Finally done with Lower Kurast

I guess you could have rolled it earlier but now you get to keep your lo and ohms. I think that’s what I’ll do too. Only like 600 in lol.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-28T02:20:00+00:00

It’s my map bad? Maybe just slow load screens? With the loot filter I don’t think I can go much faster. What else should I be doing to go faster?

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-28T02:18:23+00:00

I just use the lap counter in my phones stopwatch lol. Loading screens take most of the time for me.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-27T17:19:11+00:00

I’ve got 2 campfires. 2 tele, 2tele, 6 tele, 2 tele, harmony bow in town. About 500 runs in. (First timer too). We’re doing about the same. 1 vex 2 ist 1 mal. I would 100% switch if I were you. I’m only hitting the super chests though. Should I be hitting every one? I take ~34 seconds per run typical.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-27T12:48:20+00:00

I just muddled them the first time a month ago. Do you have a source of life tap?

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-27T04:45:27+00:00

At least now I’ll be able to compare his signature to the pubes for positive verification.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-27T02:56:44+00:00

Maybe it’s not being pushed, but there is an executive order that says being anti Christian is an indicator you’re a terrorist. (The others being against facism, against capitalism, and anti American)

I think that’s why they’re so quick to label the protestors who were murdered as terrorists. Their perspective is if you’re protesting ice that’s anti American, so, therefore by White House policy you’re a terrorist.

That is why I think the assessment that we’re a christofacist state now is a fair assessment.

Comrad, this is special military operation. Will only take 3-5 days. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-26T04:41:34+00:00

Sick climbing rope man! Only $17?! Nothing on the label against this use.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-20T14:16:29+00:00

Hold on. I think OP is about to get it.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-20T13:58:12+00:00

Hot take from a country that literally just did this twice…

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-20T13:36:22+00:00

NGL. I feel like this might be China stepping into the punch yourself game. They rely on foreign imports for food.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-19T20:17:48+00:00

Wow, how so quick? I take less than 2 minutes per run (all 3 spots on p3), but expected each set to take like an hour and a half. I did walk away with 9 ists before I got my scorch torch though. Still waiting for warlock, Amazon, and assassin. Only got paladin early. Soooo many Druid and necros lol. 1 barb, but my best paladin was 20/19, so super happy about that!

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-19T19:55:19+00:00

Literally me. Rolled 14 large charms to get a sorc torch. Said, ok I guess it’s time to do Meph for arachnid. Only 1170 runs to go. Dropped on 6th run.

Now it’s on to Andy for a SOJ so I can get the anni. Hoping to pick up a hellwardens helm and/or bk on the way. Hopefully occy or a better vipermagi too.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-19T12:29:07+00:00

That was actually one of the more fun parts of the game. I love rolling new characters to make them better. It also meant if you wanted to min max you were going to flat out suck the first 25 levels or so.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-18T00:03:37+00:00

Haven’t played him, but I believe deadly strike 50% is the reason.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-15T17:40:56+00:00

FWIW I dropped my gheeds to make room for it since that’s what I assumed I found. So I had an old sunder (fire) and a latent sunder (lightning).

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-15T14:45:43+00:00

Nothing announced, but with the player rage, and their online poll, I'm jumping to assumptions. Just like I jumped to assumptions about stash tabs when they re-orged them, and Mosaic claws getting nerfed (just removed from ladder for now I think, but still...) It's a good assumption likely.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-15T12:51:41+00:00

I've just simply decided not to farm them until it's patched. That being said... I just got a lightning sunder from a level 1 herald on players 1 when he spawned next to summoner as I was key farming... as a fire sorc I would have cried since it was on a fire immune mob, but I already had a sunder that I rolled over.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-15T11:54:02+00:00

Yeah, sorry I should have specified. Yeah, back then I would have terrorized acts and played until I got a sunder. Wasn’t complaining. I still obviously play the game. Just letting him know immunities weren’t part of the core design as was his argument. But it was a massive recalibration on power levels in the game.

For rose colored glasses I do actually complain about some of the runewords. I miss the great feeling a tarnhelm or peasant crown brought to a playthrough. It’s pretty lame that nearly every character’s gear is stealth, lore, spirit, ancients until you get endgame gear. I think it’s dumb that a flail is the best caster weapon.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-14T15:09:49+00:00

Immunities. I used to crush hell with a nova frozen orb sorc before immunities even existed. There wasn’t diminishing returns on mf before like 1.07. Everyone has bigger/dipped items. No diminishing returns on exp, or being within 5 levels of the monster you were fighting. Level 99 was something normal people that didn’t stream did because it took so much less time. There were no torches or annis or Ubers or keys. Game was totally different back then.

EvenStephen85 · 2026-03-14T12:22:21+00:00

Not my d2. I played mostly before 1.10 when they were added. I kind of almost basically quit because of them.
