You can find a similar Skorn with around 300 strength instead (HUGE damage boost), for about 6-8 million.

So if you reckon you can get 20 million for your one, do it, and buy a strength Skorn instead. :D

I'll take a peek again tonight and see whats up

Rather look for high STR rings then, the increase in STR will give you extra armour at 1 armour point per 1 point of STR. So gaining +100 STR is the same as gaining +100 Armour, but with the added benefit of gaining you DPS (I'm pretty sure you're a barb).

I have found that for pure dps increases, at some point getting just more strenght (primary stat) just does not compare to increasing your actual base damage. It is the old conundrum of 1000% increase vs 1010% increase, where upgrading your base value has much more direct impact. It is all about balance of stats, and increasing the right ones at the right time.

On a seperate note, who's up for key farming tonight and then if we get enough keys/infernal plans, some uber farming? I have 1 infernal machine left, 2 Act III keys, but I need more Act I and Act II/IV keys.

Myself and Techead for shizzle!! I have 1 IM, Tech has 2 and I'm also short a key or two so we can do some serious runs...

Played with a random CM wizard earlier on - It was awesome, me and him decimated MP10, I found about 7 legs, and got 1.5 PL's (@74) in in about 2 hours.

Enjoyed jamming at MP10 last night - TBH, I'm finding that if I can't run at MP10 it's almost not worth playing unless specifically doing ubers or helping out with levelling - the downside to this is I don't output enough damage to run MP10 solo - I survive okay, but kill too slowly.

Enjoying my new skill setup - Stun.Bola; Marked for Death with 1% LS (Death Toll); High Velocity.Rapid Fire, Shield Turret.

Very nice for group play.

I cannot run @ MP10 solo, elites just totally **** me up, given a certain combo of affixes, and if they are moving, well, Cloud of bats is just about useless. :D

Solo MP 8, on the other hand is absolute piss, it's amazing the difference between the two.

At the end of the day, I find public MP 10 at this stage is the way to go, for XP and legs.

I cannot wait to hit PL100, so I can pop a life gem in my helm!

I've seen CoB WD videos, soloing MP 10, doing crits of 12 million.

That is my ultimate goal, will be ****ing sweet. :D

Did some major tweaking with the barb last night before and after some uber runs. After the uber runs, I jumped into MP3 just to see how my new gear and skills work out and I decimated it, so will be trying out MP4 now to see how that goes.

Best thing is to get someone to lend you a nice ruby for your helm, and rush you through - You could get to 60 in an hour or three.

I'd happily do it, but I'm not online again until Monday probably.

Add me to your list Synack#2596 and I'll run you through. Do you have a Hellfire ring? If you not we should see if we can get you a cain's set + socket helm with a ruby in it.

Pity, I just sold my Cain's Set on the AH two days ago - Listed them for 1000, and they all sold for over 100K. Which is peanuts, but for some reason people want them, I guess.

I think my main PC just gave up the ghost :( Will leave it off for a while and see if it just needed a rest, but I have my doubts. Sucks cause I just made a 5mil sale and was going to do some nice gearing for my barb when it happened. :(

I think it's the gfx card. When it started going wonkey, I was in game and the game kinda kept it's picture, but went super pixelated with diagonal lines running across the screen. I thought it was just the game, cause it seemed okay when I quit the game, but then after a reboot and a restart of the game, when it happened again and I was back in windows, it was making pixelated lines there too. After another reboot it was even doing through the status screens pre-windows boot up, but now windows won't even start up, just goes into a infinite restart loop after seeing the windows loading bar.

I'm gonna get hold of a friend and see if he maybe has a old gfx card lying around I can test with and maybe use for a while, but I'm not buying a new one as I'm pretty much going to be selling off everything I own as I'm moving to Canada, visa pending as I got a job there, so I'm def not going to be buying new hardware now.

Good luck with your pending Visa. Guess that can take some time. Nice place to move to, I just would not be able to stand the weather all year round ;)

I have friends living in Vancouver - they enjoy everything except for the cold. Then again, they have central heating

I'll also have a look to see if I have an old gfx card lying around.
