Hi All,

I started a Solo Playthrough and came to a standstill. I have a lvl 53 Auradin with horrible gear, this has gotten me stuck at act 5 Nightmare.

Anyone know of a good place to find exceptional weapons (to make honor or other runewords) or exceptional pally shields? (hoping to make a rhyme).

Meph and Andy runs have yielded nothing.

Bases drop best with 0% Magic Find....
I would stick with andy/meph for some Unique gear upgrades before entering Hell.

Auradin (i'm assuming holy shock / fire based?) If so then your in for a horrible treat in Hell, unfortunately.

You need levels and upgrades obviously... I would roll a good NM map for some LK running with 2 camps close to wp and then also do Pindle and shenk each run. Could wield some drops, runes, and exp

The build is trash for solo selffound. Try something else, you will instantly feel the difference.

E zealer is good, just put some crushing blow on it and you will be fine. A hammerdin it will be easy mode.

Just farm nm Andy for a butchers or headstriker then mephy for raven frost. Or if you farming on players 1 just skip Andy all together and go mephy.

If you decide to go hammer make sure you max block, farm nm Andy for viper, string and mages then in hell mode make sure you respect elites that are enchanted, extra strong, fanat or might aura.
