exciting, good luck.
do you have mana problems at the moment ?


MB and Cloak eat up a lot of mana, otherwise not really ?

Between rhyme/manald heal (if i can find one), 2 rows of mana is generally enough.





AR problems can be more prevalent in NM. By the time you hit a3 you're at like 49% chance to hit. :|

My 2 priorities are going to be:

1. 100+ ar gc (1-2 of them)

2. manald + blood ring such as ellie's old = http://i.imgur.com/TpkKo.jpg

i see i see, mana is usually what i go insane with in low stage of a wt.
that ring is pretty much sick tbh. try gambling some fools claw perhaps, even if it's magic, for early stage of game. at least u r sure you'll hit in case you use twin claws :b
anyway, i'll follow this, don't die and gL crafting the beauty again :D

Ignore target def spawns on pretty much anything imaginable, but it won't matter for a while.

As soon as I get to nm I can make Lore/Smoke/Rhyme/Black, and then meteor is a fantastic andy killer.




Irrelevant upgrade, but didn't want people to confuse them for gtoes. :p






I'm doing 33-41~ on bloodruns. Hoping for an Amn rune (always been a lucky place for me), and an exceptional polearm for strength.

I might do them all the way until 45, the exp is pretty insane.






Stash update for you fellow vanilla masochists. :)

Theoretically I can use it as a phoenix weapon for Nm andy... hmm.






Sweet, now I need a fire one.






And... 40! Took about 10 runs or so?

Sadly, no Amn, and only 1 white partizan.
Got a 7lr sc and a 10life/cold res sc, nothing else notable!

Sorry for the slow updates!

I can't afford to feel burned out when I hit NM, so I'm taking it very casually. I need to make Smoke, 2x Rhyme, Lore, Black, and then head right to Andariel for Vmagi, String, and Manald.

Probably going to need to mute at least one Lem rune at some point before leaving a3, as well.



Can't really zerg on a bos sin either, you take so much damage. :cry:

This escalated quickly.






#2 going down ever so slowly.

He keeps leaping out of meteor.






OH GOD PLEASE KILL HIM AZRAEL

Thank you based azrael...

Can't use shadow here, if they cast cloak of shadows, the game crashes and rolls back. aka cos bug.






Never remember these are fire immune until you spend 20 mins fighting them.






[insert beat fire with fire joke]

CoI is almost as fun as frozen arrow... almost.






I swear this wave never made it past internal testing.

Had to lure them out a couple at a time.






Level 1 shadow warrior tanked like a boss, and I was able to ping him with meteors.

Oh. A3 nightmare already?






His jimmies seem rustled.






Too bad meteor is overpowered as hell!

Crap drops, like 2h swords and axes and stuff.






Now the real game begins!

Off to countess to upgrade almost every item slot!

1/3 of the way to my 2nd Guardian. :)






Stats starting NM. Nearly base str for the entire game is the best. :wub:

Fire is always a problem with non cc trappers, but soon I'll have a Smoke. (i hope)






Picked up all my bases before leaving normal. Some are on switch.

Going to start crafting rings / a mesh belt ASAP... and make myself a fancy topaz hat.
