I use a blizzer for everything except pits, trav, shank, eldritch and countess.

I am looking for a character mainly for Trav and then to do Eldritch, Shenk and Pindle. I like that a zero, frenzy, concentrate or WW baba would have find item. But a sealer sounds cooler and right now I have a din a lot closer to leveled.

One other option is to respec sorc to lightning and use infinity merc. Will that break trav immunes?

The route I chose will determine whether I make Infinity or whether I make Grief and Fortitude or Enigma.

I love Blizz sorc for MF, so I would prefer to make a din or baba, but I'm interested in what you have to say.

I added couple other options.

Is this on btnet or singleplayer

For btnet id say light sorc or java would be solid options
And yes infinity would break imunities

For singleplayer barb most likely since it can smash through game easily and be real effective in short distance runs such as the ones u mentioned where teleport is not essential

Single player. Plus doing Trav and the SU trio in a5 wouldn't really require tele anyway I guess. Although I would probably do other stuff, but I'll have a static map.

I'm mainly torn between zealdin pr a zerk/frenzy or ww baba. If it wasn't for item find, I prolly would go zealdin. Either way I guess I can make Grief PB and Fortitude with the HRs I've accumulated from LK runs and then swap between barb and din eventually.

Honestly, I know you throw that out for everything, but this is the correct answer lol

Hdin with low cost items can easily run all of these, safely.

Hybrid fire/cold sorceress.

And you can use her to farm every place, with good efficiency (better than anything else in my experience).

Pure blizz can farm anywhere other than pits and countess faster though.

I guess I am more interested in knowing what the best melee mfer would be. I do realize hdin is good, but I'm not interested in playing one. Did enough of them in old patches and they aren't as good anymore.

I did not know Infinity broke trav's cold immune Bmar. Good to know, although I made a Grief since I posted this, so I definitely am going melee and Infinity will be far away for awhile.

I am definitely torn between frenzy barb and zealdin. Or frenzy with ww and zerk.

Blizzard is generally slower than hybrid.

Frenzy runs faster. If you're making an Enigma build, then it's more or less the same speed (still, barbarian teleports a lot faster).
Assuming your zealot can manage physical immuned, like frenzy do with berserk. Dream zealot competes with any other melee.
