Let’s say I rush my own toon up to arcane sanctuary (not complete, but has staff made)

If a new player makes a game, I join, they do Andy, can we skip all the quests and go straight to arcane sanctuary/Duriel using the staff I have from a different game ?

Only of your own char eho got the staff creates the game. Then the other person can tag along

Interesting. I’m just thinking of ways to optimize rushing times. So it would appear I could have the person I’m rushing create the game, kill Andy, leave, my secondary toon with staff makes new game, both in act 2, it finished...wallah?

Imo it should work. Youll get duri quest when staff-char gets it,..

In this game. if a character complete a quest and it happens that you are in the same party as him well you will also complete the quest BUT you must be in the same act as him. town is fine :)

ya you can, it screws some shit up though, if you bug jehryn the one that didnt break the altar wont be able to take the tp to the palace (sometimes it clears when someone else grabs it but not often).
It cant be a red staff (tbh im not sure how it turns red but if it turns red its junk, maybe dont cube it until ready to insert? not sure).
breaking the altar lets you into arcane, not sure but i would guess the glitched char cant enter arcane until the altar is smashed.

e: none of this is useful for a rush since you cant have multiple non red staffs

If jehryn is bugged all you need to do is remake a game ^_^

I've seen that no one but the killer has to be in the room with duriel, just put staff in altar, go back to town, then enter tp up near the angel guy and click him. Really useful when u have a killer that teleports up to angel instead of a level 1 walking up there or when in HC mode and level 1 dont die by Hell Duriel with the Holy Freeze Aura ..

As I recall:

Quest item from Normal or Nightmare difficulty cannot* be used to complete the corresponding quest on a higher difficulty setting; the item text display turns red as is the case with this Scroll of Resistance.
Quest item from Nightmare or Hell difficulty can be used to complete the corresponding quest (if not completed) on a lower difficulty setting.

*) An exception is the Horadric Cube, which can be used regardless of where it was originally found.
