Tough guys, they just hit so incredibly hard, had to get past them and find a nice bottleneck to draw them into, then terror to take them on one by one and decrepify and poison dagger.



I got to the Lower Kurast waypoint and stopped here for now, progress is quite slow and takes a few hours in total just to get this far, so next time I hope I can get through the sewers quickly and have a cool fight with Travincal!

Your crowd control is impressive :)

Do you ever use bone prison once they are terror'd a good distance away? It should keep them trapped for a good amount of time.

Sometimes I use it when I have a nice bottleneck to activate mobs off screen and group them all where they can only line up 1 by 1, for example in the Ruined Temple which you'll see, the problem with it is the aggro it causes, sometimes it attracts monsters from 2 or 3 screen lengths away and if I have 1 or 2 monsters isolated I don't want to rock the boat and attract attention, so I usually just terror others away.

Baal will actually be very easy if I can get there, bosses are usually easy for necro's with their decrepify and clay golem, Diablo may be an issue with his fire attacks killing Durga, but bosses aren't the challenge.

:rofl: It's getting a little tougher the deeper I go, however, it should be achievable barring a nasty amp hit or something, i've killed monsters in act 1 that have comparable hp to monsters in act 4 and 5, but I do feel like i'm limping towards the finish line at the moment :D

Started off at the sewers, this place was slow to navigate, but also quite safe because it is all narrow paths where I could take monsters on 1 by 1. This guy took a while to get down though



You can't run from poison Icehawk :P

Got it



Making my way towards the Ruined Temple, this guy took Durga out once, lightning enchanted aka the merc slayer, I really need to sort his resists

Ruined Temple video

Quite scary, I was just waiting for the dam to break :D I had them all trapped quite nicely for the majority of the fight so it was fairly safe

Note; I was doing this on my laptop without my external mouse and keyboard and the track pad and keyboard are so old so they stick sometimes so at one point I couldn't switch back to my main weapon lol, I won't do that again after this, hell is to unforgiving

Travincal video

Wow, just such a ridiculous challenge, hydras were ripping Durga apart and the whole thing was just a mess, after clearing the main walk way other annoying monsters started to wonder over and those kinds of distractions make it so much tougher

If you watched the video you'll know how annoying this guy was, almost got him down and then other monsters came over, then he regenerated back to full hp lol, I came back at the end to finish him off though, I never leave a monster behind :D



Here we go...



Quite good luck, nice short walk and found it first direction

In case people had noticed and were pondering the difference in Durga's attacks, it's because of this



Not too difficult to get through again, I parked some Maulers by the waypoint and teleported past them, I'll use them later
