@Ixtzalit A long time, originally I used last wish and destruction for my solo walk through of all difficulties, it was fun, though the hardest parts were the merc gear. The runewords I actually assembled after I traded a super high anni for 35 high runes. they were all jahs and bers tho. I play solo most of the time because I don't like to rush when I have a geared character.

Actually, you don't have a 95% chance to hit any of the 3. I hand calculated them all, and I got 82.82% for Uber Mephisto. 83.60% for Pandemonium Diablo. 71.92% for Uber Baal.

My point, mr. 15 minute max out is that you can't get a 95% chance at your level. Melee fighters only need 50-75% chance to hit to be effective. If your hit chance falls within all 3, you're perfectly fine on the hitting. Concentrate on damage and other factors instead. I just give my advice... :) Nevertheless, good job.

[KrazyDanProductions]

@Viper00799 I didn't say the 95% was for ubers. :P I get 95% to hit for every enemy up to 3rd baal wave. And yes that merc is required for ubers, you didn't pay attention to his gear did you? Kelpie Snare has a slow target mod of 75%. Without it I would not have been able to complete it so effortlessly.

[Viper00799]

Hey! For once someone got the attack rating right, but the merc is a no-no. 42k+ is great for ar, but no need for merc. :) Why did you need 15000 buffs by the way? >.> Enchant = good idea. Any more other than warcries = uhhhh, need some help? :) Defense is irrevelent due to the uber's level advantage (level 110! :O) Good job beating them, but no need for 15 minutes of prebuff.

[KrazyDanProductions]

@Viper00799 That MASSIVE prebuff was only done once in all the time that my barb has been in service. I felt like maxing everything. And by the way the 42k ar is WITH the merc. It is neccessary, maybe I could get it done with 70% to hit or less but I like it normally saying 95% to hit anything. As for Battle Cry - it's not the -enemy defense I'm after but the lowered enemy damage. For the few seconds until life tap casts it can be critical. I only used pots for mana. :)

[KhaZm0]

could it be worthy to switch to berserker axes and use last wish and beast, because of fanatism aura, or is grief/phase blade attackspeed too important ?

[KrazyDanProductions]

@KhaZm0 The main reason I used phase blades was to avoid the repair bill. Before I decided to use Grief, it was Last Wish and Destruction, but destruction lags too much and lacks ias bonus, however enjoyable it is to see a green volcano under meph. When I made this character I didn't rush him at all; walked him from blood moor normal to worldstone chamber hell. I didn't want to stop to repair. Original point: I have tried beast and lw axes but it was inferior, way to slow. And the repair bill :P

[Ixtzalit]

Nice vid. How many hours did you need to find all this stuff? Were you playing solo or with others?

[Viper00799]

:o.. you're serious about the walking thing? If you did that truly, you are better than 95% of the community on d2 xD!!! I would walk the whole thing, but I lose my patience eventually. However taking it in small bits, i can eventually solo :P I actually have a hammerpally in Classic d2, and it pwns :P in single player. In his 50's and doing well. :) Ohh whenever i do act 3 though it makes me sad due to how many grueling years it takes to do the stupid act!! :P Especially without sorc's teleport

[KrazyDanProductions]

@KhaZm0 Naaaa I thought about it but decided against it. There are other methods of dealing with immunes, albeit less conventional (elemental damage charms), but I really had no need for magic damage with this build. Especially in tristram all you do is scare them away and get back to business.
