Well I have two accounts so I can use for this. By my calculations one account should be even enough most likely.
Its probably boring to watch as I dont stream sound or talk at all
Just to clarify. Everything drops and I pick up in my solo game or public games counts for the grail. But I dont take anything given for free and also trading is not allowed.
There are so many items i have never ever ever seen that it simply wont happen. Plenty of ladder left, thats not the problem, its just impossible in terms of odds.
I will admit, its playing the game as it is meant to be played. If only there was an online SSF ladder with holygrail feature, people could compete live with you.
Thx, I found first two items yesterday, Kinemil´s Awl Giant Sword and Sander´s Riprap Heavy Gloves. But leap barb wasnt propbably best of my ideas, he seems weak and hit mechanics of that area dmg is just weird and sometimes working in wird way. Am going to stream next part right now:
Started my last playing session with Baalruns and I found out how bad is Leap attack build. THe main issue is that you are getting hit by monsters even before you actualy land. I have seen at at minions of destruction. They always hit me with stun before I could react after Leaping attack. And I was killing Baal hell like forever with it
I was lucky to find quite good Baaalruns teleported by level 93 sorc. That guy also rushed us after to end of Nightmare. After that I did some NM baalruns and found Hell game where we managed to get to ACT V Hell. After that I did few Hell Baalruns and like 1 Hour of farming Lower kurast at Baalruns. Got Lum there
I was able to pick up plenty of missing items for grail, but pretty much everything is missing at this point soâŚ
Suff I found in last session:
Misc:
Âą28 Flawless gems
White Phase Blade ( I will try to socket it next time to get either 3 or 5 sockets)

Finished Barbarian at level 74. Plan for today is to gain some levels, run some Kurast object runs, respec into Horker and get Cold Sunder Charm with Find item in some public Terror Zone games by scavenging dead elites. Then Making Frozen orb/Blizzard sorc and level her to start farming bosses.
RealisticallyâŚno, not even with TZâs.
To many things that are insanely rare, odds of finding all of them even if running all day every day are just to small.
Though the rune department could become easier (much in comparison) if you would craft up, would be an expensive version of playing, but chances of getting all runes if your willing to even do things like up 2 Jah to 1 Cham would really increase.
But I doubt you would get lucky enough to find every unique in one season.
Yeah itâs all RNG, I found my first Windforce after about 3 days (immediately build a bowazon ofcourse) after finishing Hell when I started online.
Found one more in the next 20+ years XD
I think itâs possible if you could farm p7 solo for 12 hours a day on an optimized S tier build. Easiest way to do that would be to have a sick computer that can multibox 7 clients since youâre not streamer privileged.
Still a pretty good chance you would get hung up on something but it sounds reasonable.
This new rule just turned me off to your thread. When you said you accepted this as a challenge I thought you were going to do SSF, then you allowed to get help from random pub folks so you finish quests due to others finishing them and now you accept items on ground. Lol ok yea real challenge.
The true challenge is finding them all yourself. If you play pub you are now playing with all those âcheatersâ from d2jsp, so you are indirectly benefitting from an âunfair tradingâ system.
My whole idea was that this will be online grail. I only slightly changed my rules in the text of firts post which I posted when I wasnt even conviced to start it yet.
As i said I am playing solo and public games. So why would I not pick up something which dropped from monsters in game I am in? Do you think that with being able to pick up stuff dropped in public games I can easily finish this grail? Just by scavenging? What is the big advantage in that when I have to fight over loot with idk 7 other players?
Cheaters? People really should stop with this namecalling. Just because someone trade on JSP doesnt mean its cheater. I dont like JSP but I would guess that over 90% people there do not cheat. They just simply trade there. Thats all. On my main account I had enigma in 10 days with like 99,5% trades made over discord with other people who found those items on their own, now its month in season. Just because I play in public games, doesnt mean those people cheated their items somehow.
Thats being said, basicly only reason why I currently prefer public games over playing solo is leveling. I hate leveling, its boring as hell so I use public games to level up, not to loot stuff others found, thats just byproduct. My Barb is 87 after doing Baalruns today and some terro zones in public games. so I am probably going for lvl 88 and then I will not play with others anymore and stick to only what I personaly found as I will not play in groups and mostly solo.
Its fine if you dont take is as challenge, I still think it is. Some people already few times offered me some equip, I declined everything. I take only what dropped in games I am in. And I missed Arachnid Mesh from Diablo today lol
I cant wait to play solo as I can finaly get to farming items to get full loot, not to fight for it with mutliple other people.
Iâm gonna go with probably not just not enough time.
There are too many super rare items. You will never find a dweb, griffon, and all that in one ladder season. I was thinking I donât know Iâve ever found mang songs lesson in the 20 years Iâve played this lol
Iâd probably just say how much of a holy grail can you finish? And go for a personal best.
Iâve done all self found mostly and I donât see it happening
Last session was great, I got some Sunder charms and leveled barb in public games to 87. I will probably go for lvl 88 and then start sorceress. I cubed the Phase Blade from previous session and it made 5 sockets. I also found some decent ethereal items for future socketing in cube. I finished my MF gear (helm+armor) and are runnign with 244% MF horking because i respeced into Zerk/horker build finally.
I had some good finds, Stormshield from Upper Kurast object, +14% all res and +13% all res Grand charms and also Gul rune (time 3:07:52 in last streamed video) from object (lower kurast). I had opportunity to get Arachnidmesh from Diablo, but someone was faster than me.
Here is list of stuff I was able to get in last session and at the bottom you can see next part which iI stream now. But I will start by muling stuff first and that will take some time.
Misc:
Plenty of Flawless gems (will be cubing some GCs once I will get ilvl 91 charms)
Grand Charm +13% all resistances
Grand Charm +14% all resistances, 5-10 cold damage
4x Cold Sunder charms(75%, 78%, 81%,86%), Poison Sunder charm (81%,88%), Fire Sunder Charm 75% and Physical Sunder charm 10%.
I didnt do much last session, a lot of it I was AFK doing some other things(busy with real life stuff). I leveled Barbarian to almost 89 and started sorceress but only managed to get level 11. I have morning now and ther eare no baalruns so I will focus leveling sorceress for now.
I also managed to get 4 sockets into Monarch via Cube recipe and I failed do do 4 sockets into Bec-De-Corbin.
I didnt find much while doing Baalruns, just few things:
Misc:
2x Shael
Baal Essence
Set Items:
Angelic Sickle Sabre
Isenhart´s Parry Gothic Shield (Isenhart set is completed)
So this has become a typical Zax thread that ends up being different than what he argues about and then never ends up getting done anyways. Good stuff.
I usualy have more projects at once, some get finished some not Depends on time and other factors :).
I have many interesting ideas and get excited fast about them, but later I sometimes change my mind and dont finish them and focus something else instead.
I reconsidered this from multiple reasons, your previous comments, release date of D4, current lack of time as I keep working on my D2R mod still and most importantly there is planned MF tournament from 24.12 I will be participating in(grail). So I would be wasting time to do same thing few weeks before tournament starts.
