Is this better than Butcher runs?

I simply add butcher and warden to the end of the runs but I've noticed that warden and butcher drop ilvl 62+ VERY scarcely compared to elites, so its hard to say.

One of the reasons act1 is better now is because the market is young. There is still a strong market for items below iLVL63. It won't take much besides time to make act3/4 more viable for efficient farming.

I love doing this run, I have actually made a decent amount of gold off of Act I items too.

You don't check the treasure goblins with 5 stacks? and Halls of agony has a bunch of easy elites.  It doesn't make sense to end the game without maximizing your elite potential, because every new game you make has 5 wasted elite packs just to get your 5 stacks of NV.

I recommend starting on the warden quest, and doing all the elites including warden and butcher.  They both still will drop 2 rares and are very simply/fast to do still.

this is the reason why blizz is nerfing alll the good farm areas is because they want us to play the game as it should be and not just search for elite packs. soon, they will buff ALL elites in ALL acts, even though i disagree with them.


blizzard really doesnt care about us farming, in fact they love it, they only force us to farm a different way with patches so that we dont find a way to completly ruin the addiction of farming . its a
Psychological addiction that they keep feeding the fire to, why else do you think diablo 2 was around for a decade and still played.

Did anyone notice after the patch 1.0.3a, watch tower has been nerf?
before the patch i usually got around 2-5champ and rare mobs on this map, after the patch maximum 2, sometimes nothing (just the resp chest). i tried 10 runs
My luck bad or is it nerf? If so, bliz really suck!




ive been running act 1 and the watch tower rarely spawns to begin with.... seen it once in 15 or so runs. Small test sample obviously

great guide, tracked

as probably mentioned already, watch tower rarely spawns elites, but does have a resp chest and is a relatively small area. I usually at least find a goblin there, no elites though.

/e---------- I start with Festering Woods to get 2 or 3 quick stacks, I tend to skip running crypts since they take a bit longer (though they are ok, it gets annoying in tight corridors with arcane/waller/desecrator etc) but check for the elite @ cemetary, then leoric, watchtower, + 1 or 2 guaranteed elite packs right after the highlands crossing, run halls warden butcher, repeat

Haven't played extended hours, but have made 3 mil in the last 2 days selling random junk items I've found.

Anyone have luck with 0mf vs mf gear w/ stacks? I hear there's a bug with 0 mf... Also - anyone score legendaries in act 1 ? regardless of quality

Found the grandfather legendary like an hour ago in watchtower. In ten games I've gotten the same northern highlands map, is it a glitch? I can never find the watchtower anymore...
