Rip bro, nice walk

Yep. Definitely my fault just like the previous 3 runs, but all for different reasons.

Assassin: starved, spent 30 mins here not being able to kill much

Paladin: bad day, bad choices, did everything right except tp out in the back of the room and tried to back track and got caught.

Amazon: Left Valk out, she pulled top left mobs on top of me. I actually had fangskin decoy/IA locked and nearly killed the entire pack that way. I really wanted to just brute force it and avoid shopping a fear/tele wand. There were vipers in the middle, and quite a few unravelers nearby but I probably would've survived it. I actually think that If I had kept decoy/IA going and not ran out to my tp the first time.. I probably kill that pack and stair out and rejuv/ia spam my way back in. Oh well.

In my 4 runs that have reached floor 2, only the first made it out alive. I suspect that's the beauty of howl on Barb. It's really great for isolating a pack leader, in addition to taunt pulling other valuable targets safely (unravelers). I've rewatched my VOD deaths of this floor repeatedly, and its always easier to see in hindsight. When in the actual moment and decision making/timing is limited it really sucks. It's one of the smallest floors in the game and quite unforgiving with what's usually down there. I'll get better, but god has this last month been tilting

The build alone is not easy on a single pass, mixing + skills on a bowa gear is quite hard without luck, anyone doing the same exact run would struggle a lot in act 2, especially since you cant s/e.

dammit

For the love of god please shop a tele staff next time. Get in and GET OUT

Edit: nvm I see you said you would clear the whole map? Can still tele onto the chest and kill them from there. Valk, merc, and decoy should be able to block the walk way

In hindsight yes, tele staff would've been "safer" but there was still a lot of dmg inside the center to contend with: several snakes + the cursed/LE from fangskin that would proc off my merc's holy freeze + the unraveler unholy bolts outside. A terror charge wand would've worked as well... Brute forcing it like I did would've worked too but several key mistakes were made and that's just how it goes :/

Rip

This WT has inspired me, I will avenge you

Please do post

I'm going to post it soon but don't expect too fast progress for the moment
