It's the first time (in ages anyways) that I play classic HC and while I cleared the game just fine CS is a bit sketchy.

I don't do enough damage to clear fast or leech enough so I have to kite mobs back and WW around the edges of the pack.
What part of my gear should I upgrade first?

Weapon: 295% Bonesnap
Helm / Boots / Body Armor: Sigons
Gloves: 3% ML 25LR 15CR 7 dex.
Belt: 24% FHR 15STR 5%LR 24%FR.
Amulet: 17 res prismatic (I know).
Ring1: 4dmg 119AR 6%LL 10%LR 6%FR
Ring2: 3%ML 15%LR 30%FR

I imagine the first thing would be to use angelics ring/amulet and swap out the sigons pieces, maybe keep boots for the res, but I have trash gear all around and no real good rares to replace these items.
Another consideration is getting a Martel, but the HCCL playerbase is super tiny right now so low chances I can find one or be able to trade for a cheap one that beats out BS anyways, I'm not even sure if I can stay safely overcapped in fire res without BS lol.

Should I just farm nightmare with some MF on and leave hell framing for groups/later?

If you find a decent bham (160+ dmg) and use sigon shield.. you can just go crazy with WW

Get a goldskin armor instead of sigons

Gg tri dura mart is all that's needed (bonus if dual leach or pskull), throw on gtoes, res/LL gloves and rings with adds, nice res armor, +2 priz ammy, res cap

Thanks that sounds like something I can do.



That's too GG for my league I think lol.

Yea u need gtoes as well instead of sigon boot

a good starter setup before getting rares is something like:

bsnap
sigon helm/gloves
goldskin
angelic ammy/ring
manald
hsarus belt/boot

Thanks both for the suggestions I'll try to get the items I'm missing.
