Hey all! Contributing to the community with my first HC P8 walk, hopefully we get some cool drops, make neat runewords and hit some goals!

Rules:
- P8 except for Countess reruns
- All quests must be done
- No shared stash (its empty but self stash page only)
- No save/exit to dodge death

Goals:
- Kill Hell Baal! This would be my very first HC finish if so
- Find/make dope endgame bow - WF/Faith
- Kill D Clone, would be my first also
- Hopefully learn from anyone who drops in with advice :)

Will old image links load after i hit minimum posts? Guess we find out!

Multi Shot time =D nice skill to spread poison quickly though super mana hungry. Poison kills quick though, currently rocking 1 chip emerald in a 3 soc hunter bow courtesy of Charsi Bae

Nice +5 max dmg Jewel - should this wait to go in a rare bow with a soc or not even worth using? Thanks in advance!

Saved Cain. Same bad drop from Griswald. Same bad ring from Akara. Not looking forward to all the SOJ's this old man will pocket through NighthawkHC's lifetime (for those in the know)

Will pick this back up 2mro evening, with some nice Pinot. Feel free to leave any advice or your love/hate for Physical Bowa's ^__^

New x 3 Tal bow - all the poison!

Can anyone let me know if the images will show once i hit minimum posts? Or do i just need to edit and relink them afterwards?

Not too much in way of drops so far, though tower gave me Cleglaws Shield and then Pelta Lunata...always on a bow run amirite?

Pizza break then back to it

This bow makes A1 a breeze. Sped run through to andariel

Blows my mind how many people didnt know about these hidden doors pre D2R...did they never naturally think there had to be a door?? :wallbash:

Andy Done - Theres a certain sense of satisfaction nailing Andariel with poison dmg

Thought i screencapped but got decent drops including Bloodfist! cheering, best unique that could have dropped

Images are not loading. You can always click ‘preview post’ and I think it’ll show you exactly what your post will look like (ie whether the images loaded)

I think there is a minimum post number before image links work? 15 i think. Will find out soon either way and will amend if need be, thanks for the comment though!
