Hi All!

I've never played hardcore single player or done a wt before but you all make it look so fun! I've been inspired by my wife to make an assassin based on the blade fury skill, since she's always throwing stuff at me . This is a new build to me but I have a better understanding after reading through this post https://www.diabloii.net/forums/threads/blade-fury-analysis.732539/. This will be a standard HC P8 wt with ladder runewords enabled, nothing else.

The main goals are to beat hell Baal and have fun! Here we go!





Corpsie down, den clear

Lis 1, Bloodraven 0


Breakin' some bones in the Crypt


Get my mf on asap

Hoping for a perfect topaz but at least I can use this to roll a savage polearm


First unique, using


Treehead trolling the WP, used blade sentinels to chop him down

First time wt on a first time hc with p8, and goes fury sin. Good luck.

Got the scroll and a cute bow for merc


Gris, tried to take a shot when he was cursed and I wasn't, he's dead


Bald man is free and Akara shows her appreciation :mellow:, FYI not using

Did I mention I love CoS?


Close enough to do some runs, no shrines on the way though


Countess run 1 in the books, will keep running for stealth before progressing, 3 rals in a flail might be a decent wep too

Some finds while running the tower, axe will help dealing with unravelers in act2

Finally found that tal rune , burst of speed + stealth = good


Time to start chuckin' some stars!


Boneash reduced to a puddle

Downed Andy, merc didn't make it


Drops, meh


I know AR is an issue with blade fury so I'm going with a blessed aim merc, I gambled this for him

Decided to do a few Andy runs in hopes of finding pieces to Cleglaws set or Hsarus belt / boots

Run 3, bingo


Run 6, only need the sword now


Did few more runs but no hsarus, this is the only other item possibly worth noting. On to Act2, my favorite!
