Bought a merc for laughs. He did live almost 15 seconds which was fairly impressive

Bad luck here. Duriel always drops shit. And well, an all mace play through i guess this is the same as magics. lol
It took about 10 minutes of swinging at him and getting potions, I forgot to s/s it but i found clegaws gloves in the tomb going to duriel. Which helped out a lot tanking him.

This is my stats at the start of Act 3. Frenzy isnt that great, mainly been using double swing still

thanks man same =)
i guess it would seem they were pretty low. maybe if i explain
end game in classic you need neither angelics ammy/ring or sigons helm/combo for enough AR bonus to hit well in hell diff. without either is horrible.
goblin toes and r cage is kind of the same. in order to do nice damage you need crushing blow (obviously) but the only options are these 2 for end game classic.
bonesnap would also be nice, for the res and cb but it breaks very fast in hell and is just annoying. which will be the case with any weapon until i find a martel de fer.
since end game items otherwise are all rares in classic, i didnt want to get specific on rolls, well because the rng in this game is crazy and it could take a year to find a specific ornate etc. (ex. i did 4k+ hell chaos runs and did not find a soj this ladder)

Got the cube. Definitely a lot slower progress with the skeletons being revived.

Not much has happened thus far, still wearing almost all of the same gear since act 1

oh shit you know what, I didn't realize it was classic! My mistake! Makes a lot more sense haha

Ormus was no break. Good damage but slow progress.

Halfway through. pretty good killing rate. not much struggle since i broke down for slow attack speed war hammers.

Enjoying having a merc. this is the only act that a merc is viable at all. they do kill on their own.
can tank fairly well with bo/shout I am lvl 28 now, I need to find a mana leech ring/weapon soon for WW respect.

Leading them all out one at a time, definitely dont have enough fire res to tank multiple hydras

Meph wasnt bad at all. I shopped until i had pretty decent lightning and cold. Just low damage so it took awhile

Ding Ding Ding!! Respec time! I was debating waiting longer but my kill speed is so slow in act 4 im doing it now

I dont have any mana leech right now, but this is the best maul ive shopped so far. I am either going to shop until
i find a great maul with mana leach or go back and farm trav/meph until i find a ring/ammy with mana leach
Also ive done a good deal of shopping for fire and lite res items so i dont get ripped in cs.
I found some 25% mf gloves and a 10% mf ring, so starting from there mf wise. Just going to shop/farm until I can knock out normal. Then will either farm norm cs or nightmare andy for some gear i need, havent decided which yet

After shopping and respec this is my stats, i dont expect to restat again, unless i find a bunch of really nice +str gear late game, and the respec would just be for more life - i also added 2 lvls of dex for AR at the current time
i decided to go with a ML maul, and do another WW or two to kill, than to pump mana potions constantly

Progress is flying by now, everything is dying 10X quicker

I forgot to take off my mf, so the quest drops were horrible :/ overall clearing cs was pretty easy. no scares or mana/life problems. just my maul needs repaired 3 times per cs run atm ><

Decided before going to nm i would take advantage of the durance map, did 4 trav/meph/cs runs and found nothing better than what i was wearing
BUT i did however find sigons helm, so now i either need angelics ammy or sigons gloves/belt/boots/armor preferably sigons gloves because along with the AR bonus you get 10% LL as well, which is huge

My stats going into nightmare, since doing 4 runs and not finding anything i decided to continue since progression should be easy. def need a manald/mana leech and a higher dmg weapon soon.
