Finally completed my 1000 Travincal Run

I decided to start chasing those end game Runewords after I made my first Grief. So I started doing Trav runs with my WW 51% item find Barb. It does get nauseously boring sometime. Then I’ll switch to cow runs with my Javazon, Summon Necro and trapsin. (I don’t know how those people get 2-3 mins cow runs done, I thought my necro was going quite fast, I still need 5-6 mins from entering the game to most cows are killed.) and some Chaos and

Baal runs too, I didn’t do too many

Baal runs early because I don’t want to risk my lvl92 sorc losing exp, and other characters were just not efficient enough. but after I got Enigma,

Baal run became much more viable with Barb and Necro, and it yield good result.

All games are on b.net private game player 1. I only kept drop count for

Ist and up, I really should have start recording from

Um or

Pul since those turned into quite a few

Ist.

The result:
58 Chaos: brought me nothing… nil… zero (mostly full clear, occasionally seal pop)
150 Cow Run:

Jah

Ist
<20

Baal runs:

Sur

Lo
1000

Travincal:

Ohm

Sur

Jah

Gul*2

During the process, I made my second Grief which speed up things considerably, put

Guardian Angel and Kira’s Guardian on my merc and he rarely dies with a bit help of repositioning by

Teleport,

Conviction still hurts! Made a CTA with low roll… Made a decent HOTO, and a Enigma, you don’t know how good it is until your trapsin/necro/barb start teleporting, so great!

As for item drops, I didn’t keep track but I think I got 1 soj, 2

Tal ammy, 4 maras, 2 Highlords, a HoZ, 2

Raven Frost, 2 or 3 Nature’s Peace mostly come from Trav runs.

Now I am a

Sur short of making Infinity, and I need a

Thresher base, I don’t want to make it into a

Eth CA. Then Faith and maybe Fortitude and CoH later.

I think

Travincal is a decent place to camp, especially for a barb with item find. I got REAL lucky in those

Baal runs, and I think a bit unlucky in all those cow exploding… and Chaos is a total disappointment for me. All in all, I think it met my expectations.

you are lucky. my 1000 runs ended with only

Ohm,

Pul, 3 Lems. Couple of Shakos, 1 andy and afew gheeds.

I still need 1 or 2 more shakos for my chars, during the runs, I saw so many blue and yellow shakos, none unique. and so many blue Threshers, i was hoping to get one more reapers toll for my druid, didn't get it...

Happy for you OP. Great AAR (After Action Report) on your results.

I'll join the topic. Just completed 890

Travincal runs and got from them: 1 SOJ,

Sur,

Gul, lots of good charms, even skillers and all resistances, lots of flawless gems, some good rare amulets during the first 120 runs.

After that

Pul, 3

Fal, 2 Rainbow Facets,

Lum,

Lem,

Um, 2

Ko,

Ohm.

Hope to get something interesting during 110 left runs.

Travincal is my typical drop nothing location as most of the locations in this game. 500 runs - 1

Lem, no good unique, no good charm, no good jewel

Same here. 2 SOJ, 2

Sur 1

Ohm, 1

Gul, 1 Maras, and a bunch of mid-runes. Trav is the place where I normally go to magic find, and got me

Annihilus, Half Enigma, and recently enough dough to afford Beast.

500 run just a

Lem? that's even harder than getting a

Ber in 500 runs...
Maybe the game has some hidden mechanics that we don't know, I have gotten 4 Jahs in d2r but never seeing a

Vex drop.

It's all RNG. I pressed on after seeing your good drops. At 1322 runs, hork a

Sur.
Total after 1322 runs -

Sur,

Ohm, 2

Vex,

Um,

Pul, 3 Lems. 5 shakos, 4 Reapers (1 Ethereal), 3 Draculs, 1 Andy.

I think you just gotta figure out what place works best for you. For me I would just stay in

Chaos Sanctuary and not anywhere else. I've only been farmed

Chaos Sanctuary for a week since I made my Infinity only one week ago, but I already got the following:

1

Ber
299ED

Eth

Stormlash which was sold for 2

Ber +

Ohm
27CD

Death's Fathom still for sale

Eth andy's face which was sold for

Ohm +

Vex

Windforce
and countless midrune-worth gears like skin of vipermagi that I just stopped picking anymore.
It's been so wonderful

ahh

Windforce... always wanted one. too bad there is Faith now, and Faith merc with

Windforce just sound too expensive. I got a Grandfather sword, similar fate, even worse, because of Griefs.

yea, I forgot to mention, I got 6 facets from Trav during the run, including 1 5/5 fire and 1 5/5 lightning

mind if sharing your gear and MF when farming

Travincal ?

Did you switch weapon when horking?

There is in fact hidden mechanic. It is called bad luck.

Hey, 2 SOJ is not bad!!! Those are very good numbers (unless it was 12h of continuous, insufferable grind)!!
