Thor v2 died even more stupidly, at lvl ~41. I knew the internet at my parent's place was pretty bad when I went back home to visit for a week, but after playing softcore for a couple hours and not feeling any lag, I felt safe enough to log onto my hardcore barb. Run into the first mob, and immediately froze and lagged out. Thor v3 is doing OK so far! Lvl 48 and in act 3 nightmare, having survived a couple hairy moments with Belial. I'm investing religiously in +vit now and will probably cry buckets if this chara dies . Thus goes my first foray into hardcore. It's so addictive and yet so nervewracking! | ||

I had just purchased several nice "Level Requirement Reduced By" pieces of gear and was trying out a new experimental build in Act 1 Hell. It was so easy that I started to play really sloppily. When I ran into a pack of Frozen + Arcane Enchanted wretched mother type enemies, I didn't react until it was too late. I got hit by a single freeze and then chain frozen for a few seconds while the Arcane Sentries made short work of me. Learned a good lesson that's for sure. I already made a new Wizard, got her to 60 and reached Act 1 Inferno tonight. | ||

Sometimes I really wonder what has happened to Blizzard in the last years. Sorry to hear that. ㅜ.ㅜ That's why you should always restart quests from the beginning rather than resuming them. It's annoying to lose the progress but with servers the way they are, it's much safer. | ||

first ever HC char, level 52 barb. had lived past 3 of my DHs, and 1 or 2 of another friend's barbs. had survived a few close calls, but felt luck was on his side. cue the entrance to the cathedral in hell, where you fall in and there's no exit. right after the first door, a pack of arcane / vampire / electric, with now here to run. | ||

Going down the tower to Cydaea.. in the middle of a big fight with phase beasts, succubus, and a few random other mobs and my game freezes... screen goes blank.. le sigh. ( I had just potioned ) About 5 seconds later it all comes back, I am at a sliver of HP. I smokescreen and vault out of the mobs. WHEW MADE IT. WRONG. Phase beast appears on top of me. | ||

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. | ||

Brought me down to about 2k life. Withouth the passive regen, I would have been dead for sure. And of course, had I been fighting anything but the weakest possible enemies, I would have been dead for sure. | ||

3 dead lvl 60 inferno barbs. First died to Jailer straight into frozen with desecration, stunlocked for a solid 13 seconds until dead. Second died to Belial's new 3 minute enrage timer. Had him 8% before enrage. Third I decided to go 2 hander to mix it up. Was great fun until I got one shot by a champ group of dark berserkers ( 4x slow swings while trapped in wall ). Fourth is soon to be 60, Will go 2 hander again and hopefully I'll have learned from the experience to not take leap of my bars. | ||

That spot is a trap spot. No exit strategy once you go in there so you need to make damn sure you can handle packs if they are on the other side ^^. | ||

Similar situation to me, I was in Hell killing mobs with a lower level friend, he almost instantly died, but I was lucky enough to only be against a few relatively weak mobs. Came back with 1/3 hp or so. Might be time to take a break from HC. | ||
