I've got time to catch up with your necro! I love this class, so far very nice WT :) and also fast progression through Normal. I didn't know that with skellys you dont have to do the clay golem + IM tactic against duriel, and other act bosses.
Gl in Nightmare, following for sure!


Thank you for your post. The wt has been going so smooth so far, that i'm a bit surprised how well the summoner necro performs in P8. I've played the class a lot for the last 3 years (in HC and SC), but mostly on P1 and PX, never on P8 from start to finish, so i expected the progression to be much slower. I also get the feeling that some boss fights are actually harder for the summoner on P1, because you reach them with lower level skeletons. Diablo for example gave me so much trouble in normal difficulty on P1, while in this wt it wasn't that bad, even though he's still the most troublesome fight of the first difficulty. Of course i expect things to get if not harder at the very least, much slower in Hell. Nightmare doesn't bother me that much, as long as i get my Smoke, Spirit and Insight while in act 1.

Thank you, and good luck on your current wt!

I forgot... there's one more thing i wanted to do in normal difficulty. I'll do just one run...



Wasn't worth it



Let's gamble some gloves and other things... i should be able to get something better than these old ones that i gambled back in normal act 3

That's an improvement



But i get nothing else... i've tried a few circlets and rings with no luck



I don't like that cold resistance

Here's an idea



I can live with that for now, but when i get a Sol rune, i have to go for the Lore runeword, and then we'll see what i'm going to do with the other resistances. I did not waste that beautiful, stylish skull helm.. i have another for the Lore



She took some beating, i can feel things getting slightly slower now

I've cleared the Mausoleum and the Crypt in hope for a lucky Spirit or Insight base drop... No luck.





I'm stashing this for now, can't give up on my +1 all skills amulet

I think after i save Cain, i'll be done for today... I feel tired, i don't want to do the Tower in a sleepy state. I will have to do a lot of runs there and they'll all be on P8 except the final chamber with the Countess, of course.





Cain's reward - it's of no use to me

I'm happy with that map there's also a shrine on the way, so i'm hoping to get a gem shrine or two during the farm



Potential base for mercenary armor



First kill - I will only show the notable drops as i expect to do more than 50 runs, no need to spam and clutter the topic with every Ort, Thul or the lesser drops

Amn on run 4, i got another two in the runs to come, all of them from lootables, Countess drops were terrible



Useful charm on run 5

Let's have a shot at this



That hurt... and that gem wasn't upped from a shrine... i wasted 3 flawless ones for nothing!



New armor for the mercenary in run
