Challenges (all versions of the game) / Re: The Xmax Hardcore Challenge
« on: 21 October 2021, 12:43:23 »Let's say you do it untwinked... What are you going to do until you get all these items? You ain't going to get that +3 Stonebinders until Legendary (if you survive until then), and good luck farming that spear on an untwinked character - the damn thing simply doesn't drop. I've spend days farming for it, and i feel like i'll never get it. And i don't think it will be cheap to get it from gambled orbs. You have to get incredibly lucky, or go broke trying.You're right, it is a very rare drop and i would have to collect a ton of gold to even have a reasonable chance. There is however an easier to get alternative which is Blue Dragon Scales... But anyway, icesharder paladin would not be that difficult (difficult, but there are harder classes) to develop even without things that this build relies on.
If i try untwinked, in opposite to this run, i will do it as difficult as possible. No potion runs are very impressive to me, but without Nature/Spirit/Dream mastery, they can be absolute hell. Maybe untwinked Magician using stone form to regenerate health.
I also want to say that with Storm, Spell Breaker, not Squall, is the best tool for progress. Might be actually best of all masteries in that regard. Low recharge, high radius, easy to cast and good damage to kill lot of monsters in the beginning. You will also be able to kill monsters that are more dangerous easier because they have energy bar.
and there's a comment in there that said all versions of Xmax still have a problem with the quest in Act 2. Seen nothing about a problem with the 3 Sisters quest or the flag one.
I didn't have any problem except that Nebekhau was missing first time. I just reloaded the game (with xmax) and then they were there.
