Hello everyone,

I'm currently leveling a paladin in classic, and I have an issue with the maggot lair, the hammers are crashing on the walls and so i can't really kill the monsters.
In LOD the solution is just to buy a wand with teleport charges and the problem is resolved since i can go directly to the boss, but this solution isn't possible in classic.

Is there any tips to make the hammerdin playable in this area in classic ?

Thanks in advance

Unless moving ~north-west-ish, where hammers spawn, little else to do than to use town portals to reposition merc to the enemies, and equip sword+shield and help him out. Or maybe even a bow and attack from behind. Paladins and bows go remarkably well together. If you use concentration as well, that boosts damage.

Put hammer on your left click. Hold down left click and use shift key to switch between move and attack. If you hold your cursor past the monster, press shift to cast, unpress shift to move. Usually you will eventually overlap the monster and the hammer will hit, regardless of direction of travel. It still sucks and slow and sometimes youll have to move back and forth to make it work. Bring mana potions. Good luck.
