decent amount of blue packs in a1 and a2 for once, ms from vendor. but i couldnt find weapons to craft or anything to craft with... my first crafted weapon was a two handed sword, got my first etched at lvl 25, had horrible mob combos early in docks so ofc i couldnt keep up and dropped ranks like mad :(

Well this race was disappointing. One and a half hours in I was doing OK (according to my plan) but then got mobbed and overwhelmed. I had pretty average gear and damn lousy rng. I mean really, 4 QS flasks no MS boots to be found anywhere and I could not for the life of me find an orb of Augmentation to craft. 10% would have been great and might have saved my bacon. With the right drops I could have crafted up to 20% and been flying through!

I think they really should tweak the drop rates for the lower tier of three main crafting orbs for these races. It won't unbalance things for the advanced players but it would be a nice little help along for the rest of us. I guess the name "Famine" extends to the Orb drops too!

So manage to push through a new character for the last half hour and salvage one point. Yippee.

Holy RNG batman! I had pretty amazing luck that race

items:
Spoiler


10% ms of vendor, 2nd quicksilver early act 1 (the climb i think, cant remember for sure). Found an alch in sarn for double axe craft, added fire dropped from a box in sarn, and blood rage dropped pretty early in docks.

If CWU had this luck he probably would of hit 39

Playing with 70-80ms ping, which is causing long loading between zones,
resulting in 2-4 minutes disadvantage in 1 hour races.
(I was wrong, it wasn't a ping issue but something else on GGG side)
