Frozen Depths Agony, agony.

[CPS]

I've managed to get to level 107 in Frozen Depths, killing over 10k enemies yet I only managed to get to Agony III.

Is it possible to get past agony 3 in Frozen Depths, I've tried so many times but this must be impossible?

Argh!

Here's a screenshot to prove my point:

Yes it is possible to reach past agony 3. But Agony 4 is max and you can't advance there.
Agony increases on how quickly you can kill enemies, not the total amount of kills.

I think I did it once or twice with Flame Strike (Once with the beast master and perhaps 2nd time with the northman, can't remember).

Agony 5 is max, I've managed to get that on every stage but this :((

EDIT: Surely the more you kill = faster kills no?

Agony 5? you sure about that? I mean I haven't payed much attention to it.
But I'm pretty sure I saw a "I" there, but not 100% certain.


For the Flame Strike build, it really sucks at the beginning, but it ramps up hard when you got it to lvl6, and becomes a monster at lvl10. It get exponentially better.

Absolutely sure. Completing level 4 takes you to "MAX".

Problem with Frozen Depths is the enemies getting stuck on the terrain and thus making it so you can't advance until you kill them.

Hey failsafe,

Agony IV is doable on everyone, especially easy with Sorceress or Exterminator.
Agony V, never reached it even with perfect RNG and Living Bomb on Exterminator.
Although I didnt tried since the Agony changes.

A good spot where you dont get screwed over by stucking enemies:
From the Well go to the bottom right, there is a big opening.

Cheers!

I'm not failsafe although I've seen he has the same profile image as me. What level did you reach getting to agony level 4?

The more you kill, the higher the agony level. I killed enough to reach level 107 yet still only reached agony 3 >.<

This run was far from optimal, I think around 4.50 is it at best in a perfect run.

It looks like the latest patch may have made the game easier, again.

4.42 with a cleric/archer, main weapon only, relatively poor run of RNG - didn't hit peak offensive ability until relatively late. Adding an ability or two should make it pretty trivial to hit agony 5. The cleric/archer build suffers in the very late stage of this act in particular, when the massive number of high hp enemies makes his 'damage sharing' attack really suffer.

My Agony meter just went down from ca. 1 1/3 to flat 0. Is this supposed to be the way it works?

Did you died?

[quarantdeux]

No, it went down slowly. I think it is part of the Agony mechanic (now).

It used to work this way ever since.
When an enemy is stuck somewhere, he will constantly drain your Agony Meter.
