Just started Diablo again, is hammerdin the way to go for all around fast clear, solo t5 heralds with mf?

I have a nova Sorc and although she’s fast I can’t seem to solo t-3+ heralds in p8

Thinking about respecing into a hammerdin

Warlock in my oppinion and that’s coming from a 20+ year veteran of Hammerdin and Sorc.
I’m on HC exclusively though so my opinion is a bit survival biased.

Echoing strikes melts P8 T5 herald, just like it melts everything else in the game.

herald hunting is essentially the same as elite sniping, so high mobility is key. should consider a barb too, since they can potentially hork sunders from herald corpses.
