I was wondering if anyone knew any good bosses or areas to farm on nightmare?

Haven't played this game in 20 billion years and have no idea what im doing.,

I just beat NM and im struggling on hell currently (Have a summon necro with shite gear)

Is there any bosses worth farming on NM that drop anything useful or should I just keep getting my cheeks clapped on Hell?

assuming you have a decent corpse explosion and are level 70 or higher, then you should be able to walk hell even with shitty gear. The untwinked build should be

20 skeleton mastery/20 raise skeleton
20 corpse explosion
1 amp
1 decrep
1 golem
1-5 summon resist

don't invest in mages or revives. They can be nice later if you have enigma and all the fancy gear, but not at first. Corpse explosion is the killer. Your summons are just there to shield you from mobs.

if you're underleveled, walk nightmare baal.

Quest bugged boss runs. It's the sole fastest way to farm items. Only works in d2 original as far as i know. Not d2r.

They say the quest drop is implemented either way. I hold my button on diablo runs, then switching to baal runs when the exp gain favours it.

Don't write that. Just use what you find. It's not necessary to have end game gear in order to enjoy the game. Do diabloruns and baalruns, in the respective experience gain level areas.
