Nice drops man, I wish I had your Shaftstop lol

My paladin has found 6 Sparking Mails :o , 3 Gtoes, 2 Titans and like 50 Manald heals :mad:

I've just been farming NM meph for the last few days, trying to find the best loot to start hell with


the shaft was definitely clutch for merc until I'm able to ebug a treach for him. I have a nagel problem like your manald problem; 90% of the rings I've foundf have been nagels and I haven't even gotten above a 25% yet.

Right now I'm grinding cows and nith trying to get a good base for lionheart; I've had a few mage plate 0 os drop but always 1-2 os; only have a 3os light plate I can use now but I'm trying to hold off for something better.

Hopefully a raven frost will drop for me at some point because once I get another source of Cbf I can switch to mosers and go to hell; I really don't want to give up this map seed until I've milked NM for all it's worth because once I get to hell I'm going to try the mad dash for LK until I get gul for rift. This build has been pretty fun so far but really looking forward to shooting some orbs

Ran a few cows; didn't pick up much other than these bases and some gems/dol-io runes. Sad about these rolls, my merc's insight is still a non-eth normal polearm



Decided to make this


Wow, running cows + nith on P4 right now and just got my first decent rune - heard it off screen and rushed over and :love:

Forgive my ignorance since I've never played a riftsin, but you mentioned needing another source of cbf, you could make rift's little sister and go with a Voice of Reason yes? And then you'd still be spitting out orbs all the time..?

I think it's the first time I would have preferred a lower rune drop haha; but since i've been playing b.net and SP it's been my highest rune drop yet so not complaining :)

I actually didn't even realize VoR had CBF that may very well be the best alternative if I can't get a ravenfrost ; I'll just have to farm 2x lem and 2x ko before I make it because if D2 is anything like IRL my luck will fail and I'll have a bunch of gul's before I get a second lem or ko :D

Stopped to try and run some LK in hopes to get a ko and lem before I went into hell, but spent 2 hours or so and didn't get much of anything.. only thing note worthy were these




I decided to move into hell at this point because I knew my traps would be enough to kill countess and as painful as the runs would be it made more sense - baal was killed right after I did ancients a couple days prior but I did save the quest kill SS

I knew hell was going to be awful, and I wasn't wrong. Got through den with lots of gold spent reviving merc and a lot of time spent running in circles:



From here I sprinted past Blood Raven and went right to Cain. I did forget to screenshot everything along the way because I was at work. I abused my teleport circlet pretty much the whole way there because anytime I got close to something I was melted. Since then I've been farming countess and I think I'm finally done so I'm going to post a list as opposed to pictures of all rune drops and run total in my next post but for now

This is the only item that's been found that I'm using is


And the highest countess rune drop after ~80 (haven't tallied up yet) runs

So it was definitely more than 80 or so runs haha; the total runs that I tracked were 161 - I'd guess there was about 180 total because I didn't s/s sometimes and that's how I tracked. My intentions when I started were to just farm my Lem + Ko for VoR and then to move on to Pits + Andy. The ko dropped probably 130 runs in. I hadn't found many fal at this point and didn't want to cube a crapload of runes together to get my lem. I decided the last 2 hours of work tonight I was just going to farm countess in-between calls and cube up to Lem regardless and ended up getting a bunch of Fal so it worked out

(sorry for caps my work system deals all in caps and was going through them at the end of the night)
The total for all the runs are:

161 P1 Runs - 1 Kill with 0 runes

EL 10
ELD 3
TIR 19
NEF 11
ETH 30
ITH 11
TAL 36
RAL 29
ORT 32
THUL 21
AMN 33
SOL 18
SHAEL 25
DOL 11
HEL 10
IO 10
LUM 5
KO 1
FAL 7
LEM 0
PUL 1

KEYS OF TERROR 14

ITEM DROPS:

THE OCULUS
TAL RASHA'S FINE-SPUN CLOTH
HWANIN'S BLESSING
GIMMERSHRED



First skiller from a trash mob:


My plan now is to make my lionheart & voice of reason and then get to the pits + Andy
