Jan 14: One-week HC Race

Stayed top 10-20 and #1 Marauder for most of the race and then my net crapped out to the point that I couldn't be competitive anymore. Had tons of fun when I could compete and met a lot of cool people.

No real notable gear aside from a GG elemental damage belt.

Have fun with the rest of the race.

SO what kind of build is this supposed to be exactly? LA Elemental Bow I assume?

Btw anyone in top50 care to share that he's using a melee build? Just curious?
Did that douche die that spammed when Grynwald died?

Nm found that he died, R___H____O________X was it. So happy he died :D

My Goal in One-Week-Race is to get into top 100 which is doable but actually quiet hard if u play like 3 hours a day because the amout of no-lifers going at it like maniacs seems to be increasing... Sleep like 4 hours and do nothing but grinding maps for days is nothing I wanna do.

But anyways was quiet some fun. Got 1-shot by vaal on Merciless with my 1st Melee Char. Did do pretty well for a solo racer I think. Learned that 13k armor and 80fireres does still lead to around 2,4k to 2,5k by that Melee-Vall-Hit. (Unfortunally I only had 2,3k LOL)
The competition in this race is completely insane, i lost my 20 spot and am 30 million behind because i slept 3 hours and ate..
GG, I'm an idiot, wanted to rush and died in desync on the last day. Didn't have chance for demigod anyway but wanted to play till the end. Didn't reach lvl 80 too, this was a small goal for me also and was not far from it.

Played the shitty spark totem. It is pretty boring to play and only OP because of sparks hitting ten times in 1 sec. But I'm happy I tried it, it's not going to work well after nerf. Without additional spell as main attack the gameplay will be too boring and stupid during soloing. With freezing pulse and diamond flask I could kill bosses and resistant mobs without waiting on totems.

I focused a bit on support with detonate dead and got 3 curses with passive and Daedre's Damning. I don't know why more people don't take double curses, especially for groups. Even for soloing having elemental weakness + conductivity makes it easy to do damage without investing in too much damage passives, and then there is enfeeble + temp chains to make mobs do nothing.

Insane competition, but if anything this week race shows how much group playing trivializes content right now. IDK how much that will be improved in OB (watched kripp stream some map gameplay and some of it can get pretty hard even in groups, but still there were no dual totems or minion intensive builds).

I understand GGG has to provide some incentive for group playing, but I wonder if it's too high right now, as you get a considerable boost both in levelling and in survivability. Don't know what could be done to make group playing a bit more dangerous w/o relying too much in cheese stuff (like outright boosting mobs damage so you can get easily onehit). I guess, it's a matter of adding new dangerous mobs/reworking old ones and improving their routines and AI, so not an easy task.

10% cast/attack/movement speed per additionnal players D:
make it happen !
I was wrong he was duel, account atmotion tv has it on recording him even saying it.
