Killing Mephisto was no sturggle. Crappy loot though.



Quest #6 completed.



Mission #3 COMPLETED

Clearing through the areas got me 4 levels which I can now put to use in Act 4.

Mission #4

Act 4

You may not complete the Hell's Forge quest. However, you are required to obtain the hammer. Screenshot the hammer + your stats.
You must kill Izual with less than 200 total armor. Please screenshot just prior to the fight, and once he is dead. Show your stat screen for both.
When attempting the Chaos Sanctuary, you may not stack any resistances. Take a screenshot as Diablo is dying with your stats screen open.
You may not move onto act 5 until you have a Perfect Sapphire.

Note:

I'm looking for a 3os helmet to put 3 x Tir runes in to resolve mana issues when I start using LF.

Had to remove my helmet to meet requirements for less than 200 defence.



Izual down. +2 skills :thumbsup:



Got the hammer. Looking for a gem shrine to get that Perfect Sapphire.

No resistances in Chaos Sanctuary (technically 60% is allowed but that is not hardcore, right? B) )



Dodging his lightning fire by running around is all it took. And some nice drops for once!



Much needed IAS. Yes please!



Still need a perfect sapphire before I'm allowed to move on to act 5.

Took me about 20 minutes before I finally found a gem shrine.



Mission #4 COMPLETED

My health bar dropped below 10% twice when fighting Diablo - was a little too close to dying (remember resistances people!).

Mission #5

Act 5

Upon entering act 5, go to Larzuk and buy one of his armors. This is your new armor for the rest of act 5. Please screenshot the armor while it's still in the store.
You must open every Evil Urn you see. Screenshots are not needed.
When Anya gives you an item, you must use it until after you have defeated nightmare Andariel. Screenshot the item and with your stats screen open.
You may not stack more than 50 potions when attempting the Ancients quest. No screenshot is required, honor system applies.
If Baal drops a unique, you must sell it to the shop and not use it.

Note:

I did not have enough gold to buy an armor at Larzuk. Instead I will keep the first armor I find and then wear that one throughout act 5.

nice progress, normal D can be a pain even with res and javazon.
whats your plan for ancients? Think you can take them down fast enough w/o 50 mana pots?
you probably can with CS

I don't think I've ever stacked 50 on top of 40 on a regular walk

I am reading it as I can use a total of 50 potions, including the ones in the belt.

that challenge was so much fun and one of the first things that comes to mind when i participated was my 5th unique item on sorc was bardiche... was goofy as hell running around all a2 with that thing xD
was considering replaying the challenge a few months ago as well. glad someone else had the same idea :) GL!

for future ref, use 3 tal bow in norm. much better than that 7-23 dmg ;)
altho i guess it doesn't matter much if you're using the java skills

@ norm anc, java you will need like 5 mana pots. no need to stack. even other classes that do less dmg don't need to stack pots. you'll plow through them so no need to worry about it
