The Hardcore UBER Challenge

[bonobo4]

THE UBER CHALLENGE

I thought seeing as though there's a 0 deaths xmax challenge by Eric The Red and continued on by gasconron, then maybe there should also be the 0 Deaths Uber Challenge. I myself tried it, but failed miserably. This is Uber Mod 1.0 by Munderbunny, no custom-made versions allowed. No cheating, no backing up save data files, no copying characters, etc. Twinking, (using items from other characters) is allowed, I recommend it, seeing as though Uber gives a -22% reduction to any requirements except level requirements. If you go untwinked that's obviously fine, as is untwinked with no potions. If you did xmax with 0 deaths then you are obviously very good, but Uber with 0 deaths? Impossible? We will soon find out. Anyone up for this suicidal challenge? Those who do it will be definitely worthy of praise and Uber status. Anyone is welcome to enter, but you must follow the rules. There is a link to the Uber Mod download at the bottom of this post.

If you want an extremely hard challenge, why not try no twinking, no potions. Also, why not try the Live Off The Land Challenge, as in you can't buy stuff or twink, (Enchanters are allowed for artifacts, but that's it.) For a full set of rules on this challenge, click here. You must rely on drops only! A variant of this is the Diablo II's Iron Man Challenge, which is effectively the same, but with no re-runs, so no farming.

Anyone who does Uber hardcore with potions will be classed as an Uber Legend. Do it no potions and you're a God. Do it LOTL, you're an Uber Naturalist. Also, see the notes at the bottom, they'll explain rules and credits, etc.

There are several defiler options allowed to aid you, they don't make the game unfair but may make it easier.

Defiler Mods allowed

1. Freeze time of day
2. Infinite Potion Stacking
3. Disable Zeus Speech
4. Show Hidden Prefixes/Suffixes
5. Show items toggle
6. Show all Damage

Live off The Land Rules
1. No buying from shops.
2. Only allowed stuff found on the ground.
3. Enchanters are allowed to make Artifacts and get rid of charms.
4. Selling is disallowed.
5. Potions and gold allowed.
6. Storage Area of caravan allowed, transfer area banned completely.
7. Mystics are banned. This means no respeccing!
8. Most importantly, gameplay has to be 100% Uber!

Information about Uber Mod

Here's Munderbunny's 60 second Uber video.


NOTES: We are not responsible for loss of sanity, loss of hair, or loss of sleep.
All credit goes to Munderbunny for making such a great and difficult mod.
When you sign up, you must give me your character's name, level, class, and whether or not they're twinking. It's very annoying having blank data. If you see blank data regarding you or anyone else, please tell me that data so I can update.
That's all! So good luck!

[Sponozza]

This is what my elementalist is trying to do, I just decided to post in the XMAX thread instead.

16 and going strong! Eruption simply destroyed the Cyclops =p

Edit: No twinking here, no toon to twink with!

[Munderbunny]

rofl

ok,

1) I didn't sign up for this challenge.
2) That character who died has like 923487324583485 deaths. The screenshot was to lament on how close I was to the next level.
3) That character is UNTWINKED, lol.
4) 0-deaths...just...lol

People going for 0-deaths in Uber are guaranteed at least one death to boredom.

[siegefried2]

Lol. Uber is still 1.0, not 1.1. Don't get my hopes up! There's no way I'm taking this challenge though. XD

1. Ok, I'll get rid of it.
2. Ok, I'll get rid of it. Lol at your death count and you were very close.
3. Ok, I'll get rid of it.
4. Yeah, but it may be possible. If xmax is, Uber might be.
5. When was your first death, so I can put that up?

People going for 0-deaths in Uber are guaranteed at least one death to boredom. Yeah, maybe they are, kiting around just to kill the satyrs at the start and in Helos Farmland is quite dull. But fun, if that's possible.

Why post it in the xmax thread? But keep going your doing awesome. I expect to die on Cyclops.

Ok, I'll change it, but yeah, maybe this is suicidal. Anyway, it's the hardest thing to do, anyone who does this I demand they be made an administrator and be given praise. Joking maybe about the administrator bit, but still this is a hard challenge! What will be the difference between 1.0 and 1.1 when it comes out?

Currently at level 9 with Gaia, my Summoner. Regrowth and Call of The Wild are owning all, plus using a fire staff with Earth Enchantment owns all with extra fire damage. I love playing with this character, and I have decided that if and when I die, I'll carry on playing on Uber with her. The good thing about Uber is the high xp gain due to monsters increased spawning, and if there's double or nothing included, I don't notice it much, except the quests, but maybe that's cause of the wolves, I get less xp. To prove the high xp gain, I may be level 9, but I'm only just at the guy next to the bridge near Sparta telling you that your nearly there. I've been in a few hard fights, almost died atleast once, those Pandarus in the necklace quest cave are hard when there's 6 of them, (thanks to wolves, they died quite easily.)

Keep going people! Remember, this is an extremely hard challenge, but it may just be possible! Anyone is welcome to join, remember.

[kenpa007]

Wow... Uber... Now that's a beast I wouldn't like to mess with

Maybe after (successful) 0-d XmaX challenge

That's very true. I gave up on one 0 death uber character, because it's not fun trying to lure monsters to you one by one. He would've been destroyed by a group of mosnters. I continued it with xmax...and went on dying almost immediately

[bonobo4]

Unlucky. But talk about ironic, you don't die on Uber, but then you quit and die on xmax instead. Which character is this?

[siegefried2]

Might that be the seer going diviner in the Uberchallenge thread. But I think familiarity with the game is quite important, especially knowing the areas to grind for your level.

[bonobo4]

Anybody else want to try this? Please, come on, we need more than 2 entrants!

Siegefried, your propably right, success in uber requires being the right level at the right time. Grinding and farming may also become extremely important

Munder, who was that guy who you said got to level 50ish and died from a dactyl? Level, name and class needed please!
