Wave #3 was a little bit slower, they managed to kill my merc too.



Wave #4 back to being easy.



Wave #5 was beating up my merc so I had to spam Mind Blast, other than that it was easy.

Only landing every third kick or so, but the crushing blow still helps!



Destroyer



Here is the gear I finished Normal with.

Here is the merc loadout.



Stats starting Nightmare. I currently have 46% chance to block.



Skills. The plan is to keep on maxing out trap synergies until level 60 or so, then I will start pumping Dragon Talon so that it's ready for action by the time I finish Nightmare.

Character select screen, looking pretty stylish with my black armor



Jumping into Nightmare and I get rewarded with my first Amn right away!



Den cleared. Lightning Sentry is insanely good right now.

Weapon upgrade. Losing the fire resist from Crushflange hurts a little, but the faster attack speed is worth it.



Blood Raven still annoying. Why isn't my crushing blow killing her faster???



Oh right...my AR...

First Sol!



Lore I don't love the graphic though, I think on this character I would prefer a Great Helm or a Mask.



Put this on my merc, I really like the +max resist.

Treehead down for the second time today.



Saved Cain.



The reward was cute, I'll use it!

Countess quest kill. I'll come back here when I get some runeword bases.



Moved right on to the Smith.



Pretty nice belt upgrade, I will definitely use this soon!

Andy was not too bad. My kicks are still pretty useless but a tiny bit of crushing blow is better than none.



Moving right along to Raddy.



First 4os polearm! I will make an Insight soon, but my mana efficiency is pretty good so it's not a dire need.

Finally remembered to get a Holy Freeze merc welcome to the squad Waheed!



Grabbed the staff...



...and the amulet.



That is where my first session ended. Normally I wouldn't get this far in one sitting, but Lightning Sentry is just incredibly strong right now. The plan is to keep chugging along until I finish Nightmare, then farm NM WSK for a little while and eventually NM Meph. I will pump Dragon Talon and +strength so that around level 80 I can upgrade a pair of rare War Boots into Myrmidon Greaves and start kicking for real.
