I can give you an easy strat but that requires a lot of time playing atleast at the beggining of ladder. First Char is nova sorceress. Basicly u get fcr gear, the only problem is a monarch. You level up and start runing keys, with 105% fcr, insgiht merc u can easiy run all 3 key areas. Than you sell keys, or make paladin with budget gear to run ubers. You get rich by selling keys or torches, this works 1-2 weeks into ladder, by that time time prices level off, and you can afford all the gear you need to what ever basicly. Trapsin is very slow for that, trapsin might be better for hell cows players 1, but its like 10 min a run, so unless is rng is on your side you wont make much. Once you have the fg, the best char is Nova with top gear, pvm.

Interesting GG I usually try for full Iratha myself

I think Frozen Orb and Meteor Hybrid is still Queen of Ladder! So powerful and so easily geared, - minus cold resists and 1 point static down all monsters!

Hydra instead of meteor.. much easier to use. Meteor misses half of the time and is a bitch to aim, especially in hell when monsters move much faster.

Wow thanks! I will do that!!! Hydra damage will suffer though, I’m doing 40 to 45 pt for frozen orb/ice bolt cold mastery. By lvl 80 I will have 92 skills to use, maybe 45 points for max hydra, fireball, n fire mastery.

Hydra only gets 3% bonus from fire ball but I think fire mastery increases damage by 8%? Would max out fire mastery be better than max out fireball to boost hydra?

Yes. I think i remember hydra and fire mastery increases hydra damage about the same. But better to max those two and then focus on 1 other element.
