Hey there, i know it might come off wrong, but its fun for me and im scratching a 20y/o itch with that. So, i remade my first char ever in D2 and buying him all the nice things i could never have back then, and even upping it with some recent developments.

So btm i have Hans and Ulf running arround frenzying everything in their path. I still got some fg left, so im looking to get them even more ludicrous.

My Player Char is dual wielding Griefs, wearing a Forti, Arreat with a yellow 38ed and some more stats, and the usual Stuff (SoE, BK,DL-Ring, LoH,Highlords) while Ulf has a Grief and LW while having matching Etheral outfits (Arreat/Cham & Forti). Torch, Anni and CHarms are coverd.

Would there be any upgrade to either? I´ve tried enigma, but i cant teleport without a high FCR, i get instantly oom and end up dying. (Dont ask, im old and stupid).

Love it, I did the same thing with my Necro, as I was never able to afford anything nice 20 years ago!

I don't think there's a lot of upgrades to make, other than your inventory. You could, however, consider enigma +hoto/hoto or hoto/spirit on switch to teleport around without having to worry too much about Mana / dying (especially with the spirit on swap)

I don't know if giving your Merc a beast would do you any good maybe? Alternatively, an act 2 might merc with Forti, concentration-aura weapon, andariels would be cool

Ah, sorry i understood that you had two different barbs, instead of your barb and barb merc :rofl:
You can use a lawbringer so you get decrepify.
Also go with the classic act 2 merc might aura with reapers toll or pride.
