Hi there,

I will try to make it to lvl 99 for the first time ever.

Almost level 98 now.

I was wondering, should I ignore white monsters and go for named bosses and champions only? Or kill everything?

Gonna check once i get there but I reckon the exp for level 96 mobs is gonna suck.

Thanks for your input.

High density TZ, kill everything (few stragglers won't hurt nothing) but they are level 96 (white monsters) so yes its worth it when you get TZ like tombs.

You're trying to have high kill rates with speed so only going for champs would hinder your results quite a bit.

Depends on your build. If you can kill a high % of everything with minimal tine then yes try to clear 90% but you are mostly hunting for elite packs. If you clear all the elite packs in the area (like the large tal tomb) then move on to the next one. Only bother with whites if they are in large packs. If you enter a room with just a few and no elites then skip it.

should one do tz alone in single game? hard to find full games atm.
or wait for the classics like cs, baal, tombs?

Join chaos, baal or cow games and clear TZ solo or with 1-2 others there. Otherwise it is better to wait for WSK, tombs or CS to do shared exp runs.

You’ll still get exp at p1 but IIRC it’s around 5.5x less

this is incorrect unless you play java or mosaic sin or maybe nova sorc

any char below A tier should just focus on unique packs, especially meh chars like barb, hammerdin

also the only champion packs that are worth killing are the ones with adds (such as fallens, shamans, scarabs)

those adds will give the same XP as the champions themselves so these packs often give a shit ton of xp
