Yeah that new runeword is pretty OP! Lawbringer could be sweet... you can run some areas with undead minions like ancient tunnels, mausoleum and crypt relatively safely. Pindle even? Though that charge is scary even with sanctuary aura!
You could further specialize with stuff like up'd undead crown (5LL and 50% dmg to undead) and run with gravepalm or ghoulhide

I just got done with a couple hours of chaos runs on a wind druid.

I was using A5 Merc with lawbringer (not on PTR)

I believe the CC from sanctuary would help you immensely with specific farming, like chaos. Having ghosts and knights consistently cc'd turns them into target practice for Chad.

I don't think it would be better than the might Merc overall, but if you wanted to farm hell chaos for a few days I think it would be extremely helpful.



Haha yeah i definitely need to get more damage before i consider farming 85 areas/chaos!

Going to run some countess now as i found another deathbit and would like a pul to upgrade them!

Rune goal - Um (Duress), Pul (Upgrade), Hel (unbendering will) Lem (Lawbringer)

Was farming p8 devilkins on the way to countess for the GG XP and horked these wish they were gores :(

Found a Ko which doesnt really help unless i want to start upping as i have 3

Found a Hel so i went and made the unbendering and im testing out how his damage and survivability/CC is and i can say i really like it, once i have guill for him it will definitely trump an act2 merc for safety and damage. Still running Andy i feel its smoother having him tank most of it!

haha wouldnt that be nice


More stuff that i cant use :(

Crafted some jewelry, theyre okay, i like the dual leech ring but need some res!

Found this bad boy!!! Do i socket it and turn it into unbendering will and make a A5 merc! He would be more tanky but id lose the crushing blow from hone but his base damage would be way higher! If only guil would drop right now

I made a wt before d2r with a Frenzy, managed to find Soj as my first unique ring, vipermagi on my 10 first meph nm iirc, and death fathom. So... I know :)


For lawbringer Merc, as I proceed to go throught LK, cleaning baal's way in nighmtare was good to find legend sword 3 sock

Hes still out there! I've just gone back to uni so playing time is down, I'll have a crack on in the next few days!

Thanks for the update! I'm glad his story will continue!

No rush, I look forward to watching your progress regardless of the timeline!

great playthrough, been following. I've found a sick weapon during my own hardcore p8 playthrough (been taking screenshot, might do a thread at some point). I wish I could give to you, might end up doing a throw barb of my own (never did one before).

Played for a couple hours just farming Andy (50 or so runs) and this was all i could get. I think ill probably take an extended hiatus from chad whilst im @ Uni. Too busy along with shitty rng makes it painful wanting to play him. Might pick him back up come semester break.
