Maldar, the Magnificent
#5
MongoJerry,Sep 13 2003, 03:49 AM Wrote:He's going to abide by the following rules:

3. He must get every waypoint and quest in game order.
4. He may only kill those monsters whose deaths are necessary to fulfill the quests.
5. He may not use any cross-class skills, except that he can use a staff of Teleport in the Maggot Lair (where it would be impossible to travel otherwise without killing things).
A pity about rule #2, as so few waypoints and quests are actually needed in order to kill the 3 prime evils. As an example, as v1.10s stands, even solo you don't need to kill the summoner (he's a human, how could you kill him in good conscience?!) to progress (by killing duriel) as you can say "hello" to him as you touch his tome and go through his red portal to the canyon (where you can pick up the waypoint). You will not, however, be able to return from town via Town Portal to the Canyon or Tombs.

A pity about #5, as Telekinesis doesn't have much danger of killing anything in hell but could probably be used to spare lives, such as your Baal's minions (Colenzo and Achmel) dilemma.

Your Clay Golem will potentially cause damage to living beings. In rare cases (weenies like maggot young perhaps) he might dishonor you by actually killing something. What you need is a Decoy.

Very clever build/theme, especially with the new synergies in the Bone line (imagine my surprise in v1.10beta1 when I imported my bone prision build necro and saw he was even more of a god than before).

With pumped Leap, and howl, taunt and grim ward to control and bypass crowds, I imagine a barb could live with the same restrictions (perhaps even without teleport). But the use of Bone Spirit as a ranged attack, which can be focused on a target without danger to others, is a nice touch.

However, because you have bone wall, teleport and town portal, it seems to me you are enpowered and therefore under moral obligation to pied piper all the monsters out of the Chaos Sanctuary, sealing it with a bone wall, teleporting to the River of Flame waypoint and re-entering the sanctuary via Town Portal. This presumably prevents their unfortunate death due to your action of killing (the 3 SUs) to release Diablo. (Wow, what incredible dedication to a moral stance). Of course, never having tried anything so crazy, I don't know if it's possible.

Good luck to Maldar!
