HYPE updates start on page 26!




Little by little we toss the crap away and get the stash back in working order.








I think I am...

Countess! <3






UPGRADE HYPE!!






Just need my 33+ spirit monarch and we're pretty much done with my end-game build.

I may try rolling safety boots, but they will need to have at least 20+ fire res. :|

This gives me 156 str, dex to wear the CTA flail, 20 vit, 50 life on top of that, a little mana which is badly needed, and decent resists.

Seriously my favorite runeword.






Resists took a dump without Spirit, so we toss the dwarf star, put on Moser's, and voila.






And like a berserk barb, with such low defense, we're going to be easily block locked. Even at only 9% block, better safe than sorry!

This should hopefully help.

It's a shame bishibosh isn't a high enough TC to drop monarchs.

Cold plains has a lot of monster density.






You can't teleport 10 feet without another champ pack. :cry:






I was told the cathedral could drop white monarchs. En route.

Managed to blindly tele to the wp without meeting pitspawn fouldog or any black fana rogues.






I'm not sure champ dogs are any better, though. :unsure:






First Cathedral run was a success.

A few chests, a champ pack, some trash monsters, and the boss. I hope I wasn't given bad information!

These runs are pretty safe for my low damage.

Champ shamans can be kind of a problem. I have to static and telestomp them, and they come in 3s.






The ghosts are problematic as well. If they get some nasty rolls I can't keep the merc up.






Thankfully, that's about the difficulty level of this place. Even with fana dogs, bone ash is a free kill.

Let's keep our fingers crossed for that MONARCH HYPE. ^_^

Thanks to Shadowfaxe I figured out my best chances.

Bosses in both Cathedral and Crypt have ~1:300 chance to drop a white monarch.

Ghosts in cathedral are 1:8000, everything in crypt is 1:1600, but they are all leech immune and lightning immune. :cry:
Not a chance, LOL.

I'm skipping anything I don't need to kill (except giant fallen packs cuz xp) and doing Cathedral boss runs.




This would actually be the highest treachery I've had to date. :lol:






I needed room for that shell.

"I'll just reroll the insight since I'm not sure if I need it..."






It fits now. :unsure:

Attempted to kill blood raven on my way to crypt test run.

Thought maybe I could kite her outside and orb her against walls.

Double orb explosions bounce off the shrubbery wall thing. Bad screenshot timing. :(






Managed to get positioning on her to static.






She hits really freakin hard... this is why I have never attempted her.

Accidentally lagged my hotkeys and tele'd right into the middle of the pack. :Cry:

Protip: always run 86 fhr.






I literally do zero damage to her. Merc does nothing. Lightning can't damage her liferep.






Crypt is just never going to happen without Lawbringer, either.

The damage is extremely low. This is a boss killer missing half of it's synergy damage, not a cow killer.

Been some time since I've collected life charms.






Been some time since I've seen a fcr ring, as well. -_-
