Haha nah, no strategy behind it other than thinking I needed res fast 🤷‍♂️




Haha thanks, yeah I’ll really surprised how tough meph is. I’ll have to make sure I don’t play while tired until I get some better gear :p. I’m still not really sure what I’ll be able to do for res in mf setup. Even if I found a skullders I couldn’t use it. I might just need to continue Lk until I have a godly charm setup or maybe dual Um in ik helm


I always liked LK for charm upgrade. Runes are sometimes just bonus. Get charms in LK 1st, then farm Meph imho. You can easy get 2x um and put it in IK helm as temp. When u r in Hell LK, who gives a s*** about 2x um runes, put skully and then farm Mephy. If res bothers u...

For sure, one of the things that keeps me going when the runes dry up in LK runs (as they always do) is keeping an eye out for sexy charm upgrades, as well as hoarding craft materials and burning multiple crafts at once to see what comes out.

Sometimes it's the little things in life :lol:

Haha well under that line of thinking we should all just make plugy blizz sorcs and hammerdins because they are the strongest. I just make whichever builds I think will be fun to play/collect/look at rather than what is going to own the hardest. You don’t make a summon druid or nova/hydra sorc either if you’re trying to dominate :P


Virtual fist-bump for this one brudda, all my +1 :D

Haha you're right. I was too pumped to start Meph runs and started before I had enough res charms. I go down to 500-750 life frequently in Meph runs and that's at high-alertness levels haha... If I was tired I could rip. Making the Gloom was pretty dumb lol. Should have used that um/pul towards making res MF gear. I think what I'll do now is continue LK runs for charms and 2x Um. If all goes well then I can run Meph with just those charms and 30 res IK. Then when I can find a Skullder's I'll Um that too. I'm just super lucky that I rolled a GG LK map in the same game as my Meph map so I have the option to bounce back and forth like this. Might end up throwing out the IK belt I found just to make room because they are so common and LK runs are tough on stash space.

Clearly I am lost atm so I'm just going to log in and see where the day takes me!

Had a pretty solid few hours in LK today! And I will do a few more hours this evening. Here's the results from this morning's run.

Decided to go back for more charm upgrades and possibly some Um runes for some res in IK helm. Cleaned up as much space as I could, but this is all I could really get for now :/ ... (empty cube)


Gotta love when all your misc loot is GCs :drool:


Not bad for Trav! Tossed it though.
