Started playing with Tep's sorc (MysticSoul)...and arcane can slaughter tons and tons of things. Where other people were decided what we did and we got crunched a few times getting boots for both of us. Vagastorm built a bard, we got boots for him. Now we're level 2 and dangerous, to the graveyard. Ding ding. Old town north now that we both have direct damage spells. Crunched the crypt when we were both 6 or 7 wearing mundane stuff. It hurt, took a few tries. Yay, we have a high level mummy to take hits for us, to mirk. Ding ding ding.
We have spells, we nuke the avenger and head to crypt. Sneak past the scary stuff (we killed some anyway). Gustav's bodyguards have really good drops that are great for ages. Helms all around, armor for me (I wore that forever). I logged in later and messed with drow with 10sec86 and Lilith (ammy is really nice for a while). We kill Mad Hermit and go to drag realm, Panzar killed Kultach for us. That was Sunday night iirc, couldn't play much that day.
Little hazy on the teens. Tep and I did crypt. Lich King x 2 didn't get us shields or robes (I had the worst luck on drops). At least it was lots of cash and xp. Tep killed cel lord (he was 15ish, I was higher) a few times. I hightail it to cave to change alignment
Tep started a new char, so solo now. Obviously cler loves HoD, great xp for tons of levels, tons of cash. Hit sunken for equip (6 times killing highlord/minister for a better helm). Slunk to LP to kill imps for a few levels (any caster can do, easier for divine). Killed the not render/spider bosses. Carried Jotun's luggage to EC, got staff. Much running from things and saying omigod that hurts.
Ran through giants until I had belt/shield/cloak. Did EC run to graveyard twice, 40.
CynfearEvo sorc, will take a pali and a monk, pretty cookie cutter, didn't farm items for. Took silent spell, so 8 cold rays (17 cha start). Talk to flame, kill fire thing, have a staff. Killed a bandit while looking for shadow, have haste. Yah, I know, but essence gear can be done in 5 minutes and it's fine forever. To graveyard til 4. To giants (clear map is a level and a half for a while). To mirk, run and gun phantoms (melf's). Level 11 - to crypt but stopped there since you need to take a number these days.
Running some other characters. Started a from scratch monk, that's level 5 (killing shadow was annoying, tough to kite him since he's fast). Killed Urgrock, that took a while and came close to dying. We'll see how that goes, but see it getting a little annoying at certain points. My druid/bard isn't from scratch, and probably not a good dragon shape build to make now, but it's fun when all the pieces come together at 39 and can walk to EC alone in sunken gear
