Here are the game notes as promised.

I completed normal at level 51, but I might go back and try to pick up a few more levels before I start nightmare.

There is a shot of my attributes at level 51 below. My skills stand as such:

Oak Sage - 10
Arctic Blast - 1
Cyclone Armor - 10
Twister - 3 (This was an accident, it should be 1 and Cyclone Armor should be 12.)
Tornado - 20
Hurricane - 10

When I was climbing as a fire druid, my break down looked something like this:

Oak Sage - 5
Arctic Blast - 1
Cyclone Armor - <5
Firestorm - 10
Molten Boulder - 1
Inferno - Everything Else (You gain more damage to Firestorm from synergies by adding to Inferno than you do from adding to Firestorm. Firestorm + Inferno worked really well together if you can get past the casting delays. If there wasn't such a long delay, I'd have tried it the whole game.)

Here are the attributes. With Sage, my life is over 1300 right now.



And here is my godly, godly gear. Make sure to read the ISO note.

Very nice, coming along just fine. Goodluck in nightmare man. nice idea going firewindy!

It was the only way I could think of speeding up the early levels. There was no way I was going to try to grind to 18/24, and Arctic Blast is by far the worst skill of any class.

Yeah on my windy i started as fire, but switched to windy at about 30. Was the best idea i think

Goodluck on NM though! im moving way slow cause killing speed sucks on early bowa.

I'm somewhere in the middle of that column of flame. I'm going to kill Rad so I can get my skill book. After that, I'm going to run Andy/Countess for a few runs.

I'll post more updates in a day or so. I'm currently grinding through NM A2. When I get the Canyon WP, I'm going to mf Sanctuary and Tombs for runes and equipment. I'll post good finds.

EDIT: Also, I'm going to do some Sebhehe-inspired P1 Countess runs.

I was so close to leveling that my level popped on my first P1 Countess run. It felt a little like cheating. Also, P1 is pretty boring now. All the monsters die, including the Countess, almost instantly after the hurricane hits them.

It was cool she double dropped. Except, I already have a stash of these to use.

First two attempts at trying to craft a new ammy. Too bad I'm not a Javazon or a Hammerdin.

Finally found a decent 2OS shield so I could make Rhyme and beat Duriel easily. I'll post upgrades on my gear later today.

I should point out that after this week, I will not be updating nearly as frequently. I had a few days off so I wanted to grind up as far as I could.

As promised, massive gear upgrades.
