I reran Raka/Trist once. First set item dropped!

Quote (JRyan1 @ Feb 15 2018 08:31pm)
- Guess my first normal set item: Cleglaw's Shield
- Guess my first exceptional set item: Sander Boots
- Guess my first elite set item: Tal Rasha's Horadric Crest

- Guess my first normal unique item: Hotspur
- Guess my first exceptional unique item: Venom Grip
- Guess my first elite unique item: Djinn Slayer

- Guess the area where I die ( :rolleyes: ): Hell Trav

Good luck mate! I'll be following for sure.


We have a first winner :thumbsup: 20 fg sent.









Next, I did a good amount of countess reruns. My goal was to get runes for Stealth (Tal + Eth), Leaf (Tir + Ral) and a TirTir Helm (Tir + Tir :bonk: )

After my 2nd run, Stealth was already finished ^_^

During my runs, I reached lvl 17 and could equip that beauty. That frw was relieving :thumbsup:





The Tir runes took a while to get, but eventually I got them. 2 more levels needed to equip Leaf





Inventory after my last countess run. As you can see, it took a few runs :wallbash:

This helm (together with the +2 mana after each kill from leaf that I equipped later and a ring with +1 mana after each kill) was my low level insight ^_^ With these three items I got 7 mana after every single killed mob, which was like an instant refill.

And only seconds later, I found this one :rofl:





First normal quality unique! Sadly no one guessed it :cry:





Even eth :bonk: Would be a nice temporary weapon if I was fury.

Andy action shot. Since she is vulnerable to fire, it was a short and easy fight





Crap drops

Who needs chance guards when you can shop at Fara B) Bought them of course.




By the way, I also switched Kyoko with Emilio (Def aura).

That's it for now! More updates later.

Side note: First set and unique item of normal quality have dropped. But please give me more guesses for the first exceptional and elite set and unique item :thumbsup:

YESSS! Finally, I've been waiting for either a Shaman or Hunter to follow religiously :thumbsup:

GL and I hope you find a really sick rare pelt! :drool:

e/ I saw that you were a little unsure about skill point distribution, and I can tell you that if you are only going to max one of the summon skills, definitely make it Grizzly. I also saw that you were leaning towards Oak Sage as your spirit, but I would suggest HoW because there are a lot of FI monsters in Hell, and on P8 your Volcano won't be spectacular. Your Grizzly doesn't need the extra life from Oak because you can just recast him any time, and you + merc can go without the extra life as long as you are good with your Grizzly placement and especially if you get some decent FRW to kite things with fissure.
