[1.09b] Slayer Ananda's Path of Purification (Paladin) [Level 28 | A1 NM | Retired]

[fearedbliss]

Ananda, come my child. It it time for another birth, another round of suffering.. unfortunately.

Ananda has awaken in 1.09b, has currently finished A1. He is currently in A2 and has killed Radament, retrieved cube, and staff.

The rules for this round are simple:

- Singling
- Softcore Expansion
- Muling and twinking is allowed.
- No Dancing of the Souls Trick.

I'll be posting updates and videos as I progress, they can be found here.

After many years of time traveling and playing all of the major versions (excluding 1.00 which given I've played 1.05b a good amount, and have read and seen other people play 1.00, I can already basically tell how 1.00 is like), I'm coming back to my favorite three versions, 1.05b, 1.09b, and 1.10. I already have some names and plans for characters in 1.05b (Classic) and 1.09b (Expansion). One day I will definitely come back and play some characters in my childhood patch on 1.10, but I'm still not ready to go back to 1.10 yet. So the focus will be on 1.05b and 1.09b for now.

Below are some images of gear I've found so far in A1 and up to where I'm currently at in Act 2 Norm.

Alright, so lots of progress. I've beaten Normal, did all quests in Normal (but haven't redeemed my Larzuk/Charsi/Anya/etc rewards), and got the skill point from A1 NM DoE. I'm currently level 28 so 1 level above my 1.07 Paladin. Now we can chill and slowly refine stuff again. I'm glad to be feeling a bit more stable now. In the future I'll want to make those 1.05b (and eventually 1.10 chars again), but for now will chill on 1.09b and 1.05b. I'm excited. Attached are screenshots from A3-A5. The videos are also available at the link in the OP.
