Had a fund day today but we have hit a brick wall.
My gear isn't that great and moms is even worse. We did finally make it SK but we wiped at around 50% for 3 or 4 times. So went went on the Cellar in the Old Ruins thru Adria's Hut/Mass Grave runs. While they aren't amazing runs by any stretch of the imagination, it is something we can do and do rather quickly.
We also don't have much gold and can't go fix the problem by visiting the AH. So it looks as though we will be doing these runs for awhile unless we get lucky with the RNG and land good loots we can use or sell.

Still at that big bad brick wall. We can get to the SK, but can't get him past 50%. So we went back to just Old Ruins runs.
We aren't making much gold, but we are making gold. Haven't been lucky enough to actually loot a piece that we can use. I have upgraded my Templar at least.... Though I have to dismiss him if I get a goblin. That's another thing. I have to solo goblins right now, because the 2 of us can't kill a goblin. This makes me sad.
However, overall we both are

Today was a quick day as I have plans tonight.
We ran a few games from the start up to Adria's Hut/Mass Grave. Then we ran one from the start up to SK. We just can't do SK yet so we went to AH each bought a new weapon to try out on Monday. The good news is we are starting to accumulate gold so if we don't actually loot things we can use, we will be able to go AH shopping.
As always.

We got in 2 of our ACT 1 INFERNO runs. We start at the start and finish with an SK attempt. The first one ended with us getting him to 50% or so. The 2nd attempt which we just did, we got him to 2% or less. I didn't get out of the way of a teleport with him under 5 % and mom just couldn't quite finish him.
We are going to try again tomorrow starting with part 3 so we will get to the SK quicker, but still be warmed up from playing.
We both have 1 or 2 new pieces of equipment from the AH and finally have some money starting to pile up due to the NV buff and killing stuff. I really hope we slay the SK tomorrow so we can see some new parts of INFERNO(just like hell/nm/normal).
About to have a homemade hamburger with a side of spinach/cream of mushroom soup.

Just had to post that we got SK today and are now taking a break for lunch. We had a 5 stack of NV but I didn't get anything great. Will check moms yellows after we eat.
My grandma calls EVERY day and she called in the middle of the SK fight. So mom just didn't answer. She's talking to her now. BTW, my grandma is 83 if I haven't mentioned it.
Anyways.... lunch and then onto more of INFERNO.

Today was a short day with the patch taking up most of the time we play.
We made it to Leoric's manor and logged off.
The only notable thing to happen today is I got a rather nice SET piece(Blackthorne's Breeches). It looks like I got a good roll too. So I put it on the AH in the hopes of being able to buy several upgrades for both mom and myself.

I read this, don't be discouraged by the lack of responses. GL

Last couple of day and the next few days have/will be spent doing what farming we can do which is the 2 cellars near the Old Ruins. Not super fun, but

Did the set piece sell?
No.
I've re-listed it cheaper and will do so to a point. Once it becomes more cost efficient to use it I will.....
Thanks for asking. Shows me people ARE reading......

Hi there. I've been reading your blog and I gotta say I have a similar experience with Inferno. When soloing it, defeating any elite or rare mobs takes me about 15 mins of kiting with like 10 deaths. I beat the butcher with 2 other friends the other day and when I tried act 2 solo I was getting 1 to 2 shotted by the normal mobs. Definitely gonna have to be farming and saving up money for quite awhile before I can progress.

It sure takes a while to finish this game  I also keep on reading your blog Pudge_172, keep on updating  tell your mother she's awesome

She's become a bit down on her play lately....... She also finds the fast pace of the game and intensity to be getting to her the longer we play. So we aren't playing as much or as often.
We did get to The Butcher today and the lowest we got him was 25% twice. I've been doing some grinding and have saved some money and I've picked up 2 new items for her today from the AH that we will try out 2moro or Wednesday as we have things to do 2moro.
I'm hoping we can get The Butcher the next time we do play and get into ACT 2. I've been doing SK runs solo to get money and that's working. If 1.0.3 goes in soon that would allow those SK runs or some early ACT 2 run to really help us out.
Despite not playing as much co-op and more solo, I'm

I read this, I just don't have very much to ask, you do a very good job of keeping up to date. I'm rooting for you guys, and I have done something similar with my mother on playing World Of Warcraft arenas(tons of fun) it didn't last long, but it sounds you are doing something really cool!

Good News/Bad News/Good News
1. Good News. We co-op downed The Butcher today on INFERNO.
2. Bad News. Mom gets destroyed in ACT 2 and wants to quit.
3. Good News. Despite going solo for now, she will give the game another try once 1.0.3 kicks in and I get her some better gear.
So while not having as much of a blast as before......

Aw, its great that you guys made it to Act 2 of inferno though, not the easiest feat!
|
Nice blog, gz on getting so far. And I'm not surprised it's starting to get rather dumb given Blizzard's balancing of inferno.
|
Haha this is such an awesome idea and I really like this, hope your mom is having fun and I'm impressed that she's able to keep up so well, tell her to keep trying! We're rooting for her
