Armor upgrade for 3 Sol armor. Gave my old one to my merc.



Blood gloves attempt #10:



Nope!

So sexy 180-220% possible ED so not a bad roll by any means.



Damage per swing is slightly lower than my hammer, but my attack speed is faster, and the static field proc should help quite a bit.



Trying to socket that shield I found.

Nope!



I'm now high enough level to get 20% IAS on sharkskin gloves so I will be crafting those from now on. Blood gloves attempt #11:



Close but no cigar.

I want a 4 socket armor I can fill up with perfect topazes for my upcoming MF runs, but ideally it won't be in a heavy base, so I tossed this.



Goblin Toes. I really need the AR and FRW from Sander's right now, but these are super tempting. I will hold on to them for now.



Helm upgrade for merc--finally got rid of that blood helm I crafted back in Normal

Buriza from Baal. I always thought this thing had really cool stats, but I've never seriously played a Bowazon so I have no idea if it's actually good.



Eth embossed plate. Tempting, but I will save my runes/gems for something that can get higher defense.



Found this nice rare amulet! 17 dex, resist all, minimum damage, and damage reduction? Sign me up!!!

Block chance with new amulet.



I realized I skipped Nihlathak while I was finishing Nightmare, so I went back through Anya's portal to finish him off. On the way, I found this nice small charm! First 7% MF sc, I will keep it in stash for now.



Nihlathak himself was no problem.

Shopped this awesome crown from Larzuk! I would prefer an artisan's grand crown of the whale, but I'm not greedy



Filled with Sols. I hope this doesn't end up being my end-game helm, but for a super poor man's choice it's not bad at all.



First sacred targe drop in NM WSK!

Hoping for 2 sockets so I can make a new Rhyme, but I eventually want to make a Sanctuary so 3 sockets works too.



3 sockets it is. Hopefully I find a better base by the time I have the runes for Sanctuary, but I will hold this on switch just in case.



I've been checking for a teleport staff, finally found one that didn't cost a billion gold.

I've also been periodically rerolling my map looking for a good NM Meph map. Finally rolled this beauty!!! This is a keeper for sure.



Killed Meph because why not, got 2 set rings!



Double Cathan's

Still looking for bases in NM WSK, found this absolute gem!



Please!!!
