Not too shabby. 5 Characters 9 mules, 14 in NM 14 in Hell.

Chance of zero UMs = 7%  (BARFFFFFF!!!)

Well I did get 5 PULs and used one for Chanter armor so I guess 2 of
those remaining PULs will have to make an UM.

2 MALs 1 IST 2 GULs, the world is upside down so sings Javert in Les
Miserables

What's that? Rush another 8 mules? No way!!! I am sick of rushing
mules.

Hey I don't mind act 1, 3, and 4. It's the long desert treks, even
using the cheeze sleeze after Duriel is dead and doubling up on the
mules before the chest in Maggot is popped and the alter is kicked and
the Tome in the Arcance is read. That's a pain. Then there's the pubbie
sleeze by Baal, that has finally taken its toll on my common sense.

ARGH!! That's it!! I will have to make do with what I have.

Don't waste those Puls. Heck, I'll pay you an Um just to have you on
retainer for the next time one of my more fragile builds needs UT help :)

your more fragile builds?

what's that mean? That you kill them all in 5 minutes instead of 1 or
2?

or you really starting to expriment with some odd ones now that you've
conquered it zillions of times.

I stand and await my call to duty!

OH! OH! OH!

I've taken about 15 guys to the Hell Hellforge this ladder and I've
yet to get a Gul.  I have gotten one Mal, several Ist and several Ums
though...

Don't feel too bad, over 400 countess key runs and the highest she's ever
dropped for me is 2x lum.

That is an absolute "barfing in your pants" situation!!

I am certain that it is illegal!!  ( i have a lawyer friend..i'll ask
him ..wont cost that much since he calls himself a friend....maybe 98%
of his usual rate...)

400 times = 2 x Lum !!.....

..anyone know where Mr. Blizzard lives ?? (Maurice Blizzard IIRC  ...or
is it Henry ??) , he needs a little CB in his face i am afraid.....

I'm almost afraid to say this, but I have to share my happy story; just
so you guys know it's possible:

(This is since I returned to the game a month or two ago.)

First Hell Countess run: Fal
Second Hell Countess run: Ko + Um

First Hell Hellforge run: Gul
[Second Hell Hellforge run: Fal (but we'll ignore that.)]

That said, I spent aeons trying to get a Lem or a Mal to drop; but I
never saw one.  Friends and trades have been the only source of these
for me.  This either makes me feel very guilty, or costs an arm and a
leg. :)

Oh well, it seems we rarely find what we're looking for.  But then
again, that's what makes trading so great!

Ha, got you beat, my first hell hellforge this ladder was a gul, second was
an ist, there I stopped since it seemed I was on a downward spiral.

I have 2 other chars ready to do their hell forges but I am afraid to do
them, btw, I traded the ist for a gul and immediately cubed to a vex.

I also managed to get 4 out of six nm forges to be ums, as well as lower
stuff on either side of that streak.

Braggart. ;)

Heh heh.

Nice.  I traded my Gul for a Mal and a Lem.  From a value perspective I
probably got robbed, but I had no use for a Gul and was a Mal and a Lem
away from two useful runewords.  The guy I traded with then cubed up a
Vex.  Nice when both people walk away happy, yes?

I love those streaks.  The "other" streaks that happen between them...
not so much!
