hehe i been whispering this in his ear
only 4 levels away.
Thanks for all the nice words everyone! It feels really good to have made it the whole way. My only regret is that I traded w/ throwbarb for the Ist to complete CtA after hell baal. In retrospect I should have just ran countess more at the time. For that reason only I may decide to make another hdin (no time soon though) to take to 99. Not sure if I want to invest the time here, especially because that's a LONG four levels, even WITH an enigma... I've put a good dent towards 96, but nowhere even near halfway yet, and the exp penaty just gets more and more severe. Isn't there also a bug w/ hell baal exp on /players 8? Doesn't it only credit as if you were on /p6 or somethign? I'll need to look that up.
My immediate future involves P90X2. I started tonight, and the first dvd, X2 Core was disappointingly easy. After the first day of P90X, chest and back I was puking, the way a workout should be
Seriously, while I was playing the throwbarb & especially torch, I lost about 10 pounds due to not sleeping and eating regularly enough. My post times start at 9-10AM and end at 3AM many days... This game is seriously bad for my health.
But I will be playing with some more moderation. Right now I'm going to run summoner for a bit. If I find H keys fast enough I'll tackle UT again tonight. Before I close the book on this guy I do really want a pTorch, and maybe an eni too. That would feel so great. HRs DO drop (as I hope I've finally proven with video!), but they don't all the time, so it will be very rewarding if I can make it.
I'll continue to take video of my runs too, if only so I can capture the moments for myself. I will save the Highlords wrath gamble forever!
It would be so sweet to have my first Ber or higher rune drop on video too.
You all let me know if you want me to keep posting. I don't want to keep up the pace I've been for sure, but I'm willing to share when I make progress towards the enigma, or any major gear updates, like a perfect vmagi, those missing dracs (or razortail or atma scarab!!!!)
Once I find my pTorch then I'll finally allow one last twink. The only other item my barb found that I wish I had was a 2os 45 res ST (maybe SR, can't recall). UT was really easy after all, so really this would allow me to lose a few scs. I may also rush characters for extra socket quests. I mean really there is nothing left to do but work toward more perfect gear, recreating the ladder experience in SP.
