True Tales from a Bowmancer (Added SC NL Prizes!)

Scored these along the way as well!

Bladebuckle but for now will stick with

Goldwrap

Switch over in A3 for protection against those little daggers AKA Weapons of Mass Destruction

Remembered the Thawing Potions this Time and the Battle was Super Easy

Durial was Simply no Match against this Insight + Edge + Golem .. Combow

Also. My Golem while he has

Thorns Aura from Sharpie The

Edge Bow
And that will wrap up the Day. Think this was Day 8 ?! Gotta go back and check, fix that as well at the beginning

Tomorrow Act 3, possibly the most terrifying and dangerous place in all of Diablo, always a .. Gambowl?

Day 9 and Bless me Lucky Small Charms! Loki what I found clearing the

Great Marsh!

.. Moments later, 1st

Lum Rune

Thank goodness the Jungle Maze is over and

Lower Kurast did not disappoint!

I'm back after a short break. Afraid I have some bad news. Day 9 did not end well for me as you can see. Believe I learned that those little Skele Dolls in Durance of Hate Explode? It's the only explanation for how I died. There was nothing near me. Golem was at the doorway fighting off Dolls. I hit the

Corpse Explosion and Pop goes my Body instant Death. I was torn and down so decided to give the game a little break. However I wasn't going to give up! I decided to start summarizing each day into one Post. so I preset to you Day 10 .. But 1st, RIP Bowmancer .. I do believe someone guessed Dolls. Will have to go back and look. Congratulations to them. Your welcome to guess my 2nd Death. But only for Funsies. I don't have infinite

Ist to give out haha
Came back with a chip on my shoulder and went all out No Mercy! Rotated the Insight back as my Main, Edge on the Merc and

Pus Spitter on the Off-Hand

Gave

Mephisto a healthy dose of CarBOWhydrates
Decimated everything that stood before my Bow with Ruthless Determination.

Diablo needed no ElaBOWration as Clayface was Hungry for Lightning
After that Saved

Anya, Kill Nihl and Cleared every area leading up to

Frozen Tundra

All that's left now is Ancients and

Baal then we Farm some NM Cows to prepare for Hell!

Here some of the Drop Highlights which includes;

Goldskin,

Ume's Lament,

The Spirit Shroud and

Cliffkiller
Now time for Day 11! Will bring you all the Highlights soon as possible. Back to the LaBOWtory for more Fun ExpARROWments

Yes, that was me! I even guessed it would happen in Nightmare too!

I guessed the

Bone Fetish precisely because of the explosion! They are a nightmare for melee characters, but I could see your golem dying to them, and then having them surround your Bowmancer before you realize it!.

No doubt. Good guess. Yea I had no idea they explode for physical damage. Would have kept safer distance.
But as they say, we Live (or Die) and Learn ha. Add me on BNet to Claim your Prize!

Day 11 was not much of a challenge. Shred my way to the Ancients and well
Seems the 3 of us was able to .. CollaBOWrate better in the end
Then came

Baal waves but I brought my handy dandy .. SurfBOW-rd
Okay I'm running out of Bow Puns, cut me some slack haha
And Finally

Baal himself, or Themselves. Had to Fight two Baals!
However their Death would be a slow, painful .. ForBOWding one
The world is saved once more Thanks to the Power of the Bow
Tis now Time to Farm Cows till Satisfied for Hell
Here's a complete look at how my Toon stands now B4 Cow Runs

https://maxroll.gg/d2/d2planner/l31uo08q

Being level 68 and likely reach 70 before Hell.
I have wondered if the developers intended the game to be played in this way
Going through every level, every area killing every monster in sight
Most beat Hell before 70 leaving 30 more levels to go before reaching Max
However at this rate. I will probably reach level 90 ... which oddly feels more correct

This has not been an easy run. In fact the most challenging by far
Lack of damage has forced me to be as resourceful as possible
Not even sure how am going to make it through Hell
But you better BOWlieve we going to give it our Best Shot
Now to focus on Gearing up and Preparing for Hell thru NM Cows

I'll keep posting any notable Finds until we are Ready
Till then Happy Hunting and Keep on Slaying my Fellow Diablo Dudes!!

I only play on Xbox, so probably won't be able to claim that.
I donate it back to the giver in gratitude for the entertainment provided!

I think @Knappogue used to play on Xbox, or was it Switch ? Anyway, he is a reliable transferrer just in case.
