Just made my first HC char, lvl 11 wizard (because i've never played one so playing it HC is a great idea). She's called IWillNotLive, and I expect her to live up to the name, although she lives. For now.
I bet she'll die at level 15

With the game lagging out / servers randomly crashing once a day you guys are true champions... I really want to play HC but I'm not as much as touching it until the servers are stable, my old nerves are far too valuable :p

lost fucking internet came back 10 minutes later logged back in and I was dead

Poor Wizard died..she just got to level 42. had 1800 dps, 6900 hp. Totallt underestimated the dmg Belial can do when doing the exploding acid on the ground. wasnt quick enough to use my health potion. My diamond skin was on cool down. ;__;
She will be remembered in the Halls of heroes! ^^'

When I got diablo I leveled one character to 10 and then started a hardcore character so everything after lvl 10 I had never done before or even seen. My first character was a monk. I played with a friend who died at lvl 16 after tabbing out to check facebook. The monk died halfway through act 1 NM, ran ito a giant pack of those moon clan things and pulled a elite pack of wallers who quickly built a square around me and 20 mobs. I was level 35 when that happened. Second character was a barbarian. Was running around at level 16 in act 2 when I came to a buried ship and triggered a quest. All of the sudden about 10 of those baneling type mobs spawned and blew me up. Third character was a monk who died at Maghda on lvl 16. Still not sure what the hell happened. Now playing my fourth character, a lvl 35 barbarian who is cruising through Act 1 NM atm.

my friend's has lost 5 lv60 wizards on inferno HC progression. and majority of the time due to rubberbanding in arcane sentries. lol.

so, first HC char is nearing Belial on nightmare mode. skip him right? I can handle any other boss, but I die on him 50% of the time with my other chars. he just feels to risky to attempt after spending so much time leveling.

As long as you're overgeared and leveled (which you should always be really when playing HC) he's fine, but otherwise better skip him.

Honestly there's no boss you need to skip before Inferno because you always have the option of overleveling and crushing it if you're worried.

My is pretty silly guys. I usually rush through normal and nightmare stages and in act2 of nightmare i was on the desert(dont remember how it's called in the game) and there were like 7-10 zombies near each other. My 42 level monk used a spell that pulls all the monsters to itself and i got stuck surrounded by poor zombies. Then i tried to escape or kill them as fast as possible but i noticed that i don't have monk energy anymore. Then i wanted to use potion but it was still on cooldown from the previous fight. GG, that's how my rush ended.

Well, I had the same Situation with one of my monks. First pack of suicide bombers in act 2 and a few seconds before the fight I swapped my healing skill and this stupid "pull all monsters" one. RIP, gg, no re, but I will never use this spell once again for sure. ^^
My new monk is on nightmare again though, kind of an achievement for me, because I suck at melee combat.
|
Just got to NM with my monk as well. Is anybody using Wave of Light with Exploding Light? At this level, I find it very useful for clearing large groups if I get surrounded. And with Transcendence, it heals me a pretty large amount.
Then again, I guess in NM I can probably use any skill and still survive... I'd like to find a way to incorporate Blinding Flash in my build, though. I swapped it out in favor of Breath of Heaven, but now I miss it.

52 lvl barb, hell act 1, farming warrior's rest. elite archers group, arcane enchanted, mortar, something burn wrath, jump in, dont care about lazors, wrath over, forget that you can actually die now, fight till 10% hp, leap away, die from mortar, laugh/cry 19h gameplay

Lost a 34 monk after a huge lag spike.Guess i should not even be playing hardcore since im new and have not even finished nightmare on softcore.

Well, me and my friend have been levelling HC Wizard's together. I didn't die, but my friend did.
The funny thing is, he had about twice as much health as me despite both of us being the same level (36), and he had overall better gear.
(My wizard, who is still alive, is called IWillNotLive, for the record)
I think he got distracted by something and lost focus for a moment, not noticing his character was steering into an elite pack. He was surrounded and killed by three different arcane orbs.
His first reaction was hilarity. Later he came to terms with what had happened (we're the type of HC players that tend to be really careful when playing; grind a lot, etc) and went into his just-broke-up, need-bucket-of-ice-cream phase.
R.I.P. IWillSurvive.

Hahaha that's funny. Also I didn't know there was a hall of fallen heroes, time to start playing hardcore.

Blizzard just came out and stated in a blue post that the average life of hardcore characters is 6 hours. That's pretty damn quick.
Made level 55 myself today. Was playing with a 57 WD who ran straight into a pack with mortar and 2 other mods I didn't see in Act 2 sewers. He died, quit, and re-created a new character all in the span of 30 seconds. Can't fault his determination I guess.

i guess thats because vast amounts of noobs try hc, fail horribly in act1 or 2 within the first 6 hours and then quit.

Died a few minutes ago, monk level 57 in Act II Hell. I was well equipped with 260AR and about 30K hp, but I got into a pack of fire chains, waller, desecrator mobs together with some spiders (those that slow you down) and they simply locked me in place. I ran for a while, then I found walls all around me and the mobs surrounded me.
I couldn't move. I tried teleporting away a few times, but to no avail. I lasted a bit with Serenity, heals and my pretty good life on hit, but I just couldn't move and you can't stand in fire chains / desecrator forever.
It's too bad I couldn't hit level 60, but not a big deal. Time to roll another char!
