why dat bramble? :wacko: WHY??


i was thinking the same :)

anyway i think you should make pride, but most of all take a break.. Darajujju just died after farmathon, there's no need to throw away work because you might got bored of it for now :)
it will be fun again, and perhaps you should rethink your overall resistance or block? Right now it seems that you don't have block nor resist :s i was kinda shocked when i saw your videos.

Killing speed is gg though and perhaps it was also due to mf setup?

eh. when i wear my optimal gear I have 3600 life and 75/75/75/75 resists. ( I wear this unless I am mf'ing). I don't like playing max block because if I run into a conviction aura elemental character I have a higher chance to get melted with lower hp. I sitll reach around 200% MF with this gear on as well.

All going well, my full rejuv reaction speed is what I rely on and a big health pool( & 500ish bone armor) + DR% from shako & enigma. I am a bit nervous to make Pride though.. because Iron Golem is sketchy...

If it randomly dies somehow I will be very upset lol. I noticed in chaos sanctuary my golems die very fast once they get life tapped, so that's a concern with IG Pride.

i guess it would depend on build :) if he's a summoner i guess it's pretty high (also due to + from skillers and items) but when bone spirit (speedrunning) it is most likely not, since it would take a lot of skill points meaning less damage

If I was going to make pride my build would look something like this..

20 skeleton
20 skelly master
20 golem mastery
1 summon resist
1 mage
1 revive
1 clay golem
1 fire golem ( cuz the 5% damage per level would help my eth elite poleaxe golem do a ton of damage)
10+ corpse explode (depending).
probably a few into bone tree for bone armor supplement.
the rest into blood golem for % HP for iron golem. Probably maxed out.

In my most recent walk, Animus, the druid. I completed hell baal.

I decided it is reasonable to use my socket quests from Animus (for bane), since I defeated hell Baal now.

It would be different if I just walked a fresh toon to act 5 normal mode and used a socket quest for Bane. I thought it would only be right to use them once I defeated baal.

I also socketed my Homunculus for increasing the effectiveness of my max block builds in the future. Just a heads up in case anyone wonders.

I'm sorry, but I don't follow this logic. Single player is single player...

I understand, but it is my walkthrough. I don't intend on competing in anymore contests with Bane any way, so it is more or less for my enjoyment.

I don't really have anything else I WANT to accomplish on this walk besides level 99. That's not going to happen anytime soon though.

I also do not intend on playing my druid anymore, so I would rather have used the socket quests than just have them sitting there.

:thumbsup: you can still participate on the next farmathon or whatever, as far as you and your merc don`t use more than 3 items with sockets from socket quests at a time.
