That's obviously impossible. I'm not a pluggy user.

Looks like I'm playing a stab barb.

So Coldcrow has the highest chance outside of Andy Q of dropping a Gull. Run Coldcrow until one drops? I'm not sure if I want to do 900 Coldcrow runs...

Also, I love how this thread has become pick the most masochistic build.

people like interesting/suffering builds.

So do I unfortunately. I figure if I have to play slow, then I might as well have an excuse. Every walk through, I'm like why didn't I play a Novamancer or a Frost Maiden or a Blizzy or any g-d class with AoE.

For what it's worth, I'm climbing the dagger barb to A2 Normal. I have a paladin parked there as well. I may climb the Blaze sorc there. Basically I just hate A1.

Blaze sorc op vs norm diablo
Falls off vs any other fight ever

I voted for dagger baba tho gl

Would dual Fleshrippers be endgame daggers? I'm curious about the gear

Probably need at least one Fleshripper to actually beat hell Baal, but not necessarily.

Dagger gears look like this:

Ideal - Fleshripper

Very Good - Fury Fanged Knife (Jah - Gul - Eth)


Good - Elite Rare daggers with 3xx ED or Max ED + Fools

Regardless of the dagger. The build requires a lot of CB in order to bring down monsters faster in hell, and physical immunes are hard even with max berserk. The max normal damage on a Fanged Knife is 57 before modifiers. So if you get extremely lucky and find a 15 ED Sup 3os Fanged Knife to make Fury in, your max damage is still ~185. Compare that to some of the other great end game weapons.

Let's also keep in mind that the ideal and very good gear above have to be self-farmed. So you're going to have to rely on gambling and upgrading decent Exceptional Unique daggers to grind through hell.

An Up'ed Spineripper or Up'ed Heart Carver can make things a little easier. But it's a key mash, curse like a sailor, grind. Which is just the character I like after 20 years of this game.
