Awesome, congratulations.
Roguelikes and hardcore modes make game experiences much more intense. Great fun.
Main Hero: Mazey - level 50 + 1 fire/fire/fire blaster.

What a great idea!

I have read the Iron Eagles thread for awhile now.
Always admired the thought and it helped me decide to do it.
My hat is off to you guys for I know how tough it is to do that.

Permadeath toons are buggers. It's Hardcore Mode from Diablo. It's like walking on eggshells. 
That's awesome and impressive.

That made me chuckle. At least it was level 1.

And you did it coming through Praetoria. Bonus points for added difficulty at the low levels.
Impressive and crazy both.

My 50s:
Tigra Swipe (BS/SR/Dark Scrapper)
Galena Storm (Emp/Ele/Ele Defender)
Master Tolarin (Psi/Fire/Force Blaster)
I could never accomplish this. At some point I would get brave beyond my means and blow the whole deal.
Awesome job. I commend you, Quan Tee Fii XXI. You are a truly awesome hero.
Black Pebble,
The final Quan Tee Fii was a Dark Melee/Will Power Brute. I went for max survivablity by the time #21 came around.
The self heal coupled with the Regen allowed me to handle solo +0 * 2 with ease, *3 with caution, * 4 with some nail biting involved.
I also teamed a lot with the guys and we usually ended up around *8 but then again, we usually ended up dead that way too
I went through:
Blasters
Scrappers
Brutes
Dominators
Controllers
Finally settled on the DM/WP brute for the win

Any combo played Hardcore ( 1 death = delete ) to level 50 is commendable. |

Random pick up teams with your hardcore character can be harrowing.

Great game while it lasts.

If you're gonna do random pickups, make sure you can handle x8 by yourself, and tempt the leader into not raising the difficulty.

Farthest I ever got on a character without a defeat was an Invul/Warmace Tank who made it to level 37 before the Envoy of Shadows took her down one-on-one. It was really fun, because whenever I was playing her after that, I never turned down an opportunity to fight him again, just because.
Hello everyone,
Awhile ago I started a project with a few friends. It was called the No Die project.
Premise is simple. If your character suffers a defeat of any kind for any reason, you have to delete and start over from level 1.
Attempts were marked by adding a number after your name.
Case in point is the one character among us who made it to level 50 without suffering a single defeat!
Quan Tee Fii XXI
He had suffered through twenty previous attempts but lucky number 21 was it!
Note that within the yellow circle below damage taken and healing others, there is NO hint of having had to repay any debt!
