Yeah I have got really really lucky so far. Moving through nm into hell for barb seems like real lottery, not much you can reliably grind, need particular weapon bases and IAS/cbf.

I hope your run turns around for you mate, don't give up!

yeah i think this plus any good terrorised zones that come up. some IK gloves/boot/belt would be nice too, also angelics amu+ring for AR might be good.
considering maybe trying to farm mausoleum and crypt racks/chests in a1 hell for some elite bases for myself and merc too.


Terror Andy and Meph are insane. I do recomend it!

So now the grind begins before Hell ... running mixture of nightmare terror zones, trav, meph and lk ... need to upgrade to 1h weapon and increase dr% if possible, since i am super squishy. Some nice finds so far:



Rolled 39%, not bad. Prefer gores ofc. This might be useful for myself or merc later on:



Another bonesnap :D

Goblins .. might be quite useful actually to stack some cb later, especially if i switch weapon:



HUGE drop from terrorised boss in arreat plateau:



Not a great roll, but still really big for character ...

First elite oath base I've found, but really rather not go 2h in hell ...



Possible alternative?



Please be eth please be eth ...



Sweet! This will do perfectly for oath imo. I think if i grind out the runes and make oath in this it should set me up well for hell. But now I need to find pul/mal. I guess best option is to try my best to farm hell countess, but it is very dangerous for me with no shield on p8 even at my level (72), could definitely get 1 or 2 shot. mmm....

unbelievable I'm level 77 and found nothing nearly as good ^^
wt perfect oath base raven soe you got pretty lucky imo
I usually allow myself to run countess on p1 after the first kill because the rune drops are better p1
good luck on the rune grind

RNG is a cruel mistress, I wish you some of my luck mate. I didn't actually realise countess was better run at p1, but I opened the journey with p8 at all times, so I'm going to stick to my rule for now.

Good advice, I did fair bit of nm tzone and levelled up to 78 v quickly. I want to progress into hell now though.

I've now been trying some runs of hell countess, which is a bit sketchy but fine. On p8 I maybe have to quit out 1/10. I'm just pretty squishy. I've run a bunch already but just finding nothing, and it's gonna take me so long to bills oath I expect.

Therefore I have decided to try and run through to A3 so I can grind LK. I think most dangerous is certain packs of mobs, both Andy and Duriel I expect I can kill easily. I have a high level howl and now at 78 it seems I can fear all mobs, so the plan is to just stick on frw and howl my way through act 1 and 2.

Wish me luck ...
