looking for some advice for my w/t found here: https://forums.d2jsp.org/topic.php?t=79763433&f=161

I'm wondering how close I am to killing ubers/what would be needed in terms of gear.
I think below is the best gear I could scrounge up (without additonal mfing)

Guill
maras
up'd titans
forti or treach
soe
storm (can socket w/pdia)
raven
dual leach ring
gobs

merc could be A2 merc with vamp, treach, obedience or hone OR A1 faith merc

I could restat to max jab, valk, crit, and then maybe LF/CS for clearing (i learned no dodge/avoid/evade from iwichs zon)
My question is, do I have what it takes to do pre-ubers/uber trist? I think the only way my AR is OK for jab is with A1 faith merc, but I'm not sure she would survive (esp vs lilith)
also I could make passion, but i think jab is probably better

Any suggestions?

Im not sure on build but pretty confident to say merc doesnt matter, hes gonna get rekt 100%. So dont rely on him either for ur build

some tips in there id imagine
he swaps gear around 15:40 if you want to see gear

I don’t see gloves, never did Ubers with a javazon but like all melee builds you’ll need Life Tap, so Dracs

Beast on swap --> turn into bear and win

That is a big concern that she won't last, therefore no fanat, therefore no AR

I'll check it out when I get home

Forgot to list em
I can use dracs or lifetap on switcc and use loh

It's SP so no random beast but maybe long-term I can make one

try:
treachery (get prebuff then go to fort or chains of honor)
and one angelic ring with amulet

worried you won't have the proper AR
also life tap wand to start the fight and hope you have enough AR for dracs to proc

didn't feel like farming a demon limb or angelics, but realized I could use merc's obedience for a quick kill and that gives me 10 minutes lvl 20 enchant
as for lifetap, good plan, i will start with wand then let dracs do some work

this would solve AR problem and nn A1 merc w fanat, but that said, I'm wondering if she'd survive because she tries to keep her distance
fanat would definitely help

If you can somehow keep your a1 merc far away with fana that will of course boost your odds. Just a long shot. (Literally lol)

You could also experiment with an a2 blessed aim merc with:
some crushing blow
Treachery proc fade then switch to something with DR maybe leviathan


You definitely have some options but all are going to be a tough

A2 blessed aim:
Guillame
Treachery (fade) -> leviathan/shaft stop
Ebotd Pike

Just a thought

You're doing it on single player so it's going to be incredibly easy. You could do it with garbage budget gear.
