Happy Eternal Embers day!

Now that I don't have to hide my activity, I can jump back into this.
Feel free to list as dead, all my existing "active" characters, because I did some cleaning and deleted almost 40 characters from my roster, including all of those :D


And now, for my next trick: character "Expose", level 1 Helos, no mastery selected yet because I have to beat the new expansion and get the achievements before I do anything else :)

Expose: level 17 Rogue, Kairatos Bluff Untwinked (so far)

Poison got her to level 13, then respecced everything into traps.
Forgot to start screenshotting until I reached Arachne :|

Added to the leaderboard and good luck with her. 

Need to get back into the challenges myself, but testing this and then testing that then testing something else .... no time!  :o

Going to give this another go, though heaven help us all if we get to Eternal Embers Naked! 

Anyway, that's a LONG way down the road for me.  Trying Again is an L11 Illusionist and at the Halcyon Coast atm.

Well, I mightve forgotten a screenshot or two, and they're definitely out of any coherent order. But Expose is past Typhon! Now a level 31 Brigand, just arrived in Soronis and ready to panic while fighting Lamias. Didn't have many close calls with bosses, but at least one Tigerman near the entrance to Chang'an gave me a fright. Heard the low health bell twice before I could run far enough to break his pursuit distance. Someone in voice chat with me was saying "more traps, more traps" and I responded "I HAVE TO STOP RUNNING TO DROP ONE" Fun times.

Update 4 hours later: Dead. Level 35 Brigand in Aneslasia. One of the 5 quest Siege Striders of all things. I took out 3 of them, but as the 4th was spraying balls around, I walked over two. Never stood a chance.
Side note, I think Brigand might be more fun than Illusionist. The pierce modifier of ArtOfTheHunt, the pierce debuff of Study Prey, the Ensnare net as a panic button, the increased healing of Herbal Remedy... Eventually I wanted to add the pierce and %HP modifers to CallOfTheHunt...
But the strategy that worked so well, dropped 3 traps next to myself, then spam Study Prey on anything around. It's the perfect aggro puller, and traps shred them.
I'm starting a new one with the same build, I have to try this again.

1cec0ld, why do you have scrolls in your hotbar? Using them is not allowed.  ;)
