By the time I hit act 4, I'm going to do the exact same thing with a ptopaz bow so I can go back and forth depending on what I am facing.

I figure if I can just get myself setup enough to do NM CS runs, I'll be happy to stay there for the 6 months or so that it will take to prepare myself for Hell (assuming I don't die long before then). I just need to figure out what I can do to make NM CS runs bearable for 6 months I don't want to do boss runs on this char, it would make me commit suicide IRL before I found anything. I'm going to settle in hard for a 2 day nerd session coming up and likely have around 20 or more hours onto the character by Thursday. Looking forward to it

u and the dang chrono cross/trigger references

I have less chrono threads than you have yogurtland threads!

First unique




New ammy. I think this put me around 48 FR with 68 LR

Cubed up to this for topaz


Fire res is pretty good now!

Second unique


The 50%~ Mf I was using was OP!

By the way, when you repeatedly hit one of those Maggot spawners into their FHR animation, it looks like they are dancing.


Easiest Fangskin ever!

I wanted to gamble some upgrades before Arcane/Tombs/Duriel. Nice upgrade on boots, too bad I lose 25% MF :/


From 12 FPA to 11 FPA


Belt upgrade. Fire res is now better than LR.

Arcane took a while. Found it on the 3rd path.


I wondered if I'd like this, what with the ML and Decoy coming up next level. Ultimately preferred my ruby bow +mana pot chugging.


Yep, I did him like that. Off screen estimated shooting eventually took him down without ever seeing him.

Going to use this as well as a magical +56 AR ring I found against Duriel rather than my resistance rings.


I hit 24 in Arcane. These are my stats going into Duriel. Decoy will be a huge help, and I took 22+ minutes worth of Thawing Potions and Stamina potions.


I hired a merc to take first hit to give me time to set up a Decoy and a TP.
