I think I'll stay HC moving forward, despite the fact I had some disheartning RIPs to DD, the sense of achievement and joy is like x100 and you continue to "feel" something regardless of how powerful your characters get because you can die even in a normal maven fight if you're not paying attention!

For those curious about the build and it's pob etc, It's Animate Guardian of Smiting Schizo Juggernaut, Or essentially the second tankiest build I could think of [Tankiest being BV Chieftain with foulborn lightning coil and mageblood]

Here's the PoB with the correct config [the unconditional stuff are ticked off, so without flasks etc]

Here's a fun clip from the closest to ripping I got [a Rune spawned under my feet in the middle of an Annhilation in uber exarch]

Hey everyone,

A quick comment : If you're worried about my account's age, just go to chat gpt and ask it the following prompt :

I've gotten tired of the mental countdown in my head everytime i kill a boss to farm companionship or a jewel or any other gem, so I created this simple visual and audio script that'll look like this on your screen,

As soon as you kill whomever you're farming, press F1, It'll count down 23s, and make a beep sound, once that happens, run to the middle to reset and run to boss, it should respawn, and you can reset the counter at anytime by pressing F1 again [in case you mess something up or decide to test or so]

It'll cover the top left buff icon, I wanted to make it top right but realized it'll cause some people issues bec we all might have different screen widthes etc, but alas, feel free to use it [It should be 100% safe in terms of ToS since it's more or less similar to live split, and has no effect in game]

P.S :

If you're worried about my account's age and don't want to take a script from me, feel free to use the prompt below in chatgpt or any AI, it'll achieve an almost identical result [I gave it back to chatgpt and asked it to make a prompt for it]

Write a simple AutoHotkey script that creates a minimal on-screen countdown timer.

Requirements:

• Timer duration is 23 seconds
• Pressing F1 starts or resets the countdown
• Display the remaining time as a number (rounded up to whole seconds)
• Update the timer smoothly (every 100ms)
• Play a beep sound when the timer reaches 0

UI requirements:

• Always on top
• No window border or title bar
• Small, minimal design
• Font: Arial, bold, size 15
• Very small display area (around 20x20)
• Center the text inside the box
• Position the timer at the top-left corner of the screen (x0 y0)
• No interaction required (NoActivate)

Keep the script clean, simple, and without unnecessary features.
