My first successful completion of the fabled Pacifist speedrun of diablo 2! Rules of this run can be located under the "Miscellaneous" section of the D2:LOD Speedrun board http://www.speedrun.com/d2lod#Pacifist (Click "view rules!")
Before you ask about my splits - yes they keep going off whenever I rejoin the game at the start - I'm pretty sure that's because the autosplitter assumes that a player who has EXP of 0 must be a new character, so it starts the timer (which is the same hotkey as splitting). I fix it on the go :P
Lots to improve, start was kinda shaky. Still working on figuring out what the optimal /players settings are throughout the run. Lots of rips that could have been avoided. etc
Biggest things about this run compared to other pacifist speedruns done:
- I did not farm a whole lot for levels. I tried to gain EXP along the way to other objectives rather than farming Raka/Beetleburst/Serena/etc (I farm raka a bit to start, but that's it) I did not farm for a tele staff - You can get past the walls in act 5 with nova gear, and you lure some monsters to you. If you stick to the middle of the map, or the bottom right of maps that point top-right, you'll run into fewer doors, but it's not guaranteed.
- The above point also means that I did not require being level 24 to complete the run
- I did not farm tower for runes - I did it once for the exp, and if you get the lucky TalEth drop, bonus! I did not, unfortunately
I encourage exploration of ideas that could possibly benefit these runs! If you have an idea or comment or suggestion, let me know!
