I thought about this but decided against it, but ofc if we get a full team who wants to do this then I will gladly be happy to(Makes it more fun), the only reason I decided against this was so people may be interested in joining more.

ImO the stat/skill-respec allows faster Ladder-Rush + Levelling later...

Take the Sorc for example... in Norm / in general at the beginning Sorcs have a hard time dealing Damage and not running out of Mana... but at the same time they have a Summon Nec as blocker... also NOBODY wanted to be conviction-bitch for them usually...

Now what you could do:

Push Energy = Mana, +skill Warmth = gg to start, let Summons block for you + pump Nec's LR / Decrep / Amp
Skill Enchant = gg Dmg and fast runs for Summons
Skill one Dmg-Dealer from the lower Levels or whatever...

THEN, respec, go with Frozen Orb (basically a FO Sorc kills Nightmare ALONE) + have another two Sorcs with different Elements play along you while having High-Lvl-Conviction up all the time from a Pally (who WILL do the favor, since he knows he can respec to Hammer once you arrive in Hell Mode etc...)

It does not necessarily make the gamplay easier in specific areas, but it DOES make it easier to put a proper party together and not have "wasted" chars (Curse Nec, Pure Convictionist, Mone-elemental Sorcs, etc.) after the first phase of rush is done...


After line one, it stopped constituting as fast...

I'm in.
I don't mind being a conv/heal din, so I'll do that, unless someone else really wants to.

Alright is anyone interested in walking from normal to hell in the PTR (Patch Test Realm) for fun?
  1. You can use any items you currently have and can be any level that you want
  2. We will be doing every single quest
  3. There will be 1 of each character and an extra of any type(since there are only 7 classes)
  4. You basically must have no life(So we can have fun and take it slow to knock it out together)
  5. Basically same as above, you must have ample time on you hands to commit
  6. No raging & flaming at eachother, we are only looking for GM people.
  7. Since we will be walking there will be no teleport.
  8. This will be in Softcore
  9. There will be small breaks don't worry :)
  10. If a class specific items drop only let that class get it, be nice to your team mates and help them out :D

These are the rules set for now until I think of any more that need to be implemented.

Players, Jsp, Account, Character name
Amazon - Empty
Assassin - Scaryghoul - *Scaryghoul - CabbageWarrior
Necromancer - Empty
Barbarian - Empty
Sorceress - Empty
Druid - Empty
Paladin - drt1245 - ? - ?
Extra character - Empty

Before any of you rage about this being the wrong forum, there is no correct forum to place this in so I decided to place it here.
This may be the last time where we all start fresh and all realms are dumped into one!

Just take the last two lines of the post and you will be fine...

Also, why does "fast" end after line 1 IyO ?

It's all about having to play a char for the benefit of the party (which usually nobody liked to do, since he could pretty much simply delete the char after Hell BRs were set up)... and STILL having the chance to respec it later to create a sufficient MFer/PvPer/BRer/CSer without having to go through the game again...

The Sorc was just an example, but not a bad one ImO.... done all Ladder Resets so far and usually our parties ended up in the first 100 spots of the ladder until we lost interest/started doing other things...

ImO having an Enchantress for a Summoner + being able to convert her to a pure ES-Telebitch for BRs later etc. while having the perfect support chars to push Dmg and thus speed up killing helps a LOT...

Not to mention that now "good" players, who understand the concept of alvls, mlvlvs and EXP penalties etc. will benefit even more...

ImO you can now go through the WHOLE game, including doing ALL quests AND possibly BaalRunning (especially in NM) more often before advancing and still keep up with the kiddies that think it is only important to rush through the game and then find theirselves completely crushed when they realize that safe NM-Tele-Baals + fast Hell-Walkthrough after PROPER levelling is MUCH better than trying to BR in Hell when nobody really has enough firepower...
