Does anyone think they could take down an oryx far enough for a 0/8 to get the last hit? I'm serious... I am tempted to try getting a hero into the alltime legends list but after looking at them I realize you almost HAVE to get the oryx kill to have a shot at it. If someone could do this how much would it cost?

Why a 0/8? Just curious.

The character is purely for game farming. To be in the top 10 all time fame heros you need over 200k after bonuses are applied. This would require the following bonuses:

Thirsty
Mundane
Friend of the the cubes
Explorer
Cartographer
Enemy of the gods
Slayer of the gods
Accurate
Sharpshooter
Sniper
Tunnel rat
Oryx kill
Team player
Leader of men
Doer of deeds
First born
16%+ well equipped

I realize I COULD drink the pots from either the ground or a vault but it seems like a huge waste of potions if the whole purpose of the hero is to kill him.

By my calculations if I get all of those bonuses with a base game of 40k I'd earn 255k game which would put me right near the top of the all-time legends list.

Drink the potions from the ground or directly from your vaults. It will make your life 100x easier. 0/8's are way too easy to kill. Good luck keeping that thing alive while getting all those bonuses. At least max def and spd. Those are really vital to your survival. I would honestly max everything but mana/wis. It's a waste if you are going mundane. I like to make 7/8 graves when I die so I do usually end up maxing wis, since it's so easy to come by.

You can also drink hp and mp potions from your 6/6 and it won't break thirsty. Drinking anything in your inventory or backpack however, will. Avoid tincs too, those also count as potions. I didn't realize it til after.

i thought that was just for health/mana potions? like that heal you.
for thirsty bonus.

If I do this the character would be 100% game trained... It would have next to no risk of death what so ever. I've learned that any character I actually play ruins it's accuracy/god kill bonuses to the point they can't be regained... My necro needs 50k god kills and over 1.5M shots to regain those bonuses (clearly never going to happen)



All potions are counted. I've ruined game characters before by accidentally drinking stat pots

Edit: no tea leaves unless something has changed the mana/health pots in your 6/6 ALSO ruin the bonus.

Not true at all. I assume you are planning on using the fame train to get your fame? If so I would highly suggest maxing stats. People do drag on those trains. I've seen loads of 6/8+ graves, especially when drybowser went through a phase of dragging god walls on the train with his prot priest. Shit happens when you aren't paying attention. The maxed stats do help a shit ton for your survival, so even if you do take a bit of damage you will still be ok.

And accuracy is super easy. Use tutorial and hit the towesr that shoot the green balls.

Don't ever think the 6/6 has broken thristy since it was implemented. It's been ok to use your 6/6's last time I played, which was a few days ago. Pretty sure grums also do not count even if you drink them in your inventory. Stay away from speedy sprouts though. Pretty sure those fuck up thirsty as well.

Oh no I know how to farm accuracy it's not that... It's the fact that on a necro with max dex + exa dex ring you shoot ~8k shots per minute... Do the math that's over 24hrs of shooting a tower. Even with anti idle hacks to allow you to farm constantly, who wants to have your character farming accuracy for more than a day? Besides that doesn't help with the 50k god kills id need to farm LOL

I'll test the pots in the 6/6 when I get home... That's easy, make character, drink starting hp pot, log out and check muledump

As for maxing... If I was going to max him it would literally be spd and def only. This isn't going to be something I spend 15+ life on just to suicide it for a red glow.

I am so confused here. Are you trying to get on the legends with your necro? I wasn't talking about that at all. I thought you were talking about the 0/8 you wanted to get into the legends...

I give up. Just trying to help you out here.

Oh you edited.

Pretty sure the 6/6 has been the same since it was implemented a while back. I could be wrong though.
I highly suggest you throw some potions into him. It will be worth it for your survival in the long run. Nothing is worse than having to start a fame farm char over. I know that first hand. Been trying to do a legit fame farm hunty for a bit for that monthly glow and that 50k divine pet yard. Just pew pewing godlands in my home server. It's pretty boring and I kick myself when I die to dumb shit like lag.

Yeah I'll see the rate if fame gain before I decide whether he needs pots or not. I'll be using EUwest2 the entire way. If it looks like this goal will take more than a month I'll probably invest some pots into him. 40k base fame is a pretty lofty goal lol. I can't remember the last time I lost a game character before I decided to suicide though. I have nexus bound to my mouse so I can nexus pretty readily and do so at the smallest sign of trouble normally. Honestly the character will only be killing things until he has the leader of men bonus completed. Then I'll make sure the god kill bonuses are intact. Then I'll just unequip the weapon till he reaches the suicide point.

And yeah I just referred to my necro for comparison sake. If my necro only gets 8k shots per minute it would take massive amounts of time to fix accuracy of an unpotted hero
