you wont be able to use a summoner since Skeletons have a capped AR of 2 in normal, 3 in nightmare and 4 in hell. Lol..what were the devs thinking? They do excellent dmg, something like 52-55 w/maxed Mastery and Raise skeleton(by Classic standards, really nice)and you can ahve what, 25 of them?(55x20= 1375 avg

)Problem is, they cant hit ANYTHING. Enchant only gives pure fire damage , no attack rating boost. Yeah you could have a paladin with Blessed aim or Fanat to supplement them ar, but it will give them roughly...30 ar. so what, 35 ar against thousands of defence of hell monsters? Plus the go-to aura is Conc for dmg or Thorns

Granted you can use the mages, since spells dont have hit chance %, and there is always that innate 5% chance to hit no matter what so its possible even without auras[this is a 1 player WT afterall]. Also you can make a Iron golem out of a hard-hitting 1h weapon, that could boost your damage as well.

Dont get me wrong , they do excellent dmg...2 sojs/sigon shield/wormskull/3 raise skele/3 mastery wand...like what, +10 all skills? But you are going to need ALOT of gold to gamble for all that.
Probably a breeze in Normal and doable NM but in Hell you will suffer. Greatly.

oh and the glitch where your minions disappear, not being able to go through them..maggot lair/arcane sanc say hi. You cant control them like in Expansion with teleport charges/enigma, they just kinda do their own thing like trash mobs

Well done. An excellent read!

Exactly. At the end of Act 1 you will already realize that skellies can barely do anything. And you can not control them without teleport (in case of boss fights you can tp up and back to gather them at one point, but they are unable to do damage due to the lack of AR).

Let the cow slaughter begin!

First kill, 5 uniques dropped!



Unfortunately all of them were sold to Charsi.

Tearhaunch.

Fun Fact
FRW on unique boots was broken back then (did not applied). Anyway rare boots were much better in those days.



Culwen's, the AllSkill sword. Was quite popular before Expansion.

It's raining uniques today.







Fun Fact
I got failed unique Bone Helm because I still keep Wormskull in my stash. This is a great tactics e.g. for Barbarians, if they want to obtain a 5x dura weapon (WW eats durability).

Dual leech BH. I wish the ED was higher.



Tons of "ring patterns". Sadly all of them were crap.



Another 5 unique drop. The ring is nice.

A nice caster helm:



Good old Patriarch:



Another ring.

An idea:



Muled my two SoJs, let's see if I can get a third one!

Of course I can!



And it has a matching skin, even better!

Another all-resist beauty:



Muled back 2 SoJs.



T4T.

Last two runs.

WW-barbs know that this weapon shall always have room in the stash.



Unique War Boots. They had potential.



That's all for today, thanks for reading!
