They should make a patch to make portal barb and turtle druid (or whatever the other dumbass fake build yall were going on about a few weeks back was) into a real thing.

imagine being this confidently incorrect in public lmao


Best case scenario for them: they’re right and look like a party pooping dweeb.

Worst case scenario: they’re wrong and look like a stupid party pooping dweeb

TZ is the way to go. You want lvl85+ monsters for all the GG uniques and runes

Cows for bases and runes

Either way fast and easy clearing with portal barb

Any high density tz like tomb or cow


tz cows is super nice, this is prob my fav so far

I've said it before the fastest route is to just set up the bportal at exit of kurast and then teleport the entirety of river and clear everything in spider/marsh/flayer/lower/bazaar/upper/trav, because once you have the billion+ aoe you don't need to spam any more portals, just teleport and trigger the enemy update to instakill them (dream merc recommended so you don't have to stop to leap or whatever). That's the densest area of the game and because its all connected you don't have to repeat cast portals. Granted its a lengthy setup and if you go TOO big you'll crash the game


hm this isn't how it works

bases and rune drops are nice for tz cows, but it gets a little boring so I'm trying to mix it up with new areas

trav is amazing cause you pop them all at once. cows is good. tombs is good but can be annoying since lots of doors.
