Hello everyone!

I will be starting a challenge here soon, and would like to know which character would run through NORMAL mode the easiest in a single player Players 8 atmosphere?

Post builds too if you'd like, I will be streaming the character that has the most votes here soon!

Sorta slow gameplay though until you can get decently far.
Loved playing that char though!

you got sorc/assa to boost up dmg in the early lvl.
Then you can just easy travi while they can't.

Assassin -Fire traps
Amazon - javazon
Necromancer - Summons
Barbarian - Double swing/Frenzy
Paladin - Holy Fire
Sorceress - Fireball
Druid - Fire elemental


druid/paladin/sorc/assassin would be my top picks with TIR'd gear
Necro being Slow but safe
Barb being near the end of picks
Amazon being worst

If you’re building a hardcore holy grail character, I would imagine it’s more important to consider how effective it will be at farming end game Ilvl85 areas. Nearly any character build can coast thru normal with ease when played correctly, with the exception of odd niche builds. So it seems a far less important criteria to base your selection on.

If you will eventually be making more characters to help contribute to the grail, then it’s less important to have a high amount of versatility on your initial char, but if you’re doing a one-character-alone-finds-every-item kinda grail, then the opposite is true and it definitely needs to be one capable of farming ilvl85 areas efficiently c:
