I generally just make "Baal for quest" games. Average is about 3 such
games to get someone that actually wants the quest and doesn't skip
out after the minions. And if everyone does skip out, well, even
normal Baal can drop some sweet items.
Though it's not too uncommon to have people ask if they can join the
rush through the next difficulty level. It doesn't really slow me
down so I generally do as "payment" for them getting my mule past
Baal.
Hell I usually stop at the Forge, though now I've got the Call To Arms
my sorc can tele in, pop the seals and just kill the bosses with a
reasonable chance of success and without taking forever by clearing
everything on the way in.
