Go off meta and play a hammerdin


Hdin is another one for me. Just simply not satisfying playing hours straight in pvm. If I had my all time favorite. It would be a tele bowazon multi shot that would rip like the old days of hex charms… but we simply don’t have enough dmg output.

The sorc gonna be very squishy


Makes sense. And part my reasoning to ask here before I go down a rabbit hole of item sourcing for a character that can’t solo p8 herald lvl 5.

Need to know both sides. What’s fun to play and what can actually get the job done. And with current state of d2r what is actually possible?

Are the new sunders and ancient jewels enough dmg output to not get wrecked in very tough tzs?

You want a character with high damage and leach. Ideally that uses a skill that hits multiple monsters.

It’s really just a simple as that.

It’s almost like I already said warlock, mosaic or to a lesser extent smiter.

Weird.

Javazon has the leech. Has the dmg. Has the clear power for bosses with CS.

Tele speed might make solo farming entire acts a bit harder but it’s satisfying to play.

I need to either get some game play or insight from someone playing the build. To make things end game and OP is quite a bit of fg investment involved now.

Part of me wants to go necro.

Not warlock man. ES is kind of wack to me. It’s getting tedious and boring to look at and not satisfying what so ever. I rather blind myself with mosaic for 18 hrs straight.

~8% on ~250 average damage when accounting to leach effecticensss in hell / vs certain monsters isn’t anything meanginful

For the first time the devs introduced a monster class that can actually kill you. The best way to think about it is they are harder than Ubers but also spawn with random stats where Ubers always have the same, so it’s easy to prepare for.

Warlock mosaic
Smiter
Then way below is virtually everything else
