Well well well helLo there






You know what this means boys, hopefully I saved a pretty base a few days ago :





This is a pretty massive improvement for Jemali (my merc), almost doubling his DPS, cleartime, and overall sustainability :)

It opens the gates for me to start Chaos running, maybe even considering doing Ancients pretty soon.


This HR drop occurred after a couple of days of nothing, I ran 20+ Eld/Shenk/Pindle, then Arcane sanctuary (dropped my 3 keys), I ran Nilhatak but it was pretty aweful (not a demon, light immune...) so I'll keep it for later.


I reverted to speedfarming through Tamoe / Pits / Stony fields / Travincal, and dropped :





Cute jewel for my future Eth Andy's Face :unsure:
Getting close to HOTO...


--------------------------------

Runes drops : couple of IO's, FAL, PUL, GUL and LO :love:

Gear upgrades :
- Switch my gloves to Trang Oul, and rotated a couple of items to reach +125% FC breakpoint, +75@ res, enough strenght to wear my gear, but lost ~20%MF, total, standing at +73% MF atm...

Grail Items :
- Chromatic Ire - Cedar Staff
- Humongous - Giant Axe

- Trang Oul Claws - Heavy Bracers
- Spineripper - Poignard
- The Salamander - Battle staff

- Cleglaw's tooth - Long Sword
- Executioner Justice - Glorious Axe
- Cathan Mesh - Chain Mail
- Headstriker - Battlesword
- Vidala's Snare - Amulet
- Dark Adherent - Dusk Shroud

Hello everyone, a small update,


I tried running Chaos sanctuary, but it's still a bit dangerous, Jamali dies systematically on Lord de Seis pack, and a run takes me ~20/25 min which is not really worth my while.


A couple of failed SOJs and a nice %ED sword :





I went back to speedfarming / clearing Tristram - Countess - Tamoe & Pits, the Rune Gods of the Pits were generous :





When eventually ...






The Roll Gods were not super generous :(

Thanks to the +31@ res from HOTO, I shifted a bit my gear and inventory around to increase my %MF to reach +134%, I noticed a significant change in quality of drops, a lot more unic / rares are popping up now.



--------------------------------

Runes drops : couple of KO, MAL, a UM and a VEX :love:

Gear upgrades :
- I'm running Chance guards and double nagelrings (I don't care about +125% FC threshold as of now), HOTO

Grail Items :
- Kira's Guardian - Tiara
- Griswold Heart - Ornate Plate
- Cathan seal - Ring
- Tancred skull - Bone Helm

- Crushflange - Mace
- The Gnasher - Handaxe

- Hwanin's Blessing - Belt
- Berserker Haubert - Splint Mail
- Hwanin's Refuge - Tigulated mail

- Snakecord - Light belt
- Riphook - Razorbow

- Cleglaw claw - Small shield
- Hellclap - Short bow
- Chance guards - chain gloves
- Peasant crown - War hat
- Kuko Shakaku - Cedar Bow

- Natalya's mark - Scissors suwayyah

OK SO....





Lvl 93
1650 life
75% block
77% light res

never thought this kind of elite group would be able to pass through, I was really surprised, they just grouped around me in a 0.1sec flash and I guess managed to get through my block, got instantly depoped, not even time to drink a full rejuv or anything...

After 250+ hours I'll have a little pause from this game, see you in my future adventures !
