-
we're leveled up that's nice we got max warcry we seem to be doing we seem to be doing great damage so i think i'm gonna focus great damage so i think i'm gonna focus great damage so i think i'm gonna focus on maxing battle orders first on maxing battle orders first on maxing battle orders first just make sure that we get max live so this is not going to be a problem so this is not going to be a problem with his fanaticism aura with his fanaticism aura with his fanaticism aura because we have this delightful stun so that was no that was a really easy so that was no that was a really easy fight okay got some

oh yeah done found a rare swirling crystal found a rare swirling crystal and i believe these are arctic mitts and i believe these are arctic mitts and i believe these are arctic mitts arctic gloves arctic gloves arctic gloves arctic mitts with 10 increased attack arctic mitts with 10 increased attack arctic mitts with 10 increased attack speed and 10 to life speed and 10 to life speed and 10 to life which i can consider using which i can consider using which i can consider using when killing bosses even though i rather when killing bosses even though i rather when killing bosses even though i rather have the magic find probably have the magic find probably have the magic find probably impossible but let's pick it all up but let's pick it all up for the gold congratulations congratulations yes so i'm happy i'm i finished act 4 yes so i'm happy i'm i finished act 4 yes so i'm happy i'm i finished act 4 now then we can continue to act 5 and now then we can continue to act 5 and now then we can continue to act 5 and then we can start farming eldritch maybe you got a nice little merc armor maybe you got a nice little merc armor here i'd rather have the i'd rather have the fire and lightning res fire and lightning res fire and lightning res on this one on this one on this one however however however this one has a couple sockets so do i this one has a couple sockets so do i this one has a couple sockets so do i have enough runes yeah i've ordered have enough runes yeah i've ordered have enough runes yeah i've ordered plenty of rail rooms
-
so if i so if i shove a rel and orthroon in here that shove a rel and orthroon in here that shove a rel and orthroon in here that would give him a bit of resistance as would give him a bit of resistance as would give him a bit of resistance as well um yeah i think i'm gonna go for that um yeah i think i'm gonna go for that one so shovel rel and orton here and and that maxes out his resistances too hello r mart hello r mart what am i looking to farm from eldridge what am i looking to farm from eldridge what am i looking to farm from eldridge of of of most of all experience at this point most of all experience at this point most of all experience at this point i need to level to about level 70 before i need to level to about level 70 before i need to level to about level 70 before i want to continue to hell i want to continue to hell i want to continue to hell and other than that i'm looking for and other than that i'm looking for and other than that i'm looking for upgrades for my gear basically anything upgrades for my gear basically anything upgrades for my gear basically anything with resistances with resistances with resistances i need a better armor i need a better armor i need a better armor and i need and i need and i need uh uh uh a lum rune would be real really nice so a lum rune would be real really nice so a lum rune would be real really nice so we we might have to go back to the we we might have to go back to the we we might have to go back to the counters for that counters for that counters for that an upgrade for our gloves and boots an upgrade for our gloves and boots an upgrade for our gloves and boots would be great would be great would be great and trying to stack up as much as trying to stack up as much as resistances as possible before hell
-
oh this is a pretty nice claws oh this is a pretty nice claws fortunately we're not an assassin let's go to act five and make our way to let's go to act five and make our way to eldridge and i'm also gonna start keeping my eye and i'm also gonna start keeping my eye out for some war cry spears and i'm not stopping to kill very much and i'm not stopping to kill very much along the way all of these range attackers are just all of these range attackers are just bad news they can do a lot of damage in a short they can do a lot of damage in a short time
-
even though i have cannot be frozen i even though i have cannot be frozen i still managed to get frozen so just rushing through to shank so just rushing through to shank give him a good kicking and then give him a good kicking and then give him a good kicking and then time to farm eldritch we've got a lot of ranged attackers we've got a lot of ranged attackers around us though so gotta clean those up around us though so gotta clean those up around us though so gotta clean those up first first first okay get him get him and he's down all right here's the frigid highlands
-
all right here's the frigid highlands and here's our farm of choice eldritch eldritch this is going to be great farming so already we found an ancient armory so already we found an ancient armory which is great gold and we killed him really fast too so and we killed him really fast too so next game i'm gonna try player three salutations salutations yeah 30 000 for the ancient armor yeah 30 000 for the ancient armor yeah 30 000 for the ancient armor ancient armor of the mammoth yeah the bot can farm yeah the bot can farm eldritch already eldritch already eldritch already i wouldn't really trust it with a low i wouldn't really trust it with a low i wouldn't really trust it with a low level hardcore character at this point i would need a lot more life for that i would need a lot more life for that but the bot could definitely do it
-
but yeah a situation like this with but yeah a situation like this with bunch of archers waiting for you there bunch of archers waiting for you there bunch of archers waiting for you there that can be dangerous very quickly it's not going to be useful to us but it's not going to be useful to us but it's nice to find these little it's nice to find these little it's nice to find these little uniques already good afternoon good afternoon the atlantean the atlantean the atlantean to the paladin skills as long as you have a chicken ability it as long as you have a chicken ability it should be fine yeah yeah it should be should be fine yeah yeah it should be should be fine yeah yeah it should be fine okay so now i'm gonna go for my dual okay so now i'm gonna go for my dual spirit set up here spirit set up here spirit set up here and see how we fare but this is a great spot for warcry
-
but this is a great spot for warcry barbarian because of the stun i can definitely notice i'm losing a lot i can definitely notice i'm losing a lot of corpses because of the of corpses because of the of corpses because of the holy freeze for my mercenary so that definitely took a little bit so that definitely took a little bit longer but there was a lot of experience and since we got the experience shrine and since we got the experience shrine let's just keep killing a little bit let's just keep killing a little bit let's just keep killing a little bit more
-
as you can see i'm taking quite a bit of as you can see i'm taking quite a bit of damage with wearing my two swords let's see if let's see if we got a dangerous shank spawn or not if we got a dangerous shank spawn or not if we got a dangerous shank spawn or not if there's a lot of archers there i there's a lot of archers there i there's a lot of archers there i probably will probably will probably will just go to the next game just trying to get the most experience just trying to get the most experience of this out of this shrine as possible so not many archers here so i think so not many archers here so i think we're pretty safe however shank himself might be a little
-
however shank himself might be a little bit slow to kill with just the war cry bit slow to kill with just the war cry bit slow to kill with just the war cry oh oh oh archers uh oh shank is going on pretty easily uh oh shank is going on pretty easily hey we found another pair of arctic hey we found another pair of arctic hey we found another pair of arctic gauntlets imagine if those have would have been imagine if those have would have been mage fists unique ones got a lot of experience this game a full got a lot of experience this game a full level so i see i got eight viewers now hello so i see i got eight viewers now hello everybody i hope you're all doing well let me know in the chat where you are let me know in the chat where you are from and what you're doing from and what you're doing from and what you're doing nice of you to stop by just stashing my gems and then we go just stashing my gems and then we go down to down to down to mr eldritch
-
so just these two so just these two archers here already do so much damage can definitely notice a difference when can definitely notice a difference when i'm not wearing a shield ah and there's the
-
ah and there's the famous set military pick famous set military pick famous set military pick is it tank ritz is it tank ritz is it tank ritz yeah tankard's crowd bill for some yeah tankard's crowd bill for some yeah tankard's crowd bill for some reason this item keeps popping up and reason this item keeps popping up and reason this item keeps popping up and popping up must be one of the most popping up must be one of the most popping up must be one of the most common items in diablo 2. common items in diablo 2. common items in diablo 2. let's see what we got for this grand let's see what we got for this grand let's see what we got for this grand charm charm charm 131 attack rating and 32 extra gold 131 attack rating and 32 extra gold 131 attack rating and 32 extra gold not very useful to us but not very useful to us but not very useful to us but the attack rating was pretty nice i'm just picking up these random items i'm just picking up these random items for gold because our mercenary still doesn't have because our mercenary still doesn't have a a a helm with life leech i would definitely helm with life leech i would definitely helm with life leech i would definitely like to have some live leech on him by like to have some live leech on him by like to have some live leech on him by now so that would be great to find find so that would be great to find find something with live lists for the something with live lists for the something with live lists for the mercenary and i think i and i think i spawned eldritch on players one now spawned eldritch on players one now spawned eldritch on players one now so he might be a very fast kill this one so he might be a very fast kill this one so he might be a very fast kill this one yeah yeah yeah i forgot to do the command maybe we can kill shank maybe he didn't maybe we can kill shank maybe he didn't spawn on players one maybe he's spawning
-
spawn on players one maybe he's spawning spawn on players one maybe he's spawning players five maybe we got archers though so i gotta be we got archers though so i gotta be careful come come on on on and he's down worked up a few items here let's see a
-
worked up a few items here let's see a partisan partisan partisan four socket partisan now that's four socket partisan now that's four socket partisan now that's something interesting something interesting something interesting i can make another inside i can make another inside i can make another inside i can't it's not f unfortunately but i can't it's not f unfortunately but i can't it's not f unfortunately but let's take a look what else we got let's take a look what else we got let's take a look what else we got two socket crystal sword two socket crystal sword two socket crystal sword would have been nice if that would have would have been nice if that would have would have been nice if that would have been four and a two socket splint mill so let's and a two socket splint mill so let's check out this partisan check out this partisan check out this partisan bring that one with us and then go to bring that one with us and then go to bring that one with us and then go to the next game made a drop god smile upon me thank you made a drop god smile upon me thank you very much chris let's hope your blessing has let's hope your blessing has good effects to stream i'm gonna be farming eldritch for a bit i'm gonna be farming eldritch for a bit and i'll try a few mephisto runs after and i'll try a few mephisto runs after and i'll try a few mephisto runs after this as well and running mephisto on a war cry and running mephisto on a war cry barbarian barbarian barbarian is that the best is that the best is that the best no can it be done yeah sure can it be done yeah sure it's not very fast but it's not very fast but it's not very fast but we aren't hardcore after all so it's not we aren't hardcore after all so it's not we aren't hardcore after all so it's not expected to do everything super fast expected to do everything super fast expected to do everything super fast either ah so
-
ah so there are no mana potions for sale there are no mana potions for sale there are no mana potions for sale at malas at malas at malas so i gotta switch act dropped the zod and vex yesterday on the dropped the zod and vex yesterday on the battle net oh nice battle net oh nice battle net oh nice congratulations getting a zod is amazing that's the getting a zod is amazing that's the rarest of them all rarest of them all rarest of them all now you can make breath of the dying keeping this four socket partisan and keeping this four socket partisan and i'll i already have an ethereal partisan i'll i already have an ethereal partisan i'll i already have an ethereal partisan here here here which i could try to cube actually at this point i have actually at this point i have the extra m rune the extra m rune the extra m rune because it takes a rel m and a perfect because it takes a rel m and a perfect because it takes a rel m and a perfect amethyst but i would like to but i would like to yeah hold on a little bit to the m roon yeah hold on a little bit to the m roon yeah hold on a little bit to the m roon still so as i'm on hardcore it's very so as i'm on hardcore it's very important that you don't switch important that you don't switch important that you don't switch straight to the frigid highlands but go straight to the frigid highlands but go straight to the frigid highlands but go to haragath first and load the act and to haragath first and load the act and to haragath first and load the act and then you go down to the frigid highlands then you go down to the frigid highlands then you go down to the frigid highlands because you see i'm still loading because you see i'm still loading because you see i'm still loading and at that all of that time archers
-
and at that all of that time archers and at that all of that time archers could attack you and yes indeed we're a nightmare so a and yes indeed we're a nightmare so a zod is not possible here of course we've got an archer pack joining us here we've got an archer pack joining us here which is not good nothing good this time but we're still nothing good this time but we're still getting quite a bit of rares getting quite a bit of rares getting quite a bit of rares so it's really helping out to have at so it's really helping out to have at so it's really helping out to have at least a little bit of a map
-
i'm fairly sure i can already start i'm fairly sure i can already start finding plus three to warcry spears at finding plus three to warcry spears at finding plus three to warcry spears at this point so i'll keep so i'll keep checking checking checking quail rats that's bad news we're level 57 now so we're getting we're level 57 now so we're getting great experience oh these archers are not oh these archers are not making me very happy hello wyom players 5 and not 3 hello wyom players 5 and not 3 experience only experience only experience only i get better drops on five
-
like eldritch always drops his two items like eldritch always drops his two items that's true that's true that's true but but but i get better drops and more experience i get better drops and more experience i get better drops and more experience per run per run per run this this this way since i'm able to kill them way since i'm able to kill them way since i'm able to kill them in this fashion do you think players three would be more do you think players three would be more effective there's an iron and a unique scythe there's an iron and a unique scythe that's interesting that's interesting that's interesting i believe that unique site scythe has i believe that unique site scythe has i believe that unique site scythe has open wounds let's take a look let's take a look it's ethereal ethereal soul harvest ethereal soul harvest 30 of open wounds 30 of open wounds 30 of open wounds 20 all resistances 20 all resistances 20 all resistances and it's ethereal it's really low damage
-
it's really low damage though but would it be useful to have though but would it be useful to have though but would it be useful to have open wounds on a boss open wounds on a boss open wounds on a boss maybe i don't think i will need it i don't think i will need it so we'll just sell it to marla in the so we'll just sell it to marla in the so we'll just sell it to marla in the next game and i obviously like to keep at least and i obviously like to keep at least one row of rejuvenation potions with me yeah you think it's better on three so yeah you think it's better on three so let's try three for a while let's try three for a while let's try three for a while the drops are the same from eldritch the drops are the same from eldritch the drops are the same from eldritch that's true that's true that's true but the monsters around him will have but the monsters around him will have but the monsters around him will have better drops
-
well let's do a few on players three well let's do a few on players three let's see if we see a difference i mean the killing speed is obviously a i mean the killing speed is obviously a lot faster on players three there's no lot faster on players three there's no lot faster on players three there's no denying that salutations
-
salutations not in town we've got a nice one that we can sell we've got a nice one that we can sell for some money for some money for some money and we leveled up to level 58. so i definitely want to be around level so i definitely want to be around level 70 or so before i 70 or so before i 70 or so before i want to go into hell but i'm really curious how my but i'm really curious how my resistances are gonna be because i resistances are gonna be because i resistances are gonna be because i just barely have full resistances on just barely have full resistances on just barely have full resistances on nightmare i think so i'll just keep continuing to max so i'll just keep continuing to max battle orders and battle orders and battle orders and get us get us get us get my maximum amount of life
-
and when battle orders are maxed i can and when battle orders are maxed i can start focusing on my start focusing on my start focusing on my damage again five percent viruses charm that can
-
five percent viruses charm that can definitely go into the stash at this point i will gather everything at this point i will gather everything that will give me more resistances so the experience is definitely slowing
-
so the experience is definitely slowing down a bit i thought it would be a down a bit i thought it would be a down a bit i thought it would be a little bit more than this little bit more than this little bit more than this at this point let's see how much we will get now let's see how much we will get now we're on bar one two three bar number we're on bar one two three bar number we're on bar one two three bar number four i'm even wondering if maybe i'm already i'm even wondering if maybe i'm already ready to progress a little bit into act ready to progress a little bit into act ready to progress a little bit into act five yeah we only got one bar of experience yeah we only got one bar of experience here so i don't think it's worth it to here so i don't think it's worth it to here so i don't think it's worth it to keep farming eldridge for experience you can farm him for you can farm him for other things for items and things like other things for items and things like other things for items and things like that but let's try a couple of mephisto that but let's try a couple of mephisto that but let's try a couple of mephisto runs see how we fare now i know i have a see how we fare now i know i have a horrible horrible horrible mephisto map so i'll just reset the map mephisto map so i'll just reset the map mephisto map so i'll just reset the map real quick okay
-
okay then i'll switch back to a shield though then i'll switch back to a shield though then i'll switch back to a shield though one it gives me more mf but two it's a one it gives me more mf but two it's a one it gives me more mf but two it's a lot safer because there are dolls and lot safer because there are dolls and lot safer because there are dolls and all sorts of all sorts of all sorts of nasty things down there yes yes i think i can farm travel but but nightmare travel doesn't nightmare travel doesn't nightmare travel doesn't give me very many useful items at least give me very many useful items at least give me very many useful items at least it doesn't have a very high chance of it doesn't have a very high chance of it doesn't have a very high chance of the items that i want so i'd be much the items that i want so i'd be much the items that i want so i'd be much better off farming the fisto however better off farming the fisto however better off farming the fisto however mephisto is a lot slower mephisto is a lot slower mephisto is a lot slower to kill to kill to kill as we will soon find out as we will soon find out as we will soon find out like i'm a bit higher than i was when i like i'm a bit higher than i was when i like i'm a bit higher than i was when i killed him the first time so killed him the first time so killed him the first time so just switching to my teleport staff seems like we rolled a pretty bad map seems like we rolled a pretty bad map this time too
-
i have quite a lot of gold so i'm okay i have quite a lot of gold so i'm okay with with with wasting a little bit wasting a little bit wasting a little bit just to test these runs out so here's level three so here's level three and here we can also show how we deal and here we can also show how we deal and here we can also show how we deal with with with the council because they're here as well the council because they're here as well the council because they're here as well of course dual enchanted so i'll just keep my dual enchanted so i'll just keep my distance i can definitely notice i have a lot i can definitely notice i have a lot more damage than more damage than more damage than since the last time i was here and we should have enough to kill
-
and we should have enough to kill mephisto now come on mephisto come on mephisto give me something good and like i said this is going to be and like i said this is going to be quite slow quite slow quite slow so he's not a mephisto farmer build so he's not a mephisto farmer build so he's not a mephisto farmer build but we could try a couple of kills and but we could try a couple of kills and but we could try a couple of kills and see what we get this is going a lot slower than i had this is going a lot slower than i had hoped
-
and we get five blue items and we get five blue items thanks a lot mephisto yeah so we're not gonna spend too much yeah so we're not gonna spend too much time doing it doing this but let's try a time doing it doing this but let's try a time doing it doing this but let's try a couple more kills let's just see if we can speed it up a let's just see if we can speed it up a little bit little bit little bit some way or other one thing that would help a lot i think one thing that would help a lot i think is to have crushing blow on the is to have crushing blow on the is to have crushing blow on the mercenary so i have this so i have this scythe scythe scythe a two socket scythe a two socket scythe a two socket scythe and i could make strength and that would and i could make strength and that would and i could make strength and that would give him some crushing blow yeah obedience yeah obedience would be great however i need a fire a would be great however i need a fire a would be great however i need a fire a five-second weapon and a foul rune five-second weapon and a foul rune five-second weapon and a foul rune i don't have the rune yet not here but i'm wondering if it would not here but i'm wondering if it would be a waste to make the be a waste to make the be a waste to make the strength in a site let's just take a quick peek at the roon let's just take a quick peek at the roon word

and here and here that will give 25 percent crushing blow that will give 25 percent crushing blow that will give 25 percent crushing blow so it's damage going to be really low so it's damage going to be really low so it's damage going to be really low anyway so let's just try making an m anyway so let's just try making an m anyway so let's just try making an m tier and see if that can speed up the killing and see if that can speed up the killing mephisto a little bit um um tear tear tear so that gives my mercenary 25 crushing so that gives my mercenary 25 crushing so that gives my mercenary 25 crushing blow blow blow so i'll switch away my insides so i'll switch away my insides so i'll switch away my insides temporarily temporarily temporarily and let's see in the next game if this and let's see in the next game if this and let's see in the next game if this makes it a little bit faster and we got a pretty horrible map but and we got a pretty horrible map but since we are since we are since we are not gonna farm him not gonna farm him not gonna farm him very much i think it's okay for now we got undead soul killer so i gotta be we got undead soul killer so i gotta be careful
-
all right let's check it out all right let's check it out do the console first definitely noticing the lack of insight definitely noticing the lack of insight while killing the council so i might have to hold off on killing so i might have to hold off on killing the council or i have to switch to the the council or i have to switch to the the council or i have to switch to the inside yeah i suppose i could just carry the yeah i suppose i could just carry the insight in my cube hop over to mephisto and hop over to mephisto and just quickly gonna grab some potions okay mercenary is currently wearing the okay mercenary is currently wearing the strength room word so strength room word so strength room word so let's see how we fare should go down a bit more quickly now
-
should go down a bit more quickly now that i have crushing blow on him as well oh yeah that definitely is helping it oh yeah that definitely is helping it seems unfortunately he's he's targeting my unfortunately he's he's targeting my mercenary mostly now mercenary mostly now mercenary mostly now come on if he still attack me america's america's tanking him like a champ though but we're figuring out our little but we're figuring out our little techniques here techniques here techniques here so let's try in the next game i will so let's try in the next game i will so let's try in the next game i will carry the thing in the cube
-
hello do you know hello do you know yeah sure yeah sure yeah sure any tips are welcome i am learning every any tips are welcome i am learning every any tips are welcome i am learning every day in this game even though i've been day in this game even though i've been day in this game even though i've been playing it for 20 years you always learn playing it for 20 years you always learn playing it for 20 years you always learn something new so something new so something new so please please please any tips are always welcome and to be to be honest i'm just testing and to be to be honest i'm just testing it out a little bit it out a little bit it out a little bit i'm just trying to see if i can farm him but i have no expectations to farm him but i have no expectations to be actually be actually be actually very efficient at farming mephisto with very efficient at farming mephisto with very efficient at farming mephisto with this build like this is like this is by definition not a boss farming build yeah should i just give up on the yeah should i just give up on the council that might be a good idea council that might be a good idea council that might be a good idea actually actually actually because what is the council gonna give because what is the council gonna give because what is the council gonna give me your nightmare anyway me your nightmare anyway me your nightmare anyway not very much not very much not very much the drop chances are so low i think that's actually a really good i think that's actually a really good point point point and that's also true and that's also true and that's also true i i i i realized i forgot to um i realized i forgot to um i realized i forgot to um use battle cry the last run only until use battle cry the last run only until use battle cry the last run only until the end i've remembered to do it okay so let's try this time then okay so let's try this time then we'll we'll we'll hop over the river
-
hop over the river hop over the river immediately and then i'll and then i'll just make a quick town portal so my just make a quick town portal so my just make a quick town portal so my mercenary is right there with me now if anybody knows how i can make now if anybody knows how i can make mephisto target me instead of the mercenary instead of the mercenary that would be very useful to know that would be very useful to know that would be very useful to know but yeah look now he's just but yeah look now he's just but yeah look now he's just a quarter life already so the crushing a quarter life already so the crushing a quarter life already so the crushing blow is really helping on the mercenary like this was actually a pretty decent like this was actually a pretty decent killing speed it's not a sorceress but it's not a sorceress but that wasn't too bad actually yeah you're right yeah you're right they are they are they are they are dangerous in nightmare because they are dangerous in nightmare because they are dangerous in nightmare because isn't it a nightmare that they actually isn't it a nightmare that they actually isn't it a nightmare that they actually have the this bug that you get the have the this bug that you get the have the this bug that you get the double enchants
-
double enchants double enchants that's only a nightmare right or is it also in hell i can't remember or is it also in hell i can't remember but you have this bug that it does but you have this bug that it does but you have this bug that it does it does double damage or like it does double damage or like it does double damage or like 10x damage 10x damage 10x damage because of some weird bug in the because of some weird bug in the because of some weird bug in the enchantments so if we're not killing the council we so if we're not killing the council we don't need insight don't need insight don't need insight save some inventory space and we found a and we found a catholic seal ring catholic seal ring catholic seal ring with life stolen perhaps not very useful with life stolen perhaps not very useful with life stolen perhaps not very useful for us but i might keep it anyway for us but i might keep it anyway for us but i might keep it anyway never know what i want to do with this never know what i want to do with this never know what i want to do with this barb later i think it's in hell too it's called in i think it's in hell too it's called in fire explosions and they deal more fire explosions and they deal more fire explosions and they deal more damage yeah that's right so so there's no escape in hell either oh damn oh damn big pack of mana burn blunderbores big pack of mana burn blunderbores big pack of mana burn blunderbores like the durance of hate still is no like the durance of hate still is no like the durance of hate still is no joke even though i'm level 60 but you can lose your life pretty quickly in you can lose your life pretty quickly in here here here but i was pretty happy with how the last
-
but i was pretty happy with how the last but i was pretty happy with how the last run went like that went pretty fast run went like that went pretty fast run went like that went pretty fast so so so actually it might be quite actually it might be quite actually it might be quite viable to reset this map a couple of viable to reset this map a couple of viable to reset this map a couple of times and see if we can find a good times and see if we can find a good times and see if we can find a good better map and just run him for a while better map and just run him for a while better map and just run him for a while because nightmare mephisto is great for because nightmare mephisto is great for because nightmare mephisto is great for all of the drops take a town portal make sure the take a town portal make sure the mercenary is right there with me now hit me mephisto not the mercenary now hit me mephisto not the mercenary here i am yeah this is going a lot better than i yeah this is going a lot better than i had expected had expected had expected and and and this is definitely because of the this is definitely because of the this is definitely because of the additional strength on the mercenary it definitely has a lot of effect to it definitely has a lot of effect to also have crushing blow on the mercenary also have crushing blow on the mercenary also have crushing blow on the mercenary that was a great decision
-
okay so since it's going this well i okay so since it's going this well i think i'm gonna think i'm gonna think i'm gonna reset the map a couple times see if we reset the map a couple times see if we reset the map a couple times see if we can find a better map viper on the way yeah viper magi would viper on the way yeah viper magi would be amazing to find be amazing to find be amazing to find that would be the best in slot item that would be the best in slot item that would be the best in slot item really faster cast rate resistances faster cast rate resistances oh man oh man oh man the scholars will also be amazing it doesn't have the resistances but the it doesn't have the resistances but the magic find is just godly on that thing and i'm just picking up and i'm just picking up most of the rares that i can find most of the rares that i can find most of the rares that i can find just to get some extra gold so i can just to get some extra gold so i can just to get some extra gold so i can start gambling start gambling start gambling like a warm skull would also be great like a warm skull would also be great like a warm skull would also be great for the mercenary something with life for the mercenary something with life for the mercenary something with life leech that would be interesting that would be interesting yeah it's right here yeah it's right here yeah it's right here so it does mean i have to switch around so it does mean i have to switch around so it does mean i have to switch around my gear a little bit my gear a little bit my gear a little bit or maybe not no i don't i can just or maybe not no i don't i can just or maybe not no i don't i can just have to teleport staff and also teleport have to teleport staff and also teleport have to teleport staff and also teleport to mephisto to mephisto to mephisto it gets a little bit more gold intensive it gets a little bit more gold intensive it gets a little bit more gold intensive this way
-
yeah look at this this is going really yeah look at this this is going really well here we go unique chain mill and a mesh here we go unique chain mill and a mesh belt belt belt mesh belt could be interesting with some mesh belt could be interesting with some mesh belt could be interesting with some resistances here we go 49 to life seven to light here we go 49 to life seven to light rest um um yeah i think i'll take it as an upgrade yeah i think i'll take it as an upgrade yeah i think i'll take it as an upgrade this one has cold resistance but cold resistance isn't very highly cold resistance isn't very highly prioritized prioritized prioritized and the chain mill is and the chain mill is and the chain mill is sparkling mail sparkling mail sparkling mail not very useful but still we found not very useful but still we found not very useful but still we found a first unique from mephisto a first unique from mephisto a first unique from mephisto so we're heading in the right direction so we're heading in the right direction so we're heading in the right direction so let's try out this map one more time i'm just going to stash my whole war cry
-
i'm just going to stash my whole war cry kit here here stash the spirit sword and let's see how fast we can do it and let's see how fast we can do it so like for a war cry barbarian i think like for a war cry barbarian i think this is a pretty decent mephisto farming this is a pretty decent mephisto farming this is a pretty decent mephisto farming speed this linked mail this linked mail is nothing useful is nothing useful is nothing useful but it will give me some but it will give me some but it will give me some gold because i might be able to sustain gold because i might be able to sustain gold because i might be able to sustain all of the
-
all of the all of the teleport costs with the gold that i'm teleport costs with the gold that i'm teleport costs with the gold that i'm getting from all of these armors and getting from all of these armors and getting from all of these armors and things i'm finding now let's check out how expensive it is to let's check out how expensive it is to repair the teleport staff on the next repair the teleport staff on the next repair the teleport staff on the next run yeah pretty decent killing speed if you yeah pretty decent killing speed if you ask me a sorceress would a sorceress would of course outperform us 10 times but
-
of course outperform us 10 times but of course outperform us 10 times but we are in a barbarian here hey look at that unique kite shield hey look at that unique kite shield now that can be interesting now that can be interesting now that can be interesting is that is that the one with mf is that the one with mf no no no it is one with some resistances and it is one with some resistances and it is one with some resistances and paladin skill levels paladin skill levels paladin skill levels we are not a paladin we are not a paladin we are not a paladin but we are dropping a few uniques here but we are dropping a few uniques here but we are dropping a few uniques here and there so and there so and there so i'm liking this what if you switch black for spirit on what if you switch black for spirit on the finish that would definitely be a the finish that would definitely be a the finish that would definitely be a better option better option better option also i could also i could also i could cast battle orders with the spirit in cast battle orders with the spirit in cast battle orders with the spirit in the next run so that would be a little the next run so that would be a little the next run so that would be a little bit of more life as well and i think i would have enough space and i think i would have enough space with me with me with me to just carry the spirit sword with me to just carry the spirit sword with me to just carry the spirit sword with me so that's actually a good idea let's so that's actually a good idea let's so that's actually a good idea let's let's try that let's try that let's try that so i'll take out the spirit sword um um here here here and and and first i'll do a quick repair hello there zonda
-
hello there zonda yeah sure i'll show the gear so that full repair was only 70 000 so so that full repair was only 70 000 so if i find a couple of armors if i find a couple of armors if i find a couple of armors then i can sustain the teleport staff in then i can sustain the teleport staff in then i can sustain the teleport staff in this farm pretty well this farm pretty well this farm pretty well i wouldn't be losing gold okay so as requested let's go over the okay so as requested let's go over the gear real quick gear real quick gear real quick so so so i'm switching things around a little bit i'm switching things around a little bit i'm switching things around a little bit during the during the during the farm farming but this is my sort of farm farming but this is my sort of farm farming but this is my sort of normal setup normal setup normal setup uh when i'm playing through the game uh when i'm playing through the game uh when i'm playing through the game for the weapon i have a 35 fcr spirit for the weapon i have a 35 fcr spirit for the weapon i have a 35 fcr spirit sword i was really lucky with this roll sword i was really lucky with this roll sword i was really lucky with this roll my first roll was only 25. my first roll was only 25. my first roll was only 25. here i have 15 mf here i have 15 mf here i have 15 mf uh 28 fire rest gloves with 10 increased uh 28 fire rest gloves with 10 increased uh 28 fire rest gloves with 10 increased intact speed so they're really good intact speed so they're really good intact speed so they're really good i got a ring with some mana and a little i got a ring with some mana and a little i got a ring with some mana and a little bit of resistances bit of resistances bit of resistances a belt with a little bit of life and a belt with a little bit of life and a belt with a little bit of life and resistances resistances resistances a monoling for the mana regeneration a monoling for the mana regeneration a monoling for the mana regeneration 21 magic find boots 21 magic find boots 21 magic find boots a rhyme shield for the cannot be frozen a rhyme shield for the cannot be frozen a rhyme shield for the cannot be frozen resistances and magic find it's just resistances and magic find it's just resistances and magic find it's just amazing amazing amazing then i have a 10 fcr 8 magic find amulet then i have a 10 fcr 8 magic find amulet then i have a 10 fcr 8 magic find amulet a stealth room board for the faster a stealth room board for the faster a stealth room board for the faster castrate castrate castrate and a lore helm which i made in a and a lore helm which i made in a and a lore helm which i made in a barbarian helm that gives plus one to
-
barbarian helm that gives plus one to barbarian helm that gives plus one to find item and then find item and then find item and then on the switch i have a black flail which on the switch i have a black flail which on the switch i have a black flail which gives me crushing blow so i can kill gives me crushing blow so i can kill gives me crushing blow so i can kill bosses bosses bosses and an ancient splash roll ortal shield and an ancient splash roll ortal shield and an ancient splash roll ortal shield for resistances for resistances for resistances but actually as i'm killing mephisto i'm but actually as i'm killing mephisto i'm but actually as i'm killing mephisto i'm wearing my rhyme shield because it has wearing my rhyme shield because it has wearing my rhyme shield because it has more magic fine more magic fine more magic fine and then i also have a teleport staff on and then i also have a teleport staff on and then i also have a teleport staff on the switch the switch the switch right now right now right now so so so now i have a really nice map where now i have a really nice map where now i have a really nice map where it's just two quick teleports and then it's just two quick teleports and then it's just two quick teleports and then i'm at mephisto's place i'm at mephisto's place i'm at mephisto's place so so so let's do another run one teleport one teleport and then we zip over and then we zip over and then we zip over to the other side here as well to the other side here as well to the other side here as well teleport and we are teleport and we are teleport and we are smashing the fisto again oh you're very welcome jordan oh you're very welcome jordan please please feel free to ask any please please feel free to ask any please please feel free to ask any questions okay so we're almost okay so we're almost down to down to down to death death death and then i'll switch to the spirit sword
-
and then i'll switch to the spirit sword and then i'll switch to the spirit sword and finish him up with the war cry and finish him up with the war cry and finish him up with the war cry and he's done and he's done and he's done yeah this is a pretty decent killing yeah this is a pretty decent killing yeah this is a pretty decent killing speed for a barbarian optimizing our runs a little bit as we optimizing our runs a little bit as we go thank you very much for all of the go thank you very much for all of the go thank you very much for all of the tips already tips already tips already it's great to learn more about this game it's great to learn more about this game it's great to learn more about this game even after 20 years and also because of my loading times and also because of my loading times they are not very fast so it's actually they are not very fast so it's actually they are not very fast so it's actually a lot faster for me to just a lot faster for me to just a lot faster for me to just walk act three rather than taking the walk act three rather than taking the walk act three rather than taking the the portal to act four the portal to act four the portal to act four and wait for it to load got another caithan's ring which is not got another caithan's ring which is not very useful for us and and two so we got very low travelings travel so we got very low travelings travel time now okay it's not taking a very long time okay it's not taking a very long time for us to reach mephisto with this at for us to reach mephisto with this at for us to reach mephisto with this at this rate so i'm very pleased with this
-
and he's dying pretty fast too and he's dying pretty fast too so yeah we got a decent farm going on so yeah we got a decent farm going on so yeah we got a decent farm going on now switch back to the spirit and do the switch back to the spirit and do the rest with warcry or our mana region is just not enough to or our mana region is just not enough to sustain war cry unfortunately sustain war cry unfortunately sustain war cry unfortunately not without the inside we had better success on the previous we had better success on the previous couple runs and our mercenary died as well but we're and our mercenary died as well but we're learning do i always play on hardcore no do i always play on hardcore no i'm very much a soft core player i'm very much a soft core player i'm very much a soft core player very much used to very much used to very much used to always playing on high risk areas and on very low life so high risk areas and on very low life so hardcore is definitely a big switch for hardcore is definitely a big switch for hardcore is definitely a big switch for me me me so it has been really nice to take so it has been really nice to take so it has been really nice to take things very slowly things very slowly things very slowly be very careful with the health
-
be very careful with the health be very careful with the health and and and learn more about the game this way i learn more about the game this way i learn more about the game this way i really have a better appreciation for really have a better appreciation for really have a better appreciation for diablo 2 ever since i started playing diablo 2 ever since i started playing diablo 2 ever since i started playing hardcore you get much more refined you get much more refined mechanics it's quite a rush to be it's quite a rush to be playing through dangerous areas knowing playing through dangerous areas knowing playing through dangerous areas knowing that you can die and lose all of your that you can die and lose all of your that you can die and lose all of your progress what if i take a mite aura merc what if i take a mite aura merc um like the merc isn't doing very much like the merc isn't doing very much damage damage damage as such like his damage is coming from as such like his damage is coming from as such like his damage is coming from crushing blow crushing blow crushing blow and that would not be affected by the and that would not be affected by the and that would not be affected by the might aura obviously might aura obviously might aura obviously neither does it neither does it neither does it affect my war cries so i think i would prefer to have the so i think i would prefer to have the slow
-
slow slow because mephisto does hit slower because because mephisto does hit slower because because mephisto does hit slower because of the holy freeze and by the way always open this chest and by the way always open this chest i realize we are on a nightmare so it i realize we are on a nightmare so it i realize we are on a nightmare so it might not hold very much on nightmare might not hold very much on nightmare might not hold very much on nightmare but i found a low rune from that chest but i found a low rune from that chest but i found a low rune from that chest um when d2r came out so i always open um when d2r came out so i always open um when d2r came out so i always open the chest now actually mephisto dropped me a low rune actually mephisto dropped me a low rune as well you started playing hardcore four years you started playing hardcore four years ago and never came back to softcore ago and never came back to softcore ago and never came back to softcore i think yeah i think yeah i think yeah like like like i can't promise that on the latter reset i can't promise that on the latter reset i can't promise that on the latter reset all i'm gonna play is hardcore all i'm gonna play is hardcore all i'm gonna play is hardcore but there is something to it there is but there is something to it there is but there is something to it there is like it feels like the adult version of like it feels like the adult version of like it feels like the adult version of diablo 2 or something like that diablo 2 or something like that diablo 2 or something like that like like i finally started playing or like like i finally started playing or like like i finally started playing or something it it's i really like it just noticing we found a just noticing we found a three percent magic find small charm three percent magic find small charm three percent magic find small charm which is great all the small bits help which is great all the small bits help which is great all the small bits help at this point so on on the ladder reset i think i will
-
so on on the ladder reset i think i will play soft core first play soft core first play soft core first get a character going there get a character going there get a character going there i will make a barbarian there as well i will make a barbarian there as well i will make a barbarian there as well that's actually why i started this war that's actually why i started this war that's actually why i started this war cry barbarian because i wanted to test cry barbarian because i wanted to test cry barbarian because i wanted to test it out it out it out for for for for the ladder for the ladder for the ladder and yeah i will start with the softcore yeah i will start with the softcore character but then i think it won't be character but then i think it won't be character but then i think it won't be long until i make long until i make long until i make uh start my hardcore journey there as uh start my hardcore journey there as uh start my hardcore journey there as well like now i'm on single player because i like now i'm on single player because i like to have all of the control like to have all of the control like to have all of the control but i think it would be a lot of fun but i think it would be a lot of fun but i think it would be a lot of fun online hardcore however i did play hardcore back in the however i did play hardcore back in the day day day and and and i kind of got disenchanted with it i kind of got disenchanted with it i kind of got disenchanted with it because i always got pk'd we found a unique long battle bow we found a unique long battle bow it's totally useless for us it's totally useless for us it's totally useless for us but it's fun to find uniques but it's fun to find uniques but it's fun to find uniques here's the weisen draw and that was a pretty decent kill we got and that was a pretty decent kill we got there okay okay let's try the next game like any any time now a viper magical like any any time now a viper magical drop or a warm skull or maybe a water drop or a warm skull or maybe a water
-
drop or a warm skull or maybe a water walks walks walks just good just good just good good smoke low level items would be good smoke low level items would be good smoke low level items would be great for us great for us great for us yes yeah you always play offline yeah i get yeah you always play offline yeah i get that that's what i started doing with that that's what i started doing with that that's what i started doing with the the the release of d2r release of d2r release of d2r i started online because i've always i started online because i've always i started online because i've always played online played online played online so automatically i just went online but so automatically i just went online but so automatically i just went online but then i discovered single player and i then i discovered single player and i then i discovered single player and i didn't go back but on the latter reset but on the latter reset like there is a lot of fun in just being like there is a lot of fun in just being like there is a lot of fun in just being poor all together poor all together poor all together and doing a bit of trading in the and doing a bit of trading in the and doing a bit of trading in the beginning like in the beginning it's fun beginning like in the beginning it's fun beginning like in the beginning it's fun but it doesn't take very long until it but it doesn't take very long until it but it doesn't take very long until it just gets quite repetitive then it's a lot more fun to be on single then it's a lot more fun to be on single player attack me attack me come on
-
being a little bit dangerous now getting being a little bit dangerous now getting this low life he's almost dead almost but i don't want he's almost dead almost but i don't want to make i don't want to take any risks that's just stupid to do that in that's just stupid to do that in hardcore yeah one yeah one it took one more war cry yeah mage fist of frost burns those yeah mage fist of frost burns those would be amazing too to find would be amazing too to find would be amazing too to find we found a breastplate though we found a breastplate though we found a breastplate though and if i'm not mistaken that is venom and if i'm not mistaken that is venom and if i'm not mistaken that is venom ward ward ward yep here it is yep here it is yep here it is 90 poison res useless useless but another unique we seem to be but another unique we seem to be but another unique we seem to be dropping a unique dropping a unique dropping a unique almost every run now well i'm not hacking on this playthrough well i'm not hacking on this playthrough this is just a solo cellphone this is just a solo cellphone this is just a solo cellphone playthrough
-
yeah of course you can yeah of course you can upload the upload the upload the upload some items into your play through upload some items into your play through upload some items into your play through you can do that but there's no fun in you can do that but there's no fun in you can do that but there's no fun in that and i don't like these ghoul lords that and i don't like these ghoul lords that are attacking me from a distance and my and my is just calmly killing me fisto is just calmly killing me fisto is just calmly killing me fisto well i'm killing all of these weaker well i'm killing all of these weaker well i'm killing all of these weaker monsters hey thanks for the support on the bot
-
hey thanks for the support on the bot thing thing thing yeah i only use it on the i'm doing it yeah i only use it on the i'm doing it yeah i only use it on the i'm doing it as a project basically it's a as a project basically it's a as a project basically it's a single i'm i'd started the holy grail single i'm i'd started the holy grail single i'm i'd started the holy grail by hand oh look at this one 30 000 gold by hand oh look at this one 30 000 gold by hand oh look at this one 30 000 gold i started the i started the i started the the project by hand the project by hand the project by hand and then i found this bot and now i'm and then i found this bot and now i'm and then i found this bot and now i'm just sort of keeping statistics of how just sort of keeping statistics of how just sort of keeping statistics of how many runs it will take until it many runs it will take until it many runs it will take until it completes the holy grail so that's completes the holy grail so that's completes the holy grail so that's really cool and i'm learning python in really cool and i'm learning python in really cool and i'm learning python in the process like you say the process like you say the process like you say so this so this so this this playthrough is solo cell phone this this playthrough is solo cell phone this this playthrough is solo cell phone this is just because i want to have fun is just because i want to have fun is just because i want to have fun and and and uh uh uh relax relax relax like i said when i was making these like i said when i was making these like i said when i was making these botting videos i also said that i would botting videos i also said that i would botting videos i also said that i would keep playing by hand as well keep playing by hand as well keep playing by hand as well and that's what i'm doing now and that's what i'm doing now and that's what i'm doing now having a lot of fun having a lot of fun having a lot of fun relaxing with the game relaxing with the game relaxing with the game and the bot grail is another project and the bot grail is another project and the bot grail is another project that i'm doing so there are two separate that i'm doing so there are two separate that i'm doing so there are two separate things that's why i'm also careful to things that's why i'm also careful to things that's why i'm also careful to say solo self found in the in the titles say solo self found in the in the titles say solo self found in the in the titles so yeah the black the black room word is a

yeah the black the black room word is a huge improvement that made things a lot huge improvement that made things a lot huge improvement that made things a lot faster if i remember to use it though i faster if i remember to use it though i faster if i remember to use it though i was just hitting it with him with my was just hitting it with him with my was just hitting it with him with my spirit sword just now spirit sword just now spirit sword just now but my mercenary did a good job of but my mercenary did a good job of but my mercenary did a good job of killing him with his strength pole arm and switch back to the spirit and war and switch back to the spirit and war crime down some saigons would be nice because that some saigons would be nice because that gives me a lot of increased attack speed gives me a lot of increased attack speed gives me a lot of increased attack speed 40 cold rest 20 faster run block 40 cold rest 20 faster run block 40 cold rest 20 faster run block so that's an okay find so that's an okay find so that's an okay find but especially in combination with the but especially in combination with the but especially in combination with the belt and gloves then you get some pretty belt and gloves then you get some pretty belt and gloves then you get some pretty nice bonuses you get magic find as well you don't like back seating you don't like back seating feel free to provide feedback or if you feel free to provide feedback or if you feel free to provide feedback or if you have any better ideas how i can improve have any better ideas how i can improve have any better ideas how i can improve the runs like i like optimizing the runs like i like optimizing the runs like i like optimizing but i i am healing him i'm but i i am healing him i'm but i i am healing him i'm i'm you might not see it but i press
-
i'm you might not see it but i press i'm you might not see it but i press shift and then two shift and then two shift and then two so i am dropping potions on him that way so i am dropping potions on him that way so i am dropping potions on him that way maybe you can hear him say thanks maybe you can hear him say thanks maybe you can hear him say thanks sometimes sometimes sometimes so i am healing him but the greater so i am healing him but the greater so i am healing him but the greater healing potions are just not healing healing potions are just not healing healing potions are just not healing up against mephisto's poison up against mephisto's poison up against mephisto's poison it seems switch back to the spirit and shout him switch back to the spirit and shout him to death i think it's so funny with the character i think it's so funny with the character that you're actually shouting monsters that you're actually shouting monsters that you're actually shouting monsters to death that's the best part about this that's the best part about this character imagine shouting someone to death in imagine shouting someone to death in real life
-
real life real life that'd be a pretty horrible death yeah he does seem to hit whoever is yeah he does seem to hit whoever is closer like i might have to closer like i might have to closer like i might have to try positioning myself a little bit try positioning myself a little bit try positioning myself a little bit differently maybe that's what makes him differently maybe that's what makes him differently maybe that's what makes him make some target make some target make some target this run was smooth yeah this run was smooth yeah this run was smooth yeah it was a pretty damn smooth run it was a pretty damn smooth run it was a pretty damn smooth run getting into the mephisto running groove useless but nice to have a little set useless but nice to have a little set item find yeah then you know that you'll get yeah then you know that you'll get shouted to death that's for sure yeah now i moved and then mephisto yeah now i moved and then mephisto turned back turned back turned back so now he seems to be switching back and so now he seems to be switching back and so now he seems to be switching back and forth
-
but if i sort of get myself really close but if i sort of get myself really close up to him then he seems to be targeting up to him then he seems to be targeting up to him then he seems to be targeting me rather than the mercenary and he's down and we found saigon's and he's down and we found saigon's shield as well i already found a saigon shields if i i already found a saigon shields if i remember correctly gives me plus one two skills and we gives me plus one two skills and we found a cedar bow found a cedar bow found a cedar bow now what is the cedar bow again i can't now what is the cedar bow again i can't now what is the cedar bow again i can't remember remember remember i can't oh that's kuko shokaku oh that's kuko shokaku always a fun item to find always a fun item to find always a fun item to find totally useless but totally useless but totally useless but i love the name i love the name i love the name okay next game
-
oh oh oops i accidentally sailed west by oops i accidentally sailed west by oops i accidentally sailed west by clicking machine so i'll keep continuing so i'll keep continuing to max battle orders let's check it out let's check it out no it's eisenhart no it's eisenhart no it's eisenhart good call jordan what is saigen shield that oh no saigons what is saigen shield that oh no saigons is a tower shield that's right this one was eisenhart's this one was eisenhart's which is totally useless such a shame there's so many useless such a shame there's so many useless items in this game yeah putting that strength through word
-
yeah putting that strength through word is one of the best decisions in this is one of the best decisions in this is one of the best decisions in this whole playthrough whole playthrough whole playthrough putting a strength room word on the putting a strength room word on the putting a strength room word on the mercenary gonna do that for all of the boss fights gonna do that for all of the boss fights from now on and we found the broadsword and we found the broadsword set broadsword it's also ice and hearts actually it's also ice and hearts actually now we found the now we found the now we found the eisenhart's sword and shield eisenhart's sword and shield eisenhart's sword and shield in consecutive runs that's pretty funny hi there christoph how are you doing hi there christoph how are you doing nice to see you again hey
-
hey like that's what i love about this game like that's what i love about this game like that's what i love about this game that you can sort of optimize things as that you can sort of optimize things as that you can sort of optimize things as just like this run you know just doing just like this run you know just doing just like this run you know just doing mephisto runs there's so many little mephisto runs there's so many little mephisto runs there's so many little tweaks you can do to make it just a tweaks you can do to make it just a tweaks you can do to make it just a little bit faster not really liking all the extra fire not really liking all the extra fire damage around me now damage around me now damage around me now but i think i'm just gonna try to but i think i'm just gonna try to but i think i'm just gonna try to ride it out see if we can make it so the mercenary is being targeted by so the mercenary is being targeted by all the fire damage all the fire damage all the fire damage and he didn't survive so let's see if we can make short work so let's see if we can make short work of him with our war cry almost down almost down and he's down oh we found a cask and he's down oh we found a cask and he's down oh we found a cask we found a unique cask because the cask is if i remember
-
because the cask is if i remember correctly correctly correctly a steel skull i think the cask is steel skull i think the cask is steel skull it's not rock stopper that's a salad so let's check out this so let's check out this item item item steel skull yeah steel skull yeah steel skull yeah there's our life leech helm and it has there's our life leech helm and it has there's our life leech helm and it has 39 magic find actually that's a nice fine 10 increased attack that's a nice fine 10 increased attack speed this is like a perfect mercenary speed this is like a perfect mercenary speed this is like a perfect mercenary helm so this is real this is why i like so this is real this is why i like running nightmare mephisto you get these running nightmare mephisto you get these running nightmare mephisto you get these low low-level uniques but they are just low low-level uniques but they are just low low-level uniques but they are just so useful at this point so that's a massive upgrade for the so that's a massive upgrade for the mercenary mercenary mercenary he will lose a little bit of resistance he will lose a little bit of resistance he will lose a little bit of resistance but he gains life leech yeah i do the yeah i do the battle cry at the beginning you can see battle cry at the beginning you can see battle cry at the beginning you can see that he has the red icon above his head that he has the red icon above his head that he has the red icon above his head mephisto that is
-
mephisto that is mephisto that is i'll show you this this run i'll show you this this run i'll show you this this run so actually i should so actually i should so actually i should take care to let my mercenary have the take care to let my mercenary have the take care to let my mercenary have the last hit last hit last hit because then he gets the because then he gets the because then he gets the my magic find and the mercenaries magic my magic find and the mercenaries magic my magic find and the mercenaries magic find combined so that's a way of getting a little bit so that's a way of getting a little bit more extra magic find on the kill which more extra magic find on the kill which more extra magic find on the kill which is great like now i'm doing the battle cry like now i'm doing the battle cry so now he has so now he has so now he has he the he the he the something red this red orb above his something red this red orb above his something red this red orb above his head head head that means i've done the battle cry come on come on attack me here you see the red above his head this here you see the red above his head this this little orb so let's go back to so let's go back to war cry and see if we can have the war cry and see if we can have the war cry and see if we can have the mercenary get the last hit now he's almost dead now he's almost dead come on kill him mercenary come on
-
come on yep yep yep he killed him so i can probably get in a couple more so i can probably get in a couple more war cries before i stop i i think he might have a personal beef i i think he might have a personal beef with mephisto that's why he likes to get with mephisto that's why he likes to get with mephisto that's why he likes to get this close to him mephisto probably killed his sister or mephisto probably killed his sister or something like that something like that something like that there's something going on there okay okay almost dead
-
hey hey here we go this is the kite shield that gives some this is the kite shield that gives some extra magic find extra magic find extra magic find however i think my however i think my however i think my um um um rhyme actually is rhyme actually is rhyme actually is just as good just as good just as good what's even better what's even better what's even better twenty percent magic finds mila bregus twenty percent magic finds mila bregus twenty percent magic finds mila bregus orb but my rhyme shield gives 25. i orb but my rhyme shield gives 25. i orb but my rhyme shield gives 25. i thought it was 30 for some reason but thought it was 30 for some reason but thought it was 30 for some reason but it's not it gives some open wounds so it would it gives some open wounds so it would have been really good on a lower level have been really good on a lower level have been really good on a lower level unfortunately it's not very useful for unfortunately it's not very useful for unfortunately it's not very useful for to us anymore but we found another staff and an orb so but we found another staff and an orb so that's a that's a that's a bit of easy gold for us yeah yeah definitely do the battlecry yeah yeah definitely do the battlecry every every run every every run every every run this time i'm this time i'm this time i'm i want to try out players three let's i want to try out players three let's i want to try out players three let's see how we how we do then see how we how we do then see how we how we do then see if we can kill him we got a hundred thousand gold for that we got a hundred thousand gold for that kill so that's great
-
kill so that's great kill so that's great i actually have almost one half million i actually have almost one half million i actually have almost one half million gold in my stash now so that is really gold in my stash now so that is really gold in my stash now so that is really starting to starting to starting to pick up so we're on players three now so we're on players three now let's see how slow this will go like with the crushing blow it's not it like with the crushing blow it's not it shouldn't make that much of a difference shouldn't make that much of a difference shouldn't make that much of a difference because you do a percentage of his because you do a percentage of his because you do a percentage of his health health health it's almost like a static field it's almost like a static field it's almost like a static field for millers for millers for millers so up until now we're doing so up until now we're doing so up until now we're doing almost the same like we have been doing almost the same like we have been doing almost the same like we have been doing it's just that when he goes down to it's just that when he goes down to it's just that when he goes down to below quarter life when i start war below quarter life when i start war below quarter life when i start war crying that might become very slow now crying that might become very slow now crying that might become very slow now but let's try it out it actually went quite okay and we
-
it actually went quite okay and we dropped a rare grim helm actually if that was unique that would have been if that was unique that would have been amazing that would have been vampire amazing that would have been vampire amazing that would have been vampire gaze got 30 got 30 30 light breaths 35 rest it's actually 30 light breaths 35 rest it's actually 30 light breaths 35 rest it's actually not a bad helmet at all okay off to the next kill okay off to the next kill but now i'll do it on players one again but now i'll do it on players one again but now i'll do it on players one again it went okay but i think it's better to it went okay but i think it's better to it went okay but i think it's better to do it on one i can't care oh rare light gauntlets
-
i can't care oh rare light gauntlets almost mage fist so i'm thinking i'm gonna do a few more so i'm thinking i'm gonna do a few more fisto runs and then i might fisto runs and then i might fisto runs and then i might keep playing through act five a little keep playing through act five a little keep playing through act five a little bit more bit more bit more maybe we'll even kill bill maybe we'll even kill bill maybe we'll even kill bill see how far we get yeah it's it's always sad to get the yeah it's it's always sad to get the the the right item but not the right the the right item but not the right the the right item but not the right quality and magefists are not very much to ask and magefists are not very much to ask for or or frost burns it's a humble request from the diablo 2 it's a humble request from the diablo 2 gods gods gods oh an experience shrine
-
yeah i'm glad we found a really yeah i'm glad we found a really an effective mephisto farming setup now it already has paid off in terms of my it already has paid off in terms of my new mercenary helm drops seem to be slowing down a little drops seem to be slowing down a little bit now but bit now but bit now but that's the nature of the game still waiting for fighter 34 by the way still waiting for fighter 34 by the way the best chill stream oh thanks a lot the best chill stream oh thanks a lot the best chill stream oh thanks a lot jordan i'm glad that you like the i'm glad that you like the the chill vibe a two to war cries a two to war cries dagger dagger dagger my spirits are much better but it's fun my spirits are much better but it's fun my spirits are much better but it's fun that it spawned with two war cries hmm it's hmm it's no use to us currently but i think i no use to us currently but i think i no use to us currently but i think i might keep it you never know what might keep it you never know what might keep it you never know what what i might want to do in the future what i might want to do in the future what i might want to do in the future and and and how long this barb will survive but i'm glad you like the

oh here's a light plate i never oh here's a light plate i never identified i think that's angelics identified i think that's angelics identified i think that's angelics that's arcanas actually pretty useless pretty useless and what is this composite bow and what is this composite bow and what is this composite bow it's rogue's bow rogue's bow one of those lower uniques rogue's bow one of those lower uniques that you never use but if you were that you never use but if you were that you never use but if you were playing on amazon you would be really playing on amazon you would be really playing on amazon you would be really happy to find it the barb had full resist and almost 1.6 the barb had full resist and almost 1.6 health points really health points really health points really and still he just one shot at him risky business risky business there you are playing there you are playing there you are playing your game and your game and your game and going happily along your going happily along your going happily along your journey and then something like that journey and then something like that journey and then something like that happens i'm glad you warned me about those i'm glad you warned me about those council members oh oh that was the wrong waypoint
-
speedom speedom unique speed another nice little lower level another nice little lower level uh spear for the mercenary uh spear for the mercenary uh spear for the mercenary we have outgrown it but we have outgrown it but we have outgrown it but it's not bad for low level not a one shot mr must have been hit by not a one shot mr must have been hit by three or four charge bolts oh yeah so three or four charge bolts oh yeah so three or four charge bolts oh yeah so you were in a group and then he died you were in a group and then he died you were in a group and then he died and then a couple of hits and then it and then a couple of hits and then it and then a couple of hits and then it was done was done was done yeah this is ruthless okay guys well i'm just going to take a okay guys well i'm just going to take a quick bathroom break quick bathroom break quick bathroom break and uh then we'll do a few more mephisto uh then we'll do a few more mephisto runs and then i think i'll keep playing runs and then i think i'll keep playing runs and then i think i'll keep playing into act five a little bit and maybe we into act five a little bit and maybe we into act five a little bit and maybe we make it to bale and kill him as well so make it to bale and kill him as well so make it to bale and kill him as well so give me a few minutes and i'll be right give me a few minutes and i'll be right give me a few minutes and i'll be right back
-
i emptied my bladder i emptied my bladder and so just cleaning up my inventory and so just cleaning up my inventory and then we'll do a couple of more mephisto then we'll do a couple of more mephisto then we'll do a couple of more mephisto kills and then we will progress a little kills and then we will progress a little kills and then we will progress a little bit into act five bit into act five bit into act five see if we can do the ancients i forgot to repair my weapon gotta i forgot to repair my weapon gotta remember to do that next run oh a full plate mail that can be
-
oh a full plate mail that can be something for the mercenary something for the mercenary something for the mercenary let's see let's see let's see fires poison res fires poison res fires poison res but pretty low so but pretty low so but pretty low so nothing good oh nice that you are from oh nice that you are from bulgaria jordan how is the winter over bulgaria jordan how is the winter over bulgaria jordan how is the winter over there is that really there is that really there is that really is that really fierce is it very cold is that really fierce is it very cold is that really fierce is it very cold there there there i am from the netherlands as well but i lived in norway for almost 10 but i lived in norway for almost 10 years so i'm used to very cold winters and i kind of miss it now and i kind of miss it now the winter the winter the winter it's almost spring here in the it's almost spring here in the it's almost spring here in the netherlands but i i miss the winter oh i forgot my oh i forgot my repair let's do that straight away repair let's do that straight away repair let's do that straight away i don't want to i don't want to i don't want to break my weapon mid fight i wonder how i do against bale
-
i wonder how i do against bale like maybe bail runs can be viable all right let's do one more and then we all right let's do one more and then we continue down continue down continue down act five see if we can kill the ancients 0 to -10 yeah that's that's a nice 0 to -10 yeah that's that's a nice temperature temperature temperature i liked it when it was i liked it when it was i liked it when it was -10 like it's even better when it's like -10 like it's even better when it's like -10 like it's even better when it's like minus 15 because then you get the really minus 15 because then you get the really minus 15 because then you get the really nice dry air nice dry air nice dry air so actually 0 to -10 is so actually 0 to -10 is so actually 0 to -10 is not the greatest it gets better below not the greatest it gets better below not the greatest it gets better below 10.
-
but apparently it's cold for march as but apparently it's cold for march as you say so you say so you say so springtime should be around the corner springtime should be around the corner springtime should be around the corner it was pretty it feels like spring here it was pretty it feels like spring here it was pretty it feels like spring here we are seeing a lot more birds and we are seeing a lot more birds and we are seeing a lot more birds and we got some nice sun the last few days try not to finish war cry this run okay try not to finish war cry this run okay do a full melee run well well there's a lot of these there's a lot of these there's a lot of these yeah i can't do it this run because yeah i can't do it this run because yeah i can't do it this run because there are there are there are so many ghoul lords around me next round we'll try to do a next round we'll try to do a full melee kill full melee kill full melee kill hey there we go unique mask okay let's do one more then and try to okay let's do one more then and try to kill him with only melee see how long it kill him with only melee see how long it kill him with only melee see how long it takes to kill him with the crushing blow
-
but the unique mask is that blackhorn's but the unique mask is that blackhorn's face or something face or something face or something or is that death mask let's see let's see the face of horror that's it the face of horror that's it the face of horror that's it 22 strength intend to all resistances 22 strength intend to all resistances 22 strength intend to all resistances this can be useful if the mercenary this can be useful if the mercenary this can be useful if the mercenary needs to wear a weapon that he needs needs to wear a weapon that he needs needs to wear a weapon that he needs some more strength for some more strength for some more strength for so this is going into the stash that's so this is going into the stash that's so this is going into the stash that's actually a pretty nice find okay so now we'll try okay so now we'll try to kill him with only the melee to kill him with only the melee to kill him with only the melee just me in a mercenary no war cry just me in a mercenary no war cry just me in a mercenary no war cry and then we'll and then we'll and then we'll make our way to the ancients to the make our way to the ancients to the make our way to the ancients to the ariat summit so the first part is always quite easy
-
so the first part is always quite easy because then the crushing blow takes because then the crushing blow takes because then the crushing blow takes away a lot of life away a lot of life away a lot of life but later it's going to just diminish but later it's going to just diminish but later it's going to just diminish very quickly very quickly very quickly like about this point it's probably like about this point it's probably like about this point it's probably going to go quite slow it's actually not too bad it's actually not too bad hey another am rune that's nice i like i am runes because we need them i like i am runes because we need them for cubing and what about this armor 22 light brass 22 light brass 200 defense it's pretty good my mercenary's current armor is better my mercenary's current armor is better but it will give me some nice gold but it will give me some nice gold but it will give me some nice gold alright so alright so alright so let's keep playing for a little bit put the put the inside back on the mercenary for inside back on the mercenary for inside back on the mercenary for starters and and wearing my spirit of course
-
but that strength room where really did but that strength room where really did the job so that was a good good call 28 degrees and geniux is jealous 28 degrees and geniux is jealous well 28 degrees that's too warm for me well 28 degrees that's too warm for me well 28 degrees that's too warm for me i've lived in norway too long i think i've lived in norway too long i think i've lived in norway too long i think i'm very much i'm very much i'm very much used to colder climates used to colder climates used to colder climates i stop functioning it when it gets above i stop functioning it when it gets above i stop functioning it when it gets above say say say 18 degrees 18 degrees 18 degrees then i just start sweating and getting then i just start sweating and getting then i just start sweating and getting very slow yeah yeah you could never use a coat like mine you could never use a coat like mine you could never use a coat like mine yeah yeah yeah and to be honest it's not even that cold and to be honest it's not even that cold and to be honest it's not even that cold in here or anything i just like wearing in here or anything i just like wearing in here or anything i just like wearing coats that's really nice then i can
-
that's really nice then i can re-roll my um re-roll my um re-roll my um inside room work actually now that i have this extra m actually now that i have this extra m roon now now now let's just keep going and see if we now let's just keep going and see if we now let's just keep going and see if we can find a better base for my inside see can find a better base for my inside see can find a better base for my inside see if we can find an upgrade for that for now i'll just for now i'll just keep going here you can see that this portal you here you can see that this portal you can see that the bridge can see that the bridge can see that the bridge is is is in going in this direction in going in this direction in going in this direction and that means that the next area also and that means that the next area also and that means that the next area also is in that direction is in that direction is in that direction so now i know i have to walk to the so now i know i have to walk to the so now i know i have to walk to the right instead of to the left right instead of to the left right instead of to the left it's a nice little trick because here in the frigid highlands i'm because here in the frigid highlands i'm not very interested in killing a lot of not very interested in killing a lot of not very interested in killing a lot of stuff stuff stuff because there's all these because there's all these because there's all these uh uh uh annoying annoying annoying teleporting teleporting teleporting i don't know i can't remember what i don't know i can't remember what i don't know i can't remember what they're called imps they're called imps they're called imps but they're just really annoying to but they're just really annoying to but they're just really annoying to fight and kill so i always prefer to just rush through

Summary
The main theme is preparing to defeat Diablo in Diablo 2 with a focus on gear and resistances, mentioning Eldritch and Mephisto runs for farming. The playthrough emphasizes building a character with full resistances, a Spirit sword, and stealth armor, highlighting the need for more resistances for Hell difficulty, potentially through a Smoke rune word or a Skin of the Viper Magi. The conclusion is to proceed cautiously through the Chaos Sanctuary, managing mana and focusing on defeating Doom Knights, with plans to experiment with dual Spirit swords for farming and character build optimization.
