gothic Plate!!!

I'm the belt away from the full Sigon's set!

That's it for now, will play more later. I hope to find that belt and have the full set --- that'd be very cool!

Many apologies --- on my computer the thread shows all of the images, but on my phone it shows only the more recent ones after Meph. I won't delete anymore images off Imgur going forward.

Pretty massive update coming right now!

I continued to run Eldritch & Shenk for a bit. I never found anything off Shenk, only off Eldritch. I found the Sigon's Gothic Plate off him, leaving me only needing the belt. Spoiler: I've never found it and have upgraded out of where the full set would do me good.

Here's me heading to avenge Anya!



My amulet:



Would have been nice for a Zealot:

Here is one of my MF rings:



Got the scroll:



Found this... ended up selling it because I needed the space, but now I slightly regret doing so:
