Holy moly! In this session I decided to try out some different skills, experimenting some (Ground Slam + Multistrike, then later on Blasphemy + Warlord's Mark and Static Strike + Multistrike). And then I went ahead and farmed for a bit in order to test them out, after which I worked on some more of the Act IV questline. I guess I didn't test these out enough. :\ https://youtu.be/J4Qhe9ACoxQ <<< Piety, The Abomination fight https://youtu.be/ogWIut2Wk6k <<< Shavronne fight (This video might get deleted if Youtube flags it for copyright, as I forgot to kill the vinyl music before the fight) And how did I make it out alive? Gotta be these: If not for the instant recovery mod, I'd have been dead a long time ago, one thing I definitely got right! lol Sooo, that's it on that. Here's the records I played today: Jimi Hendrix - Electric Ladyland Metallica - Ride the Lightning Devo - Shout So, after getting (try not to laugh) shell shocked from the fights, it's time to call it a night. I might be on later today, we'll see. Until then, take care and thanks for reading/watching. I appreciate it. ;] https://www.twitch.tv/videos/230843644 |

This morning I farmed for a bit, and got my marauder to level 47. Also, I created a shadow character this morning as well, wanting to play a class that can utilize claws and chaos damage, just for something different. https://youtu.be/SpPvdFdexpc <<< Trying out the class. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well, for starters. Props to the GGG guys for making it so that if the game unexpectedly crashes, you're put back in town. The only ARPG/MMO I know of that does this. Comes in handy when your computer decides to restart right out of the blue (a big problem recently). (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻ Worked on my shadow some, getting him from level 4 to 16, quite a jump! I also completed Act I as well and will be starting on Act II next time I play. https://youtu.be/JLOaB6UN6D8 <<< Brutus fight https://youtu.be/5ko7C89UETA <<< Merveil fight So far I like my shadow class. A bit caster-ey for my taste (Ancestor's Call and Melee Splash are red gems, sadly), but there's nothing like watching a whole bunch of monsters bearing down on you,...... then all of a sudden dropping dead! Not as noisy as Glacial Hammer/Infernal Blow as well. Okay, and here's all the records I played today: Pink Floyd - Atom Heart Mother Buffalo Springfield - Buffalo Springfield Again Herbie Hancock - Head Hunters Miles Davis - Bitches Brew Okay, time to call it a night. I might be on again later on, or I might stream some Pinball Arcade instead. We'll see (on my nights off it's usually up in the air what I do). Until then, take care, and thanks for reading/watching. ;] https://www.twitch.tv/videos/231160637 <<< Before the sudden restart https://www.twitch.tv/videos/231203030 <<< After the sudden restart |

A couple days ago I tried streaming this game on Youtube, with meh results. https://youtu.be/VNV3kCpwrJs Buuut as for today, just made some decent progress on my shadow, going from level 19 to 22 and getting as far in Act II as the part where you get Maligaro's Spike. I also got a real lucky drop that allows me to do some marauder-style melee now: So tomorrow it'll be the same as today, just keep chugging along on the questline. Really liking shadow right now, although having green+red+red sockets are a "requirement" to make it so. And here's the records I played today: Black Sabbath - Vol. 4 Rush - 2112 Okay, have to get ready for work now. I owe, I owe, so off to work I go *sigh*. Thanks for reading, and have a good day/night. ;] https://www.twitch.tv/videos/231800445 Last edited by Joe__Schmoe on Feb 22, 2018, 10:03:03 PM

Good session, didn't lose my mic or anything. Otherwise I just trudged along on the Act II questline, and got to the Vaal Ruins. And for tomorrow, more of the same. I might also be on longer too, as I might be calling in tomorrow, as we're supposed to be getting ~10 inches of snow on Saturday. Not even gonna bother trying to drive in that, despite my job being only half a mile away. No thanks. But aside from that, here's the records I played today: Motorhead - Self-Titled Debut (my "make-up" album, since you couldn't hear it at all yesterday) Roky Erikson - The Evil One Okay, have to get ready for work. Take care and thanks for reading. ;] https://www.twitch.tv/videos/232148392 |

Off-stream this morning I played for about an hour and made it to where the sky turns black, and went from level 24 to level 25. And got a rather lucky drop as well: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So, fast forward to this evening. I got in a good session today, going from level 25 to 32, and getting from act II to Act III, where you get to fight (lol) ribbons. https://youtu.be/78rnuQogpbk <<< Vaal Oversoul fight I also found another special drop (but not sure if the fire/cold damage buffs work with Herald of Ash/Ice) again. Some extreme luck: I did end up calling in to work, due to having ~3 inches of snow on the ground when I woke up, and it's only begun (supposed to have 6-10 overnight). Not to mention I must've lifted and/or slept wrong, since from my right butt to my right lower back was hurting, so best to play it safe (I work a manual labor/heavy lifting job). But for tomorrow I'll probably just keep plugging away at the storyline. I have to work tomorrow, so I won't be achieving much. And with that here's all the records I played today: Metallica - Live From The Palladium '86 Frank Zappa - We're Only in it for the Money Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti The Residents - Eskimo Okay, gonna call it a night. I might be on later, we'll see. But until then, take care and thanks for reading/watching. ;] https://www.twitch.tv/videos/232531235 |

Off-stream this morning I played for about an hour, and got as far as meeting Lady Dialla, as well as advancing from level 32 to level 33. Trying to test things out after installing a new driver for my graphics card. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fun-filled session today. At least two near-death experiences - one when fighting Gravicious and the other when fighting the Brutus rogue exile - great way to wake up after being half asleep when I started streaming lol. I went from level 33 to 34 and made it as far as just before the Piety fight, after which I figured discretion the better part of valor and just went back to town and worked on logistical stuff the rest of the session. Mucho upgrading to do! Anyway, here's what I played: Prince - For You The Sting - Movie Soundtrack Okay, have to get ready for work. Take care and thanks for reading. ;] https://www.twitch.tv/videos/232892905 |

This time I switched back to my marauder, missing its straight-up melee playstyle, and not having to ranged attack stuff like I do on my shadow (he can melee, but not as effective as marauder can. Can't really use red gems - especially Multistrike, Vitality, Life gain/Life leech on hit - that well either, due to his low strength). I basically went with a Ground Slam and Sunder build, as well as focusing on life leech. Seemed to help out a lot with the two boss fights I had: https://youtu.be/AgYtb8BzEIc <<< Doedre Darktongue fight https://youtu.be/sKl4QrAKWDQ <<< Maligaro fight I'm holding off on the Malachai fight though, until I watch a video or two in order to get an idea of what I'm up against. I'm also considering creating a duelist character. If I do, he'd be a dual-wielder focusing on bleed damage, kind of a holdover from the shadow class. I'm starting to like that DoT damage. >:] And with that, here's the records I played today (had to cut the session short since I was starting to feel sleepy. Why, despite the fact that I got enough sleep, I don't know.) Pink Floyd - Ummagumma John Coltrane - A Love Supreme The Golden Era of Dixieland Jazz, 1887-1937 Okay, gonna do it for me. Most likely I'll have to lay down. As for later, I don't know if I'll be on anytime soon. Like always, it's up in the air. But aside from that, thanks for taking the time to read/watch my stuff. It means a lot. Take care. ;] https://www.twitch.tv/videos/233202645 |

Earlier this morning I tried streaming on Youtube. I played my shadow character, and finally got a Blasphemy and Efficacy gem (combined with Despair and Contagion, respectively). So now the build is becoming more cohesive now, and I don't have to range attack as much (still need lots of resists though). https://youtu.be/jY4LybCg1Eo --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As for this evening's stream, I worked on my marauder, eventually beating Malachai to get past Act IV: https://youtu.be/Re4Zn6nQlKg <<< Malachai fight After that, just worked on the Act V questline, up to the point where you have to get to the Templar Courts. For tomorrow it'll probably be more of the same, continuing on with Act IV, possibly playing shadow and/or creating a new duelist as well. And here's the vinyls I played today: Kraftwerk - Ralf & Florian Jethro Tull - Benefit Thin Lizzy - Self-Titled Debut Okay, gonna call it a night. I'll probably veg out and probably get a nap in at some point. I might try to stream again later, we'll see. Until then, take care and thanks for reading/watching. ;] https://www.twitch.tv/videos/233539010 |

Earlier this morning I created a duelist character. He's going to be a dual-wielder and utilizing bleed and poison damage. So I'll probably be playing this guy a while now. https://youtu.be/JJTHJ0NzUtc <<< Starting him off. https://youtu.be/PaAcOruGRTw <<< My node pathing (1:53, missed a node because i are wetodid) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Very late stream today. I had a family thingy I had to attend, and didn't get back until 9:30 pm. For the evening stream, I just worked on my duelist, and got him to level 14 and I'm almost at the end of Act I. https://youtu.be/BeJnohPK6mM <<< Brutus fight Tomorrow my work week starts back up, so it's back to just chipping away on my duelist for 1-2 hours at a time. And here's what I played today: White Stripes - Self-Titled Debut Frankie Yankovic & His Yanks (no relation to weird Al) - Polka Time! Thchaikovsky - 1812 Overture and other filler tunes Jethro Tull - Aqualung Okay, gonna call it good. Take care and thanks for reading/watching. ;] https://www.twitch.tv/videos/233934739 |

March 1, 2018.
Throughout various times of the day off-stream I was playing my duelist and my shadow. Also, I discovered a loot filter that I'm trying out as well, seeing how well that goes. https://youtu.be/fGAoeelWDPs <<< Piety fight (shadow) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well, for the evening stream, I lost my shadow character. I tried fighting Dominus and got my ass handed to me in a high hat! Note to self: Cap resists beforehand! https://youtu.be/2I_-8XU9grM <<< Dominus fight After the loss, I switched over to my duelist, and worked on him some. I got past Act I, and am now working on Act II. So that'll be on the current agenda for tomorrow. https://youtu.be/f_FI6h9VQyg <<< Merveil fight And here's the records I played today: Joe Walsh - The Smoker You Drink, the Player You Get Miles Davis - Kind of Blue Okay, have to get ready for work and lick my wounds after my shadow death. Take care and thanks for reading/watching. I appreciate it. ;] https://www.twitch.tv/videos/234201132 |
