In order to test out my drone’s new weapon, I played a bit more of Hellgate today. Well, more than a bit, as I wound up clearing out most of the quests in the Liverpool station, leaving only the Necropolis to go. The new weapon is a bit of a bust, though; the phasing attack doesn’t kick in as often as I’d like. That’s partly because the drone prefers to use the Wart’s Leg to attack while it’s tanking, so it doesn’t actually get off many phasing attacks. I need that Leg on it though, since that’s where most of its armour comes from. Oh well.
The Hellgate servers were down for a while for a restart, and during that time I also did a bit more Baal farming in Diablo 2. My HC necro gained three levels along the way, but it was otherwise uneventful.
