Subject description: nl to ladder
 

Well when i was consdering switching from nl to ladder i figured out a good way to start off mf and "cheap" with the help of many others so i thought id put all the research togethor

Easiest char id say light sorc will get explained later

For first mfer make a sorc main reason teleport cuz enigma will cost ya a fortune so easy to get around.

way to lvl u all should know but just to throw it in
trist 1-15
tomb 15-20 some ppl go to 24 i find a waste
cows 20-24
ancients 24-25
baal 25-40
then nm cow if you want

ok now that were in nm you will need gear ppl told me rune words are your best freind when starting fresh Razz get ready for alot of countess runs

try and get a spirit sword nice mana boost and 2 to all skills and fcr nice cuz your a sorc. Ryhme shield for cnb and other mods. Stealth body prob your best friend for a while fcr , frw, regen mana , perfect id say as a starter Very Happy helmet lore just for a +1 skills.

Now light sorc over others my personal opinion 1 fairly nice dmg

chain lightening handy little move it will clear out monsters fairly quick and well still hurting the main boss once room cleared lightening away fairly nice dmg and light sorc also has thunderstorm 100 dmg here and there never hurt but i wouldnt bother with energy shield u wont have the mana to spare. And well i usually do cows to look for charms amulets and what ever else i can find and a great way to get cash for gambling and it is really impossible for u to kill king unless you have a merc.

now the actual mf part u dont need any mf on your gear when some ppl brag about have that 500 mf we duelers just dont need it all you are going to do is glitched andy and cows. Well if you wanted to stop by baal and diablo go ahead and actually i always kill the council cuz they usually drop rares.

any thoughts? suggestions?

i pretty much 100% agree,, i was just about to write something like this up

light sorc
focus on 2 things, leveling and rune stuff

1) RUSH! level to 40-45 in normal asap
get to act 2 instantly. combat merc (regen) and load him up
gather wands/orb/head/druid things,, and try to get gold and gamble some rare weapon/armor for merc, he needs leach, fast strong weapon and some def.

player 8 games
(go for as much gold/blue mobs as possible, try not to waste any time on normal mobs)

1-3 cold plains
4-7 stony, trist + dark wood
8-12 black marsh + tower/countess clearing (many gold/blue mobs in there)
13-14 far oasis/viper temple
15-17 canyon+tomb
18-20 (act 3 trav runs and go backwards and clean the two ruined fane places for the uniques)
21-24 cows norm
25 - 45 baal norm

(do the soldier quest act5)
collect 1 or 2 chip topaz incase u need to cube 3 thuls to amn.

2) stealth armor (tal eth)
get to NM countes runs and gather runes

3) lore helm (ort sol)
4) make a spirit sword asap
5) insight on merc asap
6) rhyme shield

get to NM baal and gltich drop him along with NM andy runs to start building some unique/sets

NM forge, (if u get pul TRY to trade to get cheap vipermagi)

get to lvl 75+ and goto hell for currency

(start getting blizzard as 2nd element)

hell andy bug
hell countess runs (200 of em for currency, NO JOKE)

i have done some math concerning Hell countess;
http://forums.diii.net/showthread.php?t=681249

Adding up........ total [value of] 478,294 ko runes in 1million runs
so about 1.5 lums each kill avg

your trying to score a few lum-um

once u have your spirit/insight/rhyme/lore, ignore anything under ith imo
keep sheal, hels and dols and gather chips to cube them into Io's
dont cube antying above IO.

lums will trade for 13-15 life sc's from pubs, sometimes the ko or fal is needed, and lems will certainly score a decent mana/15 sc from them..

get hell forge and hope its ist+

after u get some good currecny going and started getting some LLD sc's together
make a cold sorc and do upto NM only. leave here in NM
make sure u bug andy at normal and nm as well.
keep her for Normal cow opening, bugged norm and nm andy and glitch nm baal drops.


thigns to help leveling 3-20 easy, pick up along the way for use latter.

4os flail with +20 psn jewels or flawed emerald
hsarus boots/belt extra pelta (or hsarus shield as well)
extra deaths combo
+3 and +5str charms for lvl leveling w/o stats spending
+3 and +5dex for blocking during level w/o stat spending
nice lvl 5 GC's 27ar/10life yipeee!
lvl 6 SC's 4ar/6psn woot!
3os mask with +20psn jewels (or cheapo dmg jewels)
3os breast plate with +20psn jewels (or cheapo dmg jewels)
nagles,
angelics (if your lucky)
lvl 3 rings with ar/str/dex

ral+tal+ort for 5 mins of work for a teleporter
invaluable pickup for poor-ass new ladder climbing

obviously the better way to do this is get a couple freebies from lld101'ers Smile

edit.. ,<smack head> dont forget 3os bow with tir tal amn for -15% vendor prices on your lvl 42 gambler.
