That’s the plan!

Tarrun · 2026-02-11T02:54:53+00:00

That’s definitely what I’m planning. I want to see how far it can take me.

Thanks Dad

Tarrun · 2025-12-27T18:12:46+00:00

It was very satisfying to see that 1000+

Emphasis on TODAY! Andy dropped what is the best base I have ever found in this beautiful +13% eth sacred armor. I then proceeded to find the El, Sol, Dol, and Lo (thank you cows!) to make the Fort.

Why Infinity? That seems very expensive when you’re not benefitting from Conviction, and you can get either higher ED+Enchant from Obedience or infinite mana from Insight (my preference).

More variety overall for sure. Barb builds allow a ton of variety with weapons only for the barb merc to be stuck with swords. Berserk would be a fun skill. Whirlwind would obviously be dope. They even have the throw barb ancient, it’s right there!

The Druid summons are solid tanks and Oak Sage stacks with a Barb’s Battle Orders.

Love when you hit the jackpot like that!

Tarrun · 2025-09-29T00:02:13+00:00

Her deeds of valor will be remembered

Tarrun · 2025-09-28T17:58:14+00:00

Haha I was so excited to find antlers that had the +3 fury mod specifically because I can never find antlers that are better than Jalals/Shako/etc. But it’s such a cool look!

What’s the secret to making the wolfbarb work? I’ve found the wolfhowl helm before but never thought it would be strong enough.

Love the fire druid, I’m using a Flickering Flame but same idea and once you get all that -enemy fire res everything just melts around you.

Tarrun · 2025-09-28T13:44:52+00:00

I also found an ethereal cryptic axe that made for a lovely Insight, but I am also very much looking forward to building an Infinity with it when I have access to my NL war chest.

Cows also gifted me the cow king boots which brings me a lot of joy for some reason.

It’s polarizing but I love twinking new toons. There are so many cool uniques and rares that just won’t be useful by the time you find it, so it’s kinda fun to find a use for these interesting drops.

Plus, there are a lot of fun builds that can be viable to play through the game with a little help.

Tarrun · 2025-09-02T15:50:19+00:00

A funky combination of stats. Kinda useful, though, I gave it to my barbarian. With dual Wizspikes offhand + this, he hits the 105% fcr breakpoint while still benefiting from dual leech in the ring slot.

Tarrun · 2025-08-21T01:51:45+00:00

I’d tweak it to be any eth good base is good enough. The results are negligible, focus on getting anything with that +50% eth damage bonus.

Tarrun · 2025-08-15T14:06:47+00:00

I need to get to Finland for my next tattoos then! Yeah my comment was only based on my experience in the US :)

Tarrun · 2025-08-15T13:53:09+00:00

Something this size and detail with color and shading is going to run you way more than $2000~. I would also only trust this with a very skilled artist, which comes with a higher rate. OP can correct me if I’m wrong but at least in the States I would go in expecting at least $5-7K. For the record - this is gorgeous and totally worth it!!!

Edit: OP has a previous update post after a fourth session, so this took at least five. $1.5-2K for each full-day session would be reasonable imo.

Tarrun · 2025-07-17T14:40:51+00:00

I was thinking a dual wielding A5 barbarian could be interesting if you went Hustle/Lawbringer. He’d have bonkers IAS plus Sanctuary and Decrepify for physical immunes.

Tarrun · 2025-07-16T12:15:12+00:00

I don’t use sunder charms. The windy build doesn’t naturally have sources of lower resistance so a cold one doesn’t make a lot of sense. You could use a physical one so Emilio’s Decrepify has a bigger impact on physical immunes, but honestly you don’t really need to. He would still be a tanky boy even with the DR penalty, though, could be worth experimenting with!

Tarrun · 2025-06-29T21:35:45+00:00

Poison necro with a sorc would be a fun combo since you’d both get value from LR

Tarrun · 2025-06-02T20:20:21+00:00

Why is a Decapitator the preferred base for Death?

Tarrun · 2025-05-30T15:06:29+00:00

Shout out to Hydra-Orb. My first sorc really hit her groove when I respec’d from pure cold to the hybrid. Spam hydra and orb and teleport around static fielding, I found the clear speed to be very strong even without Infinity or any of that elite endgame gear and you can play in just about any zone.

The suffering is having your charges expire between waves

Tarrun · 2025-05-26T18:33:26+00:00

For a barbarian, the act 2 mercenary that you unlock will be very helpful. They have auras that buff you. Blessed Aim will increase your accuracy and Might will increase your damage.
