Meh, I did ubers in hc with 1,4k health, no bo, thundergod's vigor and magic damage reduced from dwarfstar or viper. I never died there. You need light absorb vs meph and extra damage reduction vs Lilith.
ok?
i mean, you can see how to make ubers on super budget gear from speedrunners, but that doesnt mean you dont want to be extra safe when playing hc
