Saris November 12, 2007 Share Saris Member November 12, 2007 (edited) Wow . . . I so rescind my earlier comment. Hopping into nightmare at first was easy, but after beating up Shulgoth again, I found myself getting violated in every known way by mobs that were suddenly 5-7+ levels above me. My guardian (supposedly overpowered) reached the same level and goes down just as bad. Those giant zombie monsters with the spike balls for hands --- there's like 6-7 of them in a group now, and when they all fire at you at once, if the first one hits and stuns you, well, the following six will take you from full health to 0, end of story. Don't matter how great your build is, how great your gear is, you're gonna die. So, I just grinded tonight from level 32 to 35 on my marksman by running Shulgoth over and over, until I got a unique machine pistol that does 130dmg at 600 rounds/min (that's twice as fast as the standard rifle and its one-handed[my other hand does 160 at 300 rounds/min). I ran back towards charing cross station and I can now mow everything down, unless they get lucky, like in a situation as described above. The only difference is - it's not doing anything. My exp bar refuses to move! At this point, I'm questioning whether or not nightmare is worth doing seeing how there is no end game. My latest skills+my awesome gun mods+owning everything sight is fun, but not when I'm getting nothing out of it. I can't emphasize enough what a wall this is - you tend not to notice while doing the first few quests because they're easy, but after the end of act 1, you'll realize you've gained 1-1.5 levels. There's 5 more acts to go and by the end of it, the mobs will be level 50. If you plan to play this far, run Shulgoth. Run him until you're wearing nothing but legendary and are level 36, no more, no less. Cause I forgot to mention, before logging off tonight, that I made it to Death Sewers again . . . I was killed just by the zombies. Edited November 12, 2007 by Saris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymo November 12, 2007 Share anonymo Member November 12, 2007 Saris...you're not playing alone are you? Just have to check, because the game was designed as a team game and even the devs have said that it's next to impossible to get through hardcore alone (I mean, all the bonuses you get for playing in a party pretty much make this game pointless to play alone) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saris November 12, 2007 Share Saris Member November 12, 2007 I play with my brother sometimes, sometimes I auto party. It's not that the game is hard, I took another shot at it and made it all the way to the Wall, where you have to command the Fist. I was still level 35, killing demons at level 43 - that does nothing for exp. I'm going to try auto-partying right now while there's more people on to see if I can get in a decent group that's just grinding - I'm sure there are many Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[LaW]Maverick November 13, 2007 Author Share [LaW]Maverick Member November 13, 2007 2 questions: 1.) When we gonna get together and play? 2.) Do you guys get a message that randomly pops up that says "Extreme" "You don't have a waypoint far enough to transport here?" I don't know what it means, but it says something like that.....anyone?

Unclean November 13, 2007 Share Unclean Member November 13, 2007 1. Jump in vent -- idle in the Hellgate channel, and people usually join. 2. I sometimes get that. Or "you do not meet the requirements, equipment removed". There are lots of random bugs and glitches in the game, and I don't expect them to be mostly resolved for another month or two.

Saris November 13, 2007 Share Saris Member November 13, 2007 I don't think the requirements are a bug. Check your mods, sometimes if you mod your weapon while its equipped, your go over your willpower without having to remove your weapon, so it disables sm of your mods.

Unclean November 13, 2007 Share Unclean Member November 13, 2007 It disables them, even though it says "equipment removed"? Nothing is taken out of my weapons or appears in my inventory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anonymo November 13, 2007 Share anonymo Member November 13, 2007 That "you do not meet the requirements, equipment removed" thing usually means that one of your weapon sets doesn't match with your armor. Happens to me a lot, where I put on new armor while using one weapon set and don't test it with all three, so one set can't handle something somewhere. It just disables the equipment, if you switch back to your "working" set the equipment magically reappears. The "extreme" thing is quite weird but I seem to only see it if I accidentally try to teleport to someone of a higher level, but then again it does happen randomly, probably a ghost (I am starting to think that sometimes different instances get mixed up by the server, sometimes I will see a really high level player just appear randomly in front of me while in a quest area...it's all weird) btw unclean, I finally managed to be able to use that electic ray gun you gave me...i kinda modded up to do 127 damage ...the game has lost it's edge for now (my buddy is loving that sword btw...should find someone else to hand it down to, see how long it can last) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
