Just got home from work and had a little spare time before going to university (7:30am) so I decided to pick up the Frigid Highlands WP in NM. This character was rushed til Act V NM, so I just lvled in Normal for a while before moving on. All went fine and breezy until the mid part of the Bloody Foothills (right before Dac Farren). My Holy Freeze Merc engaged a pack of about 8 Spear Cats (who had already managed to hit me shortly before, and those javelins hurt), as I took shelter behind the destroyed wagon, waiting for him to freeze the whole pack, or at least most of it. He was taking heavy damage, and I hurried out of my hiding spot to cast a few Orbs to lend my poor hireling a hand. All of a sudden they decided that I looked like a more appealing target, and almost all of them targeted me. 6-8 javelins hit me at once, popping DEEDS almost instantly. Had absolutely no time to react, not even drinking a purple.

Well...rebuilding in progress, Avenging_Bruna is currently clvl 8 ;) just regret about the 4 perfect gems and some very nice low lvl set pieces (Sigon's, Hsaru's, Isenhart, Sander's) in my lost stash...

First attempt at base vit bowie, absolutly loved it altough good bows are impossible to find until late NM/Hell. Was running around with -25 LR if not lower and got 1 or 2 shotted by gloams. I learned my lesson, or did I?

Same build! Managed to snag a ravenfrost from Duriel, found a Hone Sudan from Durance level 2, had managed to make an insight Partizan... Stars were aligned to make her a great character.

I stalled for some levels to get some NM Meph runs down in hopes of getting a rare or exceptionnal unique bow. Died to stygian dolls in a doorway...! Could've/Should've heard them but I had removed headset to watch some videos on Youtube. STUPID! :banghead:

That's 3 chars lost in 3 weeks. Will try it one last time I think, then perhaps I'll be forced to remake her in SC(?). Character inventory is looking more and more like a graveyard.

Cause of demise: Picked up Diablo again and decided to try HC. My first hammerdin ever either in SC or HC. I was trying out my new MF setup and got too cocky. I was at maybe 5 or 600 health out of 1000 with hammers flying everywhere. Drank a health pot instead of a full rejuv and then FE exploded. Oops.

Cause of demise: Over-confidence. Was farming Andy, everything was fine & easy. Countered a pack of vampires with unique boss. No big deal - easy dudes, don't even have to check the mods of the boss! Wrong! I'm starting ww-ing... what's that green aura under my feet?... AAAAAGH! NOOO! Tens of fireball were flying in my direction, my huge life bulb dropped to zero in the middle of the ww. Well, at least i killed the boss with me.

Took some of my chars for a spin this weekend after having ignored them for a couple months. At the time 1.13 was announced a time with lots of exams came up for me, so I decided to give all my stuff to a couple friends and in various freeby games and wait it out. Just left my high lvls alive with their base gear on.

Had been doing some Meph/Andy runs with my charmless Tal's set Orbster and noticed a streak of baalruns going on in Gauss, so decided to join to hopefully get some levels in and raise the vitality on her, since her legit CtA had been given away as well as all her life charms. Not that I was having any real trouble yet, but well, ya know...

Runs were going blindingly fast and so were the dolls that popped beside me :badteeth:

1.13 here I come...

A guy came into my game, a lvl 56 sorc which I invited... I didn't expect him to be anything out of the ordinary... so I went down to kill Shenk... where he followed, and in a few seconds killed me with a fireball.

Though it must be added; karma has made it up for it :)
And anyways - when I imagine a pker, it's just too sad to get angry about.

Cause of demise: Reached level 33 by finishing ancients, then I decided to make my own baalrun server. At some point a lvl 80+ necromancer came in, and I told him to leave, and he did. Then probably some of his lvl 41 amazon friend came to server, and TPPK'd me. He said it was because I was too "paranoid" about the necromander, and wanted to get a revenge. I complimented him for killing me and left.

Character build: Summoner / CE
Game difficulty: Hell
Act: 1
Corpse looted: No
Death type: PvM


Cause of demise: I had just killed the countess and on my way from Black Marsh wp to Cathedral for Charsi's quest, when I hit a big group of fallen / archers. Things got extremely laggy while replenishing returns, and of course another pack of huntresses with a LE unique blindsides me before golem can slow them. Deeds.
This was my first serious HC character. I could not loot corpse, but almost all pgems and HRs and most usable equips were on mules, so meh. I'm now wondering if I should rebuild a Summoner or try Sorc of some kind
