So close. had a real good battle w her.. had to town all the time to keep merc alive and get rid of that poison. she would basically 1 hit my bear and my oak sage would die when she did her poison thing where she spun and shot it in all directions
switched to MF gear for the kill. have 300% MF on the dot, it sucked because my res were -50's and -60s and that poison just raped me then. got a terrible drop from the efforts...
got a sol rune along the journey, made an insight. it does less dmg than the eth partizan honor but it will be nice for phys immunes so i dont have to town every 2 minutes to buy mana pots. This should also save me a lot of money as those pots add up at 900 a piece when you take about 25 of em to kill a pack of wraiths... Act2 should be a brutal struggle with all of the immunes...
]Thats it for today. the grind is a
long slow struggle, it helps when merc slows w kelpie, but then he doesnt deal any damage which sucks. I honestly didnt think that this WT would make it to hell difficulty even. I got really lucky with that ribcracker and tals mask dropping. It would be great to get a couple of decent runes to drop in order to make some runewords...treachery would be nice, and would also be nice to upgrade mercs gear.
Merc is still using rockfleece armor and a gemmed helm w 23 max dmg and 75 ar from jewels. come to think of it i will unsocket this and put in a couple of 14 max dmg jewels I have found alogn the way, at least his dmg will go up sligthly (new jewels in it give 34 max and 19-38 fire dmg, brought his dmg up a total of about 120)
My Kill speed has really slowed dramatically, I would LOVE to pop a Pul rune so that I can upgrade the ribcracker (I have 1X Lum already). sure would be nice to be able to rerun countess over and over.
Will start tomorrow with NM Cows as I forgot about them, then it will be on towards A2 Hell.. I'm not sure if I will be able to defeat Duriel or not. he hits so damn hard and that aura just sucks... That's being optimistic that I can even make it that far. I am thinking that If i do complete act 2 it will take me forever as there are so many physical immunes and I don't have a good way to kill them yet.... I hope something pops quickly with massive elemental dmgs....
Hope you all are enjoying so far.
