7. StrategyDescription: This build is simply less expensive compared to a smiter, and if you follow it, quicker than a smiter in ubers. From my experience with smiters and with my uberwolf, the uberwolf was 5x times faster, and about half the cost.
Goal: We want to be able to reach 5k damage with fury, and have about 5k life, without a torch being used, we also want as much fhr, cb, ow, ll, res and ds. But the ultimate goal, is to uber solo, which is achievable.
Gear: There aren’t many variant gear choices here, in most cases, the best item is also the cheapest
***Weapon:Ohm’d Up’d Ribcracker
it’s the best from my experience, explained below
Shield: No shield is needed as Ribcraker is 2handed(staff)
Armor: CoH
I use a wire fleece, really anything that gets you over 800def is good (keep strength req down though)
Gives you res, +2 skills, damage to demons, damage to undead, +more
Head: Um’d Jalal’s
best s/s druid helm, fhr and res + the skills
Gloves: Draculs Grasp
best you can get, ow & ll
Boots: Gore Riders
cb, ds, ow
***Belt: verdungos & thunder gods
Dungos gives you some pretty useful mods life rep, vitality, fhr and damage reduction
Amulet: Highlord's
gets light res +1 skill and ias
Ring1: Ravenfrost
good ar and dex
***Ring2: ravenfrost & wisp & carrion
Switch: Cta + Spirit
***No Torch
Anni
x9 s/s GCs
This is how your set-up should look like
you will have to switch on tgods and 1 wisp for mephisto and you have to switch off a raven for carrion against lilith, the gears res by itself just isn’t enough for specific elements, but if you switch to the right res/sorb it fixes this problem, you MUST keep one raven on at all times!
You will not be using a torch for the fact that it is not necessary and it leaves room for the unidentified torch
The reason why I find ribcracker>etomb is that it has more of the stuff we are looking for, you are getting 50% more crushing blow & 50%fhr
Skills:20 Werewolf
20 Lycanthropy
20 Fury
20 Oak Sage
1 Carrion Vine
1 into all of cyclone armor synergies
Rest into cyclone armor
Carrion vine will give you replenished life for each corpse it eats, and this is benifited by the fact that fury is like zeal, killing monsters you aren’t even targeting and giving you health
Werewolf and lycanthropy are obvious, you need to transform and lycanthropy gives bonuses
Oak sage gives you a lot of extra life, which helps you
Stats:Strength-base enough for gear
Dexterity-none
Vitality-Rest
Energy-none
I don’t like glitching strength because my ribcracker poofed once while glitching on ladder, but its your choice
One raven is enough to get ribcracker on, and raven doesn’t require anything but level req
Every last stat point in here can help a lot, because of the fact that bo is upping your life a lot and wolf form too
Mana is only a problem with manaburn, which is gonna affect you either way, health is more important
Prebuffing: this can be tricky, but I’ve found that there is only one way to do this. As you will not gain any skills from ribcracker, you will use spirit/CTA to cast cyclone armor, summons & transforming
heres what you do
1. start in human form
2. cast bc then bo
3. cast spirit & vine
4. cast bo again for your spirit
5. transform into wolf
6. switch to ribcracker
Left click-Fury
Right click
F1-bc
F2-bo
F3-cyclone armor
F4-carrion vine
F5-oak sage
F6-Werewolf
F7-Tps
I organized them like that for easy casting while prebuffing
Strategy:I don’t usually have a strategy while doing ubers, I go in the portal an kill the first uber I see, but killing mephisto first really helps keep the monsters to a minimum, killing baal next can shorten the time frame in certain cases, the longer you leave him the longer he has to clone himself.
Killing is easy, just prebuff, go in, namelock and wait til they die, then move to the next uber.
For Mini-Ubers, it is extremely easy, as your main skill fury, is similar to zeal, and will kill mobs quickly.
Hope this guide helps, and if you don’t like him, its an easy switch to a smiter (even though I prefer this)
Time Frames:Uber Duriel: 30secs-1min
Lilith: 40secs-1:30mins
Uber Izual:15secs-30secs (easiest)
Uber Diablo:1min-1:30mins
Uber Mephisto:15secs-1:30mins
Uber Baal:45secs-1:20mins
The way I have done this is from first hit to last hit
I have put my fastest time to my slowest time
Uber Mephisto was killed in 15secs because I think the game got lagged and glitched somehow, his health went down unusually quick and I wouldn’t guarantee this kind of speed, these are also estimated times by a friend in game who timed (he was not helping)
any question please let me know
i know i reposted this guide but its edited and better
