That's actually pretty nice Andy map for reruns with tele.
Just watch out of crowded Cata4. GL

Yeah it's real quick to get there, the fight itself is a pain the behind though! Merc dies a lot and there's a lot of gear-swapping between BO sticks, tele staff and MF gear.

I'm pushing through A3 jungle now, kill speed has got painfully slow again, don't know whether to slog up to LK or run Andy some. Turns out she's got some real handy drops (Gores, Arreat, Gulli, Highlords, Deathbit, Scalper are all under 1:1000 drop chance with Q bug)!

What you think to get in LK? not that much fot a thrower imo. Maybe find a way to grind some boss or superuniq for drops above?

Forti, res charms and upgrade materials (mainly Pul) Sorely need the ED from Forti and the res will be an upgrade too.

Until I get Reaper's for merc I'm kinda tied to using Atma's, and using any helmet without res on it feels very risky!

At least one stack of Warshrikes is my ultimate weapon goal but I don't think it's viable to farm for them before Pindle.

I'll have a play around and see what happens

Update time!

So I ran Andy a couple times and it was such a pain in the behind, I decided to push on and see how far I could progress before damage starts to drop off again.



Now that's nasty... I'm keeping my distance!


Wittled down his minions and kept them down with Find Item. He was a tanky bugger!

Not looking forward to this place. It's cramped, and everything in here has high physical resist


No shortage of stone skins of course


Tried a full clear but it was just too slow - leaped in for the staff and fled

Not gonna lie I ran, leapt and howled through most of the desert!


This place always gives me the collywobbles on hell... borrowed Haseen's Treachery for a Fade proc.


Shit that first bit was scary. They're ignoring my merc again! And my damage feels puny, again!

Legit got so close to RIP here. Leapt to the altar and got stunlocked by those two vipers charging. Then BO ran out... managed to TP out, rebuff and jump back in.


Well, I'm gonna pick them all from here, avoiding that Conviction and ele damage, of course...


Guess that's what I get for cheesing them

On to my next least favourite part!


This dude tried to run off to his skele homies but we nailed him before he got there!


I always start by going upwards first ... and it turned out to be right first time! CBA with all those ghosts, very risky but I tele'd with the staff!

Howled the ghosts away, killed a ghoul to use for Grim Ward, nailed the Summoner. Smooth!


How well this goes depends on whether Duriel has his "can't-see-merc" goggles on...


Great, he didn't! This was a piece of cake.
