Well that doesn't matter anymore... I am dead... as always.
Since any number of restarts is allowed (I didn't have anything to give away to the prize...) I will try one last time.
I will play A Werebear this time.

Found a Biggins Bonnet which has been very handy for the +15 life. Strongly debating wether to just bite the bullet and get a defiance merc with a view to upgarading to a HF merc (god forbid I get that far) in nightmare. I think as a long term plan it certain has it's benefits. What are others thinking about this? Are you guys even thinking about an act 2 merc?
I think I will actually. Thinking about it it's got to be the most sensible course of action.

Double bow action with the merc is doing pretty good so far on P8. I have only used 1 skill point (Critical Strike) as I am not sure where to place the rest. First bow wielding character! Got a nice Tal rune from the countess. I am relying on poison damage at the moment, shoot, poison, run, repeat!!

No problem, Dahkar. I was just questioning whether you were still alive......it would have been a shame if not. I have a lot of time on my hands, which explains why I made it so far, so quickly, and a little wait isn't going to kill me. It's worth it for the MP games: much more fun :thumbsup: .
In any case, I'm thinking about HF as well, because between my base vit and ravens, I don't have much going on for me in terms of tanking. Once I start furying exclusively, I will see how it goes, but the only merc I am thinking of is an a2 HF merc. You, on the other hand, should consider defiance because of duriel. A sorc with base vit, by my experiences with my (now dead) enchantress will find duriel very very hard without a tank. I got lucky enough to find a wand with weaken charges, and a lot of +life gear to allow me to static, but even then, I went through 3 full juvs, and came close to death many times. Chances are, nightmare is not going to be any easier, and the +life gear simply won't cut it for survival, and casters will need a tank. The 40 points to make up for the merc penalty won't be too much of a hindrance in the long run. If you can get to nm A1 instead of dying to duriel, you have probably already made up the difference, as well as having a much safer path through nightmare (and possibly hell). If I was hell-bent on winning this tourney instead of just having some fun, I would take a fishymancer and accept the penalties for a merc, golem, and skellies, and just trudge on and become guardian.
On a side note,I also found a biginn's bonnet (spelling?) off Blood Raven in both this tournament and the Survivor Tourney (that one was an ethreal one, though), which helped immensely (in both cases) with life and supplied a healthy defense and AR. Such an awesome item. I would trade the one I had this tournament, but it is on the rotting carcass of my enchantress, and Cattleya might have a thing or two to say about trading items from dead chars.

I'm 20 and just starting a2, I pumped Exploding arrow to 8-10 to speed things up. If ya wanna play/help through a2 just send me a message on msn ([email protected]) or post your ip, i'll check the thread off and on.
Hey, Dahkar! I added you to my MSN, but you're not on, so I just made a game, chances are by the time you read this it will still be up. 192.168.113.50 is the IP in case you want to drop by. I'll be inside, probably grabbing waypoints in a3 or doing something productive. I would be happy to help you through A2, as it would net me a tad exp, and maybe some gold to gamble with. Chances are we will meet later, so I'm gonna go make the game and stop spamming this thread up. If anyone else wants to join, I say "yay", and until Dakhar shows up to either boot you or hug you, come in whenever you want.
Anyone that is around the end of A1 or beginning of A2 wanna get together and MP? If so, please post, me and Dahkar would like to play, but I can't host because I'm already done A2, and Dahkar can't host either, so if anyone else can host and wants to play, post it up. Thanks in advance.

With a few + life, some rubys in my helmet and a few charms plus the werebear bonus to life, Oak sage lvl 1 and level 8 lycantropy My life is about 260 and my defense about the same.
I will be running Duriel when I feel its safe to get the angelic amulet/ring.
Stealth splintmail + steel battle axe is a good way to be a melee char it seems.
Here's the stats:
Bamse
Class: Druid (Werebear... probably gonna be a fireclaw bear in the mid levels if i find a good armor for stone)
Level: 20
Last Wp: sewers level 2
Last Quest: Radament
Max life: 83 (260ish fully buffed)
Tank penalty: 10 so far.
Points: 7
