Had a nice session with werries atech and altair on HC. No deaths to report but atech came mighty close.

How far did you guys go in act 3?

Heh, thanks guys.

Man, I came soooooo close to a horrible squishy end.

Made it to Stonefort and then I chickened out.

Thanks Altair for the gold and shield and werries and carbon for the carry- I went up 7 levels with the group, then played Act 1 on MP10 and went up another level. Havent actually finished Act 1 - was dragged to Act 3 by the others.

Oh, and great tip on selling essences - sells like the clappers.

Here's how MF works, the more MF you have the higher the quality of the item will be.
Quality in the context refers to number of affixes.

Blue items -> 2-3
Rare -> 4 -6
Legendary/Set items -> 7

MF doesn't increase the amount of items drop, monster power might though but it's a separate variable.
Every item that drops, makes this roll for quality(Number of affixes), first it makes a roll to check if it's legendary. If it has a 0.001 percent chance to be legendary then if you have 200MF it becomes 0.003 (Note that 100 MF is 200%). Also each mob might have a different chance.
If the roll for legendary fails, it then rolls for 6 affix downto a white.

So high MF increases likely hood of finding not only Legendaries, but also 5-6 affix rares.
Low MF means your likely to find more whites/blues/rares with low number of affixes.

Sinbad - put rubies into your weapons of your lvl 18 HC barb, they give way more DPS then emeralds in the early stages

Haha, then I can finally empty my stash, have 3 or 4 items I was keeping for you.

Cohen is getting there :-D dispatched ghom in about 3 seconds .level 27 now... life steal skills plus cleave/rupture plus some decent weapons makes for a tank of note. Switch to frenzy for the bosses and drop an earth quake at their feet, thanks for playing :-D
I'm sure it's not the best way of doing things but it's bloody satisfying

And Second HC monk bites the dust, again at around level 32... This time 5k health to 0 in less than 1 Sec, 4 arcane sentries dropped below my feet in a doorway :( Not even enough time to press my get-out-of-jail-free skill....
Doubled the monk's HP from the first monk, but you need a lot more than just HP, it seems... And no Resist all gear for level 30-40 of note.

Got HC normal now down to an art, leveled the last monk to 30 in under 5 hours (no boosting). My bane is still Nightmare difficulty (at least with the monk, since my barb is hacking and slashing through act 2 Nightmare just fine).
