1.07 Frenzy Barbarian

Will be playing hardcore and primarily on players 1 as no commands are available in 1.07. Can change this with tcp/ip (only on normal though I guess unless I rush some) if I feel the need.
Will absolutely be muling, as keen to try some crafting and I’m a disgusting hoarder!
Main goals are to defeat hell Baal, do a lot of rack-running and seeing what I can get from MFing as well, though it seems pretty shit for end-game items.

Bit of background as I’ve never posted here before. Been lurking for a long time in the PvM forum but never had the balls to post a WT in case it sucked.
I’ve basically lurked around for my entire time on D2jsp except for a few posts to trade some items over the years.

As for playing 1.07, I enjoy reading all the threads about older D2 patches, just seems to fascinate me. Loved Joey’s 1.00 walkthrough with his Necromancer, that stuff was really great.
The entirety of the 1.07 information for my walkthrough will be from googling things as I never played in 1.07 so excuse me if there are any errors or whatever, and huge thanks to all who contributed to those threads.
I did level a sorceress over the past year, playing very sparingly, and got her through to Hell Act 4(softcore though, died MANY times). Enjoyed her a lot but figured I’d switch it up and go for a Barbarian for a HC play-through.

Feel free to post advice or critique but don't be too mean! :-)

Lets get going.

First charm and a kinda useful one at that!

First unique drop! Didn't expect one so soon. Not as good as current Pelta but still nice

Outlevelled by Aliza -- way to make me feel inadequate!

Stones activated, and a nice welcoming party to Tristram!
Didn’t expect to have to town for potions during this, eight shamans firing their shit hurts! Aliza ate shit twice here.
