what do you reckon would need to be essential build and itemization before starting hell difficulty?
atm on level 77, tried Hell but it's fucking struggle....I don't have Titan's yet, after 900 meph runs but I'm not sure if Titan's would be such a HUGE gamechanger.
Have a feeling something else is missing?

Current build is as written down:

Rare Ceremonial Javelin - 2 Javelin and Spear skills, 43ED, fools. (throw damage 25-115, damage 25-88)
Moser's x2 PDiamong (Rhyme stashed up)
Duriel's Shell
x2 Nagelring
War Traveler's
Rare Gauntlets: 1 Javelin and Spear, hp/mana leech, 15 LR, 9MF
Valkyrie Wing
Cat's Eye
Razortail

Merc:

Shaftstop (Guardian Angel stashed in areas where Res is needed)
Guillaume's Face
Spike of Honor (Stashed Insight in low base, but got no mana issues so I'm not using it)


My stats:

I am currently lvl 83 in hell A3, up to LK waypoint.

It was fairly easy progressing as a full cs zon but I had found titans in NM which did make a huge difference imo.

I however do have about 19 points into valk which helps a lot with light immunes but i really just try and outrun them as much as possible.

+ I have a lower resist wand on switch

I'd spend some time shopping for some better gloves (3/20 best case scenario) and a +3 skill harpoon which is the same speed as ceremonial javs. As well as a lower res wand for swap.

titans will make a huge difference. i farmed for titans until 91.5 on my zon, makes it so much easier
putting skill points into valk is worth doing imo
also looks to me you need more ias?

Javazon trough hell is a struggle. I have done it a few times untwinkled. I have used three different ways to handle LI's. First was plague javelins. Second was an upped titans that delivered enough physical damage to be effective. Third time I used a bow on switch with freezing arrow. Great fun either way.

You need some DR or youre gonna get smashed, zons are the worst when you get locked in dodge/block in a mob.

very true

Thanks guys.
Yeah, I have Lower Resi Wand which I use for progression, otherwise I use Harmony for re-runs.
Guess I'll need to farm dem Titans before moving on and perhaps buying better gloves. Quite unsure what is my best bet to buy them on Nightmare?

I'd recommend farming a lem, and making a treachery for yourself. 45 ias is very dope, and makes it fairly easy for you to reach ias breakpoints, while giving more protection than Duriel's ( I think!)

Not sure if anya can sell 3/20 gloves or not in NM, maybe try gambling?

You could also try and find raw dmg javs instead of + skill if you are unable to get titans or strokes
