The answer is pretty simple: pure chaos and pain

Did 4 hours last time with a group but some had to go afk and we had to wait for a couple to lvl up as well

Gonna go solo this time and abuse public games for trist/tombs and then make a bunch of nightmare cows in peoples act 3 nm games

Ya I’ll prob do p8 nm cows from 45-65ish. It’s like 4 or 5 full game clears but you get 3os helm 4os exceptional polearm, bunch of charms ammys ring, and if lucky some decent drops. Then just zoom thru hell in 30 min or less

It’s actually way easier to just do it in your own solo game as a blizz sorc than carry dead weight through a p8 game. If you run out of gold or something you could try a pub game but my goal is to get to nm cows as early as possible, level in there and then do a quick hell clear and start slamming meph
