Been awhile since the last update. Still playing the barb--progress just very slow. I've done a couple hundred Meph runs since last update.

Thought this was cool for level 30:



Found this puppy on my way to Meph (out of a chest):



Another cool low-level Necro shield, not 30 tho:

Perfect... vendored:



Found this in chest on my way to Meph... vendored:



Used the Lem to upgrade my armor. Treachery really doesn't do much for me if I am slaughtered in Hell by zombies. The DR of shaftstop too valuable.

I found both of these today within 1-2 runs of each other... not off Meph though! I switched to running Eldritch / Shenk again, on p7, looking for a 2-socket shield base for Rhyme. My thinking is that I could wear the Rhyme for 2nd wave of Baal so I can clear it much quicker, so then I can run Baal for better drops & more XP.

So... wow. Either of these would have been nice off Andy or something earlier. Now I don't know what to do.

Should I try to hunt for a Pul rune and upgrade the Butcher's Pupil, and then re-spec into Axes?

Or should I up the Headstriker?

Or should I just keep running for minor upgrades and then try to push through Hell to find some Elite unique weapons?

Just my 2 cents, you vendor a lot of good items that would be good replacements. Like greyform over eth rock fleece or rattle cage! I understand you are low on stash space. Keep up the progress anyhow:)

Yeah, you're right. A lot of it falls on me: I haven't played Diablo 2 in maybe six years before this. I just didn't remember what it was like - the gear bottlenecks, having to run bosses a bajillion times before Hell, etc. I didn't know what to expect as I probably would have if I had recently played.

I did give my merc the rock fleece I was wearing when I found Shaftstop, and he now has leech from Tal helmet. Hopefully I can find another shaftstop for him.

Keep at the grind, you don't want to go to hell under geared.
Dat eth rattlecage on merc would have made meph runs a lot faster but oh well.

Thank you! I will keep the grind going. Update incoming!

Shenk finally dropped something.. what can it be?



Yay! Something good!



With the Ravenfrost, I don't have to bother trying to find a base for a Rhyme. I can move to running Baal for better drops & experience.
