But all because Diablo died that doesn't mean that I can progress quite yet.

I am unable to progress into Act V until I obtain a P Sapphire.

So I re-equipped my gear and began searching for Sapphires!

These will make great bases for "runewords" when I reach Nightmare. Plus look at that beautiful lifer charm :wub:

I ran Trav and then walked from Pandemonium all the way to River WP while popping everything and killing everything

Then the most amazing thing happened... :love:

I can now officially leave Act IV and move onto the 5th and final Act

Act V (Normal)

As soon as I enter Act V, I must go to Larzuk and buy one of his armor. This will be the only armor I can use throughout Act V; screenshot the armor while it is still in the store.
I must activate every single Evil Urn that I come across.
The item gifted from Anya for saving her must be immediately equipped. I can only use this item until Andariel (NM) is killed; screenshot the item equipped along with stat screen.
I cannot drop any potions on the ground during the fight against the Ancients.
Any unique dropped by Baal (including Q drop and any reruns) must be sold and never used.

Alright so here is my new armor. I lucked out w/ the 1os armor so that I can put a ruby in there for extra life. Every other armor Larzuk was selling were ED armors--not a single useful mod other than enhanced defense and this 1os. So I'm happy with this

Well that is all I have for now. I'll try and progress thru Act IV a bit and post an update prior to Christmas but we shall see. If I don't get back before then, I hope each and every one of you have an amazing holiday and end of the year!

Happy holiday!

Appreciate that! I hope you had a great holiday as well!

First of all, after re-reading the progress thus far, I would like to apologize for various misspellings as well as grammatical/punctuation errors. I usually post right before bed and sometimes rewrite stuff w/out proofreading. So my b. Anyway, I didn't get a chance to post an update prior to Christmas, but I certainly have been playing. So w/out further ado, let's continue with Act V!

Nice 3os! Could use for MF armor and/or future merc armor

So as part of the Class (Sorceress) Restrictions, I cannot put more than +100 hard points into Vitality. Also, there were additional restrictions included in Textbook's guideline:

I may not have more than 50% block.
I may not put more than 8 hard points into Enchant.
I may not put more than 6 hard points into Energy Shield.

But due to being a pure Hydra Sorc, wouldn't even have the opportunity/desire to put more than 1 hard point in Enchant and am completely restricted from putting any hard points in any elemental skill tree that isn't Fire. Having said all of that, I will be abiding by the <50% block restriction!

So here is me reaching my Vitality cap!
