The Tyrael Challenge, for those who missed the thread, is to kill
Duriel at the lowest possible clvl, with no help from other chars, and
without repeating any areas. HC of course.
I tried a barb and got trapped in the Jail and killed while still
level 1. So I tried another one, leveling to 6 just before entering
the Barracks so he would have Leap. That worked much better. He died
on Maggot Lair 2, still level 6. The problem was that he could not
Leap over the monsters in certain areas, and got trapped and killed
again. I think the Maggot Lair is so tight, the monsters can occupy
all available spaces up to the level 1 Leap radius. Ny feeling is
that if a barb can do the Maggot Lair without leveling to 7, he can
probably kill Duriel while still level 6.
My Tyrael runner had found Death's gloves, so Andy was not an issue:
with antidote pots, his PR was 85. Money was not a problem either: he
had over 20K when he arrived in Lut, and increased that to 30K before
he died. Leveling from 3 (gained in the Den) to 6 by killing mainly
bosses and champs for their, gold, pots and other items was quite
lucrative.
Anyone got through the Maggot Lair soloing at low clvl in HC? Any
tips? Any ideas for Tyrael running with any clas but a barb?
