Coolidge and I finally finished Nightmare Difficulty tonight. I last left off with us just entering Heaven for the final Act.

I just love the look of Auriel, she’s probably my favourite Angel. Their wings look so different to the ones in WoW but different game so it makes sense. Although the other day Coolidge told me about the boars on D3 looking just like the ones in WoW. I even read a blog post about it but can’t remember where I saw it =/

We’ve all seen this screen before but there’s a reason I’ve linked it today. We were in the Radiant Chapel doing what we do, which usually means Cool holding the big guy while I pick off the little ones. In this instance, there were a lot of those mobs that drop those frost grenades. I usually Diamond Shield if I’m close to them but this time I had quite a few on me and my DS and pot were on CD. So I died…
No real interest there right?
Well, waiting there for Cool to finish off everything, I was lying there dead (minding my own business) when some more of those grenades were thrown around where I was lying. Once they blew, I was blasted as well which is why my body was blown away from the grave. All of a sudden I saw my corpse flying head first straight into the railing… at the time I thought it was hilarious and even looking at the pic now it makes me giggle.
I didn’t even realise that could happen once you were dead. Although come to think of it I have seen some really funny things in WoW when people are dead. One involves Hugadarn dying towards the entrance in AQ40 when we were 2P’ing the first mobs for mounts. He had died towards the portal but started sliding backwards across the sand, up the big boulder and then down the other side. LMAO!

Last night, I wasn’t content to log out since Coolidge had just managed to ding 50 and I was just a sliver from dinging as well, so we headed through the Gateway to the Silver Spire, killing a few groups of mobs before I levelled as well.

Here we are the night before. I had just managed to get the achievement for colouring everything one colour. I wish you could see which colours you had used on an item already without having to zoom in. That doesn’t always help me as the dyes aren’t always that distinct, esp on the shoulders. So I probably ended up colouring the same item the same colour a couple of times trying to figure out which item I was missing for the achievement. I’ve since noticed that you can’t colour your bracers or weapon (didn’t think you could but I just thought I’d try anyway) :P

Surprisingly, killing Diablo wasn’t as bad as I expected. Even the shadow phase wasn’t that bad, The worst bit was the third phase back in our realm, when s/he did the spray. I’m just glad I didn’t die but it’s pretty rare that I’ll die on a boss.
I had started talking to my followers for the chat achievement as well as taking a pic when I saw the pop-up that asked if I wanted to leave Nightmare and go to the next level of Difficulty. Unfortunately, I didn’t realise there was timer counting down and thought I could just close the thing and exit later. I was annoyed at myself the first time round as I wanted a pic of how I looked on the Character select screen with that cool Heaven backdrop but I didn’t know how to get the backdrop back so I was determined to get one this time ’round. While we were discussing this, Cool told me there were only 6sec left until were were dropping out… I hadn’t even started looting yet… so I raced over to at least pick up the yellow item and was trying to pick up one of the purples when I saw a black screen. Oh well, I really only wanted the yellow anyway.
On a positive note, Cool told me we could just switch back to Nightmare difficulty and select the last quest for the Heaven shot, so without further ado, here it is :)
