duely noted.
that said, what would your gear have to be like to be able to clear hell trav efficiently? obv not bis, but like the minimum to not die.

true, but d2r has no games/hr restrictions afaik. start a4 > wp to trav > run/tele to council > kill in 5-10 secs > hork > grab loot > tp > a4 wp > repeat.

that might be faster done 3x than 1x hell run if ur gear isnt good.

if u did it in d2 classic ud get r/d in like no time flat lol

depend if realm down exist in d2r or not?
if you can make a lot of 30sec games i'd go with dual griefs pb - nothing can beat that becouse of additional % dmg to demons, also 10max/ar/40eg charms are very demanded. Its definitely the fastest build for killing travi, but this might be hard to get early in d2r

for beggining i'd start with leap and merc killing build - easy and cheap

if theres no restrictions with games per hour your way is definitely best option for early d2r goldfind

i havent heard of any, and talked to a guy who claimed he 1-15'd 5 chars in a row in trist games. but maybe there is some insanely high number restriction idk

ye, no way thatd be possible for now. Lo runes go for 2000+ fg right now.
maybe itd be a better idea to dual wield the unique ettin axe or something and just do fast nm runs like snipa suggested.

there is no realm down / game cap in d2r. i can spam 30 sec runs infinitely and it wont ever lock me out.

then i'd go as snipa said - fast nm games, later when being able to dual grief - same runs but on hell. Dual griefs kill them rly fast on players 1

I always just did the merc killing warcry build.

As long as you have sufficient fire res and light res for lighting enchanted you can use all the %gf gear you can stack. I mean even lem runes are somewhat a premium right now.

dwarf star x2, crown of thievesx2, 2x wealth armor, gold wrap or rare belt with res gf%, rare gloves/boots with res and gf or chance/infernos. nokozan/saracens or rare amulet. 2x ali baba sword. gheeds charm and as many 40% and 10% gf charms you can muster.

Could just use bonehew (eth) or insight or whatever decent polearm on them for now. That would be the super scrub early version I'd shoot for

try out leap, WC stuns for a bit longer, but doesnt do shit for dmg. leap doesnt do shit for dmg either, but stuns everything within like 2 screens if u pump it. shit's insane. also then bodies spread out and u wont miss a hork because they're dogpiled.

both work fine i just prefer leap, and i made wc barbs for years.

oops yeah that's the build I'd play but I'd put whatever extra points into random warcries to spam like taunt or battle cry to feel like I was doing something even though I'd probably be better off to just leap the entire time more or less.
