Anatta has received consciousness and has arisen into his next cycle of rebirth. Anatta is a Softcore, 1.05b Barbarian that will be specializing in Swords. He is part of a completely new Era which will be called "Turning of the Wheel". For this Era, all of these characters will follow the following rules:
- Softcore
- Shared Stash (via TCP/IP)
- No "Dancing of the Souls"
- Singling
I'll still be making Hardcore characters in the future, but will be focusing on Softcore for a while now. I'm also going to finally try and have a stable group of characters that I actually keep for 6-12 months, which I've basically never done (maybe back in 2003 on Battle.net lol, if I have I can't really remember at this point). So I'll need to get used to keeping characters for that long, but I think after all of my patch explorations over the past 11 years, I may be finally ready for some stability lol.
At the moment Anatta finished A1 and is starting A2. He also found several set items in A1 (Hsaru's Shield, Infernal Cap), so it has been a good start so far. Excited to see where the round takes him.
Now I'm wishing we had a "fire" reaction. I'll need to get some additional reactions added to the forums. xD
This is awesome @fearedbliss . I hope this era is a fruitful one for you.
May Anatta's stash always be full of fatty lewts ~ may he pass on many precious rares to his progenitors ~ and cursed be any foes that dare to stand in his way.
Anatta has finished A2, currently level 18 in A3 Normal. I started off by immediately finding a really nice Brutal sword, my DPS doubled. I've put screenshots of the Brutal sword and you can also see the before and after damage. Even stone skin monsters were dying relatively quickly even without elemental damage. My Sword Mastery is currently level 10 and I crit relatively frequently. I'm looking forward to having level 20 SM. However, Since I was reaching level 18 before, I started putting points in other skills so I can get Battle Cry, and Concentrate. I still need to put a point in Leap Attack and Iron Skin, and I'm strongly considering maxing out Leap Attack as one of my core skills. Leaping won't necessarily be the primary attack but it will definitely be used, especially when I want to take specific enemies out (Lord de Seis and other CS Super Uniques are good candidates). On another note, with my Infernal Cap and a Vulpine Amulet I found, I currently have 30% dmg going to mana lol. As for Duriel, it dropped a Skull Splitter Unique weapon ;D, can be a bit useful for twinking.
