Yes, I know how to pull each 1v1. I don’t really struggle with Ubers as much as I do the mini Ubers, in particular Lilith and all her minions. Sometimes I pull Baal and Diablo spawns too so I have to focus on tying to kill the two of them amongst all their minions. Meph can be tricky sometimes but I usually just slap on a Tgods and conviction instead of Fanta and it’s no problem.

Like I said the main problem is getting to Lilith and facing her alone without having to clear everything. Other two are pretty straight forward. And if I pull Baal correctly after I kill Meph, the rest is easy using pretty much the same gear I started with, only with some tweaks everyone’s suggested in this thread. I’m still using exile though, haven’t gone to an elite 4sox shield or tried to switch coh for fort/enigma.


If you use enigma to teleport to Lilith you wouldn’t have to worry about being blasted by the dolls the whole walk to her. Also, coh only helps with zeal. So if you’re using smite and don’t want to use enigma, you should be wearing fort and you’ll deal more smite damage. My guidance to clear everything via zeal still stands. Exile is a pvp shield, not a pvm shield especially if you’re wearing dracs and now 20ias/10cb gloves due to having exile. Wear dungo for Lilith and swap your chest/shield and you should have an easier time. No matter what it’s tough to kill Lilith when she spawns with two champion packs next to her, just have to grind it out and get good at pulling packs out so you can kill Lilith without being hit in the back. 48fhr will also help you recover fast enough to engage life tap if you do get hit and stop attacking with max is bp, so if you don’t have that, that’s another easy fix big impact to game play

Ok if I swap out exile shield what am I looking to replace it with? 4sox diamond/um non eth elite shield? Also if I swap coh for fort, what do I do about the 35 res ill miss out on max cap. More 5res scs to make up the difference?

up'd hoz with a p diamond will make up the majority of the res, the rest you can make up with life/single res charms. Do not do a 4x pdimond 4os white shield, that is a budget build for like day 3 of ladder to try and get early torches. 15-19 life/7-10 res charms should be super cheap this point of ladder. also remember both these swaps will increase your kills speed, so how long you can survive is not as meaningful.

Ok thanks, let me try to go with fort and maybe up’d hoz and see the difference. I’ve managed to do Ubers in under 2 mins now it’s pretty easy with my current gear setup. Lilith is okay if I take my time to clear a bit before and not just rush into her
