Well the site itself was 15 minutes late. So you only missed out on 45 minutes.

Good to know. I thought I was two hours late, but it was really only 1 hour and 45 minutes. :)

With VIG registrations just around the corner I was putting together my wish list. I would like to do some NM runs with a semi-organized group but only have 2 players and I'm new so I don't know a lot of people on this forum and so I'm a bit leery of trying to buy and fill a full run. So, I guess I would be interested in thoughts/advice. Should I try to buy a run? Leave a time slot open and wait for LFM posts here? Pick time slots that are in a lot of wish lists (since you can see that) under the assumption that those list are only VIG right now so are more likely to being looking for runs above normal? .

I'd say if you're flexible on time, you'll find plenty of NM groups LFM here.

If you want a particular time, buy it out, and then post it as NM LFM.

I suspect, barring Thursday, you'd fill no problem.

Hi Dan, welcome to the forum! You mentioned that you're new, so I just wanted to ask if you know much about the different difficulty levels available and have a lot of tokens already? Nightmare is one of the highest difficulty levels, and it's expected that anyone playing it has a very strong character with lots of high rarity tokens (as you'll need them to survive the increased difficulty). If you have a build suitable for Nightmare already, great! Otherwise you'll likely need to borrow a lot of tokens from other players to get the most enjoyment out of your run, so you may want to include that when you make your post.
I play Rogue. Occasionally I even play Rogue well.

It may also not be obvious to the average person that we veteran forum-ites use "NM" to mean Nightmare, not Normal, even though the actual letters would seem to fit both words equally well (awkward turtle gesture).

edit: though you did also say "above normal" so I guess you probably know what you're talking about here. Carry on :)

Yes, my AC is lower than the Wizard's. No regrets!

Yes, thanks for checking, I could certainly see people making that mistake. But I have two builds of quite a few best in slot purples and 3-5pt relics(including class relic). Basically lvl 5 with +20-ish hit, damage, and all saves. Also have IoS TE and HHL but no CoAS or CoA.

I believe these are fine for nightmare, but let me know if you disagree.
