Well, this fellow is no longer untwinked, but still self found and he’s closer to running Ubers.
Following the fantastic
guide @Excalibur put together, I made Grief, Fortitude, Exile, and Call to Arms with the runes I’ve accrued over the past weeks.
(Video and Screenshots in IFT.)
The rest of gear is as the guide describes, with the exception of gloves and amulet. I haven’t got a Mara’s or Steelrends. For the amulet I’m using Highlord’s. The gloves are crafted; 5% ll, 10% CB, +16 life, 18% FR and some MF. I do lose the enhanced damage from Steelrends, but keep the crushing blow and save ~40 points I’d have to put into Strength. That may be a better option for me at the moment since my CTA is a pretty low roll.
As far as skills, I have put 3 points into Zeal to get 5 hits to deal with mobs and enable him to run some other areas.
Skill set up so far is:
-1 point Smite
-Max Holy Shield
-3 points Zeal
-1 point Salvation
-Max Fanaticism
-Enough points in Resist Lightning for 95% resist
I have a huge load of points left over and can still run Baal very comfortably. Even when completely mobbed the guy seems nearly invincible. I’ve run some calculations and points in Zeal/Sacrifice does surprisingly little for damage, so I’ll probably play him for a bit to get used to things and decide how I want to distribute the remaining points among Smite, Resist Fire, and other useful auras.
