ANDARIEL
Drop was trash but on the other hand, map is quite good so lets run it a few times

Swapped merc for an holy freeze one. I want some more safety... i got zero skill point in holy shield and i feel squishhhhyyy

I did over 20 andy runs and that's pretty much the only upgrade i got
I'll probably move on.. Meph would be better for mostly everything!

Nice large charm in the sewers
One source of cold dmg is good to slow down enemy ... right?

Radament was easy. Skill up!

Had to run staff and amulet twice because my laptop froze and i lost progression... but the map stayed on so at least i knew the way
I got so scared when it froze! Task manager wouldn't open and Alt+F4 wasn't working either. I said fuck it and force laptop to turn off

Anyways, here's the staff.

The amulet

Ethereal unfortunately
Still kept it for now... i'm using a trash Ancient's Pledge so i might end up using it temporarily

Cleared to whole tomb to find it but at least i found the summoner on 2nd path

Safe and easy but a bit long...

Fetching organs was fine.

In the spider's cavern, i tele'd across a wall that i thought was far enough and ended up in the middle of a bunch of spiders...
Fortunately for me, there was no elite or champion!

Trav wasn't too scary except for THAT guy.
He took a chunk out of my life pool right before he exploded leading to a 10% health remaining

Wow... truly blessed with those map so far!

MEPHISTO

Killing him took wayyyy too much time. Won't be farmable with my actual setup.
Drop: Got a new 2nd mf ring to pair with my 26% nagel

I was now heading towards Izual to get that nice little +2 before farming Mephisto, when i saw that the knights are now Fire Immune
I guess a respec is now mandatory

Question:
I'm using Ginthers sword and i don't have anything else better for now... Should i go for Holy Shock or straight to Fanaticism with my respec?

Nevermind

I'm just going to go ahead and respec as Fanaticism because that's where i want to go afterward anyways...

I'll get some point into Holy Shield too but it probably won't give me much blocking chance with my actual trash shield. Dex isn't worth it yet... right?

Elemental zeal with slow ias > fanat w/bad weapon thru nm.
But as Mel said, you'll want to switch eventually.

Butchers is usually the time to switch to fanat. Ginthers is probably good enough for most of nm, with fanat, especially if you're farming Andy for a butchers ha.

Either way you're probably fine, it's still an early game melee char in d2, so it will be slow no matter what
