I hit lvl 18 in the tower and will move on (faster...) from now on.
I hope I do not port myself into death though cuz it is still hardcore. My first hardcore char by the way.

THis is all I played yesterday and I am working and studying so maybe it will be a really slow walkthrough but I hope it is interesting for you to see where this is going.
I have decided to go fire through norm until 30 then add frostorb into the mix, making this an FB / FO sorc.
Since using unqiues, sets, runewords is not allowed (I forgot about sets in the description!) I won't be able to hit the 105 fcr bp and will have to settle for 65, which is fine for me.

Hope the German language does not annoy you as I think you are experienced enough to know every item in the game and if I translate my rare and crafts stats, we are fine and you are having a lesson in German

See you later!

now I've set my eyes on the cube as my stash is exploding and I want to upgrade my gemmed armor and shit.
On my way I will do a couple of Andy reruns as she drops me rares en mass.

First of all, some progressing..

I'll keep that!

@res, regenerate mana and mana each kill will certainly help spamming skills and not die to beetles
