Approaching the man. Was easy to clear room. Ofc he had to be cursed & extra strong, so 1 hit would amp me and put me into insta-death from him, so I had to kite him a bit. Merc did a pretty good job with it.



Found this awesome jewel... best jewel I've found in this run-through hands-down:



Thought I'd try my hands at the Pit... killed a few things, was very slow. Decided to push that off until I'm stronger:

Sorry that my pictures are all scattered... I play for a couple weeks, then I end up uploading 60+ images. The way they come off the Mac, they're not in order either... so I have 60 images to try to sort through to create some coherent story.

Here's Smith's body:



Don't know if I posted this or not, but I did find the Pul off the Countess:



Ended up upgrading my weapon:

I can't find the Andy pics, but I ran through the first time after a countess run and forgot that I hadn't set it at players 8. I was concentrating pretty hard on bugging Andy. Once I realize that I made that mistake, I went back and killed her on p8 the very next run. That took for damn ever, mainly because I definitely did not want to die, and there were like 4 unique (not the champions, but the 1 named guy & pack of minions) packs to go through, too.

Anyways, here are some of the shots of drops off Andy.

Vendored:



Was 20 resists... lol. Vendored:



Found an Ik piece, at long last. I'd like to find the helmet.

Another 23% Nagel...



Kind of cool:



Always liked this bow:

Look cool for level 30, though I think +java skills are needed for level 30 lld java:



Thought I hit gold for a second... sigh:



These are the highlights... I'm level 82 now. I've ran P3 Andy in Hell for 3 levels, and that's all the crap I've found. Lots of normal level uniques, a few exceptional. It has been depressing.

But....

Today I found something $$.

Which you could probably guess because I only ever seem to update this once I find something game-changing.

A BER RUNE!

I about fell of my chair. Dropped off a named spider as his item drop (dropped the potions & the rune only) on my way to Cata level 3. I wasn't aware that runes this high could even drop in Act 1. I was thinking I'd have to make it to Act 3 for even a shot!

I don't know what to make. I am an Um away from Beast, and an Um Ist away from Chains of Honor.

I'm thinking of running the shit out of Countess for an Um rune, and then making a Beast. I'm not sure what base to make it in... Should I go Zerker axe and then try and find a good shield (wish I had that damn Moser's that I vendored like a month ago)? Should I make it in a 2-handed weapon? Not sure which base.... I'll have to do some runs in the Pits or something for a GG base.

Finding the Ber has led me to running the Countess on p1 for an Um rune... I'm about 40-50 runs in, highest rune I've seen is a Shael. Each run takes about 5 minutes.... I've actually leveled halfway from 82 to 83 just doing this because I kill most named and champ packs. Ahhh, kind of boring :X
