Good session last night...furry tanx were involved (yaaa!) but no new appearances (booo!)
I'll let our leader do the acual write-up but at the end of the session i managed to grab the Upper Kurast waypoint as it was near where we were and being the lowest of exp needed a little boost so i ran Andy 2 times; first time in the KTA game (which yielded only a flawed Ruby and Infernal Cap...weird drop...) and the second run was in a pub mule game with one other person in it...a rare composite bow with life leech dropped which i kept on my weapon switch incase anyone wants it although i'm sure there are better options...the rest was junky rares and magics :cry:
OK, onward and upward for the next session then! Still loads of fun...my arrows are coming out silly-speed now with BoS @ slvl 15!!

uhmm.. i suppose you mean me by "our leader"... aldough i dont take it like that. KTA is in my mind a very friendly group etc... with no real leadership required. all are equal i like to think.
then about yesterday... well.. uhmm... we finished act 2, and toasted duriel... who was at the receiving end of total arrow destruction. then we went into act 3, where we got into the city's... already having picked up 2 organs (aldough i did forget/miss then both,... i was in real bad shape yesterday however (ill))
we did find some mildly acceptable charms, and some of the rings we got from ormus actualy were good enough to use (for now).
i think thats all there is to be mentioned about yesterday, lets see who can be there next week (all i hope).
if people need catching up, and some help with it... i can help tonight with great ease. so pls poost here. (enchant really starts to help a bit, and that ennoying duration is getting a bit bigger now.)
cya around all!

Hi all,
I've just realised that I won't be able to make next week either, which is a bummer. Not only that, but the summer holidays are suddenly upon us and it looks as if I will be away until the end of July. I should be able to make 18th June, if nothing work related happens between now and then.
This wasn't the way I intended it to be. I'm really sorry about this, and will catch up as and when I can. On the other hand, holidays will most likely be a 'problem' for others, so maybe the summer will be generally sparse. Time will tell ...
stay safe

You predictions are correct; i will be in Poland on the Monday session of the 25th of June holiday-wise so apologies in advance for that one...as you said, the summer will be generally sparse due to people going away...it's a problem but hey, we will get around it...
Keep us posted dude and have fun where and when ya can!

well... with the 3 of us we did have some quality playing time... and since enchant is getting a bit over its beginners problems, we actualy got to kill some stuff as well.
we managed to finish act 3 AND 4, and the fight with diablo was 1 to be rememberd. we also did all 3 HF runs, bringing AMN, ORT and el (wich was mine of cource). best find of the evening was defenetly a SOL... how in *&$%$ could that even drop at our lvl... we cant even use it yet :shocked: but we WILL be able soon, so our insightstick should be soon to come.
anyhow, with vacation times comming up i think there will be some occasions that with just to little people around to play it wont go fast. lets just see how it goes, and see where we stand when all of that has passed.
for now, enjoy your summer, and dont forget to poost here every now and then.

So, last night's session was just me, zrk and Tikadea but we managed to kick some butt due to the Enchant buffing the damage and the Furry Tanx holding the mobs...even when hitting 24 and getting some useful Mind Blast (which got spammed at the wrong time by my Warrior so i had to deselect it a lot!) the only thing i'm doing is chucking out some fast arrows!! :tongue:
Good session though; we managed to get through Mephisto with relative ease and kicked Izual's butt in the same style although his gross hitpoint count made it take a bit longer!
Hephasto had a lovely Holy Shock aura to sting us with and he took a while to drop (the second and third time he went down very quickly which was odd...) but the Hellforge was kind (to me at least!) as i got an Amn rune and will be trying out an 'Edge' runeword as soon as i find a suitable bow!
Now, the dilemma we now faced was the lack of resistances we have from using bows against Diablo's raging elements...tbh it wasn't as bad as we thought! We only needed one trip back to town for mana pots from spamming our tanks on his head!
The Start
Avoiding the Lightning and Fire
And this last screenie is Big D on his last legs ...man we whooped him! Even my merc stayed alive throughout the battle but unfortunately dropped at the end!
Tika had to depart after Big D so me n zrk ran Meph for a bit with our KTA characters to see if we could get anything juicy and (i would link a screenie but i screamed an obscenity in it and can't edit it out at work! :grin: ) on the way down to him on the 3rd run a Raven Claw popped out!! Figured that will go to you Tika as originally planned...and there are some other items that might be of use (Treads of Cthon for one) that we managed to obtain from Mpeh's butt that i saved on a mule so next session i will bust them out!
Was a good day!
dk
EDIT: How could i forget the SOL that popped out of a OK near the left-hand seals...i couldn't believe my eyes! As Tika said...we were lvl 25ish and it's lvl 27 so that was lucky...
EDIT #2: Duly noted...thx for reading Masa! Missed ya yesterday...can help ya with catchup...just PM me!

Sorry for not being here yesterday, and not notifying you, not that I could forsee it but... yeah, sorry.
I wasn't inside during the whole day due to cleaning the garden, mum can be a pain lol. Then we went to some friends in the evening, didn't have time to be at the computer at all :undecided:
Nice to see you could get far without me though, I'll do my best to catch up, killing D solo will be a pain :laugh:
Note: that's izual, not duriel :wink3:

Do you folks have any openings?
What levels/builds are in the group? What about act progress?

Ok from what I gather:
You're 5 hours ahead of me, which means I can play no problem for the near future (long term it'd interfere with work).
Class composition:
***
Nec
Pally
Sorc
Druid
Everyone is a bow variant, and "cookie cutters" are frowned upon. So you're looking for a barb or a zon... I guess a barb would go with singing and have a bow equipped instead of caster weapons? Possibly leap? A zon sounds more friendly to bow-use; maybe a magic arrow amazon, for fun? Or would that be too conventional? Another pally would be an option, for more aura goodness.
Catch me up to speed and I'll start to catch someone up.

Oh; another question: Does a player have to stick with A1 Rogue mercs, or are other mercenaries acceptable?
