Alright, this is a little competition I and a few friends have been having. Take your 85 Toon, whatever class doesn't matter, strip them naked and go to deadmines normal, barefisted and buttnaked make your way thorugh equipping gear as you get it, the aim of the game is to see how far you can get soloing using ONLY the gear that drops in dungeons.
Naturally better gear means moving further up the dungeon levels, currently i'm doing HoR in leather and plate greens and blues, couple bad epics on my DK. I highly recommend, this is actually quite fun.
