So we all know how they now made Act 3 "unskippable" by having to find the items on each difficulty. Well guess what, you still don't have to. I'm taking all the credit for this one so better quote me everywhere

Now in the old days we'd only have to kill travincal, and then you'd have a tp waiting at Mephisto and you were good to go. Now, you can't enter the tp if you don't actually do the quest first.
But there is a workaround. It's not as fast as it used to be, but it sure beats teleporting throughout Act 3 every time.
This workaround requires two different games.
1st game the person rushing creates the game and goes to Travincal with the quest obviously already completed. He opens a town portal in travincal and the person being rushed goes down the stairs. Now the person being rushed still can't go in a town portal in Durance of Hate. But he can walk to Durance level 2 and collect the waypoint (the rusher can obviously clear the way/find the next level/find waypoint fast.
Once you collect the waypoint the person being rushed creates new game and uses the waypoint directly to Durance level 2. After that he walks to durance level 3 behind the rusher and when Mephisto dies you can enter the Portal to Act 4.
I'm open to donations
