Hello to one and all!

Level 99 is a goal I have set for myself. One I will try to accomplish, no matter what.

I've been playing since the start (mainly HC) and the highest char I ever got was a lvl 90 HC sorc.
Not trying to put you off, but I would suggest that you try out at least a couple builds of each available character before you decide to push one or more to lvl 99. It will help you learn which ones are viable to do so within a reasonable time, and will help you gather the equipment. Note also that the skills that are most helpful to get from lvl 85-99 are not necessarily those that get you to Hell the fastest.
