Smiter 100%


You have most of the gear to build one. Just grab a life tap wand in place of Drac’s until you find them. Roll a black flail or use Heaven’s Light as your weapon if you have one sitting on a mule. Can buff yourself ahead of entering portals with a treachery if needed for res and dr

Lilith will be your toughest match, depending on the map you roll in Matron’s Den. Just have nice poison res, DR, block for Lilith, and try not to be amp’d

Izzy is usually easy and Duriel is easy

For Meph in Trist you’ll want to make sure you hit 310 light res and high cold res for frost novas.
You won’t need to worry about immunes. Uber Baal will have some wraiths/specters around but no need to worry about them.

MAKE SURE YOU /players 1

I accidentally left my players on 5 the first time I went to do Ubers in single player and got absolutely wrecked and couldn’t figure out why until… lol

Just make a smiter. Paladins are easy to level in single player then you’ll have a very efficient character you can do budget Ubers with

I forgot the fun Paladin build.

Zeal / Smite Conviction Aura build. I don't know what you guys call the build.

2x Dream (ST with max All Res, or Vortex, but prefer ST)
... Max out Lightning Res (no other res skills, just 1 base) because you are only interested in Lightning damage.

20 Zeal (pretty much slowly add to this, like concentrate on other skills after adding 4 points first, then 5 at a time at higher levels)
20 Conviction
20 Light Res
20 Holy Shield (actually, if I remember correctly, if you have 124 dex or more, you shouldn't need to max this, check the Character screen for defense / block or something to that effect, think you max out early with +skill gear you use)
01 Pre Req
?? Up smite with left over points, but ensure 1 base point (damn been a long time building this)

Enigma of some type
Griefpb ... why not, the ADDED damage does the trick
2x Raven (AR & Dex is good to have)
Maras or Highlords... depends if you have the IAS bp reached.
Gloves... the one that triggers Life Tap
Belt... Demon??? ... the one with Life Leech and some phy dmg reduction
Boots... ahh, War travs... a little bit more added damage here

Switch ... Griefpb + Exile (ST pref)


I actually forgot my old setup, of course life tap wand inventory... was fun on SP P8 running around (LoD)... it is not the best build, but just fun.

I have ber and sur and im gonna laugh if i get infinity before a torch

Um, my post was that the Paladin uses the Conviction Aura, you don't need an Infinity.

Unless you were talking to someone else.
