Two questions on UberTrist runs (which me and my nephew love doing...seems Zeal\Conviction Paly and a Hammer\Concentration Paly to tag team the Ubers is a very effective combination):
Key runs. I've heard that if you do the runs with other players your chances are better for drops. It "appears" that way but wanted to confirm. What I do is join trading games or sometimes Baal runs and go my merry way. Now saying that, I'm assuming you don't have to party to up your chances and as the players leave the game and you're alone...do you still get the increased chance of drops as if the players were still there? Certainly the monster are just as fierce.
Second question: I gearing up character's resists for Uber to reach 300% to make 75% resist all, my Conviction Paly...does his Conviction (mine is -130%) add 130% to his personal resistance as well as reduce monster resist or does the aura just plain reduce the monsters resist?
