It wasn’t a huge upgrade, but it was better than the no-stats, 3.0 DPS gray starter axe I had been swinging up until then. Fortunately the game relented literally one room away from the Butcher. I didn’t get my first weapon upgrade until I was already level 7 and it was taking 10 hits or more with my primary attack to kill random mobs. Worst of all is being left with an old weapon, as killing stuff becomes a chore, and all the more so when your defense pretty much depends on killing stuff before it kills you.Īnd weapon upgrades were in very short supply. Since the mobs scale with you as you level up, having old gear starts to really weigh against you. This makes getting regular gear drops somewhat critical to progress. ![]() One of the things with starting out as a level 1 is that you do level up quickly. I set the game to Adventure and the difficulty to Hard and set off for the event. No vendors on the run, just going with what I could pick up. And finally I decided to do it real old school and never return to town. I’d hate to die way down at level 16 and have to start from scratch again. I thought about making this a hardcore character… one death and he’s done… but decided that might be too much. I couldn’t just count on the Crusader’s defense to get through the massed of mobs. While not completely out of my comfort zone, I have not played one for ages, so it would be at least a bit of a change. That would cut off access to paragon levels, gold, extra equipment and such. ![]()
